* 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.

[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
This may be done either by embedding newlines in the value,
or by using semicolons to represent line breaks (but not both at once).

breakdown of commit:
* install relevant headers into /usr/include/rump
* build sys/rump/librump/rumpuser and sys/rump/librump/rumpkern
from src/lib and install as librumpuser and librump, respectively
+ this retains the ability to test a librump build with just the
kernel sources at hand
* move sys/rump/fs/lib/libukfs and sys/rump/fs/lib/libp2k to src/lib
for general consumption, they are not kernel-space dwellers anyway
* build and install sys/rump/fs/lib/lib$fs as librumpfs_$fs
* add chapter 3 manual pages for rump, rumpuser, ukfs and p2k
* build and install userspace kernel file system daemons if MKPUFFS=yes
is spexified
* retire fsconsole for now, it will make a comeback with an actually
implemented version shortly
This is consistent with several other rc.d scripts

This means all the pieces to do network installation are easily accessible

- Make MULTIPROCESSOR mandatory on i386.
Installation changes:
- Update installation section of release notes to match reality.
- Rename INSTALL to INSTALL_FLOPPY, retire INSTALL_LARGE.
- Build INSTALL kernel from GENERIC, like on amd64.
- Update boot menu to allow disabling ACPI and/or SMP.
- Remove GENERIC.NOACPI from the installed kernel list.
- TODO: install default boot.cfg in etc.tgz.
- TODO: possibly enable PCI fixup stuff at runtime if ACPI is disabled.
Build changes:
- No longer build ALL, it's for verification, is slow to build and the
build process is already crippled by the number of kernels built.
- No longer build GENERIC.NOACPI.
Only a sensor is only returning unknown data, all the other ones
match what the BIOS returns.
- Improve comments and add a note for contacting me if the values
returned by drivers are not correct.
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
like "cmd: not found" are also redirected.
This should fix a problem reported by Chavdar Ivanov in which
the message "mtree: not found" appears during installation.
already-existing device nodes. This is done by invoking pax with its
current working directory set to an empty temporary directory.
* Add "-t mtree" command line option, to force MAKEDEV to use "mtree
-e -U" to create device nodes. Here are some timings from "MAKEDEV
${method} all" on an i386 system; each method was executed three
times, first in an empty directory, then twice in an already-populated
directory:
-m mknod
4.56 real 1.58 user 1.68 sys
2.96 real 1.37 user 1.48 sys
2.95 real 1.43 user 1.44 sys
-p pax
1.80 real 0.18 user 0.62 sys

0.23 real 0.29 user 0.04 sys
0.24 real 0.28 user 0.05 sys
* If no command line options force a choice, then prefer mtree, pax, or
mknod, in that order of preference.
No objections in tech-userlevel to an earlier version of this change.
"retro" computers, but NetBSD also runs a growing number of rare
and retro add-on cards. With this patch, NetBSD supports the IDEC
Supervision/16, a black&white image capture board for the 16-bit
ISA bus. Approximate date of manufacture: 1991. Total instances
known to be in use throughout the world: one.
Coming soon; isvctl(8), the utility program for capturing 8-bit,

This is so that md code that tries to call makedev altq or fd does not fail
when the file exists. This was reported in port-powerpc, when building /dev.
Now "etcupdate -s /path/to/src" should no longer complain about being
unable to make atf-run.hooks. build.sh passes NETBSDSRCDIR in the
environment, so it used to work even without this include.
* Add a nooutput function to be used instead of redirecting to /dev/null,
because /dev/null might not exist early in the boot sequence. This
should fix a bug in which the pax autodetection failed when used from
init(8) with a read-only root file system without a /dev/null.
* Move most of the main program into a new makedev_main function,
to allow reuse by MAKEDEV.local.
In MAKEDEV.local:
* Use the new makedev_main function defined in MAKEDEV. This allows
MAKEDEV.local to support all the options understood by MAKEDEV, instead
of only a subset. This should fix a bug in which the setup() function
could try to use pax mode even though that was previously not supported.
In MAKEDEV.local man page:
* Update list of command line options.
* Don't explain all the options, just refer to MAKEDEV(8) man page.
* Remove BUGS section now that all MAKEDEV options are supported
by MAKEDEV.local.
Improve the documentation around that.
* The "-p pax", "-m mknod", and "-s" (mtree specfile) options should
always have been mutually exclusive. Now enforce that.
* The "-f" option didn't ever work with pax or mtree mode; document that,
and make it an error to try something that won't work.
* Make pax mode the default, if no other options prevent this, and if
"pax -w -M" appears to be usable.
* Add missing options to a usage message.

Fixes PR 37498 from dlagner at rambler.ru, using an idea from David
Laight. The while loop in the old code is executed in a subshell, so it
can't make persistent modifications to the parent shell's variables.
This change converts all the existing regression tests in regress/games
to the new framework provided by atf. As a side effect, this also moves
all the tests programs in regress/games to tests/games.
This change converts all the existing regression tests in
regress/sys/fs/tmpfs to the new framework provided by atf. As a side
effect, this also moves all the tests programs in regress/sys/fs/tmpfs to
tests/fs/tmpfs.
This change converts all the existing regression tests in regress/bin to
the new framework provided by atf. As a side effect, this also moves all
the tests programs in regress/bin to tests/util, as they all belong to
utilities installed by the base-util-root package.
This adds a new tests.tgz set to releases which includes all the tests
for the system. It is important to note that this set does not rely on
comp.tgz: a user of the system can run the tests without having the
development tools installed, which can be useful in a production machine.
This change adds the ATF manual pages that are not tied to any specific
tool nor library. It also adds some distribution documentation to the
system, as this is linked to by the manual pages (plus we have to install
the license text to comply with its terms).
This adds reachover Makefiles to build the libatf library and enables it in
the parent Makefile.
Things to review in this change:
* Add proper version numbers in the shlib_version files.
* Is libatf properly listed in lib/Makefile? It theoretically needs
libstdc++, but the resulting binary library is not linked against it.

- Introduce sme_class into the sysmon_envsys struct to specify a
class; currently there are two classes: SME_CLASS_ACADAPTER and
SME_CLASS_BATTERY.
- Add a new envsys event: PENVSYS_EVENT_LOW_POWER that is reached when
all SME_CLASS_BATTERY devices are in CRITICAL/LOW state and there's not
any SME_CLASS_ACADAPTER connected.
- Add the 'low-power' event into the sensor_battery script that will
shutdown the system gracefully via 'shutdown -p'. If powerd(8) is
not running, cpu_reboot(9) with RB_POWERDOWN is used.
- Make acpiacad(4) a SME_CLASS_ACADAPTER device and acpibat(4) a
SME_CLASS_BATTERY device.
Update the documentation accordingly to these changes.
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.

'ramdisk' MAKEDEV goal instead of from a Makefile definition. As there
is just one configuration for the ramdisk, it's better to keep everything
in one place.
(Part 4: documentation and configuration files)
* Support for detachable sensors.
* Cleaned up the API for simplicity and efficiency.
* Ability to send capacity/critical/warning events to powerd(8).
* Adapted all the code to the new locking order.
* Compatibility with the old envsys API: the ENVSYS_GTREINFO
and ENVSYS_GTREDATA ioctl(2)s are supported.
* Added support for a 'dictionary based communication channel' between
sysmon_power(9) and powerd(8), that means there is no 32 bytes event
size restriction anymore.
* Binary compatibility with old envstat(8) and powerd(8) via COMPAT_40.
* All drivers with the n^2 gtredata bug were fixed, PR kern/36226.
