Introduce igb(4) and split Intel Gigabit Ethernet adapters between |
17 |
+ |
igb(4) and em(4). Newer devices use igb(4). The code has moved |
18 |
+ |
to sys/dev/e1000 for both devices in the kernel. igb(4) has |
19 |
+ |
been placed in GENERIC on i386 and amd64. |
20 |
+ |
|
21 |
+ |
Update bfe(4) to support newer devices and WOL. |

20101130: |
62 |
+ |
A double free exists in the SSL client ECDH handling code, when |
63 |
+ |
processing specially crafted public keys with invalid prime |
64 |
+ |
numbers. [CVE-2010-2939] |
65 |
+ |
|
66 |
+ |
20101120: |
67 |
+ |
Several portions of the kernel and userland code related to UFS file |
68 |
+ |
systems (and UFS2) cannot properly handle inode counts above 2^31 due |
69 |
+ |
to use of int types. Based on a patch from FreeBSD, I've modified |
70 |
+ |
our UFS2 implementation to handle unsigned values for inode counts |
71 |
+ |
which should allow for file systems greater than 16TB. |
72 |
+ |
|
73 |
+ |
newfs and growfs was also modified. |
74 |
+ |
|
75 |
+ |
20101110: |
76 |
+ |
Fix a security issue with pseudofs which could result in running code in kernel |
77 |
+ |
context or a kernel panic depending on system configuration. This affects file |
78 |
+ |
systems such as procfs for instance. |
79 |
+ |
|
80 |
+ |
20101021: |
81 |
+ |
sysrc is a utility to print and modify name/value pairs in /etc/rc.conf easily. |
82 |
+ |
This is similar to functions present in many linux distros. The utility was |
83 |
+ |
written by Devin Teske for FreeBSD. |
84 |
+ |
|
85 |
+ |
20100920: |
86 |

87 |
+ |
|
88 |
+ |
20100905: |
89 |
+ |
MidnightBSD RELENG_0_3 branch created. Aggressive development continues here |
90 |
+ |
for 0.4. |
91 |
+ |
|
92 |
+ |
20100902: |
93 |
+ |
Fix a security issue with libutil that allows users to bypass cpu limits in |
94 |
+ |
login.conf in some cases. This combined with OpenSSH for example can allow |
95 |
+ |
the user to get more resources than they're allowed. |
96 |
+ |
|
97 |
+ |
20100822: |
98 |
+ |
Import Apple's mDNSResponder (mdnsd). |
99 |
+ |
|
100 |
+ |
20100814: |
101 |
+ |
libdispatch added to MidnightBSD. This provides functionality found in |
102 |
+ |
Mac OS X's GCD. We do not have blocks support yet. As this code is |
103 |
+ |
licensed under Apache 2, we create a new MK_APACHE option so that |
104 |
+ |
it's not required for all users to run code under a license they |
105 |
+ |
may not like. |
106 |
+ |
|
107 |
+ |
20100713: |

20100206: |
152 |
+ |
WITHOUT_LIB32 is no longer needed on AMD64. GCC was fixed to |
153 |
+ |
properly pass arguments to ld. |
154 |
+ |
|
155 |
+ |
re(4) and rl(4) have been updated to support several new |
156 |
+ |
realtek chipsets. Performance has been improved on re(4). |
157 |
+ |
|
158 |
+ |
20100204: |
159 |

Import Sendmail 8.14.4. Fix for SSL vulnerability. |
169 |
+ |
|
170 |
+ |
posix_spawn(3) added to MidnightBSD libc. Users may need to build and |
171 |
+ |
install libc before doing a full buildworld when upating from 0.2 or |
172 |
+ |
older current systems. |
173 |
+ |
|
174 |

Bind security update. Fix a bug with DNSSEC that causes negative |
178 |
+ |
cache entries and thus a possible DNS cache poisoning attack. |
179 |
+ |
|

