tested by Rafael Ruiz on a AlphaStation 255 (thanks !).
non-PCI adapters are not supported; someone should make these work
as a wsfb device.
library. This is mostly a convenience, so that you can trigger
a shared library rebuild by touching the shlib_version file, it
should not otherwise impact the build one way or the other.
shared library. This is done so that -L options pointing into
DESTDIR will come after -L options pointing into our object tree
for shared libraries this shared library depends on.
This makes a difference when shared library major numbers are bumped
(as was recently done in our tree), and you build into an already-
populated DESTDIR, because otherwise the old major version shared
libraries will be picked up, because the new ones have not yet been
installed at this stage. This will in all probability lead to
conflicts later on when linking programs, where one would try to
mix new and old major versions for the same shared library.
I *hope* this will not have any negatively impact by moving other
order-dependent options around; local tests with rebuilds did not
uncover any problems I could see.

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).

[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.
Use of KM_NOSLEEP is strongly discouraged as it can
create transient, hard to debug failures that occur
when the system is under memory pressure.
In situations where it is not possible to sleep, for
example because locks are held by the caller, the
code path should be restructured to allow the allo-
cation to be made in another place.
-It can be enabled by tweaking kern.sched.kpreempt_pri sysctl.
+On architectures where kernel preemption is not supported natively, these
+functions may still be used.
- 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.
the base NetBSD system. It uses Linux LVM2 tools and our BSD licensed
device-mapper driver.
The device-mapper driver can be used to create virtual block devices which
maps virtual blocks to real with target mapping called target. Currently
these targets are available a linear, zero, error and a snapshot (this is
work in progress and doesn't work yet).
The lvm2tools adds lvm and dmsetup binary to based system, where the lvm
tool is used to manage and administer whole LVM and the dmestup is used to
communicate iwith device-mapper kernel driver. With these tools also
a libdevmapper library is instaled to the base system.
Building of tools and driver is currently disable and can be enabled with
MKLVM=yes in mk.conf. I will add sets lists and rc.d script soon.

- note header files in SYNOPSIS
- remove obsolete internal description about hardclock(9)
- note that microtime(9) and microuptime(9) family functions are prefered
for atomic operation (from FreeBSD's time(9))
- add more related Xrefs
