This adds support for new 16 controllers, adds code that utilizes the new BIG_IOCTL_Command_struct 17 and allows the I/O buffer size for a single passthrough ioctl to be 18 stored as a 32 bit integer instead of the original 16 bit integer. 19 20b0d997095022: 21 The pf firewall now supports passing IPv6 packets to divert(4) 22 sockets via divert-to actions. 23 240fa7b3bee72e, c71f18998e0b, 4162a419a475, f5a77dc8f8df: 25 LinuxKPI based wireless drivers, especially iwlwifi(4) are now 26 supported on RISC-V. 27 288254b0dec02b3, bd55cbb50c588: 29 The mac(4) framework has been extended to support jail operations, 30 allowing a policy to constrain jail creation, modification, removal, and 31 attachment. Jails have additionally been made a first-class mac(4) 32 object, and a mac.label jail(8) property has been added to facilitate 33 administration of their labels. 34 35c558eca47970: 36 The smartpqi(4) driver was updated to vendor version 4660.0.2002 37 for the SmartArry storage controllers. 38 39493d26c58e73: 40 The aq(4) driver was added, imported from the vendor repository. 41 This provides support for Aquantia / Marvell PCIe 1/2.5/5/10 Gigabit 42 Ethernet adapters (AQC107, AQC108, AQC109, AQC111, AQC112). 43 441a7151f79664: 45 A new CAM provider was added to dtrace. This enables tracing of I/O 46 requests through the CAM layer without relying on fragile function 47 boundary tracing. See dtrace_cam(4) for details. 48 49b8c99e7d912f: 50 The tdestroy(3) function was added to libc. The tdestroy() function 51 destroys a whole search tree, freeing all allocated nodes. 52 534bf8ce037dc8: 54 The rge(4) driver was added, ported from OpenBSD. This provides 55 support for RealTek RTL8125, RTL8126 and RTL8127 PCIe Ethernet 56 controllers. 57 58cbc6f7e941e4: 59 bhyve(8)'s VNC device can now listen on a unix(4) socket for VNC client 60 connections. 61 6239ee24182b92: 63 An rc(8) service can now be started as a specific user for auditing 64 purposes by setting the <service>_audit_user rc.conf(5) variable. 65 66dcb0790bad43: 67 A setaudit(8) utility was added to the base system. This provides a 68 simple command-line wrapper for the setaudit(2) and setaudit_addr(2) 69 system calls. 70 718e3fd450cc53, 949cff4dceff, 0e724de9ed6f, 9f49f436a9ec, e35191ccf3b3: 72 Add support for an extension to NFSv4.2 (RFCnnnn) that 73 supports handling of POSIX draft ACLs via getfacl(1)/setfacl(1). 74 75dbac191956f9, fe21dbf70aa8: 76 Support for the kcmp(2) system call and fcntl(F_DUPFD_QUERY) for Linux 77 binaries. 78 79a86dc94b84d1: 80 tzdata2025c was imported. 81 82a98e5d785001: 83 Add strdupa(3) and strndupa(3) macros for compatability with glibc. 84 85e967a2a03677: 86 divert socket compat removal, consumers must use PF_DIVERT instead of 87 PF_INET. 88 894453ec5b8716b, 2a3b1641756a: 90 The reboot(8) and halt(8) commands now perform a graceful shutdown similar 91 to the shutdown(8) command including invoking rc.d scripts to shutdown 92 services. The fastboot(8) and fasthalt(8) commands still perform a "fast" 93 reboot or shutdown. 94 95d9788eabffa4: 96 ipfilter cannot be used in a jail by default. 97 980ff0c19e7f70: 99 ipfs(8) is no longer built by default. 100 101575efcfff22f: 102 sendfile(2)'s SF_SYNC flag was removed. 103 104057dae35ffc6, 51a01f3debff, ca3e47b0ea68: 105 hwpmc(4) support for Intel Alder Lake 6-B7, 6-BA, and 6-BF CPU 106 hwpmc(4) support for Intel Emerald Rapids CPUs 107 hwpmc(4) support for Intel Alder Lake-N CPUs 108 1091ecf01065b45: 110 New library libuvmem provides the vmem(9) API to userspace applications. 111 112b6cad334e64: 113 Make game controller devices accessible by members of the "game" group 114 by default. 115 116791c531402bd: 117 Add driver for Feature Integration Technology Inc. (aka Fintek) F81232 118 USB to serial devices. 119 120ec0cd287f55f: 121 Support for NVMe/TCP offload on Chelsio T7 adapters. The nvmf_che(4) 122 module enables T7 adapters to process NVMe/TCP PDUs directly similar to 123 the PDU offload provided by cxgbei(4) for iSCSI. 124
