<li>Various kernel improvements:

<ul>

<li>Allowed bsd.rd and bsd/bsd.mp to boot on Oracle Cloud amd64 instances.

<li>Added support for switching from glass console to serial console

on arm64 systems that default to glass console.

<li>pf(4) automatically allows IGMP and ICMP6 MLD packets with

router alert option.

Special allow-opts rules are no longer needed for multicast

discovery.

<li>Implement "show all routes" to print routing tables in ddb(4).

<li>Count dropped network packets due to low memory in netstat(1).

<li>...

<li>Simplified machine command handling in <a

href="https://man.openbsd.org/ddb.4">ddb(4)</a>.

<li>Changed to a simpler formula to calculate a default kern.maxthread

value: 2*NPROCESS.

<li>Enabled <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/kstat.4">kstat(4)</a>, a

device that exports kernel statistics that can be read by <a

href="https://man.openbsd.org/kstat.4">kstat(4)</a>.

</ul>

<li>Various new userland features:

<ul>

<li>...

<li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/kstat.1">kstat(1)</a>, a

utility to display kernel statistics collected by <a

href="https://man.openbsd.org/kstat.4">kstat(4)</a>.

</ul>

<li>Various bugfixes and tweaks in userland:

<ul>

<li>...

<li>Changed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/compress">compress(1)</a>

to print a more accurate message when -v is used with -k.

<li>Fixed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/openrsync">openrsync(1)</a>

on sparc64 by eliminating a redundant second conversion of the int

value from little to host endian.

<li>Made use of the fact that repositories are unique objects in <a

href="https://man.openbsd.org/pkg_add">pkg_add(1)</a> and annotated

the quirks repository as cached, allowing for a large speed increase.

<li>Fixed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/kbd.8">kbd(8)</a> so it

doesn't fail silently when executed by a regular user.

</ul>

<li>Improved hardware support and driver bugfixes, including:

Line 210

Line 230

driver for Allwinner wakeup interrupt controller.

<li>New gpiorestart

driver for system reset via GPIO pin.

<li>...

<li>Added support for more power sensors to <a

Line 240

Line 262

<li>...

</ul>

<li>Changes in the network stack:

<ul>

<li>Relaxed address availability check for <a

processes listening for the same multicast address do not need to be

the same UID.

</ul>

<li>Routing daemons and other userland network improvements:

<ul>

<li>IPsec support was improved:

Line 272

Line 303

</ul>

<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/rpki-client.8">rpki-client(8)</a> saw some changes:

<ul>

<li>Allowed more than one CRL URI in certificates.

<li>Do not apply timezone offsets when converting X509 times. X509

times are in UTC and comparing them to times in different timezones

would cause validity problems.
