144f1def68SWarner LoshNOTE: FreeBSD has switched from gcc to clang. If you have trouble bootstrapping
15a46954e2SWarner Loshfrom older versions of FreeBSD, try WITHOUT_CLANG and WITH_GCC to bootstrap to
16a8f2a2b9SEd Mastethe tip of head, and then rebuild without this option. The bootstrap process
17a8f2a2b9SEd Mastefrom older version of current across the gcc/clang cutover is a bit fragile.

19ae940db1SGlen BarberNOTE TO PEOPLE WHO THINK THAT FreeBSD 12.x IS SLOW:
20981b538fSGlen Barber	FreeBSD 12.x has many debugging features turned on, in both the kernel
21456b5dd8SWarner Losh	and userland.  These features attempt to detect incorrect use of
22456b5dd8SWarner Losh	system primitives, and encourage loud failure through extra sanity
23456b5dd8SWarner Losh	checking and fail stop semantics.  They also substantially impact
24456b5dd8SWarner Losh	system performance.  If you want to do performance measurement,
25456b5dd8SWarner Losh	benchmarking, and optimization, you'll want to turn them off.  This
26456b5dd8SWarner Losh	includes various WITNESS- related kernel options, INVARIANTS, malloc
27456b5dd8SWarner Losh	debugging flags in userland, and various verbose features in the
28456b5dd8SWarner Losh	kernel.  Many developers choose to disable these features on build
2999e449f2SJason Evans	machines to maximize performance.  (To completely disable malloc
3099e449f2SJason Evans	debugging, define MALLOC_PRODUCTION in /etc/make.conf, or to merely
3199e449f2SJason Evans	disable the most expensive debugging functionality run
32fca3dcdfSWarner Losh	"ln -s 'abort:false,junk:false' /etc/malloc.conf".)

355ad05815SWarner Losh****************************** SPECIAL WARNING: ******************************
365ad05815SWarner Losh
375ad05815SWarner Losh	Due to a bug in some versions of clang that's very hard to workaround in
385ad05815SWarner Losh	the upgrade process, to upgrade to -current you must first upgrade
39fca3dcdfSWarner Losh	either stable/9 after r286035 or stable/10 after r286033 (including
40fca3dcdfSWarner Losh	10.3-RELEASE) or current after r286007 (including stable/11 and
41fca3dcdfSWarner Losh	11.0-RELEASE). These revisions post-date the 10.2 and 9.3 releases, so
42fca3dcdfSWarner Losh	you'll need to take the unusual step of upgrading to the tip of the
43fca3dcdfSWarner Losh	stable branch before moving to 11 or -current via a source upgrade.
4490136961SWarner Losh	stable/11 and 11.0-RELEASE have working newer compiler. This differs
4590136961SWarner Losh	from the historical situation where one could upgrade from anywhere on
4690136961SWarner Losh	the last couple of stable branches, so be careful.
4790136961SWarner Losh
4890136961SWarner Losh	If you're running a hybrid system on 9.x or 10.x with an updated clang
4990136961SWarner Losh	compiler or are using an supported external toolchain, the build system
5090136961SWarner Losh	will allow the upgrade. Otherwise it will print a reminder.

54011717d3SEmmanuel Vadot20170620:
55*fcf8f4a8SEmmanuel Vadot	Switch back to the BSDL dtc (Device Tree Compiler). Set WITH_GPL_DTC
56011717d3SEmmanuel Vadot	if you require the GPL compiler.
57011717d3SEmmanuel Vadot
5833ecebd1SRick Macklem20170618:
5933ecebd1SRick Macklem	The internal ABI used for communication between the NFS kernel modules
6033ecebd1SRick Macklem	was changed by r320085, so __FreeBSD_version was bumped to
6133ecebd1SRick Macklem	ensure all the NFS related modules are updated together.
6233ecebd1SRick Macklem
639a96ba16SKonstantin Belousov20170617:
649a96ba16SKonstantin Belousov	The ABI of struct event was changed by extending the data
659a96ba16SKonstantin Belousov	member to 64bit and adding ext fields.  For upgrade, same
669a96ba16SKonstantin Belousov	precautions as for the entry 20170523 "ino64" must be
679a96ba16SKonstantin Belousov	followed.
689a96ba16SKonstantin Belousov
69472c2b48SEd Maste20170531:
70472c2b48SEd Maste	The GNU roff toolchain has been removed from base. To render manpages
71472c2b48SEd Maste	which are not supported by mandoc(1), man(1) can fallback on GNU roff
72472c2b48SEd Maste	from ports (and recommends to install it).
73472c2b48SEd Maste	To render roff(7) documents, consider using GNU roff from ports or the
74472c2b48SEd Maste	heirloom doctools roff toolchain from ports via pkg install groff or
75472c2b48SEd Maste	via pkg install heirloom-doctools.
76472c2b48SEd Maste
779949595eSAdrian Chadd20170524:
789949595eSAdrian Chadd	The ath(4) and ath_hal(4) modules now build piecemeal to allow for
799949595eSAdrian Chadd	smaller runtime footprint builds.  This is useful for embedded systems
809949595eSAdrian Chadd	which only require one chipset support.
819949595eSAdrian Chadd
829949595eSAdrian Chadd	If you load it as a module, make sure this is in /boot/loader.conf:
839949595eSAdrian Chadd
849949595eSAdrian Chadd	if_ath_load="YES"
859949595eSAdrian Chadd
869949595eSAdrian Chadd	This will load the HAL, all chip/RF backends and if_ath_pci.
879949595eSAdrian Chadd	If you have if_ath_pci in /boot/loader.conf, ensure it is after
889949595eSAdrian Chadd	if_ath or it will not load any HAL chipset support.
899949595eSAdrian Chadd
909949595eSAdrian Chadd	If you want to selectively load things (eg on ye cheape ARM/MIPS
919949595eSAdrian Chadd	platforms where RAM is at a premium) you should:
929949595eSAdrian Chadd
939949595eSAdrian Chadd	* load ath_hal
949949595eSAdrian Chadd	* load the chip modules in question
959949595eSAdrian Chadd	* load ath_rate, ath_dfs
969949595eSAdrian Chadd	* load ath_main
979949595eSAdrian Chadd	* load if_ath_pci and/or if_ath_ahb depending upon your particular
989949595eSAdrian Chadd	  bus bind type - this is where probe/attach is done.
999949595eSAdrian Chadd

1019949595eSAdrian Chadd
102b149eba4SEd Maste20170523:
103b149eba4SEd Maste	The "ino64" 64-bit inode project has been committed, which extends
104dcfffd04SEd Maste	a number of types to 64 bits.  Upgrading in place requires care and
105dcfffd04SEd Maste	adherence to the documented upgrade procedure.
106dcfffd04SEd Maste
107dcfffd04SEd Maste	If using a custom kernel configuration ensure that the
108dcfffd04SEd Maste	COMPAT_FREEBSD11 option is included (as during the upgrade the
109dcfffd04SEd Maste	system will be running the ino64 kernel with the existing world).
110dcfffd04SEd Maste
111dcfffd04SEd Maste	For the safest in-place upgrade begin by removing previous build
112dcfffd04SEd Maste	artifacts via "rm -rf /usr/obj/*".   Then, carefully follow the
113dcfffd04SEd Maste	full procedure documented below under the heading "To rebuild
114dcfffd04SEd Maste	everything and install it on the current system."  Specifically,
115dcfffd04SEd Maste	a reboot is required after installing the new kernel before
116dcfffd04SEd Maste	installing world.
117b149eba4SEd Maste
118a25a1ff4SBrooks Davis20170424:
119a25a1ff4SBrooks Davis	The NATM framework including the en(4), fatm(4), hatm(4), and
120a25a1ff4SBrooks Davis	patm(4) devices has been removed.  Consumers should plan a
121a25a1ff4SBrooks Davis	migration before the end-of-life date for FreeBSD 11.
122a25a1ff4SBrooks Davis
123a17665bcSBaptiste Daroussin20170420:
124a17665bcSBaptiste Daroussin	GNU diff has been replaced by a BSD licensed diff. Some features of GNU
125a17665bcSBaptiste Daroussin	diff has not been implemented, if those are needed a newer version of
126a17665bcSBaptiste Daroussin	GNU diff is available via the diffutils package under the gdiff name.
127a17665bcSBaptiste Daroussin
1285810e45bSCy Schubert20170413:
1295810e45bSCy Schubert	As of r316810 for ipfilter, keep frags is no longer assumed when
1305810e45bSCy Schubert	keep state is specified in a rule. r316810 aligns ipfilter with
1315810e45bSCy Schubert	documentation in man pages separating keep frags from keep state.
132a3a09aefSJens Schweikhardt	This allows keep state to be specified without forcing keep frags
1335810e45bSCy Schubert	and allows keep frags to be specified independently of keep state.
1345810e45bSCy Schubert	To maintain previous behaviour, also specify keep frags with
1350cad3ecaSCy Schubert	keep state (as documented in ipf.conf.5).
1365810e45bSCy Schubert
1371bf5e133SEd Maste20170407:
1381bf5e133SEd Maste	arm64 builds now use the base system LLD 4.0.0 linker by default,
1391bf5e133SEd Maste	instead of requiring that the aarch64-binutils port or package be
1401bf5e133SEd Maste	installed. To continue using aarch64-binutils, set
1411bf5e133SEd Maste	CROSS_BINUTILS_PREFIX=/usr/local/aarch64-freebsd/bin .
1421bf5e133SEd Maste
14328da7a25SBryan Drewery20170405:
14428da7a25SBryan Drewery	The UDP optimization in entry 20160818 that added the sysctl
14528da7a25SBryan Drewery	net.inet.udp.require_l2_bcast has been reverted.  L2 broadcast
14628da7a25SBryan Drewery	packets will no longer be treated as L3 broadcast packets.
14728da7a25SBryan Drewery
1486ebc1b7bSSteven Hartland20170331:
1494d806fc6SSteven Hartland	Binds and sends to the loopback addresses, IPv6 and IPv4, will now
1506ebc1b7bSSteven Hartland	use any explicitly assigned loopback address available in the jail
1514d806fc6SSteven Hartland	instead of using the first assigned address of the jail.
1526ebc1b7bSSteven Hartland
1530458b265SEnji Cooper20170329:
1540458b265SEnji Cooper	The ctl.ko module no longer implements the iSCSI target frontend:
1550458b265SEnji Cooper	cfiscsi.ko does instead.
1560458b265SEnji Cooper
1570458b265SEnji Cooper	If building cfiscsi.ko as a kernel module, the module can be loaded
1580458b265SEnji Cooper	via one of the following methods:
1590458b265SEnji Cooper	- `cfiscsi_load="YES"` in loader.conf(5).
1600458b265SEnji Cooper	- Add `cfiscsi` to `$kld_list` in rc.conf(5).
1610458b265SEnji Cooper	- ctladm(8)/ctld(8), when compiled with iSCSI support
1620458b265SEnji Cooper	  (`WITH_ISCSI=yes` in src.conf(5))
1630458b265SEnji Cooper
1640458b265SEnji Cooper	Please see cfiscsi(4) for more details.
1650458b265SEnji Cooper
16672dec079SMarius Strobl20170316:
16772dec079SMarius Strobl	The mmcsd.ko module now additionally depends on geom_flashmap.ko.
16872dec079SMarius Strobl	Also, mmc.ko and mmcsd.ko need to be a matching pair built from the
16972dec079SMarius Strobl	same source (previously, the dependency of mmcsd.ko on mmc.ko was
17072dec079SMarius Strobl	missing, but mmcsd.ko now will refuse to load if it is incompatible
17172dec079SMarius Strobl	with mmc.ko).
17272dec079SMarius Strobl
1736ed14738SAndrey V. Elsukov20170315:
1746ed14738SAndrey V. Elsukov	The syntax of ipfw(8) named states was changed to avoid ambiguity.
1756ed14738SAndrey V. Elsukov	If you have used named states in the firewall rules, you need to modify
1766ed14738SAndrey V. Elsukov	them after installworld and before rebooting. Now named states must
1776ed14738SAndrey V. Elsukov	be prefixed with colon.
1786ed14738SAndrey V. Elsukov
1793bbe3f67SBaptiste Daroussin20170311:
180f7c23774SEmmanuel Vadot	The old drm (sys/dev/drm/) drivers for i915 and radeon have been
181f7c23774SEmmanuel Vadot	removed as the userland we provide cannot use them. The KMS version
182a3a09aefSJens Schweikhardt	(sys/dev/drm2) supports the same hardware.
183f7c23774SEmmanuel Vadot
184e1bb2a82SDimitry Andric20170302:
185617b5f75SDimitry Andric	Clang, llvm, lldb, compiler-rt and libc++ have been upgraded to 4.0.0.
186617b5f75SDimitry Andric	Please see the 20141231 entry below for information about prerequisites
187617b5f75SDimitry Andric	and upgrading, if you are not already using clang 3.5.0 or higher.
188617b5f75SDimitry Andric
189e9a0a054SAndriy Gapon20170221:
190e9a0a054SAndriy Gapon	The code that provides support for ZFS .zfs/ directory functionality
191e9a0a054SAndriy Gapon	has been reimplemented.  It's not possible now to create a snapshot
192e9a0a054SAndriy Gapon	by mkdir under .zfs/snapshot/.  That should be the only user visible
193e9a0a054SAndriy Gapon	change.
194e9a0a054SAndriy Gapon
19518f447edSWarner Losh20170216:
19618f447edSWarner Losh	EISA bus support has been removed. The WITH_EISA option is no longer
19718f447edSWarner Losh	valid.
19818f447edSWarner Losh
19918f447edSWarner Losh20170215:
20018f447edSWarner Losh	MCA bus support has been removed.
20118f447edSWarner Losh
202f52e4bdfSEd Maste20170127:
203f52e4bdfSEd Maste	The WITH_LLD_AS_LD / WITHOUT_LLD_AS_LD build knobs have been renamed
204f52e4bdfSEd Maste	WITH_LLD_IS_LD / WITHOUT_LLD_IS_LD, for consistency with CLANG_IS_CC.
205f52e4bdfSEd Maste
206062a4b8cSSean Bruno20170112:
207062a4b8cSSean Bruno	The EM_MULTIQUEUE kernel configuration option is deprecated now that
208062a4b8cSSean Bruno	the em(4) driver conforms to iflib specifications.
209062a4b8cSSean Bruno
210f2d6ace4SSean Bruno20170109:
211f2d6ace4SSean Bruno	The igb(4), em(4) and lem(4) ethernet drivers are now implemented via
212f2d6ace4SSean Bruno	IFLIB.  If you have a custom kernel configuration that excludes em(4)
213f2d6ace4SSean Bruno	but you use igb(4), you need to re-add em(4) to your custom configuration.
214f2d6ace4SSean Bruno
2154644fe91SDimitry Andric20161217:
21645bd65d6SDimitry Andric	Clang, llvm, lldb, compiler-rt and libc++ have been upgraded to 3.9.1.
21745bd65d6SDimitry Andric	Please see the 20141231 entry below for information about prerequisites
21845bd65d6SDimitry Andric	and upgrading, if you are not already using clang 3.5.0 or higher.

