NAK - this feature is actively used and can be set by the sysctl
interface. The PRCTL fixup was just a bug being fixed. The sysctl
interface is still relevant.

Thank you for correcting me. Appreciated. I am not aware that it is still
being actively used. May I know who or which program is using this feature?

Thanks,
Eugene