+ |
Fix a bug in ZFS that can reset permissions on system crashes. |
181 |
+ |
|
182 |
+ |
20091228: |
183 |
+ |
amdtemp(4) was added. It allows one to monitor to the temperature |
184 |
+ |
of an AMD CPU such as a Phenom. |
185 |
+ |
|
186 |
+ |
20091205: |
187 |
+ |
OpenSSL security fix |
188 |
+ |
|
189 |

cpdup updated from DragonFly to 1.15 |
204 |
+ |
|
205 |
+ |
tzdata2009s updated with latest timezone data for November 2009. |
206 |
+ |
|
207 |
+ |
20091010: |
208 |
+ |
amd64 users should use WITHOUT_LIB32=yes in /etc/make.conf for now |
209 |
+ |
to test current. |
210 |
+ |
|
211 |
+ |
Revert unicode filename fixes from ntfs code. This was causing chaos |
212 |
+ |
on amd64 systems. |
213 |
+ |
|
214 |
+ |
20091006: |
215 |
+ |
Update timezone data with tzdata2009n with the Pakistan and |
216 |
+ |
Argentina changes. |
217 |
+ |
|
218 |
+ |
Sync several userland utilities with versions from FreeBSD 7.0 in |
219 |
+ |
sbin and usr.sbin. |
220 |
+ |
|
221 |
+ |
20090919: |
222 |
+ |
Update timezone data with tzdate2009m from September 2009. |
223 |
+ |
|
224 |
+ |
20090729: |
225 |
+ |
Patch for Bind 9 security vulnerability. a dynmaic update packet |
226 |
+ |
can trigger an assertion and cause named to exit |
227 |
+ |
|
228 |
+ |
20090606: |
229 |
+ |
Remove PCC from the base system. This compiler will not work |
230 |
+ |
as a system compiler for us as we've got some userland investment |
231 |
+ |
in C++ code and may have Objective-C in the future. We're stuck |
232 |
+ |
with a solution that supports these three languages at a minimum. |
233 |
+ |
|
234 |
+ |
I had wanted to keep it as an optional compiler because it is |
235 |
+ |
fast, however too many users want to try to use it for the base |
236 |
+ |
system which makes no sense. |
237 |
+ |
|
238 |
+ |
A hack was added for Cypress based usb hard drive enclosures to |
239 |
+ |
the kernel. This should cut down on commands it claims to support |
240 |
+ |
but does not (at the cam layer). Found while testing ZFS on |
241 |
+ |
an external device. |
242 |
+ |
|
243 |
+ |
20090520: |
244 |
+ |
The powerd daemon no longer starts automatically to improve |
245 |
+ |
compatibility with many systems. However, there is a new |
246 |
+ |
installer option in the startup section to enable it. This |
247 |
+ |
makes it easier to enable for users that have working systems. I thought it was only a problem on older hardware, but it freaks |
248 |
+ |
out my new Phenom too. |
249 |
+ |
|
250 |
+ |
20090502: |
251 |

OpenSSL security update |
260 |
+ |
|
261 |
+ |
The function ASN1_STRING_print_ex does not properly validate the lengths |
262 |
+ |
of BMPString or UniversalString objects before attempting to print them. |
263 |
+ |
|
264 |
+ |
20090415: |
265 |
+ |
Created a Symbol.map for libc/ohash symbols |
266 |
+ |
|
267 |
+ |
Updated several usr/bin usr/sbin utilities. |
268 |
+ |
|
269 |
+ |
Corrected a bug with Makefile.inc1 causing the bootstrap |
270 |
+ |
tools to fail. |
271 |
+ |
|
272 |
+ |
20090405: |
273 |
+ |
xorg 7.4 wants to configure its input devices via hald which does not |
274 |
+ |
yet work with USB. If the keyboard/mouse does not work in xorg then |
275 |
+ |
add |
276 |
+ |
Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off" |
277 |
+ |
to your ServerLayout section. This will cause X to use the configured |
278 |
+ |
kbd and mouse sections from your xorg.conf |
279 |

