Allow suppression of the rounding of disklabel(8) partition locations to bsize boundaries. Also mention that such rounding is being done, so as to not surprise the user. Fixes problems reproducing a "pre-4K fix" disklabel.
fdisk(8) will now return relevant errno string when erroring out.
Accept "makewhatis" as an alias for "mandocdb(8)".
Use the traditional name "whatis.db" for the mandocdb(8) databases. Note: If you run "sudo mandocdb" after this, the old apropos(1) and whatis(1) will no longer work. To get temporary copies of the new ones, run: cd /usr/bin; rm -f apropos whatis; ln -s mandoc apropos; ln -s mandoc whatis. !
Impliment binary compatability of the mandocdb(8) databases across architectures. Fore example, it is now possible to create databases on sparc64 and use them on i386 and vice versa.
Implement mandocdb(8) test mode (makewhatis -t), required for pkg_create(1). Always do all consistency checks; when any one fails, decide whether to print a message, or skip the file, or both, or none. Other cleanups: bail out on conflicting options; do not crash with -a if there are plain files in the root dir.
Force arcofi(4) TX gain to minus infinity when the user asks to only keep the input source enabled. Document the supported encodings and mixer items in the manual page, and the fact that all output sources share the same volume (GX gain) setting. --- 69,117 ----
- On sparc64 installboot(8/sparc64) is reworked to be more like installboot(8)s of other architectures. Because it now uses opendev(3) internally it is possible to use "short forms" of device names on the command line (e.g. sd0a instead of /dev/rsd0c). +
- The Xenocara wsdisplay(4) framebuffer driver wsfb(4) is updated to version 0.4.0. +
- The binary file descriptor library of binutils 2.17 learns to properly recognize threads in OpenBSD core dumps. + +
- The binary file descriptor library of binutils 2.15 learns to properly recognize threads in OpenBSD core dumps. +
- softraid(4) is extended with a concatenating discipline (also see bioctl(8)). +
- user(8) no longer does the portability dance and removes #ifdefs which conditionalize BSD extensions. +
- On sgi the rsu(4) driver is added to the GENERIC kernel configuration. (Since it requires firmware it cannot be added to RAMDISK.) + +
- On hp300 color support is added for tvrx(4/hp300); one may also want to read intro(4/hp300) and dio(4/hp300). +
- At the deepest level of hppa the encoding of DIAG instructions is fixed, so that cache SID hashing will now correctly be disabled on PCXS, PCXT and PCXT´ processors. +
- In user(8) a format string is fixed to reflect the actual size of the argument. + +
- cwm(1) no longer moves the same client multiple times to the same group, thus no longer incrementing a counter for hidden clients if the group is hidden. +
- ps(1) suppresses the header line if there would be nothing to display. +
- A temporary fix is applied to the network stack to escape hardware-checksumming if an interface is in a bridge; this fixes a problem where checksumming would not be computed if you have a bridge with at least one interface with hardware checksumming and another without. + +
- tcpdump(8) also prints PPP-Max-Payload headers (for RFC 4638 PPPoe). +
- A FreeBSD telnetd(8) overflow advisory also affects our telnet(1) client: in encryption mode, ensure the given key length doesn't excess the maximum allowed key length to prevent an out-of-bounds memory access. +
- The ntpd(8) configuration file parser fixes a rdomain issue. +
- softraid(4) cleans up its metadata initialization process. +
- The rc.d(8) script of sndiod(1) no longer supports the reload action, as this was a no-op. +
- In the kernel it is ensured that no all-zero DUIDs are generated (they are considered to be non-existent). In addition a new DK_LABELVALID flag is introduced to mark validated disklabels, and thus to avoid using invalid disklabels in the future. +
- colrm(1), expand(1), fold(1), head(1), last(1), mkstr(1), tset(1) and vi(1) were all already part of 1BSD, as is now properly documented in their corresponding manual pages. +
- mandocdb(8) will now accept multiple lines in NAME, and will not trim the description to 70 characters in the database (it'll do so during output). It also improves compatibility with 3p by interpreting \-\- as a Nm-Nd separator. + +
- librthread actively removes SIGTHR from user sigset_t, because it uses this signal internally for thread cancellation purposes. This required implementations of wrappers for some more signal functions. +
- The pthread_kill(3) of librthread will correctly return the errno on failure, instead of -1. +
- smtpd(8) no longer uses a separate queue for bounce messages; the bounce/ path is no longer used. +
- tmux(1) is extended to support a larger history, minimizes redundant log messages and does some code reordering for more local and less global variables. Support is added for the ESC[s and ESC[u save/restore cursor-position key sequences. And finally $HOME (or ~) may now be used as default-path in tmux.conf. +
- The user(8) program will no longer append a redundant entry for the user to its primary group, thus mirroring adduser(8) behaviour. + +
- More CPU features as reported by CPUID become known on the amd64 platform. +
- softraid(4) implements generic set-chunk-state and set-volume-state functions which cover the no redundancy/no rebuild case, and uses these for the AOE, CRYPTO and RAID 0 disciplines. +
- mandocdb(8) becomes more clever in indexing cross-architecture manuals. +
- Now that mandoc(1) took over makewhatis(8), extend the whatis(1) manpage to cover extended features.
- Allow suppression of the rounding of disklabel(8) partition locations to bsize boundaries. Also mention that such rounding is being done, so as to not surprise the user. Fixes problems reproducing a "pre-4K fix" disklabel.
- fdisk(8) will now return relevant errno string when erroring out.

- Compute mandatory UDP checksum for ipsec(4) IPv6 packets.
- No longer attempt to run pf_translate on pf(4) fragments. Also don't do af translation if pf_translate didn't succeed. !
- rc.conf(8) adapted after recent rc scripts change.
- For rc.d(8), move mandatory flags for ftpd(8), identd(8) and popa3d(8) from daemon_flags to daemon.
- Update to libXi 1.4.5.
- Respect mount(2) MNT_FORCE flag in ntfs_unmount and proceed even if a system vnode is being held. Prevents crashes with forced unmounts. Silence ntfs_reclaim so that kernel won't spit out vprint's angrily. --- 128,134 ----
