1.43 guenther 114: <li>Several bugs exposed by pledge(2) have been corrected, for example in <a href="http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/usr.sbin/bgpd/bgpd.c?rev=1.181&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup">bgpd(8)</a>, <a href="http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sbin/iked/config.c?rev=1.40&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup">iked(8)</a>, <a href="http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/usr.sbin/ldapd/control.c?rev=1.13&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup">ldapd(8)</a>, <a href="http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/usr.sbin/ntpd/constraint.c?rev=1.25&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup">ntpd(8)</a>, and <a href="http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/usr.sbin/syslogd/syslogd.c?rev=1.200&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup">syslogd(8)</a>,

515: <li>Code improvements:

1.17 sobrado 517: <li>Added install target for <tt>cmake</tt> builds.
518: <li>Updated <tt>pkgconfig</tt> files to correctly report the release
519: version number, not the individual library ABI version numbers.
520: <li>SSLv3 is now permanently removed from the tree.
521: <li>The <tt>libtls</tt> API is changed from the 2.2.x series:
522: <ul>
1.28 sobrado 523: <li>The
524: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_read(3)</a>

526: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_write(3)</a>
527: functions now work better with external event libraries.
528: <li>Client-side verification is now supported, with the client
529: supplying the certificate to the server.
530: <li>Also, when using
531: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_connect_fds(3)</a>,
532: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_connect_socket(3)</a>

535: <tt>libtls</tt> no longer implicitly closes the passed in sockets.
536: The caller is responsible for closing them in this case.
1.17 sobrado 537: </ul>
538: <li>New interface <tt>OPENSSL_cpu_caps</tt> is provided that does not
539: allow software to inadvertently modify cpu capability flags.
540: <tt>OPENSSL_ia32cap</tt> and <tt>OPENSSL_ia32cap_loc</tt> are removed.
1.18 sobrado 541: <li>The <tt>out_len</tt> argument of <tt>AEAD</tt> changed from

1.17 sobrado 543: <li>Deduplicated DTLS code, sharing bugfixes and improvements with TLS.
544: <li>Converted
1.28 sobrado 545: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=nc&sektion=1">nc(1)</a>
1.17 sobrado 546: to use <tt>libtls</tt> for client and server operations; it is
547: included in the libressl-portable distribution as an example of how
548: to use the <tt>libtls</tt> library. This is intended to be a simpler
549: and more robust replacement for <tt>openssl s_client</tt> and
550: <tt>openssl s_server</tt> for day-to-day operations.
551: <li>ASN.1 cleanups and RFC5280 compliance fixes.
552: <li>Time representations switched from <tt>unsigned long</tt> to
553: <tt>time_t</tt>. LibreSSL now checks if the host OS supports 64-bit
554: <tt>time_t</tt>.
555: <li>Support always extracting the peer cipher and version with
556: <tt>libtls</tt>.
557: <li>Added ability to check certificate validity times with
1.19 sobrado 558: <tt>libtls</tt>,

1.17 sobrado 566: <li>Remove broken conditional <tt>EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY</tt> code
567: (non-functional since initial commit in 2004).
1.19 sobrado 568: <li>Reject too small bits value in
1.28 sobrado 569: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=BN_generate_prime&sektion=3">BN_generate_prime_ex(3)</a>,

918: src.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src. This file
919: contains everything you need except for the kernel sources, which are
920: in a separate archive. To extract:
921: <p>
922: <ul><pre>
923: # <strong>mkdir -p /usr/src</strong>
924: # <strong>cd /usr/src</strong>
925: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</strong>
926: </pre></ul>
927: <p>
928: sys.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src/sys.
929: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
930: To extract:
931: <p>
932: <ul><pre>
933: # <strong>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</strong>
934: # <strong>cd /usr/src</strong>
935: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</strong>
936: </pre></ul>
937: <p>
938: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
939: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
940: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
941: Using these files
942: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
943: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

959: if you know nothing about ports
960: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
961: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
962: OpenBSD ports system.
963: <p>
964: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for
965: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&sektion=1&arch=i386">
966: cvs(1)</a> if
967: you aren't familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete
968: source tree, our ports tree is available via
969: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
970: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
971: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
972: with a command like:
973: <p>
974: <ul><pre>
975: # <strong>cd /usr/ports</strong>
976: # <strong>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_5_9</strong>
977: </pre></ul>
978: <p>
979: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
980: server.]
981: <p>
982: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
983: ports for the 5.9 release will be made available if problems arise.
984: <p>
985: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
986: would like to know more, the mailing list
987: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
