1.17 stsp 588: <li>Implemented RA (new 11n Tx rate adaptation) in <a
1.15 benno 589: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwm.4">iwm(4)</a> and <a
590: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwn.4">iwn(4)</a>.
591: <li>Prevented a WPA failure in <a
592: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ipw.4">ipw(4)</a> due to a state
593: mismatch between firmware and net80211 during the association
594: sequence.
595: <li>Ensured WEP and plaintext interface link state update by <a
596: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ipw.4">ipw(4)</a>.
597: <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwx.4">iwx(4)</a> attach to
598: AX201 devices with PCI ID 0x34f0. Needs <a
599: href="https://man.openbsd.org/fw_update.1">fw_update(1)</a>.
600: <li>Fixed a problem where <a
601: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwn.4">iwn(4)</a> firmware would
602: generate bogus block ack requests and stall traffic.
1.1 deraadt 603: </ul>
604:
605: <li>IEEE 802.11 wireless stack improvements and bugfixes:
606: <ul>
1.5 benno 607: <li>Fixed the calculation of "maxlen" in <a
608: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwm.4">iwm(4)</a> and <a
609: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwx.4">iwx(4)</a> when there are
610: multiple MPDUs in one packet.
611: <li>Fixed 802.11 RSN capabilities announced to peers.
612: <li>Flushed the reorder buffer after gap timeout to prevent frames
613: from remaining in the buffer until the next frame is received.
614: <li>Avoided spurious "input packet decapsulations failed" errors in
615: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/netstat.1">netstat(1)</a> -W with
616: A-MSDU enabled.
1.17 stsp 617: <li>Introduced RA, a new 11n Tx rate adaptation module for net80211.
1.15 benno 618: Unlike MiRa, RA does not attempt to precisely measure actual
619: throughput but simply deducts a loss percentage from the theoretical
620: throughput which can be achieved by a given MCS.
1.1 deraadt 621: </ul>
622:
623: <li>Generic network stack improvements and bugfixes:
624: <ul>
1.10 benno 625: <li>Removed the direct ACK on every other data segment. After
626: receiving a data segment, we were sending out two ACKs, the first one
627: in tcp_input() direct after receiving and the second ACK after the
628: userland or the sosplice task read some data out of the socket buffer.
629: This change removes the ACK in tcp_input(), saving processing time and
630: improving network performance.
631: <li>Removed the maxburst feature from tcp_output().
632: <li>Added a MONITOR feature to interfaces. Packets received on these
633: interfaces do not enter the network stack for further processing. This
634: can be used to watch traffic, for example with <a
635: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bpf.4">bpf(4)</a> without risk of the packets
636: interfering with the system.
637:
638: <li>Added etherbridge, the internals of a reusable learning bridge
639: interface providing common code reusable for other drivers needing a
640: mac learning bridge.
641: <li>Introduced <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/veb.4">veb(4)</a>, a
642: Virtual Ethernet Bridge driver.
1.3 benno 643:
1.15 benno 644: <li>Added the ability to force the selection of source IP address for
645: programs that do not specify a source IP, overriding the default
646: source IP selection algorithm. This is configurable via <a
647: href="https://man.openbsd.org/route.8">route(8)</a>
648: <tt>sourceaddr</tt> command.
649:
650: <li>Bring interfaces up when autoconfiguration for inetor inet6 is
651: enabled (AUTOCONF4 or AUTOCONF6 flags).
652: <li>Adjust terminology in <a
653: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig.8">ifconfig(8)</a> to refer to
654: "temporary address extensions" rather than the former "privacy
655: extensions," including the addition of an AUTOCONF6TEMP flag (to
656: replace the negative flag "INET6_NOPRIVACY"). The autoconfprivacy
657: option if <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig.8">ifconfig(8)</a>
658: has been deprecated.
659: <li>Made it possible to disable the "autoconf" flag but keep
660: "temporary" enabled in <a
661: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig.8">ifconfig(8)</a>.
662: <li>For IPv6 addresses, added tracking of address proposal creation
663: times to be able to establish total lifetime. This information is used
664: to renew pltime/vltime of privacy addresse per RFC 4941.
1.3 benno 665:
1.15 benno 666: <li>Prevented kernel reuse of mbuf memory when generating the ICMP6
667: response to an IPv6 packet.
668: <li>Use the toeplitz hash algorithm to a flowid for tcp packets,
669: which in turn is used to choose the tx ring on network cards with
670: multiple rings.
671: <li>Fixed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/wg.4">wg(4)</a> on macppc
672: by keeping track of allowed ips pointer correctly.
673: <li>Fixed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/wg.4">wg(4)</a> ioctl to
674: handle multiple wgpeers.
675: <li>Fixed a race between tx/rx handshakes in <a
676: href="https://man.openbsd.org/wg.4">wg(4)</a>.
677: <li>Prevented a potential hang when trying to remove a <a
678: href="https://man.openbsd.org/tun.4">tun(4)</a> interface.
679: <li>Used the correct rdomain when adding and deleting routes with <a
680: href="https://man.openbsd.org/mpip.4">mpip(4)</a> and <a
681: href="https://man.openbsd.org/mpw.4">mpw(4)</a>.
682: <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig.8">ifconfig(8)</a>

