1.16 jsg 434: <li>Bugfix: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a> could
435: fail to invalidate nexthops and incorrectly leave them in the FIB or
436: Adj-RIB-Out.
1.11 benno 437: <li>Speedup <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpctl.8">bgpctl</a>

1.12 benno 449: <li>Allowed more than one CRL URI in certificates.
1.11 benno 450: <li>Do not apply timezone offsets when converting X509 times. X509
451: times are in UTC and comparing them to times in different timezones
452: would cause validity problems.

457: <li>DER decoding functions were refactored to leverage ASN.1 templates.

1.11 benno 465: (ASPA) objects conforming to draft-ietf-sidrops-aspa-profile-10.
466: Validated ASPA payloads are visible in JSON and filemode (-f) output.
467: <li>Set rsync connection I/O idle timeout to 15 seconds.
1.13 benno 468: <li>Unify the maximum idle I/O and connect timeouts for rsync & HTTPS.
1.18 jsg 469: <li>rpki-client now performs stricter EE certificate validation:
1.11 benno 470: <ul>
471: <li>Disallow AS Resources extensions in ROA EE certificates.
472: <li>Disallow Subject Information Access (SIA) extensions in RPKI

475: </ul>
476: <li>Improve readability and add various information being printed in
477: verbose mode.
478: <li>Extend filemode (-f) output and print X.509 certificates in PEM
479: format when increased verbosity (-vv) is specified.
480: <li>Shorten the RRDP I/O idle timeout.
481: <li>Introduce a deadline timer that aborts all repository synchronization
482: after seven eights of timeout (-s). With this rpki-client has improved
1.13 benno 483: chances to complete and produce an output even when a CA is excessively
1.11 benno 484: slow.
485: <li>Abort a currently running RRDP request process when the per-repository
486: timeout is reached.
487: <li>Permit multiple AccessDescription entries in SIA X.509 extensions. While
488: fetching from secondary locations is not yet supported, rpki-client will
1.13 benno 489: not treat occurrence as a fatal error.
1.11 benno 490: <li>Resolve a potential for a race condition in non-atomic RRDP deltas.
491: <li>Fix some memory leaks.
492: <li>Improve compliance with the HTTP protocol specification.
493: </ul>
494:
1.14 benno 495: <li>In <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospfd.8">ospfd(8)</a>,
1.11 benno 496: relax the limitations on what is an acceptable unicast IP. There are no
497: more experiments in IPv4 and so there is less reason for network
498: daemons to deny formerly experimental IP space. Multicast IPs
1.13 benno 499: (224/4) and loopback (127/8) are still disallowed.
1.14 benno 500: <li>Added check to <a
501: href="https://man.openbsd.org/acme-client.1">acme-client(1)</a> to
502: ensure the challenge token is turned into a filename that is base64url
503: encoded.

507: href="https://man.openbsd.org/tcpdump.8">tcpdump(8)</a> print
508: ASnumbers in 'asplain' format instead the old 'asdot' format.

510: <li>Made -X connect SOCKS work with IPv6 adresses in <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/nc.1">nc(1)</a>.

708: If you are at all confused when installing OpenBSD, read the relevant
709: INSTALL.* file as listed above!
710:
711: <h3>OpenBSD/alpha:</h3>
712:
713: <p>
714: If your machine can boot from CD, you can write <i>install72.iso</i> or

1.10 benno 860: If you already have an OpenBSD 7.1 system, and do not want to reinstall,
1.1 deraadt 861: upgrade instructions and advice can be found in the

868: <h3>Notes about the source code</h3>
869: <p>
870: <code>src.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src</code>.
871: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
872: which are in a separate archive.
873: To extract:
874: <blockquote><pre>
875: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src</kbd>
876: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
877: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</kbd>
878: </pre></blockquote>
879: <p>
880: <code>sys.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src/sys</code>.
881: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
882: To extract:
883: <blockquote><pre>
884: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</kbd>
885: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
886: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</kbd>
887: </pre></blockquote>
888: <p>
889: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
890: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
891: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
892: Using these files
893: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
894: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

900: <h3>Ports Tree</h3>
901: <p>
902: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
903: <blockquote><pre>
904: # <kbd>cd /usr</kbd>
905: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</kbd>
906: </pre></blockquote>
907: <p>
908: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
909: if you know nothing about ports
910: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
911: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
912: OpenBSD ports system.
913: <p>
914: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
915: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
916: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
917: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
918: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
919: with a command like:
920: <blockquote><pre>
921: # <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
922: # <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_7_2</kbd>
923: </pre></blockquote>
924: <p>
925: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
926: server.]
927: <p>
928: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
929: ports for the 7.2 release will be made available if problems arise.
930: <p>
931: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
932: would like to know more, the mailing list
933: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