2207736f1a9SDimitry Andric20161124:
2217736f1a9SDimitry Andric	Clang, llvm, lldb, compiler-rt and libc++ have been upgraded to 3.9.0.
2227736f1a9SDimitry Andric	Please see the 20141231 entry below for information about prerequisites
2237736f1a9SDimitry Andric	and upgrading, if you are not already using clang 3.5.0 or higher.
2247736f1a9SDimitry Andric
2254026b447SJustin Hibbits20161119:
2264026b447SJustin Hibbits	The layout of the pmap structure has changed for powerpc to put the pmap
2274026b447SJustin Hibbits	statistics at the front for all CPU variations.  libkvm(3) and all tools
2284026b447SJustin Hibbits	that link against it need to be recompiled.
2294026b447SJustin Hibbits
230448897d3SAndriy Gapon20161030:
231448897d3SAndriy Gapon	isl(4) and cyapa(4) drivers now require a new driver,
232448897d3SAndriy Gapon	chromebook_platform(4), to work properly on Chromebook-class hardware.
233448897d3SAndriy Gapon	On other types of hardware the drivers may need to be configured using
234448897d3SAndriy Gapon	device hints.  Please see the corresponding manual pages for details.
235448897d3SAndriy Gapon
2362616dd0bSAndriy Voskoboinyk20161017:
2372616dd0bSAndriy Voskoboinyk	The urtwn(4) driver was merged into rtwn(4) and now consists of
2382616dd0bSAndriy Voskoboinyk	rtwn(4) main module + rtwn_usb(4) and rtwn_pci(4) bus-specific
2392616dd0bSAndriy Voskoboinyk	parts.
2402616dd0bSAndriy Voskoboinyk	Also, firmware for RTL8188CE was renamed due to possible name
2412616dd0bSAndriy Voskoboinyk	conflict (rtwnrtl8192cU(B) -> rtwnrtl8192cE(B))
2422616dd0bSAndriy Voskoboinyk
243a0135a1eSBaptiste Daroussin20161015:
244963d6c18SBaptiste Daroussin	GNU rcs has been removed from base.  It is available as packages:
245a0135a1eSBaptiste Daroussin	- rcs: Latest GPLv3 GNU rcs version.
24631b54b30SBaptiste Daroussin	- rcs57: Copy of the latest version of GNU rcs (GPLv2) before it was

249bd79708dSJonathan T. Looney20161008:
250bd79708dSJonathan T. Looney	Use of the cc_cdg, cc_chd, cc_hd, or cc_vegas congestion control
251bd79708dSJonathan T. Looney	modules now requires that the kernel configuration contain the
252bd79708dSJonathan T. Looney	TCP_HHOOK option. (This option is included in the GENERIC kernel.)
253bd79708dSJonathan T. Looney
2549ce3c6b0SEd Maste20161003:
2559ce3c6b0SEd Maste	The WITHOUT_ELFCOPY_AS_OBJCOPY src.conf(5) knob has been retired.
2569ce3c6b0SEd Maste	ELF Tool Chain's elfcopy is always installed as /usr/bin/objcopy.
2579ce3c6b0SEd Maste
258bba95d2dSMarcel Moolenaar20160924:
259bba95d2dSMarcel Moolenaar	Relocatable object files with the extension of .So have been renamed
260bba95d2dSMarcel Moolenaar	to use an extension of .pico instead.  The purpose of this change is
261bba95d2dSMarcel Moolenaar	to avoid a name clash with shared libraries on case-insensitive file
262bba95d2dSMarcel Moolenaar	systems.  On those file systems, foo.So is the same file as foo.so.
263bba95d2dSMarcel Moolenaar
2645b71d899SBaptiste Daroussin20160918:
265f902d06cSBaptiste Daroussin	GNU rcs has been turned off by default.  It can (temporarily) be built
2660adf2bc8SBaptiste Daroussin	again by adding WITH_RCS knob in src.conf.
267452e1889SBaptiste Daroussin	Otherwise, GNU rcs is available from packages:
268452e1889SBaptiste Daroussin	- rcs: Latest GPLv3 GNU rcs version.

27406b93667SConrad Meyer20160908:
27506b93667SConrad Meyer	The queue(3) debugging macro, QUEUE_MACRO_DEBUG, has been split into
27606b93667SConrad Meyer	two separate components, QUEUE_MACRO_DEBUG_TRACE and

2811c828193SNavdeep Parhar	r304787 changed some ioctl interfaces between the iSCSI userspace
2821c828193SNavdeep Parhar	programs and the kernel.  ctladm, ctld, iscsictl, and iscsid must be
2831c828193SNavdeep Parhar	rebuilt to work with new kernels.  __FreeBSD_version has been bumped
2841c828193SNavdeep Parhar	to 1200005.

2863e7e2333SGeorge V. Neville-Neil20160818:
28728da7a25SBryan Drewery	The UDP receive code has been updated to only treat incoming UDP
28828da7a25SBryan Drewery	packets that were addressed to an L2 broadcast address as L3
28928da7a25SBryan Drewery	broadcast packets.  It is not expected that this will affect any
29028da7a25SBryan Drewery	standards-conforming UDP application.  The new behaviour can be
29128da7a25SBryan Drewery	disabled by setting the sysctl net.inet.udp.require_l2_bcast to
29228da7a25SBryan Drewery	0.
29328da7a25SBryan Drewery
29428da7a25SBryan Drewery20160818:
2953e7e2333SGeorge V. Neville-Neil	Remove the openbsd_poll system call.
2963e7e2333SGeorge V. Neville-Neil	__FreeBSD_version has been bumped because of this.

298ddc2f805SBrooks Davis20160622:
299678243ffSBrooks Davis	The libc stub for the pipe(2) system call has been replaced with
300f0db8553SBrooks Davis	a wrapper that calls the pipe2(2) system call and the pipe(2)
301f0db8553SBrooks Davis	system call is now only implemented by the kernels that include
302f0db8553SBrooks Davis	"options COMPAT_FREEBSD10" in their config file (this is the
303f0db8553SBrooks Davis	default).  Users should ensure that this option is enabled in
304f0db8553SBrooks Davis	their kernel or upgrade userspace to r302092 before upgrading their
305f0db8553SBrooks Davis	kernel.

307583febf4SAlan Somers20160527:
308583febf4SAlan Somers	CAM will now strip leading spaces from SCSI disks' serial numbers.
309fb9b2ab1SBryan Drewery	This will affect users who create UFS filesystems on SCSI disks using
310583febf4SAlan Somers	those disk's diskid device nodes.  For example, if /etc/fstab
311583febf4SAlan Somers	previously contained a line like
312583febf4SAlan Somers	"/dev/diskid/DISK-%20%20%20%20%20%20%20ABCDEFG0123456", you should
313583febf4SAlan Somers	change it to "/dev/diskid/DISK-ABCDEFG0123456".  Users of geom
314ab5d7fb1SAlan Somers	transforms like gmirror may also be affected.  ZFS users should
315583febf4SAlan Somers	generally be fine.

3171b82e02fSAlan Somers20160523:
3181b82e02fSAlan Somers	The bitstring(3) API has been updated with new functionality and
3191b82e02fSAlan Somers	improved performance.  But it is binary-incompatible with the old API.
3201b82e02fSAlan Somers	Objects built with the new headers may not be linked against objects

32394098ab7SAndrew Turner20160520:
32494098ab7SAndrew Turner	The brk and sbrk functions have been removed from libc on arm64.
32594098ab7SAndrew Turner	Binutils from ports has been updated to not link to these

3292c0e9e2aSWarner Losh20160517:
3302c0e9e2aSWarner Losh	The armv6 port now defaults to hard float ABI. Limited support
3312c0e9e2aSWarner Losh	for running both hardfloat and soft float on the same system
3322c0e9e2aSWarner Losh	is available using the libraries installed with -DWITH_LIBSOFT.
3332c0e9e2aSWarner Losh	This has only been tested as an upgrade path for installworld
3342c0e9e2aSWarner Losh	and packages may fail or need manual intervention to run. New
3352c0e9e2aSWarner Losh	packages will be needed.

3415f0263c1SJohn Baldwin20160510:
3425f0263c1SJohn Baldwin	Kernel modules compiled outside of a kernel build now default to
3435f0263c1SJohn Baldwin	installing to /boot/modules instead of /boot/kernel.  Many kernel
3445f0263c1SJohn Baldwin	modules built this way (such as those in ports) already overrode
3455f0263c1SJohn Baldwin	KMODDIR explicitly to install into /boot/modules.  However,
3465f0263c1SJohn Baldwin	manually building and installing a module from /sys/modules will
3475f0263c1SJohn Baldwin	now install to /boot/modules instead of /boot/kernel.

