11 <        An IPv6 support of ipfw was enabled by default.  If you don't
13 <        want to filter an IPv6 by ipfw, please add following line into
14 <        your ipfw rule:

14  
15 < 20060210:
16 <        Now most modules get their build-time options from the kernel
17 <        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.

18  
19 < 20060122:
20 <        /etc/rc.d/ppp-user has been renamed to /etc/rc.d/ppp.
29 <        Its /etc/rc.conf.d configuration file has been `ppp' from
30 <        the beginning, and hence there is no need to touch it.
19 > 20131004:
20 >        rarpd supports vlan(4) and has a pid flag. (from FreeBSD)
21  
22 < 20060113:
23 <        si(4)'s device files now contain the unit number.
24 <        Uses of {cua,tty}A[0-9a-f] should be replaced by {cua,tty}A0[0-9a-f].
22 > 20130917:
23 >        Support for 65,536 routing tables was added.  A new fib specific
24 >        field has been added to mbuf.  This is an increase from 16.

31 >        The nullfs(5) implementation of the VOP_LINK(9) VFS operation does not
32 >        check whether the source and target of the link are both in the same
33 >        nullfs instance.  It is therefore possible to create a hardlink from a

45 >        SIOCSIFBRDADDR, SIOCSIFDSTADDR and SIOCSIFNETMASK requests have been
46 >        handled at the network layer, and therefore do not perform input
47 >        validation or verify the caller's credentials.  Typical link-layer
48 >        actions for these requests may include marking the interface as "up"

839 <        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.

843  
844 < 20050603:
845 <        The n_net of a struct netent was changed to an uint32_t, and
846 <        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,

856 < 20050415:
142 <        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

857  
858 < 20050227:
148 <        The on-disk format of LC_CTYPE files was changed to be machine
149 <        independent.  Please make sure NOT to use NO_CLEAN buildworld

