OpenNTPD 4.4 import |
5 |
|
|
6 |
+ |
Update OpenSSH to 5.3p1 |
7 |
+ |
|
8 |
+ |
mksh R39 |
9 |
+ |
|
10 |
+ |
20091024: |
11 |
+ |
cpdup updated from DragonFly to 1.15 |
12 |
+ |
|
13 |
+ |
tzdata2009s updated with latest timezone data for November 2009. |
14 |
+ |
|
15 |
+ |
20091010: |
16 |
+ |
amd64 users should use WITHOUT_LIB32=yes in /etc/make.conf for now |
17 |
+ |
to test current. |
18 |
+ |
|
19 |
+ |
Revert unicode filename fixes from ntfs code. This was causing chaos |
20 |
+ |
on amd64 systems. |
21 |
+ |
|
22 |
+ |
20091006: |
23 |
+ |
Update timezone data with tzdata2009n with the Pakistan and |
24 |
+ |
Argentina changes. |
25 |
+ |
|
26 |
+ |
Sync several userland utilities with versions from FreeBSD 7.0 in |
27 |
+ |
sbin and usr.sbin. |
28 |
+ |
|
29 |
+ |
20090919: |
30 |
+ |
Update timezone data with tzdate2009m from September 2009. |
31 |
+ |
|
32 |
+ |
20090729: |
33 |
+ |
Patch for Bind 9 security vulnerability. a dynmaic update packet |
34 |
+ |
can trigger an assertion and cause named to exit |
35 |
+ |
|
36 |
+ |
20090606: |
37 |
+ |
Remove PCC from the base system. This compiler will not work |
38 |
+ |
as a system compiler for us as we've got some userland investment |
39 |
+ |
in C++ code and may have Objective-C in the future. We're stuck |
40 |
+ |
with a solution that supports these three languages at a minimum. |
41 |
+ |
|
42 |
+ |
I had wanted to keep it as an optional compiler because it is |
43 |
+ |
fast, however too many users want to try to use it for the base |
44 |
+ |
system which makes no sense. |
45 |
+ |
|
46 |
+ |
A hack was added for Cypress based usb hard drive enclosures to |
47 |
+ |
the kernel. This should cut down on commands it claims to support |
48 |
+ |
but does not (at the cam layer). Found while testing ZFS on |
49 |
+ |
an external device. |
50 |
+ |
|
51 |
+ |
20090520: |
52 |
+ |
The powerd daemon no longer starts automatically to improve |
53 |
+ |
compatibility with many systems. However, there is a new |
54 |
+ |
installer option in the startup section to enable it. This |
55 |
+ |
makes it easier to enable for users that have working systems. I thought it was only a problem on older hardware, but it freaks |
56 |
+ |
out my new Phenom too. |
57 |
+ |
|
58 |
+ |
20090502: |
59 |
+ |
OpenSSH 5.2p1 import |
60 |
+ |
|
61 |
+ |
ale(4) connected to the build. (kernel module only) |
62 |
+ |
|
63 |
+ |
20090501: |
64 |
+ |
Imported makefs utility from NetBSD/FreeBSD |
65 |
+ |
|
66 |
+ |
20090422: |
67 |
+ |
OpenSSL security update |
68 |
+ |
|
69 |
+ |
The function ASN1_STRING_print_ex does not properly validate the lengths |
70 |
+ |
of BMPString or UniversalString objects before attempting to print them. |
71 |
+ |
|
72 |
+ |
20090415: |
73 |
+ |
Created a Symbol.map for libc/ohash symbols |
74 |
+ |
|
75 |
+ |
Updated several usr/bin usr/sbin utilities. |
76 |
+ |
|
77 |
+ |
Corrected a bug with Makefile.inc1 causing the bootstrap |
78 |
+ |
tools to fail. |
79 |
+ |
|
80 |
+ |
20090405: |
81 |
+ |
xorg 7.4 wants to configure its input devices via hald which does not |
82 |
+ |
yet work with USB. If the keyboard/mouse does not work in xorg then |
83 |
+ |
add |
84 |
+ |
Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off" |