34913694b35SWarner Losh20160414:
350a1743365SWarner Losh	The CAM I/O scheduler has been committed to the kernel. There should be
351a1743365SWarner Losh	no user visible impact. This does enable NCQ Trim on ada SSDs. While the
352a1743365SWarner Losh	list of known rogues that claim support for this but actually corrupt
353a1743365SWarner Losh	data is believed to be complete, be on the lookout for data
354a1743365SWarner Losh	corruption. The known rogue list is believed to be complete:
355a1743365SWarner Losh
356a1743365SWarner Losh		o Crucial MX100, M550 drives with MU01 firmware.
357a1743365SWarner Losh		o Micron M510 and M550 drives with MU01 firmware.
358a1743365SWarner Losh		o Micron M500 prior to MU07 firmware
359a1743365SWarner Losh		o Samsung 830, 840, and 850 all firmwares
360a1743365SWarner Losh		o FCCT M500 all firmwares
361a1743365SWarner Losh
362a1743365SWarner Losh	Crucial has firmware http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/support-ssd-firmware
363a1743365SWarner Losh	with working NCQ TRIM. For Micron branded drives, see your sales rep for
364a1743365SWarner Losh	updated firmware. Black listed drives will work correctly because these
365a1743365SWarner Losh	drives work correctly so long as no NCQ TRIMs are sent to them. Given
366a1743365SWarner Losh	this list is the same as found in Linux, it's believed there are no
367a1743365SWarner Losh	other rogues in the market place. All other models from the above
368a1743365SWarner Losh	vendors work.
369a1743365SWarner Losh
370a1743365SWarner Losh	To be safe, if you are at all concerned, you can quirk each of your
371a1743365SWarner Losh	drives to prevent NCQ from being sent by setting:
372a1743365SWarner Losh		kern.cam.ada.X.quirks="0x2"
373a1743365SWarner Losh	in loader.conf. If the drive requires the 4k sector quirk, set the

376497e8091SBryan Drewery20160330:
377497e8091SBryan Drewery	The FAST_DEPEND build option has been removed and its functionality is
378497e8091SBryan Drewery	now the one true way.  The old mkdep(1) style of 'make depend' has
379497e8091SBryan Drewery	been removed.  See 20160311 for further details.

384da1b038aSJustin Hibbits
385d783b170SBryan Drewery20160311:
386d783b170SBryan Drewery	WITH_FAST_DEPEND is now enabled by default for in-tree and out-of-tree
387d783b170SBryan Drewery	builds.  It no longer runs mkdep(1) during 'make depend', and the
388d783b170SBryan Drewery	'make depend' stage can safely be skipped now as it is auto ran
389d783b170SBryan Drewery	when building 'make all' and will generate all SRCS and DPSRCS before
390d783b170SBryan Drewery	building anything else.  Dependencies are gathered at compile time with
391d783b170SBryan Drewery	-MF flags kept in separate .depend files per object file.  Users should
392d783b170SBryan Drewery	run 'make cleandepend' once if using -DNO_CLEAN to clean out older
393d783b170SBryan Drewery	stale .depend files.

395c834228bSDimitry Andric20160306:
396c834228bSDimitry Andric	On amd64, clang 3.8.0 can now insert sections of type AMD64_UNWIND into
397c834228bSDimitry Andric	kernel modules.  Therefore, if you load any kernel modules at boot time,
398c834228bSDimitry Andric	please install the boot loaders after you install the kernel, but before
399c834228bSDimitry Andric	rebooting, e.g.:
400c834228bSDimitry Andric
401c834228bSDimitry Andric	make buildworld

4148b66d3d3SJohn Baldwin20160301:
4158b66d3d3SJohn Baldwin	The AIO subsystem is now a standard part of the kernel.  The
4168b66d3d3SJohn Baldwin	VFS_AIO kernel option and aio.ko kernel module have been removed.
4178b66d3d3SJohn Baldwin	Due to stability concerns, asynchronous I/O requests are only
4188b66d3d3SJohn Baldwin	permitted on sockets and raw disks by default.  To enable
4198b66d3d3SJohn Baldwin	asynchronous I/O requests on all file types, set the
4208b66d3d3SJohn Baldwin	vfs.aio.enable_unsafe sysctl to a non-zero value.
4218b66d3d3SJohn Baldwin
422de463b29SEd Maste20160226:
423ca8b902aSEd Maste	The ELF object manipulation tool objcopy is now provided by the
424ca8b902aSEd Maste	ELF Tool Chain project rather than by GNU binutils. It should be a
425ca8b902aSEd Maste	drop-in replacement, with the addition of arm64 support. The
426ca8b902aSEd Maste	(temporary) src.conf knob WITHOUT_ELFCOPY_AS_OBJCOPY knob may be set
427ca8b902aSEd Maste	to obtain the GNU version if necessary.
428ca8b902aSEd Maste
429d4b9233aSAlan Somers20160129:
430d4b9233aSAlan Somers	Building ZFS pools on top of zvols is prohibited by default.  That
431d4b9233aSAlan Somers	feature has never worked safely; it's always been prone to deadlocks.
432d4b9233aSAlan Somers	Using a zvol as the backing store for a VM guest's virtual disk will
433d4b9233aSAlan Somers	still work, even if the guest is using ZFS.  Legacy behavior can be

4454d6ab32fSBaptiste Daroussin20151216:
4464d6ab32fSBaptiste Daroussin	The tftp loader (pxeboot) now uses the option root-path directive. As a
4474d6ab32fSBaptiste Daroussin	consequence it no longer looks for a pxeboot.4th file on the tftp
4484d6ab32fSBaptiste Daroussin	server. Instead it uses the regular /boot infrastructure as with the
4494d6ab32fSBaptiste Daroussin	other loaders.
4504d6ab32fSBaptiste Daroussin
451ca7e5285SWarner Losh20151211:
452ca7e5285SWarner Losh	The code to start recording plug and play data into the modules has
453ca7e5285SWarner Losh	been committed. While the old tools will properly build a new kernel,
454ca7e5285SWarner Losh	a number of warnings about "unknown metadata record 4" will be produced
455ca7e5285SWarner Losh	for an older kldxref. To avoid such warnings, make sure to rebuild
456ca7e5285SWarner Losh	the kernel toolchain (or world). Make sure that you have r292078 or
457ca7e5285SWarner Losh	later when trying to build 292077 or later before rebuilding.
458ca7e5285SWarner Losh
459015dfda6SEd Maste20151207:
460015dfda6SEd Maste	Debug data files are now built by default with 'make buildworld' and
461015dfda6SEd Maste	installed with 'make installworld'. This facilitates debugging but
462015dfda6SEd Maste	requires more disk space both during the build and for the installed
463015dfda6SEd Maste	world. Debug files may be disabled by setting WITHOUT_DEBUG_FILES=yes
464015dfda6SEd Maste	in src.conf(5).

46633ba1088SRick Macklem20151130:
46733ba1088SRick Macklem	r291527 changed the internal interface between the nfsd.ko and
46833ba1088SRick Macklem	nfscommon.ko modules. As such, they must both be upgraded to-gether.
46933ba1088SRick Macklem	__FreeBSD_version has been bumped because of this.

471af1d74f0SBaptiste Daroussin20151108:
472af1d74f0SBaptiste Daroussin	Add support for unicode collation strings leads to a change of
473af1d74f0SBaptiste Daroussin	order of files listed by ls(1) for example. To get back to the old
474af1d74f0SBaptiste Daroussin	behaviour, set LC_COLLATE environment variable to "C".

489ebda5173SAlexander Motin	Qlogic 24xx/25xx firmware images were updated from 5.5.0 to 7.3.0.
490ebda5173SAlexander Motin	Kernel modules isp_2400_multi and isp_2500_multi were removed and
491ebda5173SAlexander Motin	should be replaced with isp_2400 and isp_2500 modules respectively.
492ebda5173SAlexander Motin
49356585ab5SBryan Drewery20151017:
49456585ab5SBryan Drewery	The build previously allowed using 'make -n' to not recurse into
49556585ab5SBryan Drewery	sub-directories while showing what commands would be executed, and
49656585ab5SBryan Drewery	'make -n -n' to recursively show commands.  Now 'make -n' will recurse
49756585ab5SBryan Drewery	and 'make -N' will not.
49856585ab5SBryan Drewery
499ff446b05SPeter Wemm20151012:
500ff446b05SPeter Wemm	If you specify SENDMAIL_MC or SENDMAIL_CF in make.conf, mergemaster
501ff446b05SPeter Wemm	and etcupdate will now use this file. A custom sendmail.cf is now
502ff446b05SPeter Wemm	updated via this mechanism rather than via installworld.  If you had
503ff446b05SPeter Wemm	excluded sendmail.cf in mergemaster.rc or etcupdate.conf, you may
504ff446b05SPeter Wemm	want to remove the exclusion or change it to "always install".
505ff446b05SPeter Wemm	/etc/mail/sendmail.cf is now managed the same way regardless of
506ff446b05SPeter Wemm	whether SENDMAIL_MC/SENDMAIL_CF is used.  If you are not using
507ff446b05SPeter Wemm	SENDMAIL_MC/SENDMAIL_CF there should be no change in behavior.
508ff446b05SPeter Wemm
5094a3760baSAlexander Motin20151011:
5104a3760baSAlexander Motin	Compatibility shims for legacy ATA device names have been removed.

5205882166bSEd Maste20150924:
52105117b57SEd Maste	Kernel debug files have been moved to /usr/lib/debug/boot/kernel/,
52205117b57SEd Maste	and renamed from .symbols to .debug. This reduces the size requirements
52305117b57SEd Maste	on the boot partition or file system and provides consistency with
52405117b57SEd Maste	userland debug files.
52505117b57SEd Maste
52605117b57SEd Maste	When using the supported kernel installation method the

53364b3b4d6SKristof Provost20150827:
5348ed69220SGleb Smirnoff	The wireless drivers had undergone changes that remove the 'parent
5358ed69220SGleb Smirnoff	interface' from the ifconfig -l output. The rc.d network scripts
5368ed69220SGleb Smirnoff	used to check presence of a parent interface in the list, so old
5378ed69220SGleb Smirnoff	scripts would fail to start wireless networking. Thus, etcupdate(3)
5388ed69220SGleb Smirnoff	or mergemaster(8) run is required after kernel update, to update your

557646041a8SMark Murray
558646041a8SMark Murray	The random(4) kernel option RANDOM_DUMMY has been retired due to

566e7dbaf58SIan Lepore20150810:
567e7dbaf58SIan Lepore	The polarity of Pulse Per Second (PPS) capture events with the
568e7dbaf58SIan Lepore	uart(4) driver has been corrected.  Prior to this change the PPS
569e7dbaf58SIan Lepore	"assert" event corresponded to the trailing edge of a positive PPS
570e7dbaf58SIan Lepore	pulse and the "clear" event was the leading edge of the next pulse.
571e7dbaf58SIan Lepore
572e7dbaf58SIan Lepore	As the width of a PPS pulse in a typical GPS receiver is on the
573e7dbaf58SIan Lepore	order of 1 millisecond, most users will not notice any significant
574e7dbaf58SIan Lepore	difference with this change.
575e7dbaf58SIan Lepore
576e7dbaf58SIan Lepore	Anyone who has compensated for the historical polarity reversal by
577e7dbaf58SIan Lepore	configuring a negative offset equal to the pulse width will need to
578e7dbaf58SIan Lepore	remove that workaround.

