All the FreeBSD patches, but one, have now been 3059b83c47SWarner Losh either up streamed or discarded. Notable changes include: 3159b83c47SWarner Losh o Locale is no longer used for ranges 3259b83c47SWarner Losh o Various bugs fixed 3359b83c47SWarner Losh o Better compatibility with gawk and mawk 3459b83c47SWarner Losh 3559b83c47SWarner Losh The one FreeBSD change, likely to be removed in FreeBSD 14, is that 3659b83c47SWarner Losh we still allow hex numbers, prefixed with 0x, to be parsed and 3759b83c47SWarner Losh interpreted as hex numbers while all other awks (including one 3859b83c47SWarner Losh true awk now) interpret them as 0 in line with awk's historic 3959b83c47SWarner Losh behavior. 4059b83c47SWarner Losh 41818edf67SWarner Losh A second change, less likely to be noticed, is the historic wart 42818edf67SWarner Losh if -Ft meaning to use hard tab characters as the field separator 43818edf67SWarner Losh is deprecated and will likely be removed in FreeBSD 14. 44818edf67SWarner Losh 45cda1f88dSWarner Loshee29e6f31111: 46be7c6470SRick Macklem Commit ee29e6f31111 added a new sysctl called vfs.nfsd.srvmaxio 47be7c6470SRick Macklem that can be used to increase the maximum I/O size for the NFS 48be7c6470SRick Macklem server to any power of 2 up to 1Mbyte while the nfsd(8) is not running. 49be7c6470SRick Macklem The FreeBSD NFS client can now be set to use a 1Mbyte I/O size 50be7c6470SRick Macklem via the vfs.maxbcachebuf tunable and the Linux NFS client 51be7c6470SRick Macklem can also do 1Mbyte I/O. 52be7c6470SRick Macklem kern.ipc.maxsockbuf will need to be increased. A console 53be7c6470SRick Macklem message will suggest a setting for it. 54be7c6470SRick Macklem 55cda1f88dSWarner Loshd575e81fbcfa: 56df4e9787SWarner Losh gconcat(8) has added support for appending devices to the device 57df4e9787SWarner Losh not present at creation time. 58dd3fd6b8SWarner Losh 59cda1f88dSWarner Losh76681661be28: 601f64f32aSJohn Baldwin Remove support for asymmetric cryptographic operations from 6106cdfe2dSJohn Baldwin the kernel open cryptographic framework (OCF). 62b49ba74dSRick Macklem 63cda1f88dSWarner Losha145cf3f73c7: 64b49ba74dSRick Macklem The NFSv4 client now uses the highest minor version of NFSv4 65b49ba74dSRick Macklem supported by the NFSv4 server by default instead of minor version 0, 66b49ba74dSRick Macklem for NFSv4 mounts. 67b49ba74dSRick Macklem The "minorversion" mount option may be used to override this default. 68