694: <li>Fixed hangs on amd64 bsd.rd due to misreported core clock
695: frequency on newer Intel Comet Lake models.
1.15 benno 696: <li>Began distributing the gzip'd version of bsd.rd on all platforms
697: with boot methods supporting it.
698: <li>Fixed a problem which prevented use of <a

703: <li>Prevented <a
704: href="https://man.openbsd.org/disklabel.8">disklabel(8)</a> from
705: adjusting the swap 'b' partition size if physmem is zero to keep the
706: auto-allocate code from putting a filesystem on that partition.
707: <li>Emulate "[inet] autoconf" <a
708: href="https://man.openbsd.org/hostname.if.5">hostname.if(5)</a> lines
709: with "dhcp" so users testing <a
710: href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhcpleased.8">dhcpleased(8)</a> will

725: <li>Routing daemons and other userland network improvements:
726: <ul>
1.15 benno 727: <li>The <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a> daemon saw the following changes:
728: <ul>
1.3 benno 729: <li>Fixed a memory leak when parsing <a
730: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a> roa-set lists.
731: <li>Stopped allowing configuration of the same neighbor multiple
732: times in <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a>.
1.5 benno 733: <li>When exporting prefixes from multiple sessions in <a
734: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a> into the same <a
735: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> table, now prefixes are
736: only removed from the table when withdrawn from all sessions that
737: announced them.
738: <li>Introduced a send hold timer in <a
739: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a> to detect stalls on
740: the sending side of a TCP connection, acting as a last resort to
741: detect faulty peers.
742: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpctl.8">bgpctl(8)</a>
743: "show sets" to display information about the roa-set, as-sets and
744: prefix-sets loaded into <a
745: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a>.
1.10 benno 746: <li>Introduced the <a
747: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.conf.5">bgpd.conf(5)</a> per
748: neighbor and global config option "reject as-set yes/no" to allow
749: rejection of received UPDATES with AS_SET segments. These rejected
750: prefixes can be viewed with <a
751: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpctl.8">bgpctl(8)</a> "show rib in
752: error".
753: <li>Properly implemented "rde med compare strict" in <a
754: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a> and ensured that the
755: order of prefixes is always correct.
756: <li>Added RTR support to <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">OpenBGPD</a>.
757: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpctl.8">bgpctl(8)</a>
758: "show rtr" to display basic information about RTR sessions.
759: <li>Introduced <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a>
760: <code>rde evaluate all</code> to work around path hiding in IXP
761: route-server environments.
1.15 benno 762: </ul>
1.10 benno 763:
1.15 benno 764: <li>The <a
765: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospfd.8">ospfd(8)</a> and <a
766: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospf6d.8">ospf6d(8)</a> routing
767: daemons saw various internal refactoring to keep the code similar to
768: changes in other routing daemons and improve maintainability.<br>
769: Additionally, support was added in <a
770: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospfd.8">ospfd(8)</a> for interfaces
771: that share the same IP.
1.10 benno 772:
1.15 benno 773: <li>The <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> packet filter and it's userland utility:
774: <ul>
775: <li>Relaxed checks in <a
776: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pfctl.8">pfctl(8)</a> and <a
777: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> to accept any valid
778: routing domain, even if it does not yet exist.
779: <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pfctl.8">pfctl(8)</a>
780: detect and reject bogus ranges before loading the ruleset to prevent a
781: panic.
782: <li>Changed route-to in <a
783: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.conf.5">pf.conf(5)</a> to send
784: packets to IPs instead of interfaces.
785: <li>Changed pf_route so <a
786: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> only runs when packets
787: enter and leave the stack. Running the same packet through pf multiple
788: times creates confusion for the state table. By default, pf states are
789: floating, meaning that packets are matched to states regardless of
790: which interface they're going over. This diff avoids multiple pf(4)
791: traversals of one packet causing confusion in the state table.
792: <li>Prevented the kernel from being stuck in an endless recursion
793: during TCP path MTU discovery when <a
794: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> changes the routing
795: table when sending packets.
796: <li>When cutting off the head of an overlapping fragment during <a
797: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> reassembly, reinserted
798: the fragment into the lookup table with the correct index.
799: </ul>
1.5 benno 800:
1.15 benno 801: <li>IPSEC support in the kernel and the <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> userland daemon:
802: <ul>
1.3 benno 803: <li>Added support to request IP addresses as IKEv2 initiator to <a
804: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>. If 'request addr
805: 0.0.0.0' is configured, any address will be accepted.
806: <li>Make <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> accept
807: ANY dynamic address with 'request addr 0.0.0.0'.
808: <li>Added 'dynamic' keyword to <a
809: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.conf.5">iked.conf(5)</a> to allow
810: configuration of flows to dynamically assigned addresses.
811: <li>Added the 'any' keyword to <a
812: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.conf.5">iked.conf(5)</a> for
813: requests to allow "request address any".
814: <li>Enabled <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>
815: support for ASN1_DN ipsec identifiers.
816: <li>Implemented <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>
817: "from dynamic," installing flows where "dynamic" is replaced by the
818: received dynamic IP address.
819: <li>Made sure not to replace 0.0.0.0 with a dynamic address in <a
820: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> if it is a network
821: address.
822: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> -s
823: socket option to specify a control socket.
824: <li>Used a counter instead of random IV for AES-GCM in <a
825: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>, eliminating the
826: risk of random collisions.
827: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>
828: support for multiple address pools.
829: <li>Added the <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>
830: "set stickyaddress" option, which attempts to assign the same "config
831: address" when an IKESA is negotiated with the DSTID of an existing
832: IKESA.
833: <li>Ensured rekeying of every child SA in <a
834: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>.
1.5 benno 835: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> support
836: for RSASSA-PSS signature verification (RFC 7427).
837: <li>Corrected the first packet of an <a
838: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ipsec.4">ipsec(4)</a> SA to have
839: sequence number 1.
840: <li>Accepted reject and blackhole routes for IPsec PMTU discovery.
841: <li>Prevented leaking of ipsec_hosts in <a
842: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> when building
843: hosts_list.
844: <li>Prevented initiation of new additional SAs for each policy upon
845: every <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ikectl.8">ikectl(8)</a> config
846: reload.
847: <li>Fixed "any" and "dynamic" keywords for flows in <a
848: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> and added proper
849: IPv6 support.
1.9 benno 850: <li>Created a path MTU host route for <a
851: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ipsec.4">IPsec(4)</a> over IPv6.
1.10 benno 852: <li>Added support for INVALID_KE_PAYLOAD in <a
853: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> CREATE_CHILD_SA
854: exchange.
855: <li>Added support for RSA-PSS PKCS1 signatures to <a
856: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>.
857: <li>Fixed path MTU discovery for ESP tunnels in IPv6.
858: <li>Upgraded to OpenSSL 1.1 compatible crypto API in <a
859: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>.
860: <li>Added an optional "group none" transform for child SAs in <a
861: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> to ensure the
862: ability to negotiate optional PFS.
863: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>
864: dynamic address configuration for roadwarrior clients, with a new
865: "iface" config option which can be used to specify an interface for
866: the virtual addresses received from the peer.
1.15 benno 867: <li>Fixed an <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>
868: interop problem with strongswan if make-before-break is enabled.
869: </ul>
1.3 benno 870:
1.16 tb 871: <li>The <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/httpd.8">httpd(8)</a> webserver saw numerous improvements:
1.15 benno 872: <ul>
873: <li>Prevented a crash due to
874: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/httpd.8">httpd(8)</a> listening on port
875: 443 with missing TLS certificates.
876: <li>Created a new "location (found|notfound)" option for