85 |
+ |
to your ServerLayout section. This will cause X to use the configured |
86 |
+ |
kbd and mouse sections from your xorg.conf |
87 |
+ |
|
88 |
+ |
20090403: |
89 |
+ |
mksh was disconnected a few day ago do to bugs with |
90 |
+ |
buildworld and mports. Now, connect it back |
91 |
+ |
for use as /bin/sh with a conditional called |
92 |
+ |
MK_ASH. By default, ash is the standard /bin/sh |
93 |
+ |
but we may change this later. This will allow further |
94 |
+ |
testing by users and developers of mksh without |
95 |
+ |
causing an unpleasant default experience. In the |
96 |
+ |
long run, we need to fix mksh compatibility. |
97 |
+ |
|
98 |
+ |
20090328: |
99 |
+ |
Bring in mksh R37 from CVS. The dot.mkshrc files for root |
100 |
+ |
and skel were changed. mksh(1) now replaces ash aka sh(1) |
101 |
+ |
as the default /bin/sh. Please report bugs with |
102 |
+ |
ports, etc. The ash code will remain in the repo for awhile |
103 |
+ |
as I decide if we'll add something like MK_SHELL_ASH as |
104 |
+ |
an optional build parameter. |
105 |
+ |
|
106 |
+ |
ahd was disconnected from the lint environment until |
107 |
+ |
the compiler bug is sorted (by updating gcc?) |
108 |
+ |
|
109 |
+ |
Remove freebsd-tips from fortune files and change the |
110 |
+ |
default for login and profile. |
111 |
+ |
|
112 |
+ |
20090327: |
113 |
+ |
Update libarchive to 2.5.5, tar, and add bsdcpio. |
114 |
+ |
|
115 |
+ |
Also previously, ctriv has been connecting Perl 5.10 |
116 |
+ |
to the build (part of os). This will have an impact |
117 |
+ |
on mports. |
118 |
+ |
|
119 |
+ |
20090325: |
120 |
+ |
Update Bind to 9.4.3-P1 |
121 |
+ |
|
122 |
+ |
Update mksh to R36b |
123 |
+ |
|
124 |
+ |
Update tcpdump to 3.9.8, fix libpcap to work with current. |
125 |
+ |
|
126 |
+ |
Update pnpinfo, sync with FreeBSD. |
127 |
+ |
|
128 |
+ |
20090115: |
129 |
+ |
Fix a problem with DNSSEC and BIND. |
130 |
+ |
|
131 |
+ |
20090110: |
132 |
+ |
For applications using OpenSSL for SSL connections, an invalid SSL |
133 |
+ |
certificate may be interpreted as valid. This could for example be |
134 |
+ |
used by an attacker to perform a man-in-the-middle attack. |
135 |
+ |
|
136 |
+ |
Other applications which use the OpenSSL EVP API may similarly be |
137 |
+ |
affected. |
138 |
+ |
|
139 |
+ |
Stop cross site request forgery attacks in lukemftpd |
140 |
+ |
|
141 |
+ |
20090104: |
142 |
+ |
Import GNU libreadline 5.2 |
143 |
+ |
|
144 |
+ |
20090101: |
145 |
+ |
Update time zone data to 2008i. |
146 |
+ |
|
147 |
+ |
20081231: |
148 |
+ |
Correct a problem where bluetooth and netgraph sockets are not |
149 |
+ |
properly initialized. |
150 |
+ |
|
151 |
+ |
Happy 2009. |
152 |
+ |
|
153 |
+ |
20081206: |
154 |
+ |
Due to the massive change in the underlying system under way, |
155 |
+ |
we're naming the next release 1.0. The sys/sys/param.h was |
156 |
+ |
changed accordingly. ipfilter and ncurses were corrected |
157 |
+ |
using __MidnightBSD__ tests in the code. |
158 |
+ |
|
159 |
+ |
The GENERIC kernel config was caught up on i386 today. Consider |
160 |
+ |
i386 still broken, but amd64 is running again. |
161 |
+ |
|
162 |
+ |
mdoc.local was updated with the new MidnightBSD version info. |
163 |
+ |
|
164 |
