71: <h3>What's New</h3>
72: <p>
73: This is a partial list of new features and systems included in OpenBSD 7.2.
74: For a comprehensive list, see the <a href="plus72.html">changelog</a> leading
75: to 7.2.
76:
77: <ul>
78:
79: <li>New/extended platforms:
80: <ul>
1.4 jsg 81: <li>Added support for Ampere Altra
82: <li>Added support for Apple M2
1.35 benno 83: <li>Added support for Lenovo ThinkPad x13s and other machines using
1.34 benno 84: the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx Gen 3 (SC8280XP) SoC.
1.1 deraadt 85: <li>...
86: </ul>
87:
88: <li>Various kernel improvements:
89: <ul>
1.12 benno 90: <li>Allowed bsd.rd and bsd/bsd.mp to boot on Oracle Cloud amd64 instances.
91: <li>Added support for switching from glass console to serial console
92: on arm64 systems that default to glass console.
1.16 jsg 93: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> automatically allows
94: IGMP and ICMP6 MLD packets with router alert option.
1.9 bluhm 95: Special allow-opts rules are no longer needed for multicast
96: discovery.
1.19 benno 97: <li>Fixed a <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> NULL
98: dereference panic triggered by <a
99: href="https://man.openbsd.org/relayd.8">relayd(8)</a>.
1.16 jsg 100: <li>Implement "show all routes" to print routing tables in
101: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ddb.4">ddb(4)</a>.
1.29 benno 102: <li>Added a method (ESC D) to enter <a
103: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ddb.4">ddb(4)</a> on serial drivers that
104: do not have a true BREAK mechanism.
105: <li>Added "show all routes" and the ability to show individual routes
106: (e.g. "show route 0xfffffd807e9b0000") to <a
107: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ddb.4">ddb(4)</a>.
108: <li>Added a "show swap" command to <a
109: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ddb.4">ddb(4)</a> to help debugging.
110:
111:
1.16 jsg 112: <li>Count dropped network packets due to low memory in
113: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/netstat.1">netstat(1)</a>.
1.12 benno 114: <li>Simplified machine command handling in <a
115: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ddb.4">ddb(4)</a>.
116: <li>Changed to a simpler formula to calculate a default kern.maxthread
117: value: 2*NPROCESS.
118: <li>Enabled <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/kstat.4">kstat(4)</a>, a
119: device that exports kernel statistics that can be read by <a
1.23 jsg 120: href="https://man.openbsd.org/kstat.1">kstat(1)</a>.
1.13 benno 121: <li>Added cpu frequency sensors for each core on CPUs that have MPERF/APERF support.
1.14 benno 122: <li>Merged the UVM swap-backed and object-backed inactive page lists.
123: <li>Fixed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/rwlock.9">rwlock(9)</a>
124: implementation to be fair to writers. Previously, readers could grab
125: the lock even if writers were waiting first.
126: <li>Made the CPU frequency scaling duration relative to the load
127: when in automatic mode on battery.
128: <li>Fixed luna88k MULTIPROCESSOR kernels booting with CPU modules
129: installed in arbitrary slots.
1.19 benno 130: <li>Added a missing <a
131: href="https://man.openbsd.org/kqueue.2">kqueue(2)</a> wakeup, found by
132: a Go testcase hang.
133: <li>Bumped the maximum number of supported CPUs to 256 on arm64.
134:
1.29 benno 135: <!-- XXX should the following be here (swapper, pmem...) or maybe one entry describing them together? -->
136: <li>Ensure uvm_swap_io() can succeed, even in out of memory
137: situations, by reserving a second segment for the page daemon.
138: <li>Ensured progress in the swapper by pre-allocating pages in a DMA-reachable region.
139: <li>Made the page daemon consider pmemrange regions when trying to
140: free pages from the inactive list. Previously the page daemon could
141: use a lot of CPU without freeing a page because the global limits were
142: satisfied.
143: <li>Ensured that uvm_swap_get() will always sleep rather than
144: returning an error. Previously an error could be returned to the fault
145: handler which would result in processes dying when a system was under
146: a lot of memory pressure.
147:
148:
149: <li>Added support for using non-standard UARTs (such as the Synopsys
150: DesignWare UART) as an early console.
151:
152: <li>Remove NexGen CPU identification code as the kernel cannot run on these CPUs anyway.
153: <li>Remove Rise CPU identification code.
1.32 benno 154: <li>Dropped detection code for 386sx/386dx CPUs. OpenBSD/i386 hasn't
155: actually supported running on either for some time.
156: <li>Dropped detection code for Cyrix CPUs older than the Cyrix M2.
1.29 benno 157:
158: <li>Implemented the fundamentals for suspend/resume on arm64.
1.32 benno 159: <li>Simplified TSC synchronization testing on amd64.
160:
161: <li>Corrected sparc64 ofwboot to default to the <a
162: href="https://man.openbsd.org/softraid.4">softraid(4)</a> volume on the
163: boot device to make root on softraid work out of the box on sparc64
164: and be more consistent with softraid boot on other architectures.
165: <li>Added support for booting from RAID 1C <a
166: href="https://man.openbsd.org/softraid.4">softraid(4)</a> volumes on
167: amd64, sparc64 and arm64.
168:
169: <li>Removed the obsolete kern.nselcoll <a
170: href="https://man.openbsd.org/sysctl.2">sysctl(2)</a>.
171: <li>Changed mips64, octeon, and loongson to trigger deferred clock
172: interrupts from <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/splx.9">splx(9)</a>.
173: This isolates the clock interrupt schedule from the MD clock interrupt
174: code.
175: <li>Fixed a potential kernel panic when an msdos partition is out
176: of space by fixing instances where msdosfs passed a NULL proc pointer
177: to detrunc().
178: <li>Add a delay_init() function that helps on i386 and amd64
179: architectures in setting up delay_func for different timers and
180: switching between them depending on their quality properties. This
181: improves how timers backing <a
182: href="https://man.openbsd.org/delay.9">delay(9)</a> are managed.
1.29 benno 183:
1.1 deraadt 184: </ul>
185:
186: <li>SMP Improvements
187: <ul>
1.9 bluhm 188: <li>Make route timer MP safe and use pool rttmr.
189: <li>Use kernel lock to protect parts of ARP, ND6 and PPPoE that

