	    cpu_sup should use native sysctl/libkvm calls on BSD</p>
          <p>
	    This avoids forking off with os:cmd every time we just
	    want to collect the load averages. riak does this every
	    second, which results in a lot of unnecessary load.</p>

	    DragonFly was partially supported by os_mon already but
	    when trying to start the os_mon application it'd crash
	    with an error about an unknown operating system in
	    memsup. This patch changes memsup to use the FreeBSD
	    sysctl method to get memory information when on
	    DragonFly. (Thanks to Andrew Thompson )</p>

    <title>OS_Mon 2.0</title>
    <p>A note on backwards compatibility: The behaviour of OS_Mon 2.0 is
      backwards compatible under normal operation, but has changed
      somewhat in error situations: The services do not terminate
      and the API functions do not raise exceptions in all cases where
      they did before. Also, in the case where a service does terminate,
      the exit reason may be different. See below for details.</p>

            will no longer result in an exception. Instead a warning

          <p>The entire OS_Mon application (code and documentation)
            has been reviewed and consequently updated with the goal
            to make the application more robust, homogeneous and
            easier to configure.</p>
          <p>The behaviour under normal operation is backwards
            compatible. However, recoverable errors now no longer
            terminate the affected service (and thus possible the
            entire application), instead <c>error_logger</c> is used
            to warn the user if/when such errors occurs. Also, in the
            case of unrecoverable errors, the services have been made
            more homogeneous with respect to behavior and exit
            reasons. See below for more information and refer to the
            man pages for details.</p>
          <p>Port handling has been unified, meaning that if a port
            program sends garbage or unexpectedly dies, this is now
            handled the same way by all OS_Mon services, namely
            immediate process termination with the exit reason
            <c>{port_error,Garbage}</c> or <c>{port_died,Reason}</c>,
            respectively.</p>
          <p>Application configuration parameter handling has been
            unified. Bad parameter values are no longer silently
            ignored (<c>disksup</c>) or cause application termination
            (<c>memsup</c>, <c>os_sup</c>). Instead a warning is
            issued and the default value for the parameter is used.
            Also, some cases where a bad parameter value accidentally
            could be accepted have been corrected.</p>
          <p>Message handling has been unified. Unknown
            (<c>gen_server-</c>) calls cause process termination,
            whereas unknown casts and messages are now ignored by all
            OS_Mon services.</p>

        <item>
          <p>The following changes have been made to the <c>os_sup</c>
            service:</p>
          <p>It is now available on Windows, using <c>nteventlog</c>
            as backend.</p>
          <p>On Solaris, enabling the service (that is, installing a
            new configuration file for <c>syslogd</c> etc.) can now
            be done outside the <c>os_sup</c> process. The reason for
            this is that the Erlang emulator should normally not be
            run with <c>root</c> privileges, as is otherwise
            required. The new application configuration parameter
            <c>os_sup_config</c> must be set to <c>false</c>.</p>
          <p>Also, <c>os_sup</c> can now be configured using a new
            configuration parameter <c>os_sup_mfa</c> to call an
            arbitrary Erlang function when a message is received from
            the OS.</p>

          <p>The <c>memsup</c> service has been rewritten, replacing
            the supervised <c>memsup_helper</c> with a linked help
            process. This gives the <c>memsup</c> process more
            control and prevents a situation where it gets out of
            synch with the received memory data and thus possibly
            returns erroneous results.</p>