+ |
batt(1) was rewritten in C. It now supports several flags and |
165 |
+ |
runs about 8 times faster on my laptop. The default output |
166 |
+ |
shows the number of minutes of battery life remaining and the |
167 |
+ |
percentage. You can use -u to display the number of batteries or |
168 |
+ |
-c to get script friendly output. Consult the man page for more. |
169 |
+ |
|
170 |
+ |
20081204: |
171 |
+ |
Work has completed on importing ZFS, jemalloc, several |
172 |
+ |
new devices, SCTP, updated pf, a new tempfs, linuxolator 2.6 kernel |
173 |
+ |
support, improved locking for file desc., audit (openbsm), |
174 |
+ |
openssl .98e, nfe, imporved intel high def audio, midi, updated |
175 |
+ |
intel gigabit (em), support for several wifi cards (intel), ... |
176 |
+ |
|
177 |
+ |
Renamed 0.3-CURRENT officially. Switched to using MidnightBSD version |
178 |
+ |
data from param.h instead of the FreeBSD version. This means |
179 |
+ |
testing is now possible in the ports tree for the version |
180 |
+ |
and that any ports or code relying on the FreeBSD version from |
181 |
+ |
sys/sys/param.h will need to be fixed. |
182 |
+ |
|
183 |
+ |
20080905: |
184 |
+ |
update nve(4) to support new hardware. |
185 |
+ |
|
186 |
+ |
20080801: |
187 |
+ |
Import OpenBSM 1.0 |
188 |
+ |
|
189 |
+ |
Modify src/release to create 3 isos instead of 2 for packages. |
190 |
+ |
|
191 |
+ |
etc/rc.d/firstboot now enables kdm, gnustep + slim and bsdstats. |
192 |
+ |
|
193 |
+ |
Many ia64, alpha, powerpc items were removed. |
194 |
+ |
|
195 |
+ |
The recent diffutils 2.8.7 import was fixed. |
196 |
+ |
|
197 |
+ |
20080703: |
198 |
+ |
pcc was not installed properly when setting DESTDIR for live cds, |
199 |
+ |
or posibly jails. |
200 |
+ |
|
201 |
+ |
20080627: |
202 |
+ |
Add firmware(9), WEP, CCMP, TKIP to GENERIC. |
203 |
+ |
|
204 |
+ |
Add glabel to GENERIC. |
205 |
+ |
|
206 |
+ |
Intel ICH8 mobile chipset used on some iMacs included with ata. |
207 |
+ |
|
208 |
+ |
pcc connected to the build on i386. (alternative compiler) |
209 |
+ |
|
210 |
+ |
ath added to GENERIC. (Atheros wireless NICs) on amd64/i386 |
211 |
+ |
|
212 |
+ |
20080528: |
213 |
+ |
Sendmail 8.14.3 |
214 |
+ |
|
215 |
+ |
20080516: |
216 |
+ |
ssh-vulnkey allows you to look for vulnerable ssh keys that |
217 |
+ |
were generated on Debian and Ubuntu hosts over the last |
218 |
+ |
few years. sshd can block offending keys with a configuration |
219 |
+ |
option. |
220 |
+ |
|
221 |
+ |
The elf note on binaries is now set to MidnightBSD. |
222 |
+ |
|
223 |
+ |
20080514: |
224 |
+ |
Fixed a number of problems with pcc. It is not yet connected |
225 |
+ |
to the build, but usable on i386 hosts. You may use it |
226 |
+ |
by make; make install in /usr/src/usr.bin/pcc. It will |
227 |
+ |
install in /usr/local as some of the files conflict with |
228 |
+ |
GCC versions. __MidnightBSD__ is defined in PCC as well. |
229 |
+ |
|
230 |
+ |
System headers were fixed to allow pcc to compile many binaries |
231 |
+ |
on MidnightBSD. bin/cp will work now for instance. |
232 |
+ |
|
233 |
|
20080430: |
234 |
|
__MidnightBSD__ is now defined via gcc. This can be tested |
235 |
|
to determine we're running on MidnightBSD in the preprocessor. |
