Users should ensure that this option is enabled in - their kernel or upgrade userspace to r302092 before upgrading their - kernel. - -20160527: - CAM now strips the leading spaces from each SCSI disk's serial number. - This will affect users who create UFS filesystems on SCSI disks using - those disk's diskid device nodes. For example, if /etc/fstab - previously contained a line like - "/dev/diskid/DISK-%20%20%20%20%20%20%20ABCDEFG0123456", you should - change it to "/dev/diskid/DISK-ABCDEFG0123456". Users of geom - transforms like gmirror may also be affected. ZFS users should - generally be fine. - -20160523: - The bitstring(3) API has been updated with new functionality and - improved performance. But it is binary-incompatible with the old API. - Objects built with the new headers may not be linked against objects - built with the old headers. - -20160520: - The brk and sbrk functions have been removed from libc on arm64. - Binutils from ports has been updated to not link to these - functions and should be updated to the latest version before - installing a new libc. - -20160517: - The armv6 port now defaults to hard float ABI. Limited support - for running both hardfloat and soft float on the same system - is available using the libraries installed with -DWITH_LIBSOFT. - This has only been tested as an upgrade path for installworld - and packages may fail or need manual intervention to run. New - packages will be needed. - - To update an existing self-hosted armv6hf system, you must add - TARGET_ARCH=armv6 on the make command line for both the build - and the install steps. - -20160510: - Kernel modules compiled outside of a kernel build now default to - installing to /boot/modules instead of /boot/kernel. Many kernel - modules built this way (such as those in ports) already overrode - KMODDIR explicitly to install into /boot/modules. However, - manually building and installing a module from /sys/modules will - now install to /boot/modules instead of /boot/kernel. - -20160414: - The CAM I/O scheduler has been committed to the kernel. There should be - no user visible impact. This does enable NCQ Trim on ada SSDs. While the - list of known rogues that claim support for this but actually corrupt - data is believed to be complete, be on the lookout for data - corruption. The known rogue list is believed to be complete: - - o Crucial MX100, M550 drives with MU01 firmware. - o Micron M510 and M550 drives with MU01 firmware. - o Micron M500 prior to MU07 firmware - o Samsung 830, 840, and 850 all firmwares - o FCCT M500 all firmwares - - Crucial has firmware http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/support-ssd-firmware - with working NCQ TRIM. For Micron branded drives, see your sales rep for - updated firmware. Black listed drives will work correctly because these - drives work correctly so long as no NCQ TRIMs are sent to them. Given - this list is the same as found in Linux, it's believed there are no - other rogues in the market place. All other models from the above - vendors work. - - To be safe, if you are at all concerned, you can quirk each of your - drives to prevent NCQ from being sent by setting: - kern.cam.ada.X.quirks="0x2" - in loader.conf. If the drive requires the 4k sector quirk, set the - quirks entry to 0x3. - -20160330: - The FAST_DEPEND build option has been removed and its functionality is - now the one true way. The old mkdep(1) style of 'make depend' has - been removed. See 20160311 for further details. - -20160317: - Resource range types have grown from unsigned long to uintmax_t. All - drivers, and anything using libdevinfo, need to be recompiled. - -20160311: - WITH_FAST_DEPEND is now enabled by default for in-tree and out-of-tree - builds. It no longer runs mkdep(1) during 'make depend', and the - 'make depend' stage can safely be skipped now as it is auto ran - when building 'make all' and will generate all SRCS and DPSRCS before - building anything else. Dependencies are gathered at compile time with - -MF flags kept in separate .depend files per object file. Users should - run 'make cleandepend' once if using -DNO_CLEAN to clean out older - stale .depend files. - -20160306: - On amd64, clang 3.8.0 can now insert sections of type AMD64_UNWIND into - kernel modules. Therefore, if you load any kernel modules at boot time, - please install the boot loaders after you install the kernel, but before - rebooting, e.g.: - - make buildworld - make buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE - make installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE - make -C sys/boot install - - - Then follow the usual steps, described in the General Notes section, - below. - -20160305: - Clang, llvm, lldb and compiler-rt have been upgraded to 3.8.0. Please - see the 20141231 entry below for information about prerequisites and - upgrading, if you are not already using clang 3.5.0 or higher. - -20160301: - The AIO subsystem is now a standard part of the kernel. The - VFS_AIO kernel option and aio.ko kernel module have been removed. - Due to stability concerns, asynchronous I/O requests are only - permitted on sockets and raw disks by default. To enable - asynchronous I/O requests on all file types, set the - vfs.aio.enable_unsafe sysctl to a non-zero value. - -20160226: - The ELF object manipulation tool objcopy is now provided by the - ELF Tool Chain project rather than by GNU binutils. It should be a - drop-in replacement, with the addition of arm64 support. The - (temporary) src.conf knob WITHOUT_ELFCOPY_AS_OBJCOPY knob may be set - to obtain the GNU version if necessary. - -20160129: - Building ZFS pools on top of zvols is prohibited by default. That - feature has never worked safely; it's always been prone to deadlocks. - Using a zvol as the backing store for a VM guest's virtual disk will - still work, even if the guest is using ZFS. Legacy behavior can be - restored by setting vfs.zfs.vol.recursive=1. - -20160119: - The NONE and HPN patches has been removed from OpenSSH. They are - still available in the security/openssh-portable port. - -20160113: - With the addition of ypldap(8), a new _ypldap user is now required - during installworld. "mergemaster -p" can be used to add the user - prior to installworld, as documented in the handbook. - -20151216: - The tftp loader (pxeboot) now uses the option root-path directive. As a - consequence it no longer looks for a pxeboot.4th file on the tftp - server. Instead it uses the regular /boot infrastructure as with the - other loaders. - -20151211: - The code to start recording plug and play data into the modules has - been committed. While the old tools will properly build a new kernel, - a number of warnings about "unknown metadata record 4" will be produced - for an older kldxref. To avoid such warnings, make sure to rebuild - the kernel toolchain (or world). Make sure that you have r292078 or - later when trying to build 292077 or later before rebuilding. - -20151207: - Debug data files are now built by default with 'make buildworld' and - installed with 'make installworld'. This facilitates debugging but - requires more disk space both during the build and for the installed - world. Debug files may be disabled by setting WITHOUT_DEBUG_FILES=yes - in src.conf(5). - -20151130: - r291527 changed the internal interface between the nfsd.ko and - nfscommon.ko modules. As such, they must both be upgraded to-gether. - __FreeBSD_version has been bumped because of this. - -20151108: - Add support for unicode collation strings leads to a change of - order of files listed by ls(1) for example. To get back to the old - behaviour, set LC_COLLATE environment variable to "C". - - Databases administrators will need to reindex their databases given - collation results will be different. - - Due to a bug in install(1) it is recommended to remove the ancient - locales before running make installworld. - - rm -rf /usr/share/locale/* - -20151030: - The OpenSSL has been upgraded to 1.0.2d. Any binaries requiring - libcrypto.so.7 or libssl.so.7 must be recompiled. - -20151020: - Qlogic 24xx/25xx firmware images were updated from 5.5.0 to 7.3.0. - Kernel modules isp_2400_multi and isp_2500_multi were removed and - should be replaced with isp_2400 and isp_2500 modules respectively. - -20151017: - The build previously allowed using 'make -n' to not recurse into - sub-directories while showing what commands would be executed, and - 'make -n -n' to recursively show commands. Now 'make -n' will recurse - and 'make -N' will not. - -20151012: - If you specify SENDMAIL_MC or SENDMAIL_CF in make.conf, mergemaster - and etcupdate will now use this file. A custom sendmail.cf is now - updated via this mechanism rather than via installworld. If you had - excluded sendmail.cf in mergemaster.rc or etcupdate.conf, you may - want to remove the exclusion or change it to "always install". - /etc/mail/sendmail.cf is now managed the same way regardless of - whether SENDMAIL_MC/SENDMAIL_CF is used. If you are not using - SENDMAIL_MC/SENDMAIL_CF there should be no change in behavior. - -20151011: - Compatibility shims for legacy ATA device names have been removed. - It includes ATA_STATIC_ID kernel option, kern.cam.ada.legacy_aliases - and kern.geom.raid.legacy_aliases loader tunables, kern.devalias.