ddb.onpanic to 1, change it back to 0 in sysctl.conf and make sure
postinstall installs this setting.
This avoids us trying to dump while booting from install CD, but keeps
the default the same once we are far enough through /etc/rc.d. Failing
earlier is unlikely to be recovered by an automatic reboot.
OK: core.
- Make MD poffd(8) retire, and use MI powerd(8) instead of it.
- Make /dev/pow1 retire, because nobody holds /dev/pow0 any longer.
Use /dev/pow0 for pow(4) ioctl.
- POWIOCSSIGNAL ioctl which is for poffd(8) is also obsoleted.
specific set of user-derived variables, to be used in SOURCEMODE.
- In SOURCEMODE, generate the rc.d scripts xdm and xfs.
- Auto-detect if X11 sets are used (either through the value of MKX11 in
SOURCEMODE, or by finding an xetc-xpecific file in sets mode).
- Ignore X11-specific rc.d scripts if X11 is not used.
refers to tgz files or to a directory in which tgz files have already
been extracted, make it an error for the files that should have come
from etc.tgz to be missing. This is intended to prevent users from
accidentally deleting necessary files when they run "postinstall -s
xetc.tgz fix".
Use the absence of .../etc/mtree/set.etc in the extracted directory
as a test for the error case.
* Remove the ability to specify a colon-separated list of tgz files
using a single "-s" option, because ":" is now a valid character within the
name of a single file. Callers should use multiple "-s" options
instead.
* Almost all shell variables are now quoted, except where they
hold numeric values such as exit status, or where we want
the shell to split on spaces.
* Constructs like
_files="$@"
do_something_with $files
are changed to
#_files="$@"
do_something_with "$@"
* In contexts where we do actually want the args to be concatenated with
space separators, use "$*", not "$@".
Tested by running "postinstall check" with a SCRATCHDIR whose name
contained spaces.
btuartd(8) should be named btattach(8) for consistency
with other parts of NetBSD
make btattach(8) a single-use tool for less complexity
device specicific initialisation (from btuart(4)) is carried
out prior to activating the line discipline (in btattach(8)),
which simplifies the API somewhat and means that the user
tool and the kernel do not need to be kept in sync.
btuart(4) driver is much reduced; naming is made consistent
and all tsleep() and delay() are removed to userland
