Change Details

This lets one interrupt DDB's output, which is useful if paging is disabled and the output device is slow. This follows a previous implementation in svn r311952 / git 5fddef79998678d256ba30316353393b4d8ebb32 which was reverted because it broke DDB type-ahead. Now, try this again, but with a type-ahead buffer. This will still result in a limit on the amount of type ahead, being the buffer size. So, this may still result in truncation of buffered input. This could effect for example pasting a large script with multiple commands into the ddb console.

Now, try this again, but with a 512-byte type-ahead buffer. While there is buffer space, control input is handled and non-control input is buffered. When the buffer is exhausted, the default is to print a warning and drop further non-control input in order to continue handling control input. sysctl debug.ddb.prioritize_control_input can be set to 0 to instead preserve all input but lose immediate handling of control input. This could for example effect pasting of a large script into the ddb console.