* - environment variables, /dev/ad* and /dev/ar* symbolic links. - -20151006: - Clang, llvm, lldb, compiler-rt and libc++ have been upgraded to 3.7.0. - Please see the 20141231 entry below for information about prerequisites - and upgrading, if you are not already using clang 3.5.0 or higher. - -20150924: - Kernel debug files have been moved to /usr/lib/debug/boot/kernel/, - and renamed from .symbols to .debug. This reduces the size requirements - on the boot partition or file system and provides consistency with - userland debug files. - - When using the supported kernel installation method the - /usr/lib/debug/boot/kernel directory will be renamed (to kernel.old) - as is done with /boot/kernel. - - Developers wishing to maintain the historical behavior of installing - debug files in /boot/kernel/ can set KERN_DEBUGDIR="" in src.conf(5). - -20150827: - The wireless drivers had undergone changes that remove the 'parent - interface' from the ifconfig -l output. The rc.d network scripts - used to check presence of a parent interface in the list, so old - scripts would fail to start wireless networking. Thus, etcupdate(3) - or mergemaster(8) run is required after kernel update, to update your - rc.d scripts in /etc. - -20150827: - pf no longer supports 'scrub fragment crop' or 'scrub fragment drop-ovl' - These configurations are now automatically interpreted as - 'scrub fragment reassemble'. - -20150817: - Kernel-loadable modules for the random(4) device are back. To use - them, the kernel must have - - device random - options RANDOM_LOADABLE - - kldload(8) can then be used to load random_fortuna.ko - or random_yarrow.ko. Please note that due to the indirect - function calls that the loadable modules need to provide, - the build-in variants will be slightly more efficient. - - The random(4) kernel option RANDOM_DUMMY has been retired due to - unpopularity. It was not all that useful anyway. - -20150813: - The WITHOUT_ELFTOOLCHAIN_TOOLS src.conf(5) knob has been retired. - Control over building the ELF Tool Chain tools is now provided by - the WITHOUT_TOOLCHAIN knob. - -20150810: - The polarity of Pulse Per Second (PPS) capture events with the - uart(4) driver has been corrected. Prior to this change the PPS - "assert" event corresponded to the trailing edge of a positive PPS - pulse and the "clear" event was the leading edge of the next pulse. - - As the width of a PPS pulse in a typical GPS receiver is on the - order of 1 millisecond, most users will not notice any significant - difference with this change. - - Anyone who has compensated for the historical polarity reversal by - configuring a negative offset equal to the pulse width will need to - remove that workaround. - -20150809: - The default group assigned to /dev/dri entries has been changed - from 'wheel' to 'video' with the id of '44'. If you want to have - access to the dri devices please add yourself to the video group - with: - - # pw groupmod video -m $USER - -20150806: - The menu.rc and loader.rc files will now be replaced during - upgrades. Please migrate local changes to menu.rc.local and - loader.rc.local instead. - -20150805: - GNU Binutils versions of addr2line, c++filt, nm, readelf, size, - strings and strip have been removed. The src.conf(5) knob - WITHOUT_ELFTOOLCHAIN_TOOLS no longer provides the binutils tools. - -20150728: - As ZFS requires more kernel stack pages than is the default on some - architectures e.g. i386, it now warns if KSTACK_PAGES is less than - ZFS_MIN_KSTACK_PAGES (which is 4 at the time of writing). - - Please consider using 'options KSTACK_PAGES=X' where X is greater - than or equal to ZFS_MIN_KSTACK_PAGES i.e. 4 in such configurations. - -20150706: - sendmail has been updated to 8.15.2. Starting with FreeBSD 11.0 - and sendmail 8.15, sendmail uses uncompressed IPv6 addresses by - default, i.e., they will not contain "::". For example, instead - of ::1, it will be 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1. This permits a zero subnet - to have a more specific match, such as different map entries for - IPv6:0:0 vs IPv6:0. This change requires that configuration - data (including maps, files, classes, custom ruleset, etc.) must - use the same format, so make certain such configuration data is - upgrading. As a very simple check search for patterns like - 'IPv6:[0-9a-fA-F:]*::' and 'IPv6::'. To return to the old - behavior, set the m4 option confUSE_COMPRESSED_IPV6_ADDRESSES