1.15 benno 969: <ul>
970: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhcpleased.8">dhcpleased(8)</a>
971: implements the DHCP protocol to acquire IPv4 address leases from
972: servers.
973: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/resolvd.8">resolvd(8)</a>
974: manages the content of <a

976: on nameserver proposals from dhcpleased(8) and slaacd(8).
977: </ul>
978: <li>Other userland network changes:

1021: with <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/unwind.8">unwind(8)</a>. Does
1022: not prevent logging to stderr with "unwind -d".
1023:
1.3 benno 1024: <li>Removed the -L option from <a
1025: href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhclient.8">dhclient(8)</a>.

1045: server's Last-Modified header if available when saving local files and
1046: introduced the ftp "-u" flag to disable this behavior.
1.15 benno 1047: <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ftp.1">ftp(1)</a> set
1048: timestamps only on files.
1.10 benno 1049:

1059: href="https://man.openbsd.org/snmpd.8">snmpd(8)</a> traphandler
1060: process.
1061: <li>When calling <a
1062: href="https://man.openbsd.org/getaddrinfo.3">getaddrinfo(3)</a> with
1063: AI_ADDRCONFIG, consider the routing domain when checking for available
1064: address families. This ensures that name resolution is only performed
1065: for the address families available in the rdomain.
1066: <li>Implemented the <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/nc.1">nc(1)</a>
1067: -D socket debug option in <a

1466: <p>
1467: If nothing works, you can boot over the network as described in INSTALL.sparc64.

1483: <h3>Notes about the source code</h3>
1484: <p>
1485: <code>src.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src</code>.
1486: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
1487: which are in a separate archive.
1488: To extract:
1489: <blockquote><pre>
1490: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src</kbd>
1491: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
1492: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</kbd>
1493: </pre></blockquote>
1494: <p>
1495: <code>sys.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src/sys</code>.
1496: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
1497: To extract:
1498: <blockquote><pre>
1499: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</kbd>
1500: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
1501: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</kbd>
1502: </pre></blockquote>
1503: <p>
1504: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
1505: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
1506: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
1507: Using these files
1508: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
1509: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

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