58034c7eb57SKoop Mast20150809:

5981635369eSSteven Hartland20150728:
59968d5f492SSteven Hartland	As ZFS requires more kernel stack pages than is the default on some
6001635369eSSteven Hartland	architectures e.g. i386, it now warns if KSTACK_PAGES is less than
6011635369eSSteven Hartland	ZFS_MIN_KSTACK_PAGES (which is 4 at the time of writing).
6021635369eSSteven Hartland
6031635369eSSteven Hartland	Please consider using 'options KSTACK_PAGES=X' where X is greater
6041635369eSSteven Hartland	than or equal to ZFS_MIN_KSTACK_PAGES i.e. 4 in such configurations.
6051635369eSSteven Hartland
606ab1f4a42SGregory Neil Shapiro20150706:
607ab1f4a42SGregory Neil Shapiro	sendmail has been updated to 8.15.2.  Starting with FreeBSD 11.0
608ab1f4a42SGregory Neil Shapiro	and sendmail 8.15, sendmail uses uncompressed IPv6 addresses by
609ab1f4a42SGregory Neil Shapiro	default, i.e., they will not contain "::".  For example, instead
610ab1f4a42SGregory Neil Shapiro	of ::1, it will be 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1.  This permits a zero subnet
611ab1f4a42SGregory Neil Shapiro	to have a more specific match, such as different map entries for
612ab1f4a42SGregory Neil Shapiro	IPv6:0:0 vs IPv6:0.  This change requires that configuration
613ab1f4a42SGregory Neil Shapiro	data (including maps, files, classes, custom ruleset, etc.) must
614ab1f4a42SGregory Neil Shapiro	use the same format, so make certain such configuration data is
615ab1f4a42SGregory Neil Shapiro	upgrading.  As a very simple check search for patterns like
616ab1f4a42SGregory Neil Shapiro	'IPv6:[0-9a-fA-F:]*::' and 'IPv6::'.  To return to the old
617ab1f4a42SGregory Neil Shapiro	behavior, set the m4 option confUSE_COMPRESSED_IPV6_ADDRESSES or
618ab1f4a42SGregory Neil Shapiro	the cf option UseCompressedIPv6Addresses.

620d1b06863SMark Murray20150630:
621d1b06863SMark Murray	The default kernel entropy-processing algorithm is now
622d1b06863SMark Murray	Fortuna, replacing Yarrow.
6236f78e390SSimon J. Gerraty
624d1b06863SMark Murray	Assuming you have 'device random' in your kernel config
625d1b06863SMark Murray	file, the configurations allow a kernel option to override
626d1b06863SMark Murray	this default. You may choose *ONE* of:
6276f78e390SSimon J. Gerraty
628d1b06863SMark Murray	options	RANDOM_YARROW	# Legacy /dev/random algorithm.
629d1b06863SMark Murray	options	RANDOM_DUMMY	# Blocking-only driver.
6306f78e390SSimon J. Gerraty
631d1b06863SMark Murray	If you have neither, you get Fortuna.  For most people,
632d1b06863SMark Murray	read no further, Fortuna will give a /dev/random that works
633d1b06863SMark Murray	like it always used to, and the difference will be irrelevant.
6346f78e390SSimon J. Gerraty
635d1b06863SMark Murray	If you remove 'device random', you get *NO* kernel-processed
63602dcb6e0SEitan Adler	entropy at all. This may be acceptable to folks building
637d1b06863SMark Murray	embedded systems, but has complications. Carry on reading,
638d1b06863SMark Murray	and it is assumed you know what you need.
639d1b06863SMark Murray
640d1b06863SMark Murray	*PLEASE* read random(4) and random(9) if you are in the
64102dcb6e0SEitan Adler	habit of tweaking kernel configs, and/or if you are a member
642d1b06863SMark Murray	of the embedded community, wanting specific and not-usual
643d1b06863SMark Murray	behaviour from your security subsystems.
644d1b06863SMark Murray
645d1b06863SMark Murray	NOTE!! If you use RANDOM_DUMMY and/or have no 'device
646d1b06863SMark Murray	random', you will NOT have a functioning /dev/random, and
647d1b06863SMark Murray	many cryptographic features will not work, including SSH.
648d1b06863SMark Murray	You may also find strange behaviour from the random(3) set
649d1b06863SMark Murray	of library functions, in particular sranddev(3), srandomdev(3)
650d1b06863SMark Murray	and arc4random(3). The reason for this is that the KERN_ARND
651d1b06863SMark Murray	sysctl only returns entropy if it thinks it has some to
652d1b06863SMark Murray	share, and with RANDOM_DUMMY or no 'device random' this
653d1b06863SMark Murray	will never happen.

67722596424SGregory Neil Shapiro	The import of openssl to address the FreeBSD-SA-15:10.openssl
67822596424SGregory Neil Shapiro	security advisory includes a change which rejects handshakes

68222596424SGregory Neil Shapiro	this interoperability, sendmail can be configured to use a

68422596424SGregory Neil Shapiro
68522596424SGregory Neil Shapiro	1. Edit /etc/mail/`hostname`.mc

804143c11b4SDimitry Andric	Clang, llvm and lldb have been upgraded to 3.5.0 release.
805143c11b4SDimitry Andric
8060ac2c3d1SDimitry Andric	As of this release, a prerequisite for building clang, llvm and lldb is
8070ac2c3d1SDimitry Andric	a C++11 capable compiler and C++11 standard library.  This means that to
808143c11b4SDimitry Andric	be able to successfully build the cross-tools stage of buildworld, with
809143c11b4SDimitry Andric	clang as the bootstrap compiler, your system compiler or cross compiler
810143c11b4SDimitry Andric	should either be clang 3.3 or later, or gcc 4.8 or later, and your
811143c11b4SDimitry Andric	system C++ library should be libc++, or libdstdc++ from gcc 4.8 or
812143c11b4SDimitry Andric	later.
813143c11b4SDimitry Andric
8140ac2c3d1SDimitry Andric	On any standard FreeBSD 10.x or 11.x installation, where clang and
8150ac2c3d1SDimitry Andric	libc++ are on by default (that is, on x86 or arm), this should work out
8160ac2c3d1SDimitry Andric	of the box.
817143c11b4SDimitry Andric
818143c11b4SDimitry Andric	On 9.x installations where clang is enabled by default, e.g. on x86 and
819143c11b4SDimitry Andric	powerpc, libc++ will not be enabled by default, so libc++ should be
820143c11b4SDimitry Andric	built (with clang) and installed first.  If both clang and libc++ are
821143c11b4SDimitry Andric	missing, build clang first, then use it to build libc++.
822143c11b4SDimitry Andric
823143c11b4SDimitry Andric	On 8.x and earlier installations, upgrade to 9.x first, and then follow
824143c11b4SDimitry Andric	the instructions for 9.x above.
825143c11b4SDimitry Andric
8260ac2c3d1SDimitry Andric	Sparc64 and mips users are unaffected, as they still use gcc 4.2.1 by
8270ac2c3d1SDimitry Andric	default, and do not build clang.
8280ac2c3d1SDimitry Andric
8290ac2c3d1SDimitry Andric	Many embedded systems are resource constrained, and will not be able to
8300ac2c3d1SDimitry Andric	build clang in a reasonable time, or in some cases at all.  In those
8310ac2c3d1SDimitry Andric	cases, cross building bootable systems on amd64 is a workaround.
8320ac2c3d1SDimitry Andric
833143c11b4SDimitry Andric	This new version of clang introduces a number of new warnings, of which
834143c11b4SDimitry Andric	the following are most likely to appear:
835143c11b4SDimitry Andric
836143c11b4SDimitry Andric	-Wabsolute-value
837143c11b4SDimitry Andric
838143c11b4SDimitry Andric	This warns in two cases, for both C and C++:
839143c11b4SDimitry Andric	* When the code is trying to take the absolute value of an unsigned
840143c11b4SDimitry Andric	  quantity, which is effectively a no-op, and almost never what was
841143c11b4SDimitry Andric	  intended.  The code should be fixed, if at all possible.  If you are
842143c11b4SDimitry Andric	  sure that the unsigned quantity can be safely cast to signed, without
843143c11b4SDimitry Andric	  loss of information or undefined behavior, you can add an explicit
844143c11b4SDimitry Andric	  cast, or disable the warning.
845143c11b4SDimitry Andric
846143c11b4SDimitry Andric	* When the code is trying to take an absolute value, but the called
847143c11b4SDimitry Andric	  abs() variant is for the wrong type, which can lead to truncation.
848143c11b4SDimitry Andric	  If you want to disable the warning instead of fixing the code, please
849143c11b4SDimitry Andric	  make sure that truncation will not occur, or it might lead to unwanted
850143c11b4SDimitry Andric	  side-effects.
851143c11b4SDimitry Andric
852143c11b4SDimitry Andric	-Wtautological-undefined-compare and
853143c11b4SDimitry Andric	-Wundefined-bool-conversion
854143c11b4SDimitry Andric
855143c11b4SDimitry Andric	These warn when C++ code is trying to compare 'this' against NULL, while
856143c11b4SDimitry Andric	'this' should never be NULL in well-defined C++ code.  However, there is
857143c11b4SDimitry Andric	some legacy (pre C++11) code out there, which actively abuses this
858143c11b4SDimitry Andric	feature, which was less strictly defined in previous C++ versions.
859143c11b4SDimitry Andric
860143c11b4SDimitry Andric	Squid and openjdk do this, for example.  The warning can be turned off
861143c11b4SDimitry Andric	for C++98 and earlier, but compiling the code in C++11 mode might result
862143c11b4SDimitry Andric	in unexpected behavior; for example, the parts of the program that are
863143c11b4SDimitry Andric	unreachable could be optimized away.
864143c11b4SDimitry Andric
8650b327b63SRick Macklem20141222:
8660b327b63SRick Macklem	The old NFS client and server (kernel options NFSCLIENT, NFSSERVER)
8670b327b63SRick Macklem	kernel sources have been removed. The .h files remain, since some
8680b327b63SRick Macklem	utilities include them. This will need to be fixed later.
8690b327b63SRick Macklem	If "mount -t oldnfs ..." is attempted, it will fail.
8700b327b63SRick Macklem	If the "-o" option on mountd(8), nfsd(8) or nfsstat(1) is used,
8710b327b63SRick Macklem	the utilities will report errors.

8735f25ee9cSBrooks Davis20141121:
8745f25ee9cSBrooks Davis	The handling of LOCAL_LIB_DIRS has been altered to skip addition of
8755f25ee9cSBrooks Davis	directories to top level SUBDIR variable when their parent
8765f25ee9cSBrooks Davis	directory is included in LOCAL_DIRS.  Users with build systems with
8775f25ee9cSBrooks Davis	such hierarchies and without SUBDIR entries in the parent
8785f25ee9cSBrooks Davis	directory Makefiles should add them or add the directories to
8795f25ee9cSBrooks Davis	LOCAL_DIRS.

881603eaf79SAlexander V. Chernikov20141109:
88274342541SChristian Brueffer	faith(4) and faithd(8) have been removed from the base system. Faith

8852d6f6d63SJean-Sébastien Pédron20141104:
8862d6f6d63SJean-Sébastien Pédron	vt(4), the new console driver, is enabled by default. It brings
8872d6f6d63SJean-Sébastien Pédron	support for Unicode and double-width characters, as well as
8882d6f6d63SJean-Sébastien Pédron	support for UEFI and integration with the KMS kernel video
8892d6f6d63SJean-Sébastien Pédron	drivers.
8902d6f6d63SJean-Sébastien Pédron
8912d6f6d63SJean-Sébastien Pédron	You may need to update your console settings in /etc/rc.conf,
8922d6f6d63SJean-Sébastien Pédron	most probably the keymap. During boot, /etc/rc.d/syscons will
8932d6f6d63SJean-Sébastien Pédron	indicate what you need to do.
8942d6f6d63SJean-Sébastien Pédron
8952d6f6d63SJean-Sébastien Pédron	vt(4) still has issues and lacks some features compared to
8962d6f6d63SJean-Sébastien Pédron	syscons(4). See the wiki for up-to-date information:
8972d6f6d63SJean-Sébastien Pédron	  https://wiki.freebsd.org/Newcons
8982d6f6d63SJean-Sébastien Pédron
8992d6f6d63SJean-Sébastien Pédron	If you want to keep using syscons(4), you can do so by adding

908ddd96d23SEd Maste20141009:
909ddd96d23SEd Maste	gperf has been removed from the base system for architectures
910ddd96d23SEd Maste	that use clang. Ports that require gperf will obtain it from the
911ddd96d23SEd Maste	devel/gperf port.
912ddd96d23SEd Maste