or - the cf option UseCompressedIPv6Addresses. - -20150630: - The default kernel entropy-processing algorithm is now - Fortuna, replacing Yarrow. - - Assuming you have 'device random' in your kernel config - file, the configurations allow a kernel option to override - this default. You may choose *ONE* of: - - options RANDOM_YARROW # Legacy /dev/random algorithm. - options RANDOM_DUMMY # Blocking-only driver. - - If you have neither, you get Fortuna. For most people, - read no further, Fortuna will give a /dev/random that works - like it always used to, and the difference will be irrelevant. - - If you remove 'device random', you get *NO* kernel-processed - entropy at all. This may be acceptable to folks building - embedded systems, but has complications. Carry on reading, - and it is assumed you know what you need. - - *PLEASE* read random(4) and random(9) if you are in the - habit of tweaking kernel configs, and/or if you are a member - of the embedded community, wanting specific and not-usual - behaviour from your security subsystems. - - NOTE!! If you use RANDOM_DUMMY and/or have no 'device - random', you will NOT have a functioning /dev/random, and - many cryptographic features will not work, including SSH. - You may also find strange behaviour from the random(3) set - of library functions, in particular sranddev(3), srandomdev(3) - and arc4random(3). The reason for this is that the KERN_ARND - sysctl only returns entropy if it thinks it has some to - share, and with RANDOM_DUMMY or no 'device random' this - will never happen. - -20150623: - An additional fix for the issue described in the 20150614 sendmail - entry below has been committed in revision 284717. - -20150616: - FreeBSD's old make (fmake) has been removed from the system. It is - available as the devel/fmake port or via pkg install fmake. - -20150615: - The fix for the issue described in the 20150614 sendmail entry - below has been committed in revision 284436. The work - around described in that entry is no longer needed unless the - default setting is overridden by a confDH_PARAMETERS configuration - setting of '5' or pointing to a 512 bit DH parameter file. - -20150614: - ALLOW_DEPRECATED_ATF_TOOLS/ATFFILE support has been removed from - atf.test.mk (included from bsd.test.mk). Please upgrade devel/atf - and devel/kyua to version 0.20+ and adjust any calling code to work - with Kyuafile and kyua. - -20150614: - The import of openssl to address the FreeBSD-SA-15:10.openssl - security advisory includes a change which rejects handshakes - with DH parameters below 768 bits. sendmail releases prior - to 8.15.2 (not yet released), defaulted to a 512 bit - DH parameter setting for client connections. To work around - this interoperability, sendmail can be configured to use a - 2048 bit DH parameter by: - - 1. Edit /etc/mail/`hostname`.mc - 2. If a setting for confDH_PARAMETERS does not exist or - exists and is set to a string beginning with '5', - replace it with '2'. - 3. If a setting for confDH_PARAMETERS exists and is set to - a file path, create a new file with: - openssl dhparam -out /path/to/file 2048 - 4. Rebuild the .cf file: - cd /etc/mail/; make; make install - 5. Restart sendmail: - cd /etc/mail/; make restart - - A sendmail patch is coming, at which time this file will be - updated. - -20150604: - Generation of legacy formatted entries have been disabled by default - in pwd_mkdb(8), as all base system consumers of the legacy formatted - entries were converted to use the new format by default when the new, - machine independent format have been added and supported since FreeBSD - 5.x. - - Please see the pwd_mkdb(8) manual page for further details. - -20150525: - Clang and llvm have been upgraded to 3.6.1 release. Please see the - 20141231 entry below for information about prerequisites and upgrading, - if you are not already using 3.5.0 or higher. - -20150521: - TI platform code switched to using vendor DTS files and this update - may break existing systems running on Beaglebone, Beaglebone Black, - and Pandaboard: - - - dtb files should be regenerated/reinstalled. Filenames are the - same but content is different now - - GPIO addressing was changed, now each GPIO bank (32 pins per bank) - has its own /dev/gpiocX device, e.g. pin 121 on /dev/gpioc0 in old - addressing scheme is now pin 25 on /dev/gpioc3. - - Pandaboard: /etc/ttys should be updated, serial console device is - now /dev/ttyu2, not /dev/ttyu0 - -20150501: - soelim(1) from gnu/usr.bin/groff has been replaced by usr.bin/soelim. - If you need the GNU extension