Now most modules get their build-time options from the kernel |
20 |
< |
configuration file. A few modules still have fixed options |
21 |
< |
due to their non-conformant implementation, but they will be |
22 |
< |
corrected eventually. You may need to review the options of |
23 |
< |
the modules in use, explicitly specify the non-default options |
24 |
< |
in the kernel configuration file, and rebuild the kernel and |
25 |
< |
modules afterwards. |

/etc/rc.d/ppp-user has been renamed to /etc/rc.d/ppp. |
29 |

Scripts in the local_startup directories (as defined in |
29 |
< |
/etc/defaults/rc.conf) that have the new rc.d semantics will |
49 |
< |
now be run as part of the base system rcorder. If there are |
50 |

errors or problems with one of these local scripts, it could |
51 |

cause boot problems. If you encounter such problems, boot in |
52 |

The ai_addrlen of a struct addrinfo was changed to a socklen_t |
73 |

to conform to POSIX-2001. This change broke an ABI |
74 |

The pccard_ifconfig rc.conf variable has been removed and a new |
50 |

variable, ifconfig_DEFAULT has been introduced. Unlike |
84 |
< |
pccard_ifconfig, ifconfig_DEFAULT applies to ALL interfaces that |

Some previous versions of PAM have permitted the use of |
90 |
< |
non-absolute paths in /etc/pam.conf or /etc/pam.d/* when referring |
91 |
< |
to third party PAM modules in /usr/local/lib. A change has been |
92 |
< |
made to require the use of absolute paths in order to avoid |
93 |
< |
ambiguity and dependence on library path configuration, which may |
94 |
< |
affect existing configurations. |

Sendfile write only permissions fix. |

20050610: |
97 |

Major changes to network interface API. All drivers must be |
98 |
< |
recompiled. Drivers not in the base system will need to be |
99 |
< |
updated to the new APIs. |
55 |

Removed some HPFS and PC98 code. |
56 |
|
|
57 |

20050609: |
102 |

Changes were made to kinfo_proc in sys/user.h. Please recompile |
103 |
< |
userland, or commands like `fstat', `pkill', `ps', `top' and `w' |
104 |
< |
will not behave correctly. |
57 |

iso639 file sycned with DragonFly. |
58 |
|
|
59 |

The API and ABI for hwpmc(4) have changed with the addition |
60 |
< |
of sampling support. Please recompile lib/libpmc(3) and |
61 |
< |
usr.sbin/{pmcstat,pmccontrol}. |
59 |

63 |

20050606: |
111 |
< |
The OpenBSD dhclient was imported in place of the ISC dhclient |
112 |
< |
and the network interface configuration scripts were updated |
113 |
< |
accordingly. If you use DHCP to configure your interfaces, you |
114 |
< |
must now run devd. Also, DNS updating was lost so you will need |
115 |
< |
to find a workaround if you use this feature. |
63 |

Fix an issue with fork() in libpthread. |
64 |

20050603: |
71 |
< |
The n_net of a struct netent was changed to an uint32_t, and |
123 |
< |
1st argument of getnetbyaddr() was changed to an uint32_t, to |
124 |
< |
conform to POSIX-2001. These changes broke an ABI |
125 |
< |
compatibility on 64 bit architecture. With these changes, |
126 |
< |
shlib major of libpcap was bumped. You have to recompile |
127 |
< |
userland programs that use getnetbyaddr(3), getnetbyname(3), |
128 |
< |
getnetent(3) and/or libpcap on 64 bit architecture. |

The NO_MIXED_MODE kernel option has been removed from the i386 |
143 |

amd64 platforms as its use has been superceded by the new local |
144 |

The ifi_epoch member of struct if_data has been changed to |
155 |

contain the uptime at which the interface was created or the |
156 |
< |
statistics zeroed rather then the wall clock time because |
157 |
< |
wallclock time may go backwards. This should have no impact |
158 |

none at this point.) |

The layout of struct image_params has changed. You have to |

The p4tcc driver has been merged into cpufreq(4). This makes |
172 |

"options CPU_ENABLE_TCC" obsolete. Please load cpufreq.ko or |
173 |

The responsibility of recomputing the file system summary of |
99 |
< |
a SoftUpdates-enabled dirty volume has been transferred to the |
178 |
< |
background fsck. A rebuild of fsck(8) utility is recommended |