928  
929 <        General Notes
930 <        -------------
271 <        Avoid using make -j when upgrading.  From time to time in the
272 <        past there have been problems using -j with buildworld and/or
273 <        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).
929 > 20070806:
930 >        Finished removing umapfs and autofs from the tree.
931  
932 <        Sometimes, obscure build problems are the result of environment
933 <        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.
932 > 20070804:
933 >        BIND and Tcpdump have been patched for recent vulnerabilities.
934  
935 <        Due to several updates to the build infrastructure, source
286 <        upgrades from versions prior to 5.3 no longer supported.
935 >        We switched to BSD cpio (pax).
936  
937 <        When upgrading from one major version to another it is generally
938 <        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.
937 > 20070719:
938 >        Imported cpdup from DragonFly as /bin/cpdup
939  
940 + 20070716:
941 +        Update GNU cpio to 2.8.
942 +
943 + 20070410:
944 +        cvs was updated to 1.12.13.  cvsbug was removed.
945 +        cvs now behaves similarly to DragonFly's cvs with
946 +        most of their local changes.  
947 +
948 + 20070409:
949 +        RELENG_0_1 was created. More aggresive changes will
950 +        continue here.
951 +
952 + 20070406:
953 +        Back out propolice.  propolice caused several problems
954 +        with our threading libraries libthr and libpthread.  
955 +        curthread was often NULL after the patch and many
956 +        multithreaded applications would crash.  We plan to
957 +        work on either bringing in gcc 4.1 or developing a new
958 +        patch which also corrects our threading issues later.
959 +
960 +        It is more important to have a stable system for our
961 +        mport work and other projects at this time.
962 +
963 +        This is not a clean removal.  It is recommended that you
964 +        have a recently SNAP CD handy.  You can either reinstall
965 +        or perform a make buildworld and make buildkernel and
966 +        make installkernel.  Reboot on the cd and copy the contents
967 +        of /bin, /sbin, /lib, /libexec, and /usr/bin, /usr/sbin,
968 +        /usr/lib, and /usr/libexec to the respective directories on
969 +        your disk.  Then you should be able to boot into single user
970 +        mode and run make installworld.  You will need to run
971 +        chflags noschg on some of the files if you can't overwrite
972 +        them.
973 +
974 +        You will get __guard missing errors since we had to remove
975 +        this from libc.
976 +
977 +        You will need to rebuild any ports built while propolice was
978 +        installed.
979 +
980 + 20070401:
981 +        Importing propolice into MidnightBSD. Propolice is going to
982 +        provide us with much greater security and stability in the
983 +        long run. If upgrading from a pre-propolice system, please
984 +        follow the these instructions:
985 +
986 +        cd /usr/src/lib/libc && make obj && make && make install
987 +        cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc && make obj && make && make install
988 +        cd /usr/src/lib/libpthread && make obj && make && make install
989 +        cd /usr/src/lib/libthr && make obj && make && make install
990 +        buildworld and kernel
991 +
992 +        It is adviced that any mports which were installed and/or built
993 +        prior to the propolice update also be updated. If any errors
994 +        or issue are encounted, please contact security@midnightbsd.org
995 +        and we will be sure to investigate and come up with an expeditious
996 +        fix.
997 +
998 + 20070314:
999 +        Remove send-pr from src.
1000 +
1001 +        Switch to NetBSD's gzip.
1002 +
1003 +        Bump MBSD minor revision.
1004 +
1005 + 20070313:
1006 +        Imported OpenSSH 4.6p1.
1007 +
1008 +        Imported FreeBSD's libarchive and updated tar to work with it.
1009 +
1010 +        Disabled debug statements cluttering up /var/log/messages for
1011 +        the tcp autobuf patch applied previously.
1012 +
1013 + 20070312:
1014 +        Synced several audio changes from FreeBSD 6.1. Removed the
1015 +        BSD Daemon files from src/share.  
1016 +
1017 + 20070308:
1018 +        Added mfi which supports LSI Logic MegaRAID SAS devices including
1019 +        the Dell perc5i.
1020 +
1021 + 20070206:
1022 +        Imported OpenBSD's sudo into source. Please install
1023 +        /usr/src/usr.bin/sudo/lib first before building.
1024 +
1025 +        Those who install from a snapshot after this date
1026 +        will not be effected.
1027 +
1028 + 20070119:
1029 +        Added audit group.  Be sure to add audit to your /etc/group file
1030 +        before installing world.
1031 +
1032 +        hostapd was updated to 0.4.8.
1033 +
1034 +        An accidental commit in usr.sbin/bluetooth/hccontrol was fixed to
1035 +        unbreak world.
1036 +
1037 +        wpa_supplicant was updated.
1038 +
1039 +        For stability and compatibility reasons, it was decided that MidnightBSD
1040 +        sync with FreeBSD 6.1 Release.  Nearly every change between the original
1041 +        fork date of February 24, 2006 and the release of FreeBSD 6.1 in May
1042 +        2006 will be merged.  Beyond this, MidnightBSD will be a "real" fork and
1043 +        will not sync every little change with FreeBSD.
1044 +
1045 + 20061231:
1046 +        Updated COPYRIGHT for 2007.
1047 +
1048 +        Updated and bumped libutil after importing NetBSD efun(3) functions.
1049 +
1050 +        Added MidnightBSD_version and bumped the FreeBSD version as we've
1051 +        synced all commits between the fork and that version.  It is now safe
1052 +        to assume MidnightBSD is compatible with FreeBSD RELENG_6 from
1053 +        Feb 26, 2006.
1054 +
1055 +        Added spell(1) and deroff(1) from NetBSD.  Also added additional
1056 +        dict files to work with it. /usr/share/dict/american,
1057 +        /usr/share/dict/british and /usr/share/dict/special/math
1058 +
1059 +        Numerous man page and bug fixes.
1060 +
1061 + 20061226:
1062 +        Setup /usr/share/examples/cvsup SUPfiles for the new
1063 +        MidnightBSD CVSup server.
1064 +
1065 +        Fix a bug in burncd where it would continue forever while
1066 +        erasing CDRW media.
1067 +
1068 +        Add csup to /usr/bin.  csup is a CVSup replacement written
1069 +        in C.
1070 +
1071 +        Fixed a bug with bsnmpd build from Oct 30.  
1072 +
1073 +        Corrected some race conditions and fixed a few bugs in
1074 +        geom.  Imported changes from FreeBSD RELENG_6.
1075 +
1076 + 20061225:
1077 +        Fixed a typo in src/lib/libc/sparc64/fpu/fpu_implode.c
1078 +        that caused long double to long and long long
1079 +        conversion of negative numbers to always result in -1.
1080 +
1081 + 20061221:
1082 +        Fixed acpi_battery.c to not report an ERROR if no
1083 +        batteries are present.
1084 +
1085 +        Performed some minor updates on the RL and RE NIC drivers.
1086 +        RL should no longer panic when trying to print errors.
1087 +
1088 +        Corrected a bug with TTY.
1089 +
1090 + 20061218:
1091 +        Corrected a bug with libpthread where newly created suspended
1092 +        threads don't get scheduled.
1093 +
1094 + 20061206:
1095 +        Fixed a typo with the firewire security patch.
1096 +
1097 + 20061129:
1098 +        Minor cleanups to utilities in bin.
1099 +