from groff soelim(1), install groff - from package: pkg install groff, or via ports: textproc/groff. - -20150423: - chmod, chflags, chown and chgrp now affect symlinks in -R mode as - defined in symlink(7); previously symlinks were silently ignored. - -20150415: - The const qualifier has been removed from iconv(3) to comply with - POSIX. The ports tree is aware of this from r384038 onwards. - -20150416: - Libraries specified by LIBADD in Makefiles must have a corresponding - DPADD_ variable to ensure correct dependencies. This is now - enforced in src.libnames.mk. - -20150324: - From legacy ata(4) driver was removed support for SATA controllers - supported by more functional drivers ahci(4), siis(4) and mvs(4). - Kernel modules ataahci and ataadaptec were removed completely, - replaced by ahci and mvs modules respectively. - -20150315: - Clang, llvm and lldb have been upgraded to 3.6.0 release. Please see - the 20141231 entry below for information about prerequisites and - upgrading, if you are not already using 3.5.0 or higher. - -20150307: - The 32-bit PowerPC kernel has been changed to a position-independent - executable. This can only be booted with a version of loader(8) - newer than January 31, 2015, so make sure to update both world and - kernel before rebooting. - -20150217: - If you are running a -CURRENT kernel since r273872 (Oct 30th, 2014), - but before r278950, the RNG was not seeded properly. Immediately - upgrade the kernel to r278950 or later and regenerate any keys (e.g. - ssh keys or openssl keys) that were generated w/ a kernel from that - range. This does not affect programs that directly used /dev/random - or /dev/urandom. All userland uses of arc4random(3) are affected. - -20150210: - The autofs(4) ABI was changed in order to restore binary compatibility - with 10.1-RELEASE. The automountd(8) daemon needs to be rebuilt to work - with the new kernel. - -20150131: - The powerpc64 kernel has been changed to a position-independent - executable. This can only be booted with a new version of loader(8), - so make sure to update both world and kernel before rebooting. - -20150118: - Clang and llvm have been upgraded to 3.5.1 release. This is a bugfix - only release, no new features have been added. Please see the 20141231 - entry below for information about prerequisites and upgrading, if you - are not already using 3.5.0. - -20150107: - ELF tools addr2line, elfcopy (strip), nm, size, and strings are now - taken from the ELF Tool Chain project rather than GNU binutils. They - should be drop-in replacements, with the addition of arm64 support. - The WITHOUT_ELFTOOLCHAIN_TOOLS= knob may be used to obtain the - binutils tools, if necessary. See 20150805 for updated information. - -20150105: - The default Unbound configuration now enables remote control - using a local socket. Users who have already enabled the - local_unbound service should regenerate their configuration - by running "service local_unbound setup" as root. - -20150102: - The GNU texinfo and GNU info pages have been removed. - To be able to view GNU info pages please install texinfo from ports. - -20141231: - Clang, llvm and lldb have been upgraded to 3.5.0 release. - - As of this release, a prerequisite for building clang, llvm and lldb is - a C++11 capable compiler and C++11 standard library. This means that to - be able to successfully build the cross-tools stage of buildworld, with - clang as the bootstrap compiler, your system compiler or cross compiler - should either be clang 3.3 or later, or gcc 4.8 or later, and your - system C++ library should be libc++, or libdstdc++ from gcc 4.8 or - later. - - On any standard FreeBSD 10.x or 11.x installation, where clang and - libc++ are on by default (that is, on x86 or arm), this should work out - of the box. - - On 9.x installations where clang is enabled by default, e.g. on x86 and - powerpc, libc++ will not be enabled by default, so libc++ should be - built (with clang) and installed first. If both clang and libc++ are - missing, build clang first, then use it to build libc++. - - On 8.x and earlier installations, upgrade to 9.x first, and then follow - the instructions for 9.x above. - - Sparc64 and mips users are unaffected, as they still use gcc 4.2.1 by - default, and do not build clang. - - Many embedded systems are resource constrained, and will not be able to - build clang in a reasonable time, or in some cases at all. In those - cases, cross building bootable systems on amd64 is a workaround. - - This new version of clang introduces a number of new warnings, of which - the following are most likely to appear: - - -Wabsolute-value - - This warns in two cases, for both C and C++: - * When the code is trying to take the absolute value of an unsigned - quantity, which is effectively a no-op, and almost never what was - intended. The code should be fixed, if at all possible. If you are - sure that the unsigned quantity can be safely cast to signed, without - loss of information or undefined behavior, you can add an explicit - cast, or disable the warning. - - * When the code is trying to take an absolute value, but the called - abs() variant is for the wrong type, which can lead to truncation. - If you want to disable the warning instead of fixing the code, please - make sure that truncation will not occur, or it might lead to unwanted - side-effects. - - -Wtautological-undefined-compare and - -Wundefined-bool-conversion - - These warn when C++ code is trying to compare 'this' against NULL, while - 'this' should never be NULL in well-defined C++ code. However, there is - some legacy (pre C++11) code out there, which actively abuses this - feature, which was less strictly defined in previous C++ versions. - - Squid and openjdk do this, for example. The warning can be turned off - for C++98 and earlier, but compiling the code in C++11 mode might result - in unexpected behavior; for example, the parts of the program that are - unreachable could be optimized away. - -20141222: - The old NFS client and server (kernel options NFSCLIENT, NFSSERVER) - kernel sources have been removed. The .h files remain, since some - utilities include them. This will need to be fixed later. - If "mount -t oldnfs ..." is attempted, it will fail. - If the "-o" option on mountd(8), nfsd(8) or nfsstat(1) is used, - the utilities will report errors. - -20141121: - The handling of LOCAL_LIB_DIRS has been altered to skip addition of - directories to top level SUBDIR variable when their parent - directory is included in LOCAL_DIRS. Users with build systems with - such hierarchies and without SUBDIR entries in the parent - directory Makefiles should add them or add the directories to - LOCAL_DIRS. - -20141109: - faith(4) and faithd(8) have been removed from the base system. Faith - has been obsolete for a very long time. - -20141104: - vt(4), the new console driver, is enabled by default. It brings - support for Unicode and double-width characters, as well as - support for UEFI and integration with the KMS kernel video - drivers. - - You may need to update your console settings in /etc/rc.conf, - most probably the keymap. During boot, /etc/rc.d/syscons will - indicate what you need to do. - - vt(4) still has issues and lacks some features compared to - syscons(4). See the wiki for up-to-date information: - https://wiki.freebsd.org/Newcons - - If you want to keep using syscons(4), you can do so by adding - the following line to /boot/loader.conf: - kern.vty=sc - -20141102: - pjdfstest has been integrated into kyua as an opt-in test suite. - Please see share/doc/pjdfstest/README for more details on how to - execute it. - -20141009: - gperf has been removed from the base system for architectures - that use clang. Ports that require gperf will obtain it from the - devel/gperf port. - -20140923: - pjdfstest has been moved from tools/regression/pjdfstest to - contrib/pjdfstest . - -20140922: - At svn r271982, The default linux compat kernel ABI has been adjusted - to 2.6.18 in support of the linux-c6 compat ports infrastructure - update. If you wish to continue using the linux-f10 compat ports, - add compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.16 to your local sysctl.conf. Users are - encouraged to update their linux-compat packages to linux-c6 during - their next update cycle. - -20140729: - The ofwfb driver, used to provide a graphics console on PowerPC when - using vt(4), no longer allows mmap() of all physical memory. This - will prevent Xorg on PowerPC with some ATI graphics cards from - initializing properly unless x11-servers/xorg-server is updated to - 1.12.4_8 or newer. - -20140723: - The xdev targets have been converted to using TARGET and - TARGET_ARCH instead of XDEV and XDEV_ARCH. - -20140719: - The default unbound configuration has been modified to address - issues with reverse lookups on networks that use private - address ranges. If you use the local_unbound service, run - "service local_unbound setup" as root to regenerate your - configuration, then "service local_unbound reload" to load the - new configuration. - -20140709: - The GNU texinfo and GNU info pages are not built and