But did you? My FreeBSD knowledge is quite outdated, I believe the last version I worked with is 7, but I believe at some point, it was possible to compile C++ kernel modules for FreeBSD. This time I can not find the proof, but plus to that post I also found links like

The last one mentions: "There's actually a fair amount of experience with people doing C++ in FreeBSD kernels. People have been doing things with it for about 8 years now."
- loeg 6y agoPeople have always played around with C++ kernel modules outside the project (e.g., https://github.com/adamlsd/libcpp.ko https://github.com/adamlsd/libcpp.ko ), but that is very different from saying the project supports C++ modules. There are no C++ kernel modules in FreeBSD itself. There is no support for C++ kernel modules in FreeBSD itself (neither build system nor source code). Developer response to C++ kernel proposals (the most recent on private internal mailing lists I cannot share) is cold.
