247503fedb192bb32d22a8606d471c654854517d - apmd: Retire the APM daemon

Wed, 30 Sep 2026 18:20:02 +0200

apmd: Retire the APM daemonThe original purpose of this daemon was to route power managementrequests to userspace, e.g. when the suspend button was pressed, theAPM driver posted an event read by apmd(8) that would invoke zzz(8) tosuspend. However, on ACPI systems this is handled by devd(8) eventsinstead and running apmd(8) in addition just adds extra complexity.This probably should have been axed when the APM BIOS support wasretired in commit 8c576a279ed5.Reviewed by: impDifferential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D59937 List of files: /freebsd/share/examples/etc/README.examples

Mon, 29 Sep 2025 22:26:26 +0200

Remove ftpd(8)This was previously deprecated and is slated for removal in 15.0.Users who still need ftpd(8) can install the ftp/freebsd-ftpd port.Retain the ftp(d) PAM services since other FTP daemons use them.Update /etc/inetd.conf to point to /usr/local.Add ftpd to ObsoleteFiles, but do not list configuration files sinceusers may want to preserve these to use with the freebsd-ftpd port.There is still some language in the manual referring to ftpd(8)which is relevant to the port, which has been retained but updatedto reference the port.MFC after: 3 daysRelnotes: yesReviewed by: cpercivaDifferential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D52739 List of files: /freebsd/share/examples/etc/README.examples

Remove portsnap(8)Rather than having a tool in the FreeBSD base system for obtainingthe FreeBSD ports tree, users are encouraged to `pkg install git`and then `git clone https://git.FreeBSD.org/ports.git /usr/ports`.The portsnap servers will continue operating until FreeBSD 13 reachesits End-of-Life, and portsnap is available from the ports tree asports-mgmt/portsnap.Requested by: portmgrRelnotes: yesDifferential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D39563X-MFC: no List of files: /freebsd/share/examples/etc/README.examples

Disconnect non-MPSAFE SMBFS from the build in preparation for droppingGIANT from VFS. In addition, disconnect also netsmb, which is a baserequirement for SMBFS.In the while SMBFS regular users can use FUSE interface and smbnetfsport to work with their SMBFS partitions.Also, there are ongoing efforts by vendor to support in-kernel smbfs,so there are good chances that it will get relinked once properly locked.This is not targeted for MFC.

Tue, 12 Jun 2012 19:02:53 +0200

Finally nuke auth.conf, nine years after it was deprecated. The onlything it was still used for was to set the "global default" passwordhash. Since the stock auth.conf contained nothing but comments, theglobal default was actually the first algorithm in crypt(3)'s list,which happens to be DES; I take the fact that nobody noticed as proofthat it was not used outside of crypt(3).The only other use in our tree was in the Kerberos support code inin tinyware's passwd(1). I removed that code in an earlier commit;it would not have compiled anyway, as it only supported Kerberos IV.The auth_getval() function is now a stub that always returns NULL,which has the same effect as a functional auth_getval() with anempty auth.conf.MFC after: 3 weeks List of files: /freebsd/share/examples/etc/README.examples
