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
release) to not start postfix if $postfix is not explicitely set and
another mailer is selected in /etc/mailer.conf. Also print a warning if it
happens because the mailer in rc.conf is the removed sendmail.
This prevents starting two MTAs at once if one uses a custom MTA.

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.
This should avoid occasional problems with syncing or unmounting
filesystems on machines which use the automounter. Tested
successfully under NetBSD-i386 3.1_STABLE and 4.0_BETA2.
by killing the parent process. The parent's PID is saved in $RC_PID.
* In all rc.d/* scripts that previously tried to stop the boot,
replace in-line code with "stop_boot".

examples in the wscons.conf). Now, you have to specify wscons
control device and put variable name and parameter on separate
fields.
NB: changes ARE NOT backward compatible and config file must be
checked (but default config doesn't utilizing setvar).
* If per_user_tmp is disabled and /tmp equals to ${per_user_tmp_dir}/@uid,
remove it and recreate it with proper permissions (1777).
This fixes the problem when per_user_tmp is enabled and will put /tmp
on its original state when it's disabled.
Enabled via per_user_tmp in /etc/rc.conf (default off).

Lots of input from thorpej@ & christos@, thanks!
