1Release notes for FreeBSD 13.0. 2 3This file describes new user-visible features, changes and updates relevant to 4users of binary FreeBSD releases. Each entry should describe the change in no 5more than several sentences and should reference manual pages where an 6interested user can find more information. Entries should wrap after 80 7columns. Each entry should begin with one or more commit IDs on one line, 8specified as a comma separated list and/or range, followed by a colon and a 9newline. Entries should be separated by a newline. 10 11Changes to this file should not be MFCed. 12 13r354517: 14 iwm(4) now supports most Intel 9260, 9460 and 9560 Wi-Fi devices. 15 16r354269: 17 sqlite3 is updated to sqlite3-3.30.1. 18 19r352668: 20 cron(8) now supports the -n (suppress mail on succesful run) and -q 21 (suppress logging of command execution) options in the crontab format. 22 See the crontab(5) manpage for details. 23 24r352304: 25 ntpd is no longer by default locked in memory. rlimit memlock 32 26 or rlimit memlock 0 can be used to restore this behaviour. 27 28r351522: 29 Add kernel-side support for in-kernel Transport Layer Security 30 (KTLS). KTLS permits using sendfile(2) over sockets using 31 TLS. 32 33r351397: 34 WPA is updated from 2.8 to 2.9. 35 36r351361: 37 Add probes for lockmgr(9) to the lockstat DTrace provider, add 38 corresponding lockstat(1) events, and document the new probes in 39 dtrace_lockstat.4. 40 41r351356: 42 Intel RST is a new 'feature' that remaps NVMe devices from 43 their normal location to part of the AHCI bar space. This 44 will eliminate the need to set the BIOS SATA setting from RST 45 to AHCI causing the nvme drive to be erased before FreeBSD 46 will see the nvme drive. FreeBSD will now be able to see the 47 nvme drive now in the default config. 48 49r351201, r351372: 50 Add a vop_stdioctl() call, so that file systems that do not support 51 holes will have a trivial implementation of lseek(SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE). 52 The algorithm appears to be compatible with the POSIX draft and 53 the implementation in Linux for the case of a file system that 54 does not support holes. Prior to this patch, lseek(2) would reply 55 -1 with errno set to ENOTTY for SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE on files in 56 file systems that do not support holes. 57 r351372 maps ENOTTY to EINVAL for lseek(SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE) for 58 any other cases, such as a ENOTTY return from vn_bmap_seekhole(). 59 60r350665: 61 The fuse driver has been renamed to fusefs(5) and been substantially 62 rewritten. The new driver includes many bug fixes and performance 63 enhancements, as well as the following user-visible features: 64 * Optional kernel-side permissions checks (-o default_permissions) 65 * mknod(2), socket(2), and pipe(2) support 66 * server side locking with fcntl(2) 67 * FUSE operations are now interruptible when mounted with -o intr 68 * server side handling of UTIME_NOW during utimensat(2) 69 * mount options may be updated with "mount -u" 70 * fusefs file system may now be exported over NFS 71 * RLIMIT_FSIZE support 72 * support for fuse file systems using protocols as old as 7.4 73 74 FUSE file system developers should also take note of the following new 75 features: 76 * The protocol level has been raised from 7.8 to 7.23 77 * kqueue support on /dev/fuse 78 * server-initiated cache invalidation via FUSE_NOTIFY_REPLY 79 80r350471: 81 gnop(8) can now configure a delay to be applied to read and write 82 request delays. See the -d, -q and -x parameters. 83 84r350315, r350316: 85 Adds a Linux compatible copy_file_range(2) syscall. 86 87r350307: 88 libcap_random(3) has been removed. Applications can use native 89 APIs to get random data in capability mode. 90 91r349529,r349530: 92 Add support for using unmapped mbufs with sendfile(2). 93 94r349352: 95 nand(4) and related components have been removed. 96 97r349349: 98 The UEFI loader now supports HTTP boot. 99 100r349335: 101 bhyve(8) now implements a High Definition Audio (HDA) driver, allowing 102 guests to play to and record audio data from the host. 103 104r349286: 105 swapon(8) can now erase a swap device immediately before enabling it, 106 similar to newfs(8)'s -E option. This behaviour can be specified by 107 adding -E to swapon(8)'s command-line parameters, or by adding the 108 "trimonce" option to a swap device's /etc/fstab entry. 109 110r347908-r347923: 111 The following network drivers have been removed: bm(4), cs(4), de(4), 112 ed(4), ep(4), ex(4), fe(4), pcn(4), sf(4), sn(4), tl(4), tx(4), txp(4), 113 vx(4), wb(4), xe(4). 114 115$FreeBSD$ 116
