decide whether to make kernel modules: set MKKMOD to no for evbppc.
Use this in etc/Makefile to decide whether to do the "modules"
obsolete sets. Move the ./var/db/obsolete/modules entry from the
"mi" to the "module.mi" file set.
Fixes the build for evbppc.
Discussed with uebayasi@
which potentially have multiple output files, which confuses make(1).
This wrapper copies all involved files into /tmp, execute the command, and
copy the wanted file back to ${.OBJDIR}. If this is expensive, consider to
rewrite the generation command to output files individually.
XXX bsd.own.mk is too bloated.
to ${LD} via:
${LDADD.${PROG}}
${LDFLAGS.${PROG}}
${LDSTATIC.${PROG}}
${LDADD.${LIB}}
${LDFLAGS.${LIB}}
OTOH you can't pass parameters to ${CC}, because in suffix rules make(1) only
knows the name of ${.IMPSRC} and ${.TARGET}; it's users' responsivility to
define ${CC} parameters to all the sources of a given ${PROG} / ${LIB}.
Should address bin/42381.

default of this platform. This fixed the build for NetBSD/amd64
and NetBSD/i386.
Yes, this horrible. There should be a better way to handle these
settings in general.
that also have the wsmouse driver.
xf86-input-ws adds support for touchpanels in X11 that report absolute position
data through wscons(4), e.g. the extended ums(4) driver. xf86-input-ws was
written by Matthieu Herrb for OpenBSD.
Please remember to also update xsrc before the next system build.
don't add ${CPPFLAGS_ISYSTEM} or ${CPPFLAGS_ISYSTEMXX} to refer

This change might cause errors on some MD stand dir, but in that case
each Makefile should be fixed to search proper system include paths
by -Ipath option in own CPPFLAGS.
SSP for building the whole source tree. Set this to "yes" for
NetBSD/amd64 and NetBSD/i386. It is now possible to get the old
behavior (build libs and certain programs with SSP) by setting
"USE_SSP_DEFAULT" to "no".
NetBSD/i386 as previously discussed on the "port-amd64" and
"port-i386" mailing lists. No objections from the core team.
Thanks a lot to Tobias Nygren for helping me with the benchmarking
and to Christos Zoulas for fixing SSP problems in cgd(4).
- Document new flags argument for pmap_kenter_pa
- Document new flags argument for pmap_enter as well
- Document the prot argument for pmap_kenter_pa. This is copy&pasted from
pmap_enter.
Patch showed on tech-kern@ http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-kern/2009/11/04/msg006436.html
Thanks to Martin Husemann for his comments to the original patch version.
- nss_mdns renamed to nss_multicast_dns for clarity and less chance of
confusion with nss_mdnsd (see next).
- Support using mdnsd for all unicast too with new nss_mdnsd module
(note: this mode requires an updated mdnsd too, not yet committed)
- Implement resolv.conf "search" directive support. Needed for nss_mdnsd,
potentially useful with nss_multicast_dns (you could now do
"search example.com local" in resolv.conf if you wanted to and it would
act as you might expect)
- Add references in nsswitch.conf man page and sample file
- Implement AI_CANONNAME
- Various bug fixes
These match what is really installed.
I know the man links are there too. But this helps in the
case where someone has printed man pages but only has one
man page printed per inode -- so best to refer to the known Dt name.
- Addresses the issue described in PR/38828.
- Some simplification in threading and sleepq subsystems.
- Eliminates pmap_collect() and, as a side note, allows pmap optimisations.
- Eliminates XS_CTL_DATA_ONSTACK in scsipi code.
- Avoids few scans on LWP list and thus potentially long holds of proc_lock.
- Cuts ~1.5k lines of code. Reduces amd64 kernel size by ~4k.
- Removes __SWAP_BROKEN cases.
Tested on x86, mips, acorn32 (thanks <mpumford>) and partly tested on
acorn26 (thanks to <bjh21>).

What makes this special is that the USB driver stack, the rum
driver, network subroutines and net80211 are running in userspace
in a rump kernel instead of in the host kernel.

