Fix "MAKEDEV: bpp: unknown device" error on sparc{,64}, which is
observed in PR toolchain/45620 but not the fix.

This code has been developed by Abhinav Upadhyay as part of Google's Summer
of Code 2011. It uses libmandoc to parse man pages and builds a Full
Text Index in a SQLite database. The combination of indexing the full
manual page, filtering out stop words and ranking individual matches
based on the section gives a much improved user experience.
The old makewhatis and friends are kept under MKMAKEMANDB=no for now.
and sysinst may learn to write it (since, on some systems, most of
the keyboard input they ever get happens to be during install). Fix a
couple of minor problems with the random_seed rc script addition.
at system shutdown. Disable with random_seed=NO in rc.conf if desired.
Goes to some trouble to never load or save to network filesystems.
Entropy should really be loaded by the boot loader but I am still
sorting out how to pass it to the kernel.
is arguably equivalent to breaking.)
Per the discussion on tech-userlevel, document the settings offered.
(All of this needs quite a bit more work still.)

- remove all aliases
- remove annoying EXINIT setting
- comment out other environment settings

a few where foo*) changes to foo|foo[0-9]*) or some other slightly
more complex pattern.
This should prevent "MAKEDEV foobar0" from accidentally matching
the foo* pattern when it should really give an error, and it
should make the order of the patterns less critical.
This fixes a problem in which NetBSD.dist.tmp had been created in
the SRCDIR by an earlier build (performed without an OBJDIR), and
the existence of the file in the SRCDIR confused a subsequent build
(performed with an OBJDIR).
listens on drvctl for new devices and invokes MAKEDEV for them.
missing:
- manual page
- rc.d script
- more testing
but it works well enough to make new disk nodes appear in /dev when
netbsd sees them and they're missing. you will need to make sure
you have a new /dev/MAKEDEV for this to work properly (postinstall
should handle this normally, of course.)
thanks jared!
files, they are appended to the end of etc/defaults/rc.conf.
So rename them to rc.conf.append for clarity, as suggested by mrg@. Adapt
Makefile accordingly.
rc.conf file. This one should reside under etc/etc.${MACHINE}/, and will
get automatically appended to etc/defaults/rc.conf at build time if present.
This is used by i386 and amd64 to append a small MD rc.conf(5) configuration
at the end of the defaults/rc.conf file, so that powerd(8) can be started
by default when we are running in a Xen environment. This is needed to support
save/restore functions for domains.
From all the alternatives proposed to fix that issue (from /etc/rc.conf
parsing in postinstall to etc/defaults/rc.conf arch-hooks) I believe
this one will appease everyone because it:
- does not touch etc/defaults/rc.conf template file,
- patches it at build time for MD hooks only when required,
- does not need to parse/modify a user-specified file like /etc/rc.conf (which
is a complex, error-prone operation),
- only enables powerd(8) by default when conditions are met (Xen environment)
while still allowing root to shoot himself in the foot if he wants to
override this manually in /etc/rc.conf.

route6d is in /usr/sbin, and thus on systems with separate / and /usr,
/etc/rc.d/route6d can be run before /usr is mounted, resulting in
route6d mysteriously failing to start.
by /etc/rc. Similarly for printf with a format that does not end with
"\n". Previously, the partial line would not be visible on the console
until a newline was printed, possibly after an annoying delay.
This is done by adding echo() and printf() shell functions to rc.subr,
so that naive use of the echo and printf commands in rc.d scripts will
call these functions instead of the underlying commands. These shell
functions send a new "nop" metadata message after the partial line, and
the rc_postprocess function in /etc/rc disentangles the partial line of
plain output from the metadata "nop".
Also add a "-n" option to the print_rc_normal function in rc.subr,
and make some cosmetic changes.
we migrate to Kyua (atf v2), so it's better to use a generic name that does
not depend on the specific implementation. Also, this user has not gone
out yet into any stable release, so we can easily rename it.