20090403: |
281 |

mksh was disconnected a few day ago do to bugs with |
282 |
+ |
buildworld and mports. Now, connect it back |
283 |
+ |
for use as /bin/sh with a conditional called |
284 |
+ |
MK_ASH. By default, ash is the standard /bin/sh |
285 |
+ |
but we may change this later. This will allow further |
286 |
+ |
testing by users and developers of mksh without |
287 |
+ |
causing an unpleasant default experience. In the |
288 |
+ |
long run, we need to fix mksh compatibility. |
289 |
+ |
|
290 |
+ |
20090328: |
291 |
+ |
Bring in mksh R37 from CVS. The dot.mkshrc files for root |
292 |
+ |
and skel were changed. mksh(1) now replaces ash aka sh(1) |
293 |
+ |
as the default /bin/sh. Please report bugs with |
294 |
+ |
ports, etc. The ash code will remain in the repo for awhile |
295 |
+ |
as I decide if we'll add something like MK_SHELL_ASH as |
296 |
+ |
an optional build parameter. |
297 |
+ |
|
298 |
+ |
ahd was disconnected from the lint environment until |
299 |
+ |
the compiler bug is sorted (by updating gcc?) |
300 |

|
301 |
+ |
Remove freebsd-tips from fortune files and change the |
302 |
+ |
default for login and profile. |
303 |
+ |
|
304 |
+ |
20090327: |
305 |
+ |
Update libarchive to 2.5.5, tar, and add bsdcpio. |
306 |
+ |
|
307 |
+ |
Also previously, ctriv has been connecting Perl 5.10 |
308 |
+ |
to the build (part of os). This will have an impact |
309 |
+ |
on mports. |
310 |
+ |
|
311 |
+ |
20090325: |
312 |

20090110: |
324 |

For applications using OpenSSL for SSL connections, an invalid SSL |
325 |
+ |
certificate may be interpreted as valid. This could for example be |
326 |
+ |
used by an attacker to perform a man-in-the-middle attack. |
327 |
+ |
|
328 |
+ |
Other applications which use the OpenSSL EVP API may similarly be |
329 |
+ |
affected. |

20081206: |
346 |
+ |
Due to the massive change in the underlying system under way, |
347 |
+ |
we're naming the next release 1.0. The sys/sys/param.h was |
348 |
+ |
changed accordingly. ipfilter and ncurses were corrected |
349 |
+ |
using __MidnightBSD__ tests in the code. |
350 |
+ |
|
351 |
+ |
The GENERIC kernel config was caught up on i386 today. Consider |
352 |
+ |
i386 still broken, but amd64 is running again. |
353 |
+ |
|
354 |
+ |
mdoc.local was updated with the new MidnightBSD version info. |
355 |
+ |
|
356 |
+ |
batt(1) was rewritten in C. It now supports several flags and |
357 |
+ |
runs about 8 times faster on my laptop. The default output |
358 |
+ |
shows the number of minutes of battery life remaining and the |
359 |
+ |
percentage. You can use -u to display the number of batteries or |
360 |
+ |
-c to get script friendly output. Consult the man page for more. |
361 |
+ |
|
362 |
+ |
20081204: |
363 |
+ |
Work has completed on importing ZFS, jemalloc, several |
364 |
+ |
new devices, SCTP, updated pf, a new tempfs, linuxolator 2.6 kernel |
365 |
+ |
support, improved locking for file desc., audit (openbsm), |
366 |
+ |
openssl .98e, nfe, imporved intel high def audio, midi, updated |
367 |
+ |
intel gigabit (em), support for several wifi cards (intel), ... |
368 |
+ |
|
369 |
+ |
Renamed 0.3-CURRENT officially. Switched to using MidnightBSD version |
370 |
+ |
data from param.h instead of the FreeBSD version. This means |
371 |
