Make it possible to define categories without compiling their paths into libc (important for third-party modules). The EXTERR_CATEGORY_DYNAMIC macro can be defined to a string describing the compilation unit (generally the path relative to src/sys) which takes the place of EXTERR_CATEGORY. These strings are assembled in linker sets with category numbers assigned at system startup or module load time. The strings can be retrieved from the kern.exterr.categories.<category> sysctl.

FreeBSD Source:
This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.
FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