Support for abbreviated forms of a number of ipfw options is |

correct full form when a match occurs. Some abbreviations may |

General Notes |
176 |
< |
------------- |
177 |
< |
Avoid using make -j when upgrading. From time to time in the |
178 |
< |
past there have been problems using -j with buildworld and/or |
179 |
< |
installworld. This is especially true when upgrading between |
274 |
< |
"distant" versions (eg one that cross a major release boundary |
275 |
< |
or several minor releases, or when several months have passed |
276 |
< |
on the -current branch). |
175 |
> |
It is adviced that any mports which were installed and/or built |
176 |
> |
prior to the propolice update also be updated. If any errors |
177 |
> |
or issue are encounted, please contact security@midnightbsd.org |
178 |
> |
and we will be sure to investigate and come up with an expeditious |
179 |
> |
fix. |
180 |
|
|
181 |
< |
Sometimes, obscure build problems are the result of environment |
182 |
< |
poisoning. This can happen because the make utility reads its |
280 |
< |
environment when searching for values for global variables. |
281 |
< |
To run your build attempts in an "environmental clean room", |
282 |
< |
prefix all make commands with 'env -i '. See the env(1) manual |
283 |
< |
page for more details. |
181 |
> |
20070314: |
182 |
> |
Remove send-pr from src. |
183 |
|
|
184 |
< |
Due to several updates to the build infrastructure, source |
286 |
< |
upgrades from versions prior to 5.3 no longer supported. |
184 |
> |
Switch to NetBSD's gzip. |
185 |
|
|
186 |
< |
When upgrading from one major version to another it is generally |
289 |
< |
best to upgrade to the latest code in the currently installed branch |
290 |
< |
first, then do an upgrade to the new branch. This is the best-tested |
291 |
< |
upgrade path, and has the highest probability of being successful. |
292 |
< |
Please try this approach before reporting problems with a major |
293 |
< |
version upgrade. |
186 |
> |
Bump MBSD minor revision. |

20070313: |
189 |
+ |
Imported OpenSSH 4.6p1. |
190 |
+ |
|
191 |
+ |
Imported FreeBSD's libarchive and updated tar to work with it. |
192 |
+ |
|
193 |
+ |
Disabled debug statements cluttering up /var/log/messages for |
194 |
+ |
the tcp autobuf patch applied previously. |
195 |
+ |
|
196 |
+ |
20070312: |
197 |
+ |
Synced several audio changes from FreeBSD 6.1. Removed the |
198 |
+ |
BSD Daemon files from src/share. |
199 |
+ |
|
200 |
+ |
20070308: |
201 |
+ |
Added mfi which supports LSI Logic MegaRAID SAS devices including |
202 |
+ |
the Dell perc5i. |
203 |
+ |
|
204 |
+ |
20070206: |
205 |
+ |
Imported OpenBSD's sudo into source. Please install |
206 |
+ |
/usr/src/usr.bin/sudo/lib first before building. |
207 |
+ |
|
208 |
+ |
Those who install from a snapshot after this date |
209 |
+ |
will not be effected. |
210 |
+ |
|
211 |
+ |
20070119: |
212 |
+ |
Added audit group. Be sure to add audit to your /etc/group file |
213 |
+ |
before installing world. |
214 |
+ |
|
215 |
+ |
hostapd was updated to 0.4.8. |
216 |
+ |
|
217 |
+ |
An accidental commit in usr.sbin/bluetooth/hccontrol was fixed to |
218 |
+ |
unbreak world. |
219 |
+ |
|
220 |
+ |
wpa_supplicant was updated. |
221 |
+ |
|
222 |
+ |
For stability and compatibility reasons, it was decided that MidnightBSD |
223 |
+ |
sync with FreeBSD 6.1 Release. Nearly every change between the original |
224 |
+ |
fork date of February 24, 2006 and the release of FreeBSD 6.1 in May |
225 |
+ |
2006 will be merged. Beyond this, MidnightBSD will be a "real" fork and |
226 |
+ |
will not sync every little change with FreeBSD. |
227 |
+ |
|
228 |
+ |
20061231: |
229 |
+ |
Updated COPYRIGHT for 2007. |
230 |
+ |
|
231 |
+ |
Updated and bumped libutil after importing NetBSD efun(3) functions. |
232 |
+ |
|
233 |
+ |
Added MidnightBSD_version and bumped the FreeBSD version as we've |
234 |
+ |
synced all commits between the fork and that version. It is now safe |
235 |
+ |
to assume MidnightBSD is compatible with FreeBSD RELENG_6 from |
236 |
+ |
Feb 26, 2006. |
237 |
+ |
|
238 |
+ |
Added spell(1) and deroff(1) from NetBSD. Also added additional |
239 |
+ |
dict files to work with it. /usr/share/dict/american, |
240 |
+ |
/usr/share/dict/british and /usr/share/dict/special/math |
241 |
+ |
|
242 |
+ |
Numerous man page and bug fixes. |