198: control block.
199: <li>Protect UDP, raw IP, and divert packet input routines
200: with a per socket mutex.
1.16 jsg 201: <li>Protect <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/recv.2">recv(2)</a> system call

204: <li>Protect multicast deliver loop for UDP and raw IP sockets with rwlock.
1.13 benno 205: <li>Only grab netlock in IGMP and MLD timer when necessary.
1.9 bluhm 206: <li>TCP slow timer runs without netlock.
207: <li>Rework rwlock so that a writer will get the lock eventually.
208: Readers cannot share the lock forever.
209: This prevents starvation of the writer.
210: <li>Run interface media ioctl with shared netlock so packets
1.16 jsg 211: can be processed while running
212: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig.8">ifconfig(8)</a>.

1.13 benno 231: <li>Reimplemented the page allocation code using <a
232: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bus_dma.9">bus_dma(9)</a> APIs to make
233: sure DMA addresses are translated properly on architectures with an
234: IOMMU. This fixed <a
235: href="https://man.openbsd.org/amdgpu.4">amdgpu(4)</a> and <a
236: href="https://man.openbsd.org/radeondrm.4">radeondrm(4)</a> on
237: powerpc, sparc64, and arm64 machines.
1.29 benno 238: <li>Implemented support for framebuffers that don't start on a page
239: boundary (like those on the new 14" and 16" Macbook Pro).
240: <li>Added handling for framebuffers where the first pixel isn't
241: page-aligned to <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/wsfb.4">wsfb(4)</a>.
1.32 benno 242: <li>Fixed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/Xorg.1">Xorg(1)</a> when

1.14 benno 289: <li>Replaced <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/rc.d.8">rc.d(8)</a>
290: $rcexec variable with an rc_exec function. <em>This will require a
291: mechanical change from <code>${rcexec}</code> to <code>rc_exec</code>
292: in rc.d scripts.</em> Kept compatibility to give people a chance to
293: fix their custom scripts.
1.19 benno 294: <li>Introduced a new daemon_execdir variable to <a
295: href="https://man.openbsd.org/rc.d.8">rc.d(8)</a> for changing to a

302: <ul>
1.12 benno 303: <li>Changed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/compress">compress(1)</a>
304: to print a more accurate message when -v is used with -k.
305: <li>Fixed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/openrsync">openrsync(1)</a>
306: on sparc64 by eliminating a redundant second conversion of the int
307: value from little to host endian.
1.29 benno 308: <li>Added connection timeout functionality to <a
309: href="https://man.openbsd.org/openrsync.1">openrsync(1)</a> via the

312: href="https://man.openbsd.org/openrsync.1">openrsync(1)</a> connection
313: timeout that <a
314: href="https://man.openbsd.org/rpki-client.8">rpki-client(8)</a> uses
315: to 15 seconds.
316:
1.12 benno 317: <li>Made use of the fact that repositories are unique objects in <a

