1.17 stsp 568: <li>Implemented RA (new 11n Tx rate adaptation) in <a
1.15 benno 569: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwm.4">iwm(4)</a> and <a
570: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwn.4">iwn(4)</a>.
571: <li>Prevented a WPA failure in <a
572: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ipw.4">ipw(4)</a> due to a state

1.1 deraadt 583: </ul>
584:
585: <li>IEEE 802.11 wireless stack improvements and bugfixes:
586: <ul>
1.5 benno 587: <li>Fixed the calculation of "maxlen" in <a
588: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwm.4">iwm(4)</a> and <a
589: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwx.4">iwx(4)</a> when there are
590: multiple MPDUs in one packet.
591: <li>Fixed 802.11 RSN capabilities announced to peers.
592: <li>Flushed the reorder buffer after gap timeout to prevent frames
593: from remaining in the buffer until the next frame is received.
594: <li>Avoided spurious "input packet decapsulations failed" errors in
595: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/netstat.1">netstat(1)</a> -W with
596: A-MSDU enabled.
1.17 stsp 597: <li>Introduced RA, a new 11n Tx rate adaptation module for net80211.
1.15 benno 598: Unlike MiRa, RA does not attempt to precisely measure actual
599: throughput but simply deducts a loss percentage from the theoretical
600: throughput which can be achieved by a given MCS.
1.1 deraadt 601: </ul>
602:
603: <li>Generic network stack improvements and bugfixes:
604: <ul>
1.10 benno 605: <li>Removed the direct ACK on every other data segment. After
606: receiving a data segment, we were sending out two ACKs, the first one
607: in tcp_input() direct after receiving and the second ACK after the
608: userland or the sosplice task read some data out of the socket buffer.
609: This change removes the ACK in tcp_input(), saving processing time and
610: improving network performance.
611: <li>Removed the maxburst feature from tcp_output().
612: <li>Added a MONITOR feature to interfaces. Packets received on these
613: interfaces do not enter the network stack for further processing. This
614: can be used to watch traffic, for example with <a
615: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bpf.4">bpf(4)</a> without risk of the packets
616: interfering with the system.
617:
618: <li>Added etherbridge, the internals of a reusable learning bridge
619: interface providing common code reusable for other drivers needing a
620: mac learning bridge.

622: Virtual Ethernet Bridge driver.
1.3 benno 623:
1.15 benno 624: <li>Added the ability to force the selection of source IP address for
625: programs that do not specify a source IP, overriding the default
626: source IP selection algorithm. This is configurable via <a
627: href="https://man.openbsd.org/route.8">route(8)</a>
628: <tt>sourceaddr</tt> command.
629:
630: <li>Bring interfaces up when autoconfiguration for inetor inet6 is
631: enabled (AUTOCONF4 or AUTOCONF6 flags).
632: <li>Adjust terminology in <a
633: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig.8">ifconfig(8)</a> to refer to
634: "temporary address extensions" rather than the former "privacy
635: extensions," including the addition of an AUTOCONF6TEMP flag (to
636: replace the negative flag "INET6_NOPRIVACY"). The autoconfprivacy
637: option if <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig.8">ifconfig(8)</a>
638: has been deprecated.
639: <li>Made it possible to disable the "autoconf" flag but keep
640: "temporary" enabled in <a
641: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig.8">ifconfig(8)</a>.
642: <li>For IPv6 addresses, added tracking of address proposal creation
643: times to be able to establish total lifetime. This information is used
644: to renew pltime/vltime of privacy addresse per RFC 4941.
1.3 benno 645:
1.15 benno 646: <li>Prevented kernel reuse of mbuf memory when generating the ICMP6
647: response to an IPv6 packet.
648: <li>Use the toeplitz hash algorithm to a flowid for tcp packets,
649: which in turn is used to choose the tx ring on network cards with
650: multiple rings.
651: <li>Fixed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/wg.4">wg(4)</a> on macppc
652: by keeping track of allowed ips pointer correctly.
653: <li>Fixed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/wg.4">wg(4)</a> ioctl to
654: handle multiple wgpeers.
655: <li>Fixed a race between tx/rx handshakes in <a
656: href="https://man.openbsd.org/wg.4">wg(4)</a>.
657: <li>Prevented a potential hang when trying to remove a <a
658: href="https://man.openbsd.org/tun.4">tun(4)</a> interface.
659: <li>Used the correct rdomain when adding and deleting routes with <a
660: href="https://man.openbsd.org/mpip.4">mpip(4)</a> and <a
661: href="https://man.openbsd.org/mpw.4">mpw(4)</a>.
662: <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig.8">ifconfig(8)</a>