installed - anymore, WITH_INFO knob has been added to allow to built and install - them again. - UPDATE: see 20150102 entry on texinfo's removal - -20140708: - The GNU readline library is now an INTERNALLIB - that is, it is - statically linked into consumers (GDB and variants) in the base - system, and the shared library is no longer installed. The - devel/readline port is available for third party software that - requires readline. - -20140702: - The Itanium architecture (ia64) has been removed from the list of - known architectures. This is the first step in the removal of the - architecture. - -20140701: - Commit r268115 has added NFSv4.1 server support, merged from - projects/nfsv4.1-server. Since this includes changes to the - internal interfaces between the NFS related modules, a full - build of the kernel and modules will be necessary. - __FreeBSD_version has been bumped. - -20140629: - The WITHOUT_VT_SUPPORT kernel config knob has been renamed - WITHOUT_VT. (The other _SUPPORT knobs have a consistent meaning - which differs from the behaviour controlled by this knob.) - -20140619: - Maximal length of the serial number in CTL was increased from 16 to - 64 chars, that breaks ABI. All CTL-related tools, such as ctladm - and ctld, need to be rebuilt to work with a new kernel. - -20140606: - The libatf-c and libatf-c++ major versions were downgraded to 0 and - 1 respectively to match the upstream numbers. They were out of - sync because, when they were originally added to FreeBSD, the - upstream versions were not respected. These libraries are private - and not yet built by default, so renumbering them should be a - non-issue. However, unclean source trees will yield broken test - programs once the operator executes "make delete-old-libs" after a - "make installworld". - - Additionally, the atf-sh binary was made private by moving it into - /usr/libexec/. Already-built shell test programs will keep the - path to the old binary so they will break after "make delete-old" - is run. - - If you are using WITH_TESTS=yes (not the default), wipe the object - tree and rebuild from scratch to prevent spurious test failures. - This is only needed once: the misnumbered libraries and misplaced - binaries have been added to OptionalObsoleteFiles.inc so they will - be removed during a clean upgrade. - -20140512: - Clang and llvm have been upgraded to 3.4.1 release. - -20140508: - We bogusly installed src.opts.mk in /usr/share/mk. This file should - be removed to avoid issues in the future (and has been added to - ObsoleteFiles.inc). - -20140505: - /etc/src.conf now affects only builds of the FreeBSD src tree. In the - past, it affected all builds that used the bsd.*.mk files. The old - behavior was a bug, but people may have relied upon it. To get this - behavior back, you can .include /etc/src.conf from /etc/make.conf - (which is still global and isn't changed). This also changes the - behavior of incremental builds inside the tree of individual - directories. Set MAKESYSPATH to ".../share/mk" to do that. - Although this has survived make universe and some upgrade scenarios, - other upgrade scenarios may have broken. At least one form of - temporary breakage was fixed with MAKESYSPATH settings for buildworld - as well... In cases where MAKESYSPATH isn't working with this - setting, you'll need to set it to the full path to your tree. - - One side effect of all this cleaning up is that bsd.compiler.mk - is no longer implicitly included by bsd.own.mk. If you wish to - use COMPILER_TYPE, you must now explicitly include bsd.compiler.mk - as well. - -20140430: - The lindev device has been removed since /dev/full has been made a - standard device. __FreeBSD_version has been bumped. - -20140424: - The knob WITHOUT_VI was added to the base system, which controls - building ex(1), vi(1), etc. Older releases of FreeBSD required ex(1) - in order to reorder files share/termcap and didn't build ex(1) as a - build tool, so building/installing with WITH_VI is highly advised for - build hosts for older releases. - - This issue has been fixed in stable/9 and stable/10 in r277022 and - r276991, respectively. - -20140418: - The YES_HESIOD knob has been removed. It has been obsolete for - a decade. Please move to using WITH_HESIOD instead or your builds - will silently lack HESIOD. - -20140405: - The uart(4) driver has been changed with respect to its handling - of the low-level console. Previously the uart(4) driver prevented - any process from changing the baudrate or the CLOCAL and HUPCL - control flags. By removing the restrictions, operators