13*cda1f88dSWarner Loshvarious:
1459b83c47SWarner Losh	One True Awk has been updated to the latest from upstream
1559b83c47SWarner Losh	(20210215). 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.

27*cda1f88dSWarner Loshee29e6f31111:
28be7c6470SRick Macklem	Commit ee29e6f31111 added a new sysctl called vfs.nfsd.srvmaxio
29be7c6470SRick Macklem	that can be used to increase the maximum I/O size for the NFS
30be7c6470SRick Macklem	server to any power of 2 up to 1Mbyte while the nfsd(8) is not running.
31be7c6470SRick Macklem	The FreeBSD NFS client can now be set to use a 1Mbyte I/O size
32be7c6470SRick Macklem	via the vfs.maxbcachebuf tunable and the Linux NFS client
33be7c6470SRick Macklem	can also do 1Mbyte I/O.
34be7c6470SRick Macklem	kern.ipc.maxsockbuf will need to be increased.  A console
35be7c6470SRick Macklem	message will suggest a setting for it.

37*cda1f88dSWarner Loshd575e81fbcfa:
38df4e9787SWarner Losh	gconcat(8) has added support for appending devices to the device
39df4e9787SWarner Losh	not present at creation time.

41*cda1f88dSWarner Losh76681661be28:
421f64f32aSJohn Baldwin	Remove support for asymmetric cryptographic operations from
4306cdfe2dSJohn Baldwin	the kernel open cryptographic framework (OCF).
44b49ba74dSRick Macklem
45*cda1f88dSWarner Losha145cf3f73c7:
46b49ba74dSRick Macklem	The NFSv4 client now uses the highest minor version of NFSv4
47b49ba74dSRick Macklem	supported by the NFSv4 server by default instead of minor version 0,
48b49ba74dSRick Macklem	for NFSv4 mounts.
49b49ba74dSRick Macklem	The "minorversion" mount option may be used to override this default.
