From a kext, how can I retrieve the sysctl "kern.osrevision" using valid KPI? It doesn't seem to be recognized by sysctlbyname()...

You can't. Only certain "hw" sub-values are supported via the sysctlbyname() KPI. However, the version_* vars are exported by the LibKern kpi. Those should give you the data you need. $ nm -m /System/Library/Extensions/System.kext/PlugIns/Libkern.kext/ Libkern | grep version_ (undefined) external _version_major (undefined) external _version_minor (undefined) external _version_prerelease_level (undefined) external _version_revision (undefined) external _version_stage (undefined) external _version_variant This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
