All the FreeBSD patches, but one, have now been 1659b83c47SWarner Losh either up streamed or discarded. Notable changes include: 1759b83c47SWarner Losh o Locale is no longer used for ranges 1859b83c47SWarner Losh o Various bugs fixed 1959b83c47SWarner Losh o Better compatibility with gawk and mawk 2059b83c47SWarner Losh 2159b83c47SWarner Losh The one FreeBSD change, likely to be removed in FreeBSD 14, is that 2259b83c47SWarner Losh we still allow hex numbers, prefixed with 0x, to be parsed and 2359b83c47SWarner Losh interpreted as hex numbers while all other awks (including one 2459b83c47SWarner Losh true awk now) interpret them as 0 in line with awk's historic 2559b83c47SWarner Losh behavior. 2659b83c47SWarner Losh 27*818edf67SWarner Losh A second change, less likely to be noticed, is the historic wart 28*818edf67SWarner Losh if -Ft meaning to use hard tab characters as the field separator 29*818edf67SWarner Losh is deprecated and will likely be removed in FreeBSD 14. 30*818edf67SWarner Losh 31cda1f88dSWarner Loshee29e6f31111: 32be7c6470SRick Macklem Commit ee29e6f31111 added a new sysctl called vfs.nfsd.srvmaxio 33be7c6470SRick Macklem that can be used to increase the maximum I/O size for the NFS 34be7c6470SRick Macklem server to any power of 2 up to 1Mbyte while the nfsd(8) is not running. 35be7c6470SRick Macklem The FreeBSD NFS client can now be set to use a 1Mbyte I/O size 36be7c6470SRick Macklem via the vfs.maxbcachebuf tunable and the Linux NFS client 37be7c6470SRick Macklem can also do 1Mbyte I/O. 38be7c6470SRick Macklem kern.ipc.maxsockbuf will need to be increased. A console 39be7c6470SRick Macklem message will suggest a setting for it. 40be7c6470SRick Macklem 41cda1f88dSWarner Loshd575e81fbcfa: 42df4e9787SWarner Losh gconcat(8) has added support for appending devices to the device 43df4e9787SWarner Losh not present at creation time. 44dd3fd6b8SWarner Losh 45cda1f88dSWarner Losh76681661be28: 461f64f32aSJohn Baldwin Remove support for asymmetric cryptographic operations from 4706cdfe2dSJohn Baldwin the kernel open cryptographic framework (OCF). 48b49ba74dSRick Macklem 49cda1f88dSWarner Losha145cf3f73c7: 50b49ba74dSRick Macklem The NFSv4 client now uses the highest minor version of NFSv4 51b49ba74dSRick Macklem supported by the NFSv4 server by default instead of minor version 0, 52b49ba74dSRick Macklem for NFSv4 mounts. 53b49ba74dSRick Macklem The "minorversion" mount option may be used to override this default. 54
