  <ul>
+ <!-- 2016-03-31 -->
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/tftpd.8">tftpd(8)</a>, go in the background much later to reduce possible silent failures.
+ <li>If one of the TCP SYN cache buckets overflow, it might be a collision attack against the hash function. Mitigate this attack by reseeding the hash function as soon as possible.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/uslcom.4">uslcom(4)</a>, add support for the USB console port on Aruba 7xxx wireless controllers.
+ <!-- 2016-03-30 -->
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>, remove fallback from moduli to "primes" file that was deprecated in 2001 and fix log messages referring to primes file (bz#2559).
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/wsmouse.4">wsmouse(4)</a>, add support for multitouch input.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/rdistd.1">rdistd(1)</a>, properly create directories that do not exist on the destination.
+ <li>Improve support for alphas without all IEEE-mode instructions.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/gcc.1">gcc(1)</a>, fix optimization for alphas without the "precise arithmetic trap" extension.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/tmux.1">tmux(1)</a>, bump the <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/listen.2">listen(2)</a> backlog up from 16 to 128.
+ <li>Implement proxy ARP for ART based on mpath support.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/acpi.4">acpi(4)</a>, hook up the gpio interrupt on devices that use it for card detection. This makes the SD card slot on machines based on Intel's Bay Trail SoC fully functional.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/bytgpio.4">bytgpio(4)</a>, add support for gpio-based interrupts.
+ <li>Add <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/getlogin_r.2">getlogin_r(2)</a> system call that checks and returns errors like the userspace getlogin_r() API.
+ <li>Remove MLINKS from base. They are no longer required by <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/mandoc.1">mandoc(1)</a>.
+ <!-- 2016-03-29 -->
+ <li>Enable <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/oce.4">oce(4)</a> on sparc64.
+ <li>In binutils, fix fallout from the switch to binutils 2.17: the binaries created by 2.17 aren't recognized by the in-tree <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/gdb.1">gdb(1)</a> because it's built with the bfd code from 2.15.
+ <li>Add the net.inet.tcp.synuselimit <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/sysctl.8">sysctl(8)</a> to adjust tcp_syn_use_limit. This is convenient to test the feature and may be useful to defend against syn flooding in a denial of service condition.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/authpf.8">authpf(8)</a>, avoid a dereference of a null object.
+ <!-- 2016-03-28 -->
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/tcpdump.8">tcpdump(8)</a>, properly check for the end of captured packet while printing CDP packets.
+ <li>Ensure that a thread that calls <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/sched_yield.2">sched_yield(2)</a> ends up on the run queue behind all its sibling threads. This results in significant improvements for processes that suffer from lock, most notably firefox.
+ <li>Add <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/bytgpio.4">bytgpio(4)</a>, a driver for the gpio controllers found on Intel's Bay Trail SoC.
+ <!-- 2016-03-27 -->
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/netstart.8">netstart(8)</a>, don't delete the 224/4 route unless it's being done to ensure that a -reject route can be added. This restores the ability to set an interface route before daemons are started.
+ <li>Avoid an attack that could prevent reseeding of the hash function used for the hash buckets in the TCP SYN cache.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/sdhc.4">sdhc(4)</a>, make it possible to override the standard card detect mechanism to appease the SD controller on Intel's Bay Trail SoC.
+ <li>Avoid a NULL pointer dereference when pulling and unmounting a <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/umass.4">umass(4)</a> USB stick.
+ <!-- 2016-03-26 -->
+ <li>In libssl, fix a memory leak.
+ <li>Switch from the SolidRun i.MX6 U-Boot to mainline U-Boot on the CuBox-i.
+ <li>Always include the route priority in routing messages.
+ <li>Do not populate RTAX_NETMASK when sending a routing message for RTF_HOST entries. This preserves old behavior with ART and fixes a regression.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/rc.d.8">rc.d(8)</a>, make it possible to get usage as a non-root user.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/less.1">less(1)</a> and <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ul.1">ul(1)</a>, improve handling of ambiguous overstrike sequences.
+ <!-- 2016-03-24 -->
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/gcc.1">gcc(1)</a> on arm, change the default arch target from strongarm (armv4) to arm9e (armv5te without xscale extensions).
+ <li>Enable ART (Allotment Routing Table).
+ <li>Ensure that a found proxy ARP entry has the correct flag.
