1.9 bluhm 111: <li>Make route timer MP safe and use pool rttmr.
112: <li>Use kernel lock to protect parts of ARP, ND6 and PPPoE that
113: are not MP safe.
114: Lookup of existing ARP entry is MP safe and can run in parallel.

131: Readers cannot share the lock forever.
132: This prevents starvation of the writer.
133: <li>Run interface media ioctl with shared netlock so packets
134: can be processed while running ifconfig(8).

325: <ul>
1.12 benno 326: <li>Allowed more than one CRL URI in certificates.
1.11 benno 327: <li>Do not apply timezone offsets when converting X509 times. X509
328: times are in UTC and comparing them to times in different timezones
329: would cause validity problems.
330: <li>Add support for an operator-configurable skiplist facility.
331: Operators can specify a list of FQDNs which should not be contacted
332: when synchronizing the local cache to the network.
333: <li>Emit a warning when a RRDP session serial number decreases.
334: <li>DER decoding functions were refactored to leverage ASN.1 templates.

338: <li>Add support to decode & print TAL (RFC 8630) details in filemode (-f).
339: <li>Emit objects in Concatenated JSON format when filemode (-f) and the JSON
340: output flag (-j) are combined.
1.13 ! benno 341: <li>Add support for validating Autonomous System Provider Authorization
1.11 benno 342: (ASPA) objects conforming to draft-ietf-sidrops-aspa-profile-10.
343: Validated ASPA payloads are visible in JSON and filemode (-f) output.
344: <li>Set rsync connection I/O idle timeout to 15 seconds.
1.13 ! benno 345: <li>Unify the maximum idle I/O and connect timeouts for rsync & HTTPS.
1.11 benno 346: <li>Rpki-client now performs stricter EE certificate validation:
347: <ul>
348: <li>Disallow AS Resources extensions in ROA EE certificates.
349: <li>Disallow Subject Information Access (SIA) extensions in RPKI
350: Signed Checklist (RSC) EE certs.
351: <li>Check the resources in ROAs and RSCs against EE certs.
352: </ul>
353: <li>Improve readability and add various information being printed in
354: verbose mode.
355: <li>Extend filemode (-f) output and print X.509 certificates in PEM
356: format when increased verbosity (-vv) is specified.
357: <li>Shorten the RRDP I/O idle timeout.
358: <li>Introduce a deadline timer that aborts all repository synchronization
359: after seven eights of timeout (-s). With this rpki-client has improved
1.13 ! benno 360: chances to complete and produce an output even when a CA is excessively
1.11 benno 361: slow.
362: <li>Abort a currently running RRDP request process when the per-repository
363: timeout is reached.
364: <li>Permit multiple AccessDescription entries in SIA X.509 extensions. While
365: fetching from secondary locations is not yet supported, rpki-client will
1.13 ! benno 366: not treat occurrence as a fatal error.
1.11 benno 367: <li>Resolve a potential for a race condition in non-atomic RRDP deltas.
368: <li>Fix some memory leaks.
369: <li>Improve compliance with the HTTP protocol specification.
370: </ul>
371:
372: <li>In <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/rpki-client.8">ospfd(8)</a>,
373: relax the limitations on what is an acceptable unicast IP. There are no
374: more experiments in IPv4 and so there is less reason for network
375: daemons to deny formerly experimental IP space. Multicast IPs
1.13 ! benno 376: (224/4) and loopback (127/8) are still disallowed.

719: <p>
720: <code>src.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src</code>.
721: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
722: which are in a separate archive.
723: To extract:
724: <blockquote><pre>
725: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src</kbd>
726: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
727: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</kbd>
728: </pre></blockquote>
729: <p>
730: <code>sys.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src/sys</code>.
731: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
732: To extract:
733: <blockquote><pre>
734: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</kbd>
735: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
736: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</kbd>
737: </pre></blockquote>
738: <p>
739: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
740: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
741: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
742: Using these files
743: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
744: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

751: <p>
752: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:

754: # <kbd>cd /usr</kbd>
755: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</kbd>
756: </pre></blockquote>
757: <p>
758: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
759: if you know nothing about ports
760: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
761: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
762: OpenBSD ports system.
763: <p>
764: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
765: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
766: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
767: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
768: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
769: with a command like:
770: <blockquote><pre>
771: # <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
772: # <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_7_2</kbd>
773: </pre></blockquote>
774: <p>
775: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
776: server.]
777: <p>
778: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
779: ports for the 7.2 release will be made available if problems arise.
780: <p>
781: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
782: would like to know more, the mailing list
783: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