+ |
|
244 |
+ |
20061226: |
245 |
+ |

MidnightBSD CVSup server. |
247 |
+ |
|
248 |
+ |
Fix a bug in burncd where it would continue forever while |
249 |
+ |
erasing CDRW media. |
250 |
+ |
|
251 |
+ |
Add csup to /usr/bin. csup is a CVSup replacement written |
252 |
+ |
in C. |
253 |
+ |
|
254 |
+ |
Fixed a bug with bsnmpd build from Oct 30. |
255 |
+ |
|
256 |
+ |

257 |
+ |
geom. Imported changes from FreeBSD RELENG_6. |
258 |
+ |
|
259 |
+ |
20061225: |
260 |
+ |
Fixed a typo in src/lib/libc/sparc64/fpu/fpu_implode.c |
261 |
+ |
that caused long double to long and long long |
262 |
+ |
conversion of negative numbers to always result in -1. |
263 |
+ |
|
264 |
+ |
20061221: |
265 |
+ |
Fixed acpi_battery.c to not report an ERROR if no |
266 |
+ |
batteries are present. |
267 |
+ |
|
268 |
+ |
Performed some minor updates on the RL and RE NIC drivers. |
269 |

318 |
+ |
|
319 |
+ |
20060909: |
320 |
+ |
OpenNTPD was added to MidnightBSD. Run make delete-old to remove |
321 |
+ |
the old ntpd daemon. |
322 |
+ |
|
323 |
+ |
cat has a new option -D which allows you to timestamp output |
324 |
+ |
on a per line basis. |
325 |
+ |
|
326 |
+ |
The kernel has a keyboard mux which allows you to have multiple |
327 |
+ |
keyboard connected simultaneously. USB keyboard support was also |
328 |
+ |
improved with this patch. |
329 |
+ |
|
330 |
+ |

If you are updating from a prior version of MidnightBSD (even one just |
346 |
|
a few days old), you should follow this procedure. With a |
347 |
|
/usr/obj tree with a fresh buildworld, |
348 |

make -DALWAYS_CHECK_MAKE buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE |
360 |

This assumes you are already running a 6.X system. Replace |
362 |
|
${arch} with the architecture of your machine (e.g. "i386", |
363 |

"alpha", "amd64", "ia64", "pc98", "sparc64", etc). |
363 |

"amd64", "ia64", "pc98", "sparc64", etc). |
364 |
|
|
365 |
|
cd src/sys/${arch}/conf |
366 |
|
config KERNEL_NAME_HERE |
480 |
|
MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX must be defined in an environment variable, and |
481 |
|
not on the command line, or in /etc/make.conf. buildworld will |