can make - changes to the serial console port without having to reboot. - However, when getty(8) is started on the serial device that is - associated with the low-level console, a misconfigured terminal - line in /etc/ttys will now have a real impact. - Before upgrading the kernel, make sure that /etc/ttys has the - serial console device configured as 3wire without baudrate to - preserve the previous behaviour. E.g: - ttyu0 "/usr/libexec/getty 3wire" vt100 on secure - -20140306: - Support for libwrap (TCP wrappers) in rpcbind was disabled by default - to improve performance. To re-enable it, if needed, run rpcbind - with command line option -W. - -20140226: - Switched back to the GPL dtc compiler due to updates in the upstream - dts files not being supported by the BSDL dtc compiler. You will need - to rebuild your kernel toolchain to pick up the new compiler. Core dumps - may result while building dtb files during a kernel build if you fail - to do so. Set WITHOUT_GPL_DTC if you require the BSDL compiler. - -20140216: - Clang and llvm have been upgraded to 3.4 release. - -20140216: - The nve(4) driver has been removed. Please use the nfe(4) driver - for NVIDIA nForce MCP Ethernet adapters instead. - -20140212: - An ABI incompatibility crept into the libc++ 3.4 import in r261283. - This could cause certain C++ applications using shared libraries built - against the previous version of libc++ to crash. The incompatibility - has now been fixed, but any C++ applications or shared libraries built - between r261283 and r261801 should be recompiled. - -20140204: - OpenSSH will now ignore errors caused by kernel lacking of Capsicum - capability mode support. Please note that enabling the feature in - kernel is still highly recommended. - -20140131: - OpenSSH is now built with sandbox support, and will use sandbox as - the default privilege separation method. This requires Capsicum - capability mode support in kernel. - -20140128: - The libelf and libdwarf libraries have been updated to newer - versions from upstream. Shared library version numbers for - these two libraries were bumped. Any ports or binaries - requiring these two libraries should be recompiled. - __FreeBSD_version is bumped to 1100006. - -20140110: - If a Makefile in a tests/ directory was auto-generating a Kyuafile - instead of providing an explicit one, this would prevent such - Makefile from providing its own Kyuafile in the future during - NO_CLEAN builds. This has been fixed in the Makefiles but manual - intervention is needed to clean an objdir if you use NO_CLEAN: - # find /usr/obj -name Kyuafile | xargs rm -f - -20131213: - The behavior of gss_pseudo_random() for the krb5 mechanism - has changed, for applications requesting a longer random string - than produced by the underlying enctype's pseudo-random() function. - In particular, the random string produced from a session key of - enctype aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96 or aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96 will - be different at the 17th octet and later, after this change. - The counter used in the PRF+ construction is now encoded as a - big-endian integer in accordance with RFC 4402. - __FreeBSD_version is bumped to 1100004. - -20131108: - The WITHOUT_ATF build knob has been removed and its functionality - has been subsumed into the more generic WITHOUT_TESTS. If you were - using the former to disable the build of the ATF libraries, you - should change your settings to use the latter. - -20131025: - The default version of mtree is nmtree which is obtained from - NetBSD. The output is generally the same, but may vary - slightly. If you found you need identical output adding - "-F freebsd9" to the command line should do the trick. For the - time being, the old mtree is available as fmtree. - -20131014: - libbsdyml has been renamed to libyaml and moved to /usr/lib/private. - This will break ports-mgmt/pkg. Rebuild the port, or upgrade to pkg - 1.1.4_8 and verify bsdyml not linked in, before running "make - delete-old-libs": - # make -C /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg build deinstall install clean - or - # pkg install pkg; ldd /usr/local/sbin/pkg | grep bsdyml - -20131010: - The stable/10 branch has been created in subversion from head - revision r256279. +After branch N is created, entriels older than the N-2 branch point are removed +from this file. After stable/14 is branched and current becomes FreeBSD 15, +entries older than stable/12 branch point will be removed from current's +UPDATING file. COMMON ITEMS:
