1.17 stsp 580: <li>Implemented RA (new 11n Tx rate adaptation) in <a
1.15 benno 581: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwm.4">iwm(4)</a> and <a
582: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwn.4">iwn(4)</a>.
583: <li>Prevented a WPA failure in <a
584: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ipw.4">ipw(4)</a> due to a state
585: mismatch between firmware and net80211 during the association
586: sequence.
587: <li>Ensured WEP and plaintext interface link state update by <a
588: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ipw.4">ipw(4)</a>.
589: <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwx.4">iwx(4)</a> attach to
590: AX201 devices with PCI ID 0x34f0. Needs <a
591: href="https://man.openbsd.org/fw_update.1">fw_update(1)</a>.
592: <li>Fixed a problem where <a
593: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwn.4">iwn(4)</a> firmware would

1.1 deraadt 595: </ul>
596:
597: <li>IEEE 802.11 wireless stack improvements and bugfixes:
598: <ul>
1.5 benno 599: <li>Fixed the calculation of "maxlen" in <a
600: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwm.4">iwm(4)</a> and <a
601: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwx.4">iwx(4)</a> when there are
602: multiple MPDUs in one packet.
603: <li>Fixed 802.11 RSN capabilities announced to peers.
604: <li>Flushed the reorder buffer after gap timeout to prevent frames
605: from remaining in the buffer until the next frame is received.
606: <li>Avoided spurious "input packet decapsulations failed" errors in
607: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/netstat.1">netstat(1)</a> -W with
608: A-MSDU enabled.
1.17 stsp 609: <li>Introduced RA, a new 11n Tx rate adaptation module for net80211.
1.15 benno 610: Unlike MiRa, RA does not attempt to precisely measure actual
611: throughput but simply deducts a loss percentage from the theoretical
612: throughput which can be achieved by a given MCS.
1.1 deraadt 613: </ul>
614:
615: <li>Generic network stack improvements and bugfixes:
616: <ul>
1.10 benno 617: <li>Removed the direct ACK on every other data segment. After
618: receiving a data segment, we were sending out two ACKs, the first one
619: in tcp_input() direct after receiving and the second ACK after the
620: userland or the sosplice task read some data out of the socket buffer.
621: This change removes the ACK in tcp_input(), saving processing time and
622: improving network performance.
623: <li>Removed the maxburst feature from tcp_output().
624: <li>Added a MONITOR feature to interfaces. Packets received on these
625: interfaces do not enter the network stack for further processing. This
626: can be used to watch traffic, for example with <a
627: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bpf.4">bpf(4)</a> without risk of the packets
628: interfering with the system.
629:
630: <li>Added etherbridge, the internals of a reusable learning bridge
631: interface providing common code reusable for other drivers needing a
632: mac learning bridge.

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

683: which could cause autoinstall to fail by calling <a
684: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ftp.1">ftp(1)</a> without a local
685: address.
686: <li>Fixed hangs on amd64 bsd.rd due to misreported core clock
687: frequency on newer Intel Comet Lake models.
1.15 benno 688: <li>Began distributing the gzip'd version of bsd.rd on all platforms
689: with boot methods supporting it.
690: <li>Fixed a problem which prevented use of <a
691: href="https://man.openbsd.org/sysupgrade.8">sysupgrade(8)</a> when an
692: interface failed to come up and <a
693: href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhclient.8">dhclient(8)</a> didn't

695: <li>Prevented <a
696: href="https://man.openbsd.org/disklabel.8">disklabel(8)</a> from
697: adjusting the swap 'b' partition size if physmem is zero to keep the
698: auto-allocate code from putting a filesystem on that partition.
699: <li>Emulate "[inet] autoconf" <a
700: href="https://man.openbsd.org/hostname.if.5">hostname.if(5)</a> lines
701: with "dhcp" so users testing <a
702: href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhcpleased.8">dhcpleased(8)</a> will

726: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a> into the same <a
727: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> table, now prefixes are
728: only removed from the table when withdrawn from all sessions that
729: announced them.
730: <li>Introduced a send hold timer in <a
731: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a> to detect stalls on
732: the sending side of a TCP connection, acting as a last resort to
733: detect faulty peers.
734: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpctl.8">bgpctl(8)</a>
735: "show sets" to display information about the roa-set, as-sets and
736: prefix-sets loaded into <a
737: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a>.
1.10 benno 738: <li>Introduced the <a
739: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.conf.5">bgpd.conf(5)</a> per
740: neighbor and global config option "reject as-set yes/no" to allow
741: rejection of received UPDATES with AS_SET segments. These rejected
742: prefixes can be viewed with <a
743: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpctl.8">bgpctl(8)</a> "show rib in
744: error".
745: <li>Properly implemented "rde med compare strict" in <a
746: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a> and ensured that the
747: order of prefixes is always correct.
748: <li>Added RTR support to <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">OpenBGPD</a>.
749: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpctl.8">bgpctl(8)</a>
750: "show rtr" to display basic information about RTR sessions.
751: <li>Introduced <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a>
752: <code>rde evaluate all</code> to work around path hiding in IXP
753: route-server environments.
1.15 benno 754: </ul>
1.10 benno 755:
1.15 benno 756: <li>The <a
757: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospfd.8">ospfd(8)</a> and <a
758: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospf6d.8">ospf6d(8)</a> routing
759: daemons saw various internal refactoring to keep the code similar to
760: changes in other routing daemons and improve maintainability.<br>
761: Additionally, support was added in <a
762: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospfd.8">ospfd(8)</a> for interfaces
763: that share the same IP.
1.10 benno 764:
1.15 benno 765: <li>The <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> packet filter and it's userland utility:
766: <ul>
767: <li>Relaxed checks in <a
768: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pfctl.8">pfctl(8)</a> and <a
769: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> to accept any valid
770: routing domain, even if it does not yet exist.
771: <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pfctl.8">pfctl(8)</a>
772: detect and reject bogus ranges before loading the ruleset to prevent a
773: panic.
774: <li>Changed route-to in <a
775: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.conf.5">pf.conf(5)</a> to send
776: packets to IPs instead of interfaces.
777: <li>Changed pf_route so <a
778: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> only runs when packets
779: enter and leave the stack. Running the same packet through pf multiple
780: times creates confusion for the state table. By default, pf states are
781: floating, meaning that packets are matched to states regardless of
782: which interface they're going over. This diff avoids multiple pf(4)
783: traversals of one packet causing confusion in the state table.
784: <li>Prevented the kernel from being stuck in an endless recursion
785: during TCP path MTU discovery when <a
786: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> changes the routing
787: table when sending packets.
788: <li>When cutting off the head of an overlapping fragment during <a
789: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> reassembly, reinserted
790: the fragment into the lookup table with the correct index.
791: </ul>

796: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>. If 'request addr
797: 0.0.0.0' is configured, any address will be accepted.
798: <li>Make <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> accept
799: ANY dynamic address with 'request addr 0.0.0.0'.

809: "from dynamic," installing flows where "dynamic" is replaced by the
810: received dynamic IP address.
811: <li>Made sure not to replace 0.0.0.0 with a dynamic address in <a
812: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> if it is a network
813: address.
814: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> -s
815: socket option to specify a control socket.
816: <li>Used a counter instead of random IV for AES-GCM in <a
817: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>, eliminating the
818: risk of random collisions.
819: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>
820: support for multiple address pools.
821: <li>Added the <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>
822: "set stickyaddress" option, which attempts to assign the same "config
823: address" when an IKESA is negotiated with the DSTID of an existing
824: IKESA.
825: <li>Ensured rekeying of every child SA in <a
826: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>.
1.5 benno 827: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> support
828: for RSASSA-PSS signature verification (RFC 7427).
829: <li>Corrected the first packet of an <a
830: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ipsec.4">ipsec(4)</a> SA to have
831: sequence number 1.
832: <li>Accepted reject and blackhole routes for IPsec PMTU discovery.
833: <li>Prevented leaking of ipsec_hosts in <a
834: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> when building
835: hosts_list.
836: <li>Prevented initiation of new additional SAs for each policy upon
837: every <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ikectl.8">ikectl(8)</a> config
838: reload.
839: <li>Fixed "any" and "dynamic" keywords for flows in <a
840: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> and added proper
841: IPv6 support.
1.9 benno 842: <li>Created a path MTU host route for <a
843: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ipsec.4">IPsec(4)</a> over IPv6.
1.10 benno 844: <li>Added support for INVALID_KE_PAYLOAD in <a
845: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> CREATE_CHILD_SA
846: exchange.
847: <li>Added support for RSA-PSS PKCS1 signatures to <a
848: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>.
849: <li>Fixed path MTU discovery for ESP tunnels in IPv6.
850: <li>Upgraded to OpenSSL 1.1 compatible crypto API in <a
851: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>.
852: <li>Added an optional "group none" transform for child SAs in <a

1.15 benno 864: <ul>
865: <li>Prevented a crash due to
866: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/httpd.8">httpd(8)</a> listening on port

1460: Make sure you use a properly formatted floppy with NO BAD BLOCKS or your install
1461: will most likely fail.

1464: You can also write <i>miniroot69.img</i> to the swap partition on
1465: the disk and boot with <i>boot disk:b</i>.
1466:
1467: <p>
1468: If nothing works, you can boot over the network as described in INSTALL.sparc64.

1484: <h3>Notes about the source code</h3>
1485: <p>
1486: <code>src.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src</code>.
1487: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
1488: which are in a separate archive.
1489: To extract:
1490: <blockquote><pre>
1491: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src</kbd>
1492: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
1493: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</kbd>
1494: </pre></blockquote>
1495: <p>
1496: <code>sys.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src/sys</code>.
1497: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
1498: To extract:
1499: <blockquote><pre>
1500: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</kbd>
1501: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
1502: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</kbd>
1503: </pre></blockquote>
1504: <p>
1505: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
1506: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
1507: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
1508: Using these files
1509: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
1510: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

1516: <h3>Ports Tree</h3>
1517: <p>
1518: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
1519: <blockquote><pre>
1520: # <kbd>cd /usr</kbd>
1521: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</kbd>
1522: </pre></blockquote>
1523: <p>
1524: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
1525: if you know nothing about ports
1526: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
1527: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
1528: OpenBSD ports system.
1529: <p>
1530: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
1531: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
1532: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
1533: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
1534: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
1535: with a command like:
1536: <blockquote><pre>
1537: # <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
1538: # <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_9</kbd>
1539: </pre></blockquote>
1540: <p>
1541: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
1542: server.]
1543: <p>
1544: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1545: ports for the 6.9 release will be made available if problems arise.
1546: <p>
1547: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
1548: would like to know more, the mailing list
1549: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
