Bug fixes:
- Fix crash reported by Scott Ellis on current-users@.
- Fix race conditions in enforcing the Veriexec rename and remove
policies. These are NOT security issues.
- Fix memory leak in rename handling when overwriting a monitored
file.
- Fix table deletion logic.
- Don't prevent query requests if not in learning mode.
KPI updates:
- fileassoc_table_run() now takes a cookie to pass to the callback.
- veriexec_table_add() was removed, it is now done internally. As a
result, there's no longer a need for VERIEXEC_TABLESIZE.
- veriexec_report() was removed, it is now internal.
- Perform sanity checks on the entry type, and enforce default type
in veriexec_file_add() rather than in veriexecctl.
- Add veriexec_flush(), used to delete all Veriexec tables, and
veriexec_dump(), used to fill an array with all Veriexec entries.
New features:
- Add a '-k' flag to veriexecctl, to keep the filenames in the kernel
database. This allows Veriexec to produce slightly more accurate
logs under certain circumstances. In the future, this can be either
replaced by vnode->pathname translation, or combined with it.
- Add a VERIEXEC_DUMP ioctl, to dump the entire Veriexec database.
This can be used to recover a database if the file was lost.
Example usage:
# veriexecctl dump > /etc/signatures
Note that only entries with the filename kept (that is, were loaded
with the '-k' flag) will be dumped.
Idea from Brett Lymn.
- Add a VERIEXEC_FLUSH ioctl, to delete all Veriexec entries. Sample
usage:
# veriexecctl flush
- Add a 'veriexec_flags' rc(8) variable, and make its default have
the '-k' flag. On systems using the default signatures file
(generaetd from running 'veriexecgen' with no arguments), this will
use additional 32kb of kernel memory on average.
- Add a '-e' flag to veriexecctl, to evaluate the fingerprint during
load. This is done automatically for files marked as 'untrusted'.
Misc. stuff:
- The code for veriexecctl was massively simplified as a result of
eliminating the need for VERIEXEC_TABLESIZE, and now uses a single
pass of the signatures file, making the loading somewhat faster.
- Lots of minor fixes found using the (still under development)
Veriexec regression testsuite.
- Some of the messages Veriexec prints were improved.
- Various documentation fixes.
All relevant man-pages were updated to reflect the above changes.
Binary compatibility with existing veriexecctl binaries is maintained.
device controllers, and more specifically raid controllers.
Add a new sensor type, ENVSYS_DRIVE, to report drive status. From OpenBSD.
Add bio and sysmon support to mfi(4). This allow userland to query
status for drives and logical volumes attached to a mfi(4) controller. While
there fix some debug printfs in mfi so they compile.
Add bio(4) to amd64 and i386 GENERIC.
- NetBSD's "newfs" doesn't accept a second (non-option) argument.
Patch provided by Jeff Ito in PR bin/36241.
- Use "sd0" instead of "rp0" because NetBSD's doesnt have a disk driver
called "rp".
- Use "/dev/rst0" instead of "/dev/rst8". With NetBSD's device numbering
scheme a system would have to have 9 tape drives to get "/dev/rst8".
print out the values of the bytes that do not match.
Add comment explaining that there is no documented rationale for the
check.
fsck_msdos checks that several bytes are equal in the primary and
backup bootblock. There is no documented rationale. The kernel does
not enforce this when mounting a filesystem. I have a FAT32
filesystem on my disk (mounted as /share) which fails this check, but
is accepted by both Windows XP and NetBSD. My volume differs in bytes
71-81. The primary contains "SHARE " and the backup NUL bytes.
Further, fsck_msdos does not have code to repair the mismatch. As a
result such filesystems can be used not checked.
- pass WARNS=4 and lint
- use size_t/time_t where appropriate
- get/setprogname()
- before executing rc.shutdown, set the real user id to 0, because shutdown
scripts may depend on it (for example su depends on being root).
- use warn instead of perror, and make sure we use the right errno.
Also pass "-ppax" in an attempt to get improved performance,
but this doesn't really work in the typical case, because the
install ramdisk image contains a version of pax(1) that doesn't
support the -M flag. (MAKEDEV detects the failure and falls back
to using mknod(8) as usual.)
always print an error message. If bootable and -v flag was
specified, print a success message. If -v flag was specified
more than once, also try to decode more information from
the PBR.
Input from dsl and bad.
Removes a load of code that is easier done as a script.
Whenever init exits, use a different error number. Since it is difficult
for init to output messages when /dev/console is absent, having the exit
code reported by the kernel panic gives a chance of identifying the fault.
Also exit if MAKEDEV fails to create /dev/console.

This means, for example, you can plug a sparc64 disk into an i386, run
this tool and mount the partitions (provided your kernel has the FFS_EI
option).

Now booting an INSTALL kernel with an embedded ramdisk correctly creates

few days ago.