674: <li>Fixed hangs on amd64 bsd.rd due to misreported core clock
675: frequency on newer Intel Comet Lake models.
1.15 benno 676: <li>Began distributing the gzip'd version of bsd.rd on all platforms
677: with boot methods supporting it.
678: <li>Fixed a problem which prevented use of <a
679: href="https://man.openbsd.org/sysupgrade.8">sysupgrade(8)</a> when an
680: interface failed to come up and <a
681: href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhclient.8">dhclient(8)</a> didn't

683: <li>Prevented <a
684: href="https://man.openbsd.org/disklabel.8">disklabel(8)</a> from
685: adjusting the swap 'b' partition size if physmem is zero to keep the
686: auto-allocate code from putting a filesystem on that partition.
687: <li>Emulate "[inet] autoconf" <a
688: href="https://man.openbsd.org/hostname.if.5">hostname.if(5)</a> lines
689: with "dhcp" so users testing <a
690: href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhcpleased.8">dhcpleased(8)</a> will
691: still be able to upgrade manually while the installer uses only <a

714: announced them.
715: <li>Introduced a send hold timer in <a
716: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a> to detect stalls on
717: the sending side of a TCP connection, acting as a last resort to
718: detect faulty peers.
719: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpctl.8">bgpctl(8)</a>
720: "show sets" to display information about the roa-set, as-sets and
721: prefix-sets loaded into <a
722: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a>.
1.10 benno 723: <li>Introduced the <a
724: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.conf.5">bgpd.conf(5)</a> per
725: neighbor and global config option "reject as-set yes/no" to allow
726: rejection of received UPDATES with AS_SET segments. These rejected
727: prefixes can be viewed with <a
728: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpctl.8">bgpctl(8)</a> "show rib in
729: error".
730: <li>Properly implemented "rde med compare strict" in <a
731: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a> and ensured that the
732: order of prefixes is always correct.
733: <li>Added RTR support to <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">OpenBGPD</a>.
734: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpctl.8">bgpctl(8)</a>
735: "show rtr" to display basic information about RTR sessions.
736: <li>Introduced <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a>
737: <code>rde evaluate all</code> to work around path hiding in IXP

1.15 benno 739: </ul>
1.10 benno 740:
1.15 benno 741: <li>The <a
742: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospfd.8">ospfd(8)</a> and <a
743: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospf6d.8">ospf6d(8)</a> routing
744: daemons saw various internal refactoring to keep the code similar to
745: changes in other routing daemons and improve maintainability.<br>
746: Additionally, support was added in <a
747: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospfd.8">ospfd(8)</a> for interfaces
748: that share the same IP.
1.10 benno 749:
1.15 benno 750: <li>The <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> packet filter and it's userland utility:
751: <ul>
752: <li>Relaxed checks in <a
753: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pfctl.8">pfctl(8)</a> and <a
754: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> to accept any valid
755: routing domain, even if it does not yet exist.
756: <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pfctl.8">pfctl(8)</a>
757: detect and reject bogus ranges before loading the ruleset to prevent a
758: panic.
759: <li>Changed route-to in <a
760: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.conf.5">pf.conf(5)</a> to send
761: packets to IPs instead of interfaces.
762: <li>Changed pf_route so <a
763: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> only runs when packets
764: enter and leave the stack. Running the same packet through pf multiple
765: times creates confusion for the state table. By default, pf states are
766: floating, meaning that packets are matched to states regardless of
767: which interface they're going over. This diff avoids multiple pf(4)
768: traversals of one packet causing confusion in the state table.
769: <li>Prevented the kernel from being stuck in an endless recursion
770: during TCP path MTU discovery when <a
771: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> changes the routing
772: table when sending packets.
773: <li>When cutting off the head of an overlapping fragment during <a
774: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> reassembly, reinserted
775: the fragment into the lookup table with the correct index.

