I was wondering if more work was going to be done to have the daemon code call back to the backend code to get things like hibernate and suspend commands, swap details, etc.? I think that makes a lot of sense. Maybe a backend specific object, with properties kernelcansuspend, kernelcanhibernate, hibernatehasswapspace, hibernatehasencryptedswap and methods of suspend and hibernate.

There are also some Linux-specific bits in dkp-qos.c. I haven't looked at that code carefully yet, though. What do those two latency /dev entries provide exactly? Maybe I can find equivalents on FreeBSD.

I'll work on something like this after I'm back from Christmas, unless you get to it first. In the meantime, feel free to commit your work-in-progress freebsd specific parts to src/freebsd

I took a stab at this in the FreeBSD backend. I essentially made the dkp-daemon.c methods wrappers around backend methods. It sounds like you're going to go a slightly different route, though.