917243d6a50SSean Bruno20140922:
918243d6a50SSean Bruno	At svn r271982, The default linux compat kernel ABI has been adjusted
919243d6a50SSean Bruno	to 2.6.18 in support of the linux-c6 compat ports infrastructure
920243d6a50SSean Bruno	update.  If you wish to continue using the linux-f10 compat ports,
921243d6a50SSean Bruno	add compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.16 to your local sysctl.conf.  Users are
922243d6a50SSean Bruno	encouraged to update their linux-compat packages to linux-c6 during
923243d6a50SSean Bruno	their next update cycle.
924243d6a50SSean Bruno
925232490c6SNathan Whitehorn20140729:
926232490c6SNathan Whitehorn	The ofwfb driver, used to provide a graphics console on PowerPC when
92774342541SChristian Brueffer	using vt(4), no longer allows mmap() of all physical memory. This
928232490c6SNathan Whitehorn	will prevent Xorg on PowerPC with some ATI graphics cards from
929232490c6SNathan Whitehorn	initializing properly unless x11-servers/xorg-server is updated to
930232490c6SNathan Whitehorn	1.12.4_8 or newer.
931232490c6SNathan Whitehorn
9320aafd404SWarner Losh20140723:
9330aafd404SWarner Losh	The xdev targets have been converted to using TARGET and
9340aafd404SWarner Losh	TARGET_ARCH instead of XDEV and XDEV_ARCH.
9350aafd404SWarner Losh
9360d0485e2SDag-Erling Smørgrav20140719:
9370d0485e2SDag-Erling Smørgrav	The default unbound configuration has been modified to address
9380d0485e2SDag-Erling Smørgrav	issues with reverse lookups on networks that use private
9390d0485e2SDag-Erling Smørgrav	address ranges.  If you use the local_unbound service, run
9400d0485e2SDag-Erling Smørgrav	"service local_unbound setup" as root to regenerate your
9410d0485e2SDag-Erling Smørgrav	configuration, then "service local_unbound reload" to load the

944f4717209SBaptiste Daroussin20140709:
945f4717209SBaptiste Daroussin	The GNU texinfo and GNU info pages are not built and installed
946f4717209SBaptiste Daroussin	anymore, WITH_INFO knob has been added to allow to built and install
947f4717209SBaptiste Daroussin	them again.

949f4717209SBaptiste Daroussin
9508a833bdaSBaptiste Daroussin20140708:
9518a833bdaSBaptiste Daroussin	The GNU readline library is now an INTERNALLIB - that is, it is
9528a833bdaSBaptiste Daroussin	statically linked into consumers (GDB and variants) in the base
9538a833bdaSBaptiste Daroussin	system, and the shared library is no longer installed.  The
9548a833bdaSBaptiste Daroussin	devel/readline port is available for third party software that
9558a833bdaSBaptiste Daroussin	requires readline.
9568a833bdaSBaptiste Daroussin
95750f73640SMarcel Moolenaar20140702:
95850f73640SMarcel Moolenaar	The Itanium architecture (ia64) has been removed from the list of
95950f73640SMarcel Moolenaar	known architectures. This is the first step in the removal of the
96050f73640SMarcel Moolenaar	architecture.
96150f73640SMarcel Moolenaar
96218aa7fccSRick Macklem20140701:
96318aa7fccSRick Macklem	Commit r268115 has added NFSv4.1 server support, merged from
96418aa7fccSRick Macklem	projects/nfsv4.1-server.  Since this includes changes to the
96518aa7fccSRick Macklem	internal interfaces between the NFS related modules, a full
96618aa7fccSRick Macklem	build of the kernel and modules will be necessary.
96718aa7fccSRick Macklem	__FreeBSD_version has been bumped.
96818aa7fccSRick Macklem
969824a9093SEd Maste20140629:
970824a9093SEd Maste	The WITHOUT_VT_SUPPORT kernel config knob has been renamed
971824a9093SEd Maste	WITHOUT_VT.  (The other _SUPPORT knobs have a consistent meaning
972824a9093SEd Maste	which differs from the behaviour controlled by this knob.)
973824a9093SEd Maste
97438b72f8cSAlexander Motin20140619:
97538b72f8cSAlexander Motin	Maximal length of the serial number in CTL was increased from 16 to
97638b72f8cSAlexander Motin	64 chars, that breaks ABI.  All CTL-related tools, such as ctladm
97738b72f8cSAlexander Motin	and ctld, need to be rebuilt to work with a new kernel.
97838b72f8cSAlexander Motin
979727a7ce8SJulio Merino20140606:
980727a7ce8SJulio Merino	The libatf-c and libatf-c++ major versions were downgraded to 0 and
981727a7ce8SJulio Merino	1 respectively to match the upstream numbers.  They were out of
982727a7ce8SJulio Merino	sync because, when they were originally added to FreeBSD, the
983727a7ce8SJulio Merino	upstream versions were not respected.  These libraries are private
984727a7ce8SJulio Merino	and not yet built by default, so renumbering them should be a
985727a7ce8SJulio Merino	non-issue.  However, unclean source trees will yield broken test
986727a7ce8SJulio Merino	programs once the operator executes "make delete-old-libs" after a
987727a7ce8SJulio Merino	"make installworld".
988727a7ce8SJulio Merino
9898c7ec47aSJulio Merino	Additionally, the atf-sh binary was made private by moving it into
9908c7ec47aSJulio Merino	/usr/libexec/.  Already-built shell test programs will keep the
9918c7ec47aSJulio Merino	path to the old binary so they will break after "make delete-old"
9928c7ec47aSJulio Merino	is run.
9938c7ec47aSJulio Merino
994727a7ce8SJulio Merino	If you are using WITH_TESTS=yes (not the default), wipe the object
995727a7ce8SJulio Merino	tree and rebuild from scratch to prevent spurious test failures.
9968c7ec47aSJulio Merino	This is only needed once: the misnumbered libraries and misplaced
9978c7ec47aSJulio Merino	binaries have been added to OptionalObsoleteFiles.inc so they will
9988c7ec47aSJulio Merino	be removed during a clean upgrade.
999727a7ce8SJulio Merino
100085d60e68SDimitry Andric20140512:
100185d60e68SDimitry Andric	Clang and llvm have been upgraded to 3.4.1 release.
100285d60e68SDimitry Andric
1003fa114234SWarner Losh20140508:
1004fa114234SWarner Losh	We bogusly installed src.opts.mk in /usr/share/mk. This file should
1005fa114234SWarner Losh	be removed to avoid issues in the future (and has been added to
1006fa114234SWarner Losh	ObsoleteFiles.inc).
1007fa114234SWarner Losh
1008a46954e2SWarner Losh20140505:
1009a46954e2SWarner Losh	/etc/src.conf now affects only builds of the FreeBSD src tree. In the
1010a46954e2SWarner Losh	past, it affected all builds that used the bsd.*.mk files. The old
1011a46954e2SWarner Losh	behavior was a bug, but people may have relied upon it. To get this
1012a46954e2SWarner Losh	behavior back, you can .include /etc/src.conf from /etc/make.conf
1013a46954e2SWarner Losh	(which is still global and isn't changed). This also changes the
1014a46954e2SWarner Losh	behavior of incremental builds inside the tree of individual
101559a24370SWarner Losh	directories. Set MAKESYSPATH to ".../share/mk" to do that.
1016a46954e2SWarner Losh	Although this has survived make universe and some upgrade scenarios,
101755b76981SWarner Losh	other upgrade scenarios may have broken. At least one form of
101855b76981SWarner Losh	temporary breakage was fixed with MAKESYSPATH settings for buildworld
101959a24370SWarner Losh	as well... In cases where MAKESYSPATH isn't working with this
102059a24370SWarner Losh	setting, you'll need to set it to the full path to your tree.
1021a46954e2SWarner Losh
1022bd871f14SWarner Losh	One side effect of all this cleaning up is that bsd.compiler.mk
1023bd871f14SWarner Losh	is no longer implicitly included by bsd.own.mk. If you wish to
1024bd871f14SWarner Losh	use COMPILER_TYPE, you must now explicitly include bsd.compiler.mk
1025bd871f14SWarner Losh	as well.
1026bd871f14SWarner Losh
1027461dbce2SEitan Adler20140430:
1028461dbce2SEitan Adler	The lindev device has been removed since /dev/full has been made a

1030461dbce2SEitan Adler
1031e9aba509SEnji Cooper20140424:
1032e9aba509SEnji Cooper	The knob WITHOUT_VI was added to the base system, which controls
1033e9aba509SEnji Cooper	building ex(1), vi(1), etc. Older releases of FreeBSD required ex(1)
1034e9aba509SEnji Cooper	in order to reorder files share/termcap and didn't build ex(1) as a
1035e9aba509SEnji Cooper	build tool, so building/installing with WITH_VI is highly advised for
1036e9aba509SEnji Cooper	build hosts for older releases.
1037e9aba509SEnji Cooper
1038e9aba509SEnji Cooper	This issue has been fixed in stable/9 and stable/10 in r277022 and
1039e9aba509SEnji Cooper	r276991, respectively.
1040e9aba509SEnji Cooper
10412bb08298SWarner Losh20140418:
10422bb08298SWarner Losh	The YES_HESIOD knob has been removed. It has been obsolete for
10432bb08298SWarner Losh	a decade. Please move to using WITH_HESIOD instead or your builds
10442bb08298SWarner Losh	will silently lack HESIOD.
10452bb08298SWarner Losh
10464c710b67SMarcel Moolenaar20140405:
10474c710b67SMarcel Moolenaar	The uart(4) driver has been changed with respect to its handling
10484c710b67SMarcel Moolenaar	of the low-level console. Previously the uart(4) driver prevented
10494c710b67SMarcel Moolenaar	any process from changing the baudrate or the CLOCAL and HUPCL
10504c710b67SMarcel Moolenaar	control flags. By removing the restrictions, operators can make
10514c710b67SMarcel Moolenaar	changes to the serial console port without having to reboot.
10524c710b67SMarcel Moolenaar	However, when getty(8) is started on the serial device that is
10534c710b67SMarcel Moolenaar	associated with the low-level console, a misconfigured terminal
10544c710b67SMarcel Moolenaar	line in /etc/ttys will now have a real impact.
10554c710b67SMarcel Moolenaar	Before upgrading the kernel, make sure that /etc/ttys has the
10564c710b67SMarcel Moolenaar	serial console device configured as 3wire without baudrate to
1057086036aaSMarcel Moolenaar	preserve the previous behaviour. E.g:
10584c710b67SMarcel Moolenaar	    ttyu0  "/usr/libexec/getty 3wire"  vt100  on  secure
10594c710b67SMarcel Moolenaar
1060ea9ed3d8SAlexander Motin20140306:
1061ea9ed3d8SAlexander Motin	Support for libwrap (TCP wrappers) in rpcbind was disabled by default
1062ea9ed3d8SAlexander Motin	to improve performance.  To re-enable it, if needed, run rpcbind

1066a9fd2218SWarner Losh	Switched back to the GPL dtc compiler due to updates in the upstream
1067a9fd2218SWarner Losh	dts files not being supported by the BSDL dtc compiler. You will need
1068a9fd2218SWarner Losh	to rebuild your kernel toolchain to pick up the new compiler. Core dumps
1069a9fd2218SWarner Losh	may result while building dtb files during a kernel build if you fail
1070a9fd2218SWarner Losh	to do so. Set WITHOUT_GPL_DTC if you require the BSDL compiler.

10799f23d19aSDimitry Andric20140212:
10809f23d19aSDimitry Andric	An ABI incompatibility crept into the libc++ 3.4 import in r261283.
10819f23d19aSDimitry Andric	This could cause certain C++ applications using shared libraries built
10829f23d19aSDimitry Andric	against the previous version of libc++ to crash.  The incompatibility
10839f23d19aSDimitry Andric	has now been fixed, but any C++ applications or shared libraries built
10849f23d19aSDimitry Andric	between r261283 and r261801 should be recompiled.

10865e4b8b0dSXin LI20140204:
10875e4b8b0dSXin LI	OpenSSH will now ignore errors caused by kernel lacking of Capsicum
10885e4b8b0dSXin LI	capability mode support.  Please note that enabling the feature in
10895e4b8b0dSXin LI	kernel is still highly recommended.

