Filesystem midlayer improvements:

--- 134,140 ----

Filesystem midlayer improvements:

fix internal locking in (still experimental!) NFTS.

*************** *** 209,214 **** --- 209,235 ----

SCSI improvements: +

better cd(4) detaching. +
better st(4) sense data and buf handling. +
eliminate excessive delays when starting DVD playing. +
ask only for minimal (i.e. 18 bytes) sense data, fixing usb devices. +
migrate to using bufq. +
always try READ CAPACITY 16 on devices claiming to be SCSI-3. +
many performance and reliability improvements as a result of new SCSI midlayer: +
- eliminate many unnecessary splbio/splx calls in SCSI drivers. +
- eliminate many use after free's exposed by new SCSI midlayer. +
- eliminate scsi_scsi_cmd(), simplifying calling inside SCSI midlayer. +
- eliminate struct scsi_device. +
- eliminate many uninitialized data references and invalid scsi_done() calls exposed by new SCSI midlayer. +
- eliminate use of EAGAIN. +
- eliminate almost all uses of NO_CCB and XS_NO_CCB. +
+

Assorted improvements:

mbtowc(3) multi-byte/wide-character conversion functions *************** *** 267,272 **** --- 288,305 ---- socppc and macppc platforms were switched over to gcc4. +
newfs(8) now makes FFS2 the default for partitions larger than INT_MAX blocks. +
dhcpd(8) now includes the server id in NAK messages, as required by some + relays. +
disklabel(8) now aligns the start and end of FFS partitions on bsize boundaries where it can, to improve performance on 4096-byte block devices. +
by default, read and write caching is now turned on for non-USB scsi disks. +
getdirentries(2) now checks to ensure that it doesn't wrap or truncate directory information on architectures where LONG is a different size from LONG LONG. +
disklabel(8) now ensures correct physical bounds and disk size are used when building a disklabel from saved ascii disklabel. +
it is again possible to build a bsd.rd that has DDB. +
pms(4) now works much better with various trackpads and over suspend/resume cycles. +
fdisk(8) now aligns the OpenBSD partition on a power of 2 block boundary to improve performance on 4096-byte block devices. +
nfsd(8) now logs start up errors to the system log as well as the console. +
nfsd(8) now errors out if given an invalid number of servers to run.

*************** *** 281,286 **** --- 314,321 ---- /etc/pkg.conf `installfrom' entry to the public mirror used while installing or upgrading.

sysmerge(8) now automatically installs missing users and groups. +

Eliminate more excessively chatty remarks during install. +

Handle disk UID partitions better.