- Separate the suser part of the bsd44 secmodel into its own secmodel
and directory, pending even more cleanups. For revision history
purposes, the original location of the files was
src/sys/secmodel/bsd44/secmodel_bsd44_suser.c
src/sys/secmodel/bsd44/suser.h
- Add a man-page for secmodel_suser(9) and update the one for
secmodel_bsd44(9).
- Add a "secmodel" module class and use it. Userland program and
documentation updated.
- Manage secmodel count (nsecmodels) through the module framework.
This eliminates the need for secmodel_{,de}register() calls in
secmodel code.
- Prepare for secmodel modularization by adding relevant module bits.
The secmodels don't allow auto unload. The bsd44 secmodel depends
on the suser and securelevel secmodels. The overlay secmodel depends
on the bsd44 secmodel. As the module class is only cosmetic, and to
prevent ambiguity, the bsd44 and overlay secmodels are prefixed with
"secmodel_".
- Adapt the overlay secmodel to recent changes (mainly vnode scope).
- Stop using link-sets for the sysctl node(s) creation.
- Keep sysctl variables under nodes of their relevant secmodels. In
other words, don't create duplicates for the suser/securelevel
secmodels under the bsd44 secmodel, as the latter is merely used
for "grouping".
- For the suser and securelevel secmodels, "advertise presence" in
relevant sysctl nodes (sysctl.security.models.{suser,securelevel}).
- Get rid of the LKM preprocessor stuff.
- As secmodels are now modules, there's no need for an explicit call
to secmodel_start(); it's handled by the module framework. That
said, the module framework was adjusted to properly load secmodels
early during system startup.
- Adapt rump to changes: Instead of using empty stubs for securelevel,
simply use the suser secmodel. Also replace secmodel_start() with a
call to secmodel_suser_start().
- 5.99.20.
Testing was done on i386 ("release" build). Spearated module_init()
changes were tested on sparc and sparc64 as well by martin@ (thanks!).

There's no such thing as ".Xs"; it was a typo for ".Sx". However,
.Sx is intended for references to another section of the same man page,
not for references to sections of a different man page.
Tested on Intel SS4200-E (ICH7), and Acorp 6A815EPD (ICH2) motherboards,
on amd64 and i386 ports respectively.
It should be noted that the majority of boards with ICH chips do not
expose the GPIO pins for off-board use. For instance, aside from the
three exposed-on-a-header pins on the 6A815EPD, another pin is also
used to control write protect on the FWH. The SS4200 exposes the GPIO
on a header that connects to the 10 LEDs on the front panel, as well
as a tact switch on the back panel.
lookup_for_nfsd(). This code is, or at least should be, the same as
the regular symlink-following code plus an extra flag nfsd needs.
The two lots of code can/will be merged in the future.

Also, clone the lookup_for_nfsd() entry point as

in rc.subr to be marked as optional. This means that it's not an
error if the file system is not mentioned in /etc/fstab. It is
still an error if something else goes wrong.
Change the defaults for these two variables in /etc/defaults/rc.conf:

and which can suppress output in silent mode. Silent mode is enabled
via the new rc_silent variable, which defaults to a value that depends
on the kern.boothowto sysctl.

kernel cgd driver in an application which encrypts and decrypts
files. The cgd driver is running completely in userspace and
requires no special access privileges.
For example:
golem> dmesg > dmesg.txt
# write encrypted dmesg.txt to encrypted.img
golem> ./img2cgd write encrypted.img dmesg.txt
/cryptfile's passphrase:
# read encrypted.img and output decrypted contents to decrypted.txt
golem> ./img2cgd read encrypted.img decypted.txt
/cryptfile's passphrase:
golem> diff dmesg.txt decypted.txt
# but when entering a different password:
golem> ./img2cgd read encrypted.img decypted.txt
/cryptfile's passphrase:
golem> diff dmesg.txt decypted.txt
Binary files dmesg.txt and decypted.txt differ
Currently the utility writes the data length in a proprietary
format, but I'll convert it to use a real disklabel RSN. Then it
can be used to create cgd-encrypted disk images.
This program can later be used as a base for a utility to create
cgd-encrypted images of a standard NetBSD build. Idea for such a
tool and hence the inspiration for this simple example program from
Roland Dowdeswell.
makes {MK,HAVE_}BINUTILS consistent with {MK,HAVE_}{GCC,GDB}.
Allow MKBFD to defines MKBINUTILS as a backwards compatibility hook.
Update the sets lists and add conditionals for lib{bfd,opcodes}.
It will replace azalia(4) after testing.
To use, comment out azalia in your kernel configuration and uncomment the
hdaudio and hdafg lines so it reads:
# Intel High Definition Audio
hdaudio* at pci? dev ? function ?
hdafg* at hdaudiobus?
You should also:
cd /dev
sh MAKEDEV audio
I am not marking the incorrect name as "obsolete" in the set lists
because it's been less than 12 hours. If you have already installed the
incorrectly named file, you will have to delete it manually.

XXX1: amiga also has the similar utility in amiga/stand/binpatch
but it has slightly different options.
XXX2: Is it worth to put this utility into MI src/usr.sbin to patch
rtc_offset etc. in GENERIC kernel binaries in distribution?
