allows you to invoke rndctl(8) during the boot.
* Add rndctl=NO and rndctl_flags="" to /etc/defaults/rc.conf.
* Document rndctl and rndctl_flags variables in rc.conf(5).
output from mount(8) rather than df(1), because mount is more likely
to be available on install media. mount is invoked in a way that
always prints an error message, and the content of the error message
tells us whether fdesc is mounted. This should fix PR 40316 from
David Ross.
* Don't use negative variable names. Instead of nofdesc=false, use
fdesc_mounted=true.
* Add a comment explaining that MAKEDEV may be executed in an environment
that is missing some common commands.
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.
- 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.
When rc scripts are started from interactive shell, be nice and when user
tries to start an unconfigured service, point him to rc.conf(5) and tell
him about the one* keyword. Also be more user friendly when an unknown
argument is entered.
Example:
# /etc/rc.d/cron start
$cron is not enabled - see rc.conf(5).
Use the following if you wish to perform the operation:
/etc/rc.d/cron onestart
# /etc/rc.d/cron nonsense
/etc/rc.d/cron: unknown directive 'nonsense'.
Usage: /etc/rc.d/cron [fast|force|one](start stop restart rcvar status poll)

Reminded about it and reviewed by <lukem>
- introduce X11FLAVOUR to choose src/x11 vs src/external/mit/xorg
for the X11 to build if MKX11=yes is set. it takes the values
of either Xorg or XFree86.
- default to Xorg on alpha, i386, macppc, shark, sparc and sparc64
- remove MKXORG_WITH_XSRC_XSERVER, unused and never useful
as the console. Now when coming up in single user mode the tset in
/.profile can set the terminal type correctly.
Note: I believe constty should be 'on' and console 'off', but thats a
separate discussion