781: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>. If 'request addr
782: 0.0.0.0' is configured, any address will be accepted.
783: <li>Make <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> accept
784: ANY dynamic address with 'request addr 0.0.0.0'.

794: "from dynamic," installing flows where "dynamic" is replaced by the
795: received dynamic IP address.
796: <li>Made sure not to replace 0.0.0.0 with a dynamic address in <a
797: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> if it is a network
798: address.
799: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> -s
800: socket option to specify a control socket.
801: <li>Used a counter instead of random IV for AES-GCM in <a
802: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>, eliminating the
803: risk of random collisions.
804: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>
805: support for multiple address pools.
806: <li>Added the <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>
807: "set stickyaddress" option, which attempts to assign the same "config
808: address" when an IKESA is negotiated with the DSTID of an existing
809: IKESA.
810: <li>Ensured rekeying of every child SA in <a
811: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>.
1.5 benno 812: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> support
813: for RSASSA-PSS signature verification (RFC 7427).
814: <li>Corrected the first packet of an <a
815: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ipsec.4">ipsec(4)</a> SA to have
816: sequence number 1.
817: <li>Accepted reject and blackhole routes for IPsec PMTU discovery.

819: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> when building
820: hosts_list.
821: <li>Prevented initiation of new additional SAs for each policy upon
822: every <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ikectl.8">ikectl(8)</a> config
823: reload.
824: <li>Fixed "any" and "dynamic" keywords for flows in <a
825: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> and added proper
826: IPv6 support.
1.9 benno 827: <li>Created a path MTU host route for <a
828: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ipsec.4">IPsec(4)</a> over IPv6.
1.10 benno 829: <li>Added support for INVALID_KE_PAYLOAD in <a
830: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> CREATE_CHILD_SA
831: exchange.

833: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>.
834: <li>Fixed path MTU discovery for ESP tunnels in IPv6.
835: <li>Upgraded to OpenSSL 1.1 compatible crypto API in <a
836: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>.
837: <li>Added an optional "group none" transform for child SAs in <a

1458: If you already have an OpenBSD 6.7 system, and do not want to reinstall,
1459: upgrade instructions and advice can be found in the
1460: <a href="faq/upgrade69.html">Upgrade Guide</a>.

1466: <h3>Notes about the source code</h3>
1467: <p>
1468: <code>src.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src</code>.
1469: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
1470: which are in a separate archive.
1471: To extract:
1472: <blockquote><pre>
1473: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src</kbd>
1474: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
1475: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</kbd>
1476: </pre></blockquote>
1477: <p>
1478: <code>sys.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src/sys</code>.
1479: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
1480: To extract:
1481: <blockquote><pre>
1482: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</kbd>
1483: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
1484: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</kbd>
1485: </pre></blockquote>
1486: <p>
1487: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
1488: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
1489: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
1490: Using these files
1491: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
1492: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

1498: <h3>Ports Tree</h3>
1499: <p>
1500: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
1501: <blockquote><pre>
1502: # <kbd>cd /usr</kbd>
1503: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</kbd>
1504: </pre></blockquote>
1505: <p>
1506: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
1507: if you know nothing about ports
1508: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
1509: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
1510: OpenBSD ports system.
1511: <p>
1512: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
1513: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
1514: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
1515: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
1516: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
1517: with a command like:
1518: <blockquote><pre>
1519: # <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
1520: # <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_9</kbd>
1521: </pre></blockquote>
1522: <p>
1523: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
1524: server.]
1525: <p>
1526: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1527: ports for the 6.9 release will be made available if problems arise.
1528: <p>
1529: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
1530: would like to know more, the mailing list
1531: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