10915e4b8b0dSXin LI20140131:
10925e4b8b0dSXin LI	OpenSSH is now built with sandbox support, and will use sandbox as
10935e4b8b0dSXin LI	the default privilege separation method.  This requires Capsicum

1104d7efee23SJulio Merino	If a Makefile in a tests/ directory was auto-generating a Kyuafile
1105d7efee23SJulio Merino	instead of providing an explicit one, this would prevent such
1106d7efee23SJulio Merino	Makefile from providing its own Kyuafile in the future during
1107d7efee23SJulio Merino	NO_CLEAN builds.  This has been fixed in the Makefiles but manual
1108d7efee23SJulio Merino	intervention is needed to clean an objdir if you use NO_CLEAN:
1109d7efee23SJulio Merino	  # find /usr/obj -name Kyuafile | xargs rm -f

11112773bfa9SBenjamin Kaduk20131213:
11122773bfa9SBenjamin Kaduk	The behavior of gss_pseudo_random() for the krb5 mechanism
11132773bfa9SBenjamin Kaduk	has changed, for applications requesting a longer random string
11142773bfa9SBenjamin Kaduk	than produced by the underlying enctype's pseudo-random() function.
11152773bfa9SBenjamin Kaduk	In particular, the random string produced from a session key of
11162773bfa9SBenjamin Kaduk	enctype aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96 or aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96 will
11172773bfa9SBenjamin Kaduk	be different at the 17th octet and later, after this change.
11182773bfa9SBenjamin Kaduk	The counter used in the PRF+ construction is now encoded as a
11192773bfa9SBenjamin Kaduk	big-endian integer in accordance with RFC 4402.
11202773bfa9SBenjamin Kaduk	__FreeBSD_version is bumped to 1100004.

1123e01d128aSJulio Merino	The WITHOUT_ATF build knob has been removed and its functionality
1124e01d128aSJulio Merino	has been subsumed into the more generic WITHOUT_TESTS.  If you were
1125e01d128aSJulio Merino	using the former to disable the build of the ATF libraries, you
1126e01d128aSJulio Merino	should change your settings to use the latter.

1129b9cd6b0aSBrooks Davis	The default version of mtree is nmtree which is obtained from
1130b9cd6b0aSBrooks Davis	NetBSD.  The output is generally the same, but may vary
1131b9cd6b0aSBrooks Davis	slightly.  If you found you need identical output adding
1132b9cd6b0aSBrooks Davis	"-F freebsd9" to the command line should do the trick.  For the

114984b354cbSHiroki Sato	The rc.d/jail script has been updated to support jail(8)
115084b354cbSHiroki Sato	configuration file.  The "jail_<jname>_*" rc.conf(5) variables
115184b354cbSHiroki Sato	for per-jail configuration are automatically converted to
115284b354cbSHiroki Sato	/var/run/jail.<jname>.conf before the jail(8) utility is invoked.
115384b354cbSHiroki Sato	This is transparently backward compatible.  See below about some
115484b354cbSHiroki Sato	incompatibilities and rc.conf(5) manual page for more details.
115584b354cbSHiroki Sato
115684b354cbSHiroki Sato	These variables are now deprecated in favor of jail(8) configuration
115784b354cbSHiroki Sato	file.  One can use "rc.d/jail config <jname>" command to generate
115884b354cbSHiroki Sato	a jail(8) configuration file in /var/run/jail.<jname>.conf without
115984b354cbSHiroki Sato	running the jail(8) utility.   The default pathname of the
116084b354cbSHiroki Sato	configuration file is /etc/jail.conf and can be specified by
116184b354cbSHiroki Sato	using $jail_conf or $jail_<jname>_conf variables.
116284b354cbSHiroki Sato
116384b354cbSHiroki Sato	Please note that jail_devfs_ruleset accepts an integer at

11682d69252aSDag-Erling Smørgrav	BIND has been removed from the base system.  If all you need
11692d69252aSDag-Erling Smørgrav	is a local resolver, simply enable and start the local_unbound
11702d69252aSDag-Erling Smørgrav	service instead.  Otherwise, several versions of BIND are
11718a65c0b9SCraig Rodrigues	available in the ports tree.   The dns/bind99 port is one example.
11728a65c0b9SCraig Rodrigues
11738a65c0b9SCraig Rodrigues	With this change, nslookup(1) and dig(1) are no longer in the base
1174edc144a1SCraig Rodrigues	system.  Users should instead use host(1) and drill(1) which are
11758a65c0b9SCraig Rodrigues	in the base system.  Alternatively, nslookup and dig can
11768a65c0b9SCraig Rodrigues	be obtained by installing the dns/bind-tools port.

1183bd8277b4SDag-Erling Smørgrav20130911:
1184bd8277b4SDag-Erling Smørgrav	OpenSSH is now built with DNSSEC support, and will by default
1185bd8277b4SDag-Erling Smørgrav	silently trust signed SSHFP records.  This can be controlled with
1186bd8277b4SDag-Erling Smørgrav	the VerifyHostKeyDNS client configuration setting.  DNSSEC support
1187bd8277b4SDag-Erling Smørgrav	can be disabled entirely with the WITHOUT_LDNS option in src.conf.

11962057b58bSPawel Jakub Dawidek	The PROCDESC kernel option is now part of the GENERIC kernel
11972057b58bSPawel Jakub Dawidek	configuration and is required for the rwhod(8) to work.
11982057b58bSPawel Jakub Dawidek	If you are using custom kernel configuration, you should include
11992057b58bSPawel Jakub Dawidek	'options PROCDESC'.

12012057b58bSPawel Jakub Dawidek20130905:
12024877522eSPawel Jakub Dawidek	The API and ABI related to the Capsicum framework was modified
12034877522eSPawel Jakub Dawidek	in backward incompatible way. The userland libraries and programs
12044877522eSPawel Jakub Dawidek	have to be recompiled to work with the new kernel. This includes the
12054877522eSPawel Jakub Dawidek	following libraries and programs, but the whole buildworld is
12064877522eSPawel Jakub Dawidek	advised: libc, libprocstat, dhclient, tcpdump, hastd, hastctl,
12074877522eSPawel Jakub Dawidek	kdump, procstat, rwho, rwhod, uniq.

1209c8a84c2aSJohn-Mark Gurney20130903:
1210c8a84c2aSJohn-Mark Gurney	AES-NI intrinsic support has been added to gcc.  The AES-NI module
1211c8a84c2aSJohn-Mark Gurney	has been updated to use this support.  A new gcc is required to build
1212c8a84c2aSJohn-Mark Gurney	the aesni module on both i386 and amd64.

121446be218dSDavid E. O'Brien20130821:
121546be218dSDavid E. O'Brien	The PADLOCK_RNG and RDRAND_RNG kernel options are now devices.
121646be218dSDavid E. O'Brien	Thus "device padlock_rng" and "device rdrand_rng" should be
121746be218dSDavid E. O'Brien	used instead of "options PADLOCK_RNG" & "options RDRAND_RNG".

12190ff204bbSPeter Wemm20130813:
12200ff204bbSPeter Wemm	WITH_ICONV has been split into two feature sets.  WITH_ICONV now
12210ff204bbSPeter Wemm	enables just the iconv* functionality and is now on by default.
12220ff204bbSPeter Wemm	WITH_LIBICONV_COMPAT enables the libiconv api and link time
1223a1ff7af0SPedro F. Giffuni	compatibility.  Set WITHOUT_ICONV to build the old way.
12240dc59c0fSPeter Wemm	If you have been using WITH_ICONV before, you will very likely
12250dc59c0fSPeter Wemm	need to turn on WITH_LIBICONV_COMPAT.

1227ccc88f7bSHiroki Sato20130806:
1228c319ea15SAndriy Gapon	INVARIANTS option now enables DEBUG for code with OpenSolaris and
1229c319ea15SAndriy Gapon	Illumos origin, including ZFS.  If you have INVARIANTS in your
1230c319ea15SAndriy Gapon	kernel configuration, then there is no need to set DEBUG or ZFS_DEBUG
1231c319ea15SAndriy Gapon	explicitly.
1232c319ea15SAndriy Gapon	DEBUG used to enable witness(9) tracking of OpenSolaris (mostly ZFS)
1233c319ea15SAndriy Gapon	locks if WITNESS option was set.  Because that generated a lot of
1234c319ea15SAndriy Gapon	witness(9) reports and all of them were believed to be false
1235c319ea15SAndriy Gapon	positives, this is no longer done.  New option OPENSOLARIS_WITNESS
1236c319ea15SAndriy Gapon	can be used to achieve the previous behavior.
1237c319ea15SAndriy Gapon
1238c319ea15SAndriy Gapon20130806:
1239ccc88f7bSHiroki Sato	Timer values in IPv6 data structures now use time_uptime instead
1240ccc88f7bSHiroki Sato	of time_second.  Although this is not a user-visible functional
1241ccc88f7bSHiroki Sato	change, userland utilities which directly use them---ndp(8),
1242ccc88f7bSHiroki Sato	rtadvd(8), and rtsold(8) in the base system---need to be updated
1243ccc88f7bSHiroki Sato	to r253970 or later.
1244ccc88f7bSHiroki Sato
12459d6d5a71SJilles Tjoelker20130802:
12469d6d5a71SJilles Tjoelker	find -delete can now delete the pathnames given as arguments,
12479d6d5a71SJilles Tjoelker	instead of only files found below them or if the pathname did
12489d6d5a71SJilles Tjoelker	not contain any slashes. Formerly, the following error message
12499d6d5a71SJilles Tjoelker	would result:
12509d6d5a71SJilles Tjoelker
12519d6d5a71SJilles Tjoelker	find: -delete: <path>: relative path potentially not safe
12529d6d5a71SJilles Tjoelker
12539d6d5a71SJilles Tjoelker	Deleting the pathnames given as arguments can be prevented
12549d6d5a71SJilles Tjoelker	without error messages using -mindepth 1 or by changing
12559d6d5a71SJilles Tjoelker	directory and passing "." as argument to find. This works in the
12569d6d5a71SJilles Tjoelker	old as well as the new version of find.
12579d6d5a71SJilles Tjoelker
1258663dea3dSAndriy Gapon20130726:
1259663dea3dSAndriy Gapon	Behavior of devfs rules path matching has been changed.
1260663dea3dSAndriy Gapon	Pattern is now always matched against fully qualified devfs
1261663dea3dSAndriy Gapon	path and slash characters must be explicitly matched by
1262663dea3dSAndriy Gapon	slashes in pattern (FNM_PATHNAME). Rulesets involving devfs
1263663dea3dSAndriy Gapon	subdirectories must be reviewed.

126546e95f64SAndrew Turner20130716:
126646e95f64SAndrew Turner	The default ARM ABI has changed to the ARM EABI. The old ABI is
126746e95f64SAndrew Turner	incompatible with the ARM EABI and all programs and modules will
126846e95f64SAndrew Turner	need to be rebuilt to work with a new kernel.
126946e95f64SAndrew Turner
127046e95f64SAndrew Turner	To keep using the old ABI ensure the WITHOUT_ARM_EABI knob is set.
127146e95f64SAndrew Turner
127246e95f64SAndrew Turner	NOTE: Support for the old ABI will be removed in the future and

1301ba10b444SSimon J. Gerraty
1302ba10b444SSimon J. Gerraty	this likely due to an old instance of make in

1311ff8d4375SSimon J. Gerraty20130516:
1312ff8d4375SSimon J. Gerraty	Use bmake by default.
1313ff8d4375SSimon J. Gerraty	Whereas before one could choose to build with bmake via
1314ff8d4375SSimon J. Gerraty	-DWITH_BMAKE one must now use -DWITHOUT_BMAKE to use the old
1315ff8d4375SSimon J. Gerraty	make. The goal is to remove these knobs for 10-RELEASE.
1316ff8d4375SSimon J. Gerraty
1317ff8d4375SSimon J. Gerraty	It is worth noting that bmake (like gmake) treats the command
1318ff8d4375SSimon J. Gerraty	line as the unit of failure, rather than statements within the
1319ff8d4375SSimon J. Gerraty	command line.  Thus '(cd some/where && dosomething)' is safer
1320ff8d4375SSimon J. Gerraty	than 'cd some/where; dosomething'. The '()' allows consistent
1321ff8d4375SSimon J. Gerraty	behavior in parallel build.