+ <!-- 2016-03-23 -->
+ <li>In kernel clock, set ticks 15 seconds before its value wraps. This helps to identify issues around ticks wrap in 15 minutes instead of 240ish days.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/kdump.1">kdump(1)</a>, display NAMI records and AF_UNIX <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/socket.2">socket(2)</a> paths with <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/vis.3">vis(3)</a>.
+ <li>Update to tzdata2016c from ftp.iana.org.
+ <!-- 2016-03-22 -->
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/pipex.4">pipex(4)</a>, don't leak an mbuf when copying a packet fails.
+ <li>Remove ARM10 and ARM11 support.
+ <li>Fix various issues with bad gateways being picked up by <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a>.
+ <li>Remove ARM9E support.
+ <!-- 2016-03-21 -->
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/npppd.8">npppd(8)</a>, log the reply message from RADIUS server when the authentication fails.
+ <li>Add <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/pledge.2">pledge(2)</a> to <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/tokeninit.8">tokeninit(8)</a>.
+ <li>Rename <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/OpenBSD-5.9/sendsyslog2.2">sendsyslog2(2)</a> to <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/sendsyslog.2">sendsyslog(2)</a>.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ral.4">ral(4)</a>, improvements for the RT2860 chip:
+ <ul>
+ <li>Fix watchdog timeouts and dropped frames under load.
+ <li>Fix a bug where oactive is not set and mbufs are dropped.
+ </ul>
+ <li>Add a counter in the TCP SYN cache and in <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/netstat.1">netstat(1)</a> -s to show how often the hash function is reseeded and the random bucket distribution changes.
+ <li>On octeon, use the list of the usable memory regions provided by U-Boot instead of the hardcoded regions in memory setup.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ksh.1">ksh(1)</a>, make the "command" builtin POSIX-compliant and consistent with other current shells.
+ <!-- 2016-03-20 -->
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ld.so.1">ld.so(1)</a>, let the stack smash handler log to console directly if it is not possible to deliver to <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/syslogd.8">syslogd(8)</a>.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/vnet.4">vnet(4)</a>, plug a memory leak in <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ioctl.2">ioctl(2)</a> code path.
+ <li>Many improvements of libedit, in particular with regard to UTF-8 support.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/axen.4">axen(4)</a>, initialize the hardware on reset. This allows it to attach reliably and pass traffic, and prevents a panic when unplugging it.
+ <li>Import libdrm 2.4.67.
+ <!-- 2016-03-19 -->
+ <li>Attach <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/dwctwo.4">dwctwo(4)</a> only on Octeon models that have a DWC2 controller.
+ <li>Remove support for StrongARM (SA1), IXP12x0, IXP425 and XScale 80200.

+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/pkg_add.1">pkg_add(1)</a>, use a new _pkgfetch user for separation instead of the _pfetch user.
+ <li>Remove ARM8 and ARM9T support.
+ <!-- 2016-03-17 -->
+ <li>Add octuctl(4), a driver for the Octeon II USB Controller Interface, and attachments for <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ehci.4">ehci(4)</a> and <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ohci.4">ohci(4)</a>.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/puc.4">puc(4)</a>, add support for the TXIC TX382B (currently TX/RX FIFO is not working).
+ <!-- 2016-03-16 -->
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/column.1">column(1)</a>, <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/lpq.1">lpq(1)</a>, <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ls.1">ls(1)</a>, <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/newfs.8">newfs(8)</a>, <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ps.1">ps(1)</a>, <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/rusers.1">rusers(1)</a>, <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/sed.1">sed(1)</a> and <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/growfs.8">growfs(8)</a>, use the COLUMNS environment variable first, and either terminal width or a hardcoded value (typically 80) as appropriate.
+ <li>In libssl, use <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/explicit_bzero.3">explicit_bzero(3)</a> for ASN1 objects on free. Too often these contain sensitive information.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/vi.1">vi(1)</a>, add error checking for the COLUMNS and LINES environment variables to avoid a crash.
+ <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/sd.4">sd(4)</a>, prevent a use-after-free of the scsi link structure during detach.
+ <li>Expose new and much simpler <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/audio.4">audio(4)</a> ioctls.
  <!-- 2016-03-15 -->
  <li>In <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/npppd.8">npppd(8)</a>, transition to "Req-Sent" had been missing when RTA in "Opened". This caused a timer event leak.
  <li>Update to tzdata2016b from ftp.iana.org.
