MBR_BOOTCODE
optional MBR bootcode which should be installed by fdisk(8)
(default: empty)
- specified MBR_BOOTCODE must exist in ${DESTDIR}/usr/mdec
- if MBR_BOOTCODE is not specified,
MBR_DEFAULT_BOOTCODE (default: mbr) will be used
if the target ${MACHINE} has the one in /usr/mdec
INSTALLBOOTOPTIONS
options passed to installboot(8), e.g., -o console=com0
(default: empty)

Proposed by Brook Milligan on current-users@:
http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/current-users/2012/04/16/msg019892.html
Also make USE_MBR work on ${MACHINE}s which don't have the default
/usr/mdec/mbr bootcode. (no such port has the liveimage target yet though)
XXX: tools fdisk(8) implicitly uses host's /usr/mdec/mbr for the default
XXX: bootcode even for non-x86 targets if host is x86
Adjust various man pages and other documentation to point to capfile(5)
instead of termcap(5).
Remove getcap(3) as curses hasn't been building it for a long time.
Punt wrterm.c as tset no longer uses it.
Enables the user to configure a few additional items, including using
pkgin to manage binary packages, in a post-install menu which replaces
the series of questions (Do you want to set a root password? etc).
This is by no means a perfect solution, nor should it discourage anyone
from working on more sweeping changes to sysinst.
Some bug fixes, and .de translation provided by Julian Fagir.
XXX .es, .fr and .pl translations still needed. Please help!

If someone feels like adding and testing ustarfs support in the floppy

vector. This can normally be found via __ps_strings, but libc is
initialised too early when linked dynamically and doesn't have access to
it yet, so provide an alternative mechanism via ld.elf_so.
Bump libc minor.
window(1) was replaced by tmux(1) on March 2011. The source code has
been reimported into othersrc/usr.bin/window and an up-to-date package
is available in pkgsrc/misc/window.
This removal was approved by core@, with the condition that it be done
once netbsd-6 had been brached. And the branching has just happened!
Note that as of this writing the tool continues to work with the old
proplib-xml packet interface against the new libquota(3), so anyone
who has a use for it can bring it back from the Attic and/or create a
pkgsrc package.
Approved by releng for the freeze, and specifically okayed by core a
couple months ago.
- Remove old quotactl(2); replace with new __quotactl(2).
- Document quota_getrestrictions(3), the semantic restriction codes,
and quota_quotaon/off(3).
- Update VFS_QUOTACTL(9), which was still describing the pre-proplib API.
Approved by releng for the freeze.
- pull touchpanel adjustment ioctls to w100lcd.c for SL-C7x0/860
from zlcd.c for SL-C1000/3x00
- add sample xorg.conf for C7x0/860 (which have hardware screen rotation)
- rename old xorg.conf.sample for C1000/C3x00 to xorg.conf.C3x00
- adjust md set list

i.e. DEFAULT_UFS2 as src/distrib/utils/sysinst/bsddisklabel.c does
since post-NetBSD5. This avoids rendering an i386 or amd64 system
unbootable if the given example is thoughtlessly cut-and-pasted on
a NetBSD6.x system (been there, done that ;-) Qualify the descriptions
of /usr/mdec/bootxx_ffsv{1,2} along those lines.
Fixed a small typo in comment of distrib/utils/sysinst/arch/amd64/md.h.

This code has been developed by Abhinav Upadhyay as part of Google's Summer
of Code 2011. It uses libmandoc to parse man pages and builds a Full
Text Index in a SQLite database. The combination of indexing the full
manual page, filtering out stop words and ranking individual matches
based on the section gives a much improved user experience.
The old makewhatis and friends are kept under MKMAKEMANDB=no for now.
- fix typos in timecounter names.
- make sure to drain Tx FIFO to avoid clobbering
kernel boot messages.
- allow to have the 3rd UART.
- add missing time-of-day clock support.
Ok by releng.
- struct vfs_quotactl_args -> struct quotactl_args
- add sys/stdint.h to sys/quotactl.h for clean userland build
- install sys/quotactl.h in /usr/include
- update set lists for same
- add new marshalling code in libquota
- add new unmarshalling code in vfs_syscalls.c
- discard proplib interpreter code in vfs_quotactl.c
- add dispatching code for the 14 quotactl ops in vfs_quotactl.c
- mark the proplib quotactl syscall obsolete
- add a new syscall number for the new quotactl syscall
- change the name of the syscall to __quotactl()
- remove the decl of the old quotactl from quota/quotaprop.h
- add a decl of the new quotactl to sys/quotactl.h
- update the libc build
- update ktruss
- remove proplib marshalling code from libquota
- update copy of syscall table in gdb ppc sources
- hack rumphijack to accomodate new quotactl name (as I recall,
pooka wanted such a name change to simplify something, but I
don't really see what/how)
This change appears to require a kernel version bump for rumpish
reasons.
state of the stream. Change argument of the seek function to funopen() from
fpos_t to off_t. Make f{g,s}etpos() use the new fpos_t struct, while providing
backwards compatible entry points. Approved by releng@
and then modified, it is much easier to let this late, user-oriented
customisation be done automatically. These mods let mkimage change
information based on files in a "custom" directory, which can be set
in mkimage using -c customdir.
After all other configuration, the files under custom/ will be copied
into the main image. The files under custom/ are taken into account
when performing autosizing.
Also, generalise the sets directory to point to the current machine
architecture, although this can be overwritten from the command line
by anyone making cross-images.

+ mkimage will make an autosized image in a file (using vnd) from sets
the resulting image can be mounted read-only, with tmpfs used for volatile
files on top of read-only bases
+ mkpkgs will make an autosized image in a file (using vnd) from binary
packages
+ usermode is an easy way to invoke usermode, making sure that bridging
is set up properly, and that the host syscallemu module is loaded. This
script then runs usermode with two file images (as produced by mkimage
and mkpkgs)

Djamil Fagir. French, Spanish, and Polish translations are
still needed. OK christos, riz.
This is the user/application API and does not include the kernel
interface. Definitions shared with the kernel are found in
<sys/quota.h>.
Since I've been working on a local branch I have taken the liberty of
moving the latest-so-far version of <quota.h> to the front of the
patch queue. This loses (a small amount of) history but has the
advantage of avoiding unnecessary version bumps of libquota.so.
into the kernel if the "IPSEC" kernel option is given.
The old implementation is still available as KAME_IPSEC.
Do some minimal manpage adjustment -- kame_ipsec(4) is a copy
of the old ipsec(4) and the latter is now a copy of fast_ipsec(4).
built without TLS support, at least not without major surgery.
I've only tested this by building with "MKCRYPTO" set to "yes"
because the build fails much ealier otherwise.
Problem reported by Nick Hudson in private e-mail.
power switch handler of pow(4) deleted before.
Benefits than pow(4):
- separate a front switch (= powsw0) and an EXPWON line (= powsw1)
completely. Only powsw0 is enabled in GENERIC by default.
- prevent chattering in some hardware individuals.
thank you for a report and a test: Yasushi Oshima and Y.Sugahara.
at system shutdown. Disable with random_seed=NO in rc.conf if desired.
Goes to some trouble to never load or save to network filesystems.
Entropy should really be loaded by the boot loader but I am still
sorting out how to pass it to the kernel.