1375fe138cc2SAdrian Chadd20130301:
1376fe138cc2SAdrian Chadd	The ctl device has been disabled in GENERIC for i386 and amd64.
1377fe138cc2SAdrian Chadd	This was done due to the extra memory being allocated at system
1378fe138cc2SAdrian Chadd	initialisation time by the ctl driver which was only used if
1379fe138cc2SAdrian Chadd	a CAM target device was created.  This makes a FreeBSD system
1380fe138cc2SAdrian Chadd	unusable on 128MB or less of RAM.

13902dd076b8SGabor Kovesdan	A BSD-licensed patch(1) variant has been added and is installed
13912dd076b8SGabor Kovesdan	as bsdpatch, being the GNU version the default patch.
13922dd076b8SGabor Kovesdan	To inverse the logic and use the BSD-licensed one as default,
13932dd076b8SGabor Kovesdan	while having the GNU version installed as gnupatch, rebuild
13942d329593SGabor Kovesdan	and install world with the WITH_BSD_PATCH knob set.
13952dd076b8SGabor Kovesdan
1396fe06cae7SBrooks Davis20130121:
1397fe06cae7SBrooks Davis	Due to the use of the new -l option to install(1) during build
1398fe06cae7SBrooks Davis	and install, you must take care not to directly set the INSTALL
1399fe06cae7SBrooks Davis	make variable in your /etc/make.conf, /etc/src.conf, or on the
14008c5836c3SEitan Adler	command line.  If you wish to use the -C flag for all installs
1401fe06cae7SBrooks Davis	you may be able to add INSTALL+=-C to /etc/make.conf or
1402fe06cae7SBrooks Davis	/etc/src.conf.
1403fe06cae7SBrooks Davis
1404f2b19f9eSBrooks Davis20130118:
1405f2b19f9eSBrooks Davis	The install(1) option -M has changed meaning and now takes an
1406f2b19f9eSBrooks Davis	argument that is a file or path to append logs to.  In the
1407f2b19f9eSBrooks Davis	unlikely event that -M was the last option on the command line
1408f2b19f9eSBrooks Davis	and the command line contained at least two files and a target
1409f2b19f9eSBrooks Davis	directory the first file will have logs appended to it.  The -M
14104cf5de80SGlen Barber	option served little practical purpose in the last decade so its
14114cf5de80SGlen Barber	use is expected to be extremely rare.

14133fea4e6bSAndriy Gapon20121223:
14143fea4e6bSAndriy Gapon	After switching to Clang as the default compiler some users of ZFS
14153fea4e6bSAndriy Gapon	on i386 systems started to experience stack overflow kernel panics.
14163fea4e6bSAndriy Gapon	Please consider using 'options KSTACK_PAGES=4' in such configurations.

142511631ad0SPawel Jakub Dawidek	By default, only the 10 most recent kernel dumps will be saved.  To
142611631ad0SPawel Jakub Dawidek	restore the previous behaviour (no limit on the number of kernel dumps

1431e0fb6dc3SRobert Watson20121201:
1432e0fb6dc3SRobert Watson	With the addition of auditdistd(8), a new auditdistd user is now
14330312d1caSGlen Barber	required during installworld.  "mergemaster -p" can be used to
14340312d1caSGlen Barber	add the user prior to installworld, as documented in the handbook.
1435e0fb6dc3SRobert Watson
1436b91dc775SHiroki Sato20121117:
1437b91dc775SHiroki Sato	The sin6_scope_id member variable in struct sockaddr_in6 is now
1438b91dc775SHiroki Sato	filled by the kernel before passing the structure to the userland via
1439b91dc775SHiroki Sato	sysctl or routing socket.  This means the KAME-specific embedded scope
1440b91dc775SHiroki Sato	id in sin6_addr.s6_addr[2] is always cleared in userland application.
1441b91dc775SHiroki Sato	This behavior can be controlled by net.inet6.ip6.deembed_scopeid.
1442b91dc775SHiroki Sato	__FreeBSD_version is bumped to 1000025.
1443b91dc775SHiroki Sato
14445b6478b0SBrooks Davis20121105:
14455b6478b0SBrooks Davis	On i386 and amd64 systems WITH_CLANG_IS_CC is now the default.
14465b6478b0SBrooks Davis	This means that the world and kernel will be compiled with clang
14475b6478b0SBrooks Davis	and that clang will be installed as /usr/bin/cc, /usr/bin/c++,
14485b6478b0SBrooks Davis	and /usr/bin/cpp.  To disable this behavior and revert to building
1449da0e842aSWarner Losh	with gcc, compile with WITHOUT_CLANG_IS_CC. Really old versions
1450da0e842aSWarner Losh	of current may need to bootstrap WITHOUT_CLANG first if the clang
1451da0e842aSWarner Losh	build fails (its compatibility window doesn't extend to the 9 stable
1452da0e842aSWarner Losh	branch point).

1454ffdbf9daSAndrey V. Elsukov20121102:
1455a971b547SAndrey V. Elsukov	The IPFIREWALL_FORWARD kernel option has been removed. Its
1456ffdbf9daSAndrey V. Elsukov	functionality now turned on by default.
1457a971b547SAndrey V. Elsukov
14588f134647SGleb Smirnoff20121023:
1459cb69178dSAndre Oppermann	The ZERO_COPY_SOCKET kernel option has been removed and
1460cb69178dSAndre Oppermann	split into SOCKET_SEND_COW and SOCKET_RECV_PFLIP.
1461cb69178dSAndre Oppermann	NB: SOCKET_SEND_COW uses the VM page based copy-on-write
1462cb69178dSAndre Oppermann	mechanism which is not safe and may result in kernel crashes.
1463cb69178dSAndre Oppermann	NB: The SOCKET_RECV_PFLIP mechanism is useless as no current
1464cb69178dSAndre Oppermann	driver supports disposeable external page sized mbuf storage.
1465cb69178dSAndre Oppermann	Proper replacements for both zero-copy mechanisms are under
1466cb69178dSAndre Oppermann	consideration and will eventually lead to complete removal
1467cb69178dSAndre Oppermann	of the two kernel options.

1493d6b3aaf8SOleksandr Tymoshenko	The sdhci driver was split in two parts: sdhci (generic SD Host
1494d6b3aaf8SOleksandr Tymoshenko	Controller logic) and sdhci_pci (actual hardware driver).
1495d6b3aaf8SOleksandr Tymoshenko	No kernel config modifications are required, but if you
1496d6b3aaf8SOleksandr Tymoshenko	load sdhc as a module you must switch to sdhci_pci instead.

152046be218dSDavid E. O'Brien	Add the padlock_rng device in the custom kernel config if
1521d65043bcSKonstantin Belousov	needed.  The GENERIC kernels on i386 and amd64 do include the
152246be218dSDavid E. O'Brien	device, so the change only affects the custom kernel

1537614e3098SMarius Strobl	The sparc64 ZFS loader has been changed to no longer try to auto-
1538614e3098SMarius Strobl	detect ZFS providers based on diskN aliases but now requires these

15417e003b0aSChristian Brueffer20120712:
15421f13597dSJung-uk Kim	The OpenSSL has been upgraded to 1.0.1c.  Any binaries requiring
15431f13597dSJung-uk Kim	libcrypto.so.6 or libssl.so.6 must be recompiled.  Also, there are

1552d22c63acSGabor Kovesdan20120628:
1553d22c63acSGabor Kovesdan	The sort utility has been replaced with BSD sort.  For now, GNU sort
1554d22c63acSGabor Kovesdan	is also available as "gnusort" or the default can be set back to
1555d22c63acSGabor Kovesdan	GNU sort by setting WITH_GNU_SORT.  In this case, BSD sort will be
1556d22c63acSGabor Kovesdan	installed as "bsdsort".

15582d9cf57eSMartin Matuska20120611:
15592d9cf57eSMartin Matuska	A new version of ZFS (pool version 5000) has been merged to -HEAD.
15602d9cf57eSMartin Matuska	Starting with this version the old system of ZFS pool versioning
15612d9cf57eSMartin Matuska	is superseded by "feature flags". This concept enables forward
15622d9cf57eSMartin Matuska	compatibility against certain future changes in functionality of ZFS
15632d9cf57eSMartin Matuska	pools. The first read-only compatible "feature flag" for ZFS pools
15642d9cf57eSMartin Matuska	is named "com.delphix:async_destroy". For more information
15652d9cf57eSMartin Matuska	read the new zpool-features(5) manual page.

1569d1675e38SJason Evans20120417:
1570d1675e38SJason Evans	The malloc(3) implementation embedded in libc now uses sources imported
1571d1675e38SJason Evans	as contrib/jemalloc.  The most disruptive API change is to
1572d1675e38SJason Evans	/etc/malloc.conf.  If your system has an old-style /etc/malloc.conf,
1573d1675e38SJason Evans	delete it prior to installworld, and optionally re-create it using the
1574d1675e38SJason Evans	new format after rebooting.  See malloc.conf(5) for details
1575d1675e38SJason Evans	(specifically the TUNING section and the "opt.*" entries in the MALLCTL
1576d1675e38SJason Evans	NAMESPACE section).

157884db023eSJuli Mallett20120328:
157984db023eSJuli Mallett	Big-endian MIPS TARGET_ARCH values no longer end in "eb".  mips64eb
158084db023eSJuli Mallett	is now spelled mips64.  mipsn32eb is now spelled mipsn32.  mipseb is
158184db023eSJuli Mallett	now spelled mips.  This is to aid compatibility with third-party
158284db023eSJuli Mallett	software that expects this naming scheme in uname(3).  Little-endian
1583474dbfb7SWarner Losh	settings are unchanged. If you are updating a big-endian mips64 machine
1584474dbfb7SWarner Losh	from before this change, you may need to set MACHINE_ARCH=mips64 in
1585474dbfb7SWarner Losh	your environment before the new build system will recognize your machine.
158684db023eSJuli Mallett
15879c170fd1SAttilio Rao20120306:
15889c170fd1SAttilio Rao	Disable by default the option VFS_ALLOW_NONMPSAFE for all supported

1591c7e41c8bSMikolaj Golub20120229:
1592c7e41c8bSMikolaj Golub	Now unix domain sockets behave "as expected" on	nullfs(5). Previously
1593c7e41c8bSMikolaj Golub	nullfs(5) did not pass through all behaviours to the underlying layer,
1594c7e41c8bSMikolaj Golub	as a result if we bound to a socket on the lower layer we could connect
1595c7e41c8bSMikolaj Golub	only to the lower path; if we bound to the upper layer we could connect
1596c7e41c8bSMikolaj Golub	only to	the upper path. The new behavior is one can connect to both the
1597c7e41c8bSMikolaj Golub	lower and the upper paths regardless what layer path one binds to.

1600ca1672daSBjoern A. Zeeb	The getifaddrs upgrade path broken with 20111215 has been restored.
1601ca1672daSBjoern A. Zeeb	If you have upgraded in between 20111215 and 20120209 you need to
1602ca1672daSBjoern A. Zeeb	recompile libc again with your kernel.  You still need to recompile
1603ca1672daSBjoern A. Zeeb	world to be able to configure CARP but this restriction already
1604ca1672daSBjoern A. Zeeb	comes from 20111215.

1606e0e0f25bSDoug Barton20120114:
1607e0e0f25bSDoug Barton	The set_rcvar() function has been removed from /etc/rc.subr.  All
1608e0e0f25bSDoug Barton	base and ports rc.d scripts have been updated, so if you have a
1609e0e0f25bSDoug Barton	port installed with a script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d you can either
1610e0e0f25bSDoug Barton	hand-edit the rcvar= line, or reinstall the port.
1611e0e0f25bSDoug Barton
16125d482324SDoug Barton	An easy way to handle the mass-update of /etc/rc.d:

161590d82653SAndriy Gapon20120109:
161690d82653SAndriy Gapon	panic(9) now stops other CPUs in the SMP systems, disables interrupts
161790d82653SAndriy Gapon	on the current CPU and prevents other threads from running.
161890d82653SAndriy Gapon	This behavior can be reverted using the kern.stop_scheduler_on_panic
161990d82653SAndriy Gapon	tunable/sysctl.
162090d82653SAndriy Gapon	The new behavior can be incompatible with kern.sync_on_panic.