1.14 benno 320: <li>Enabled <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pkg_add.1">pkg_add(1)</a> caching by default.
1.19 benno 321: <li>Changed the tied algorithm in <a
322: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pkg_add.1">pkg_add(1)</a> to prevent
323: O(n^2) behavior when packages contain several hundred copies of the
324: same file.
1.29 benno 325: <li>Added a "processing" message for when <a
326: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pkg_add.1">pkg_add(1)</a> is
327: transferring data to inform the user that pkg_add is still working.
328:
1.19 benno 329:
1.12 benno 330: <li>Fixed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/kbd.8">kbd(8)</a> so it
331: doesn't fail silently when executed by a regular user.
1.13 benno 332: <li>Prevented a crash in <a
333: href="https://man.openbsd.org/vi">vi(1)</a> when cursor key support is disabled.
334: <li>Updated <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/vi">vi(1)</a> to apply
335: expandtab to the output of a ! command.
336: <li>Added missing uuid_dec_le() to init_fp() so <a
337: href="https://man.openbsd.org/fdisk.8">fdisk(8)</a> -A works on
338: big-endian architectures.
1.14 benno 339: <li>Aligned <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/fdisk.8">fdisk(8)</a>
340: logic with that used in the kernel to allow the protective EFI GPT
341: partition to be in MBR partitions 0-3, not just 0.
342: <li>Prevented use of "-u" when <a
343: href="https://man.openbsd.org/fdisk.8">fdisk(8)</a> is operating on
344: GPT formatted disks.
1.29 benno 345: <li>Stopped telling <a

348: <li>Make <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/fdisk.8">fdisk(8)</a>
349: reject input of excessive length.
350: <li>Fixed an <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/fdisk.8">fdisk(8)</a>
351: regression to allow editing an MBR of all zeroes.
352: <li>Changed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/fdisk.8">fdisk(8)</a> to
353: restrict user actions if neither GPT nor MBR structures can be found
354: on the disk.
1.32 benno 355: <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/fdisk.8">fdisk(8)</a> print
356: a warning when an MBR partition starts or extends past the end of the
357: device.
358: <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/fdisk.8">fdisk(8)</a> print
359: a warning when a GPT partition start or end is outside the usable LBA
360: area of the device.
1.14 benno 361:
362: <li>In the <i>sndio</i> library, added the function <a
363: href="https://man.openbsd.org/sio_flush.3">sio_flush(3)</a> to stop
364: playback immediately. Altered <a
365: href="https://man.openbsd.org/sndiod.8">sndiod(8)</a> to wait until
366: the buffer is drained before closing the device.
367: <li>Installed useful <a

1.11 benno 747: </ul>
748: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/rpki-client.8">rpki-client(8)</a> saw some changes:
749: <ul>
1.12 benno 750: <li>Allowed more than one CRL URI in certificates.
1.11 benno 751: <li>Do not apply timezone offsets when converting X509 times. X509
752: times are in UTC and comparing them to times in different timezones

1.11 benno 785: slow.
786: <li>Abort a currently running RRDP request process when the per-repository
787: timeout is reached.
788: <li>Permit multiple AccessDescription entries in SIA X.509 extensions. While

1.13 benno 790: not treat occurrence as a fatal error.
1.11 benno 791: <li>Resolve a potential for a race condition in non-atomic RRDP deltas.
792: <li>Fix some memory leaks.
793: <li>Improve compliance with the HTTP protocol specification.
794: </ul>
795:

1.14 benno 814: <li>In <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospfd.8">ospfd(8)</a>,
1.11 benno 815: relax the limitations on what is an acceptable unicast IP. There are no
816: more experiments in IPv4 and so there is less reason for network
817: daemons to deny formerly experimental IP space. Multicast IPs
1.13 benno 818: (224/4) and loopback (127/8) are still disallowed.
1.14 benno 819: <li>Added check to <a

1250: <section id=sourcecode>
1251: <h3>Notes about the source code</h3>
1252: <p>
1253: <code>src.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src</code>.
1254: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
1255: which are in a separate archive.
1256: To extract:
1257: <blockquote><pre>
1258: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src</kbd>
1259: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
1260: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</kbd>
1261: </pre></blockquote>
1262: <p>
1263: <code>sys.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src/sys</code>.
1264: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
1265: To extract:
1266: <blockquote><pre>
1267: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</kbd>
1268: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
1269: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</kbd>
1270: </pre></blockquote>
1271: <p>
1272: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
1273: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
1274: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
1275: Using these files
1276: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
1277: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

1283: <h3>Ports Tree</h3>
1284: <p>
1285: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
1286: <blockquote><pre>
1287: # <kbd>cd /usr</kbd>
1288: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</kbd>
1289: </pre></blockquote>
1290: <p>
1291: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
1292: if you know nothing about ports
1293: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
1294: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
1295: OpenBSD ports system.
1296: <p>
1297: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
1298: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
1299: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
1300: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
1301: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
1302: with a command like:
1303: <blockquote><pre>
1304: # <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
1305: # <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_7_2</kbd>
1306: </pre></blockquote>
1307: <p>
1308: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
1309: server.]
1310: <p>
1311: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1312: ports for the 7.2 release will be made available if problems arise.
1313: <p>
1314: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
1315: would like to know more, the mailing list
1316: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
