Changes made between OpenBSD 3.3 and OpenBSD-current
This is a partial list of the major machine-independent changes
(i.e., these are the changes people ask about most often). Port
specific changes have also been made, and are sometimes mentioned
in the pages for the specific platforms.
Changes to the ports collection are documented
here.
Note: Problems for which patches exist are marked in red.
We are working on OpenBSD-current.
The following list sums up (almost) all the changes made up to March 29.
- More fixes to iha(4).
- Stop pmdb dumping core on stripped executables.
- Show in log output the list against which spamd(8) matched.
- Have spamd(8) report exactly how much of the filthy spammer's time was wasted.
- Add a missing strdup(3) error check in pwd_mkdb(8).
- Change login_passwd(8) from setuid(root) to setuid(_shadow).
- Remove OCHIO* binary compatability hacks from ch(4).
- When retrieving the size of a ccd(4) device, check the device is initialised before attempting to open it.
- Add USER_LDT to the list of kernel options(4) controllable via sysctl(3).
- Sync the SMP branch to 3.3.
- Improve iha(4)'s REQUEST_SENSE handling based on hard-won experience with osiop(4).
- Actually look for the lpr(1) -q option when calling getopt(3).
- Fix handling of -f and -h options to lpr(1).
- Improve error handling for invalid pf(4) cbq and priq flags.
- 3.3 -> 3.3-current.