162208b68b0eSGleb Smirnoff20111215:
162308b68b0eSGleb Smirnoff	The carp(4) facility has been changed significantly. Configuration
162408b68b0eSGleb Smirnoff	of the CARP protocol via ifconfig(8) has changed, as well as format
162508b68b0eSGleb Smirnoff	of CARP events submitted to devd(8) has changed. See manual pages
162608b68b0eSGleb Smirnoff	for more information. The arpbalance feature of carp(4) is currently

162808b68b0eSGleb Smirnoff
162908b68b0eSGleb Smirnoff	Size of struct in_aliasreq, struct in6_aliasreq has changed. User

1656a24eff53SWarner Losh	General Notes
1657a24eff53SWarner Losh	-------------
1658456b5dd8SWarner Losh	Avoid using make -j when upgrading.  While generally safe, there are
1659456b5dd8SWarner Losh	sometimes problems using -j to upgrade.  If your upgrade fails with
16601733d35cSRuslan Ermilov	-j, please try again without -j.  From time to time in the past there
1661456b5dd8SWarner Losh	have been problems using -j with buildworld and/or installworld.  This
1662456b5dd8SWarner Losh	is especially true when upgrading between "distant" versions (eg one
1663456b5dd8SWarner Losh	that cross a major release boundary or several minor releases, or when
1664456b5dd8SWarner Losh	several months have passed on the -current branch).
1665a24eff53SWarner Losh
16665780f3baSWarner Losh	Sometimes, obscure build problems are the result of environment
16675780f3baSWarner Losh	poisoning.  This can happen because the make utility reads its
1668456b5dd8SWarner Losh	environment when searching for values for global variables.  To run
1669456b5dd8SWarner Losh	your build attempts in an "environmental clean room", prefix all make
1670456b5dd8SWarner Losh	commands with 'env -i '.  See the env(1) manual page for more details.
16715780f3baSWarner Losh
16725ad05815SWarner Losh	When upgrading from one major version to another it is generally best to
16735ad05815SWarner Losh	upgrade to the latest code in the currently installed branch first, then
16745ad05815SWarner Losh	do an upgrade to the new branch. This is the best-tested upgrade path,
16755ad05815SWarner Losh	and has the highest probability of being successful.  Please try this
16765ad05815SWarner Losh	approach if you encounter problems with a major version upgrade.  Since
16775ad05815SWarner Losh	the stable 4.x branch point, one has generally been able to upgade from
16785ad05815SWarner Losh	anywhere in the most recent stable branch to head / current (or even the
16795ad05815SWarner Losh	last couple of stable branches). See the top of this file when there's
16805ad05815SWarner Losh	an exception.
1681081ff8acSDoug Barton
16826eeab389SWarner Losh	When upgrading a live system, having a root shell around before
1683da0e842aSWarner Losh	installing anything can help undo problems. Not having a root shell
1684da0e842aSWarner Losh	around can lead to problems if pam has changed too much from your
1685da0e842aSWarner Losh	starting point to allow continued authentication after the upgrade.
1686da0e842aSWarner Losh
16879c80b8aaSWarner Losh	This file should be read as a log of events. When a later event changes
16889c80b8aaSWarner Losh	information of a prior event, the prior event should not be deleted.
16899c80b8aaSWarner Losh	Instead, a pointer to the entry with the new information should be
16909c80b8aaSWarner Losh	placed in the old entry. Readers of this file should also sanity check
16919c80b8aaSWarner Losh	older entries before relying on them blindly. Authors of new entries
16929c80b8aaSWarner Losh	should write them with this in mind.

16948fc25799SMartin Matuska	ZFS notes
16958fc25799SMartin Matuska	---------
16968fc25799SMartin Matuska	When upgrading the boot ZFS pool to a new version, always follow
16978fc25799SMartin Matuska	these two steps:
16988fc25799SMartin Matuska
16998fc25799SMartin Matuska	1.) recompile and reinstall the ZFS boot loader and boot block
17008fc25799SMartin Matuska	(this is part of "make buildworld" and "make installworld")
17018fc25799SMartin Matuska
17028fc25799SMartin Matuska	2.) update the ZFS boot block on your boot drive
17038fc25799SMartin Matuska
17048fc25799SMartin Matuska	The following example updates the ZFS boot block on the first
170572ce7f29SAlexander Leidinger	partition (freebsd-boot) of a GPT partitioned drive ada0:
170672ce7f29SAlexander Leidinger	"gpart bootcode -p /boot/gptzfsboot -i 1 ada0"
17078fc25799SMartin Matuska
17088fc25799SMartin Matuska	Non-boot pools do not need these updates.

1710dc0dbf5cSWarner Losh	To build a kernel
1711dc0dbf5cSWarner Losh	-----------------
1712ba01eb20SWarner Losh	If you are updating from a prior version of FreeBSD (even one just
17131cf0ef11SDavid E. O'Brien	a few days old), you should follow this procedure.  It is the most
17141cf0ef11SDavid E. O'Brien	failsafe as it uses a /usr/obj tree with a fresh mini-buildworld,
17151cf0ef11SDavid E. O'Brien
17161cf0ef11SDavid E. O'Brien	make kernel-toolchain
1717282e0f01SRuslan Ermilov	make -DALWAYS_CHECK_MAKE buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE

17202e937dd6SAlexander Leidinger	To test a kernel once
17212e937dd6SAlexander Leidinger	---------------------
17222e937dd6SAlexander Leidinger	If you just want to boot a kernel once (because you are not sure
17232e937dd6SAlexander Leidinger	if it works, or if you want to boot a known bad kernel to provide
17242e937dd6SAlexander Leidinger	debugging information) run
17252e937dd6SAlexander Leidinger	make installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE KODIR=/boot/testkernel
17262e937dd6SAlexander Leidinger	nextboot -k testkernel
17272e937dd6SAlexander Leidinger
1728ba01eb20SWarner Losh	To just build a kernel when you know that it won't mess you up
1729ba01eb20SWarner Losh	--------------------------------------------------------------
1730456b5dd8SWarner Losh	This assumes you are already running a CURRENT system.  Replace
17310fbd2da9SKen Smith	${arch} with the architecture of your machine (e.g. "i386",
1732456b5dd8SWarner Losh	"arm", "amd64", "ia64", "pc98", "sparc64", "powerpc", "mips", etc).

174563cb445eSWarner Losh	# Note: sometimes if you are running current you gotta do more than
174663cb445eSWarner Losh	# is listed here if you are upgrading from a really old current.

1761f27b1fceSJoseph Koshy	# In this approach we use a separate partition to hold
1762f27b1fceSJoseph Koshy	# current's root, 'usr', and 'var' directories.   A partition

1795ba26da8eSWarner Losh
1796fdb9f54dSWarner Losh	Make sure that you've read the UPDATING file to understand the
1797fdb9f54dSWarner Losh	tweaks to various things you need.  At this point in the life
1798fdb9f54dSWarner Losh	cycle of current, things change often and you are on your own
1799fdb9f54dSWarner Losh	to cope.  The defaults can also change, so please read ALL of
1800fdb9f54dSWarner Losh	the UPDATING entries.
1801ba26da8eSWarner Losh
18021dece4a9SWarner Losh	Also, if you are tracking -current, you must be subscribed to
18031dece4a9SWarner Losh	freebsd-current@freebsd.org.  Make sure that before you update
18041dece4a9SWarner Losh	your sources that you have read and understood all the recent
18051dece4a9SWarner Losh	messages there.  If in doubt, please track -stable which has
18061dece4a9SWarner Losh	much fewer pitfalls.
18071dece4a9SWarner Losh
1808134d2e86SWarner Losh	[1] If you have third party modules, such as vmware, you
1809134d2e86SWarner Losh	should disable them at this point so they don't crash your
1810134d2e86SWarner Losh	system on reboot.
1811134d2e86SWarner Losh
1812ee6e1fc3SWarner Losh	[3] From the bootblocks, boot -s, and then do
1813ee6e1fc3SWarner Losh		fsck -p
1814ee6e1fc3SWarner Losh		mount -u /
1815ee6e1fc3SWarner Losh		mount -a
18166586253aSWarner Losh		cd src
181747d0d01fSWarner Losh		adjkerntz -i		# if CMOS is wall time
1818f6a0ef01SWarner Losh	Also, when doing a major release upgrade, it is required that
1819f6a0ef01SWarner Losh	you boot into single user mode to do the installworld.
1820ee6e1fc3SWarner Losh
1821a6cd4f9dSWarner Losh	[4] Note: This step is non-optional.  Failure to do this step
1822a6cd4f9dSWarner Losh	can result in a significant reduction in the functionality of the
1823a6cd4f9dSWarner Losh	system.  Attempting to do it by hand is not recommended and those
1824a6cd4f9dSWarner Losh	that pursue this avenue should read this file carefully, as well
1825a6cd4f9dSWarner Losh	as the archives of freebsd-current and freebsd-hackers mailing lists
182650e8eca6SDoug Barton	for potential gotchas.  The -U option is also useful to consider.
182750e8eca6SDoug Barton	See mergemaster(8) for more information.
1828a6cd4f9dSWarner Losh
1829835284beSWarner Losh	[5] Usually this step is a noop.  However, from time to time
1830835284beSWarner Losh	you may need to do this if you get unknown user in the following
1831835284beSWarner Losh	step.  It never hurts to do it all the time.  You may need to
1832835284beSWarner Losh	install a new mergemaster (cd src/usr.sbin/mergemaster && make
1833835284beSWarner Losh	install) after the buildworld before this step if you last updated
183420e0cc0aSBrooks Davis	from current before 20130425 or from -stable before 20130430.
1835835284beSWarner Losh
183694877c06SAlexander Leidinger	[6] This only deletes old files and directories. Old libraries
183794877c06SAlexander Leidinger	can be deleted by "make delete-old-libs", but you have to make
183894877c06SAlexander Leidinger	sure that no program is using those libraries anymore.
183994877c06SAlexander Leidinger
1840456b5dd8SWarner Losh	[8] In order to have a kernel that can run the 4.x binaries needed to
1841456b5dd8SWarner Losh	do an installworld, you must include the COMPAT_FREEBSD4 option in
1842456b5dd8SWarner Losh	your kernel.  Failure to do so may leave you with a system that is
1843456b5dd8SWarner Losh	hard to boot to recover. A similar kernel option COMPAT_FREEBSD5 is
1844456b5dd8SWarner Losh	required to run the 5.x binaries on more recent kernels.  And so on
1845456b5dd8SWarner Losh	for COMPAT_FREEBSD6 and COMPAT_FREEBSD7.
1846c74fe6afSWarner Losh
1847e5dc5f61SWarner Losh	Make sure that you merge any new devices from GENERIC since the
1848e5dc5f61SWarner Losh	last time you updated your kernel config file.
1849e5dc5f61SWarner Losh
185021c075eaSWarner Losh	[9] When checking out sources, you must include the -P flag to have
1851e5dc5f61SWarner Losh	cvs prune empty directories.
1852e5dc5f61SWarner Losh
1853e5dc5f61SWarner Losh	If CPUTYPE is defined in your /etc/make.conf, make sure to use the
1854e5dc5f61SWarner Losh	"?=" instead of the "=" assignment operator, so that buildworld can
1855e5dc5f61SWarner Losh	override the CPUTYPE if it needs to.
1856e5dc5f61SWarner Losh
1857e5dc5f61SWarner Losh	MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX must be defined in an environment variable, and
1858e5dc5f61SWarner Losh	not on the command line, or in /etc/make.conf.  buildworld will
1859e5dc5f61SWarner Losh	warn if it is improperly defined.
