OpenBSD -current changelog
This is a partial list of the major machine-independent changes
(i.e., these are the changes people ask about most often). Machine
specific changes have also been made, and are sometimes mentioned
in the pages for the specific platforms.
Note: Problems for which patches exist are marked in red.
Changes made between OpenBSD 4.6 and -current
- Updated the time zone data to tzdata2009k.
- Make sure the xf86-video-sunffb disable the hardware cursor before exit.
- Added "text" (executable) to the fstat(1) and fuser output.
- Synced mandoc to 1.8.0.
- Fix potential mbuf leaks in the NFSv2 rpc code.
- Added bus_space_[read,write]_raw_[248] functions for sgi. Makes wi(4) devices work.
- Updated the bus_dma(9) on sgi machines to be closer to the other platforms. Adds a working bus_dmamap_load_uio() which in turn makes crypto(4) devices work.
- More careful format string parsing in printf(1).
- Added Edimax EW-7711UTn to the list of supported run(4) devices.
- Back out the one-slot queue length commits for trunk(4) and vlan(4).

- Make PCI-PCI bridge initialization code on sgi bus-independent.
- Added round, roundf, trunc and truncf for hppa libm.
- Unbreak the moko builds, move SOFTSERIAL to SOFTTTY and a pmap change for moko.
- Added gem(4) on sbus(4) for sparc GENERIC and SUN4M kernels.
- Added a bus_dma(9) interface for sparc sun4m machines.
- Added rdomain checks in the sppp(4) case.
- Make the vlan send queue one slot long, to force packets off the virtual interface queue down to the physical interface immediately.
- Synced mandoc to 1.7.23.
- Make fstat(1) accept numeric UIDs as well as usernames.
- Enabled gem(4) at sbus for sparc64 GENERIC and RAMDISK kernels.
- Enabled hotspare rebuilds for softraid(4) RAID1.
- Added support for global hotspares to softraid(4)
- When rebooting sgi machines, pass a request to the PROM to skip diagnostics and memory initializations. Shortens reboot times.

- Fixed link state handling in the ix(4) driver.
- Added support for the onsemi cat34ts02 and cat6095 sensors in sdtemp(4).
- Reverted the MCLGETI allocator for sk(4).

- Better invoking of login shells in tmux(1).
- Made ripd(8) aware of MPLS routes.
