-since getdevmajor(3) is now binary compatible again with <=5.0
there is no need to rename, I've just left a __getdevmajor50 symbol
temporarily for those who track -current
-update manpage
devmajor_t/devminor_t, as proposed on tech-kern.
This avoids 64-bit arithmetics and 64-bit printf formats in parts
of the kernel where it is not really useful, and helps clarity.
ok'ed by core and releng.
(thanks for agc@, snj@ and i'm sorry for long time patience).
[libc]
- localeio.[ch] and lc*.[ch] in src/lib/libc/locale was replaced by
new locale-db implementation using citrus_db backend,
see src/lib/libc/citrus/citrus_lc_*.[ch].
- add citrus_bcs_strtou?l.c. don't use strtou?l locale implementation
internally, because they're locale-aware function.
- add some stubs for multi-locale issue, see {current,global}_locale.c.
- remove some obsolete file, setrunelocale.c, ___runetype_mb.c.
- remove __savectype() from ctypeio.[ch].
[tools]
- mklocale(1): add new option ``-t'' that generates new style
LC_{MONETARY,NUMERIC,TIME,MESSAGES} locale-db format.
- chrtbl(1): added ctypeio.[ch] for __savectype().
[locale-db]
- added en_US.US-ASCII locale.
- removed some shareable locale definition file:
en_US.US-ASCII -> en_US.ISO8859-1, en_US.UTF-8
zh_CN.eucCN -> zh_CN.GB18030
and more...see src/share/locale/*/Makefile.
- remove obsoleted locale sr_YU, added new locale sr_ME, sr_RS.
- change locale name ja_JP.ISO2022-JP* -> ja_JP.ISO-2022-JP*
for X11's locale.alias file alignments.
- fix regression test, wrong wcs?width(3), NAN/INF usage.
i tested release-build following arch:
i386, amd64, hpc{mips,arm,sh}, sparc64, vax.
citrus_lc_*.[ch] also can read old-plain-text style locale-db.
so that backward compatibility is keeped, but lc*.[ch] can't read
new citrus_db'ed locale-db and localeio.c never check sanity,
so forward compatibility is broken ;-<
old mklocale(1) doesn't know -t option, so you have to rebuild toolchain.
I had added a getaddrinfo()/getnameinfo() lookup to obtain an FQDN even
if gethostname() would return only the local part of the hostname.
I did not really consider that many systems do not have FQDNs and more
importantly that the calls introduce a high latency (timeout) when DNS
is not available.
On the other hand I do not (or no longer) think that using a non-FQDN is
such a big problem here. Those users/admins that do collect logs from
different hosts and want an FQDN should notice the problem quickly
enough and can easily fix it by correctly setting their hostname.
- new syslog protocol api syslogp(3) that supports structured data
and draft-rfc timestamps
- reliable tcp connections with queueing
- encrypted connections
