They implement a space efficent write-once database with fast access
path. Switch the services(5) database to use cdb. The size of the
database file decreases from 2.1MB disk space to 307KB. Access
performance is about the same if setservent(0) is used and about an
order of magnitude faster otherwise. services_mkdb defaults to the new
format, but can optionally create the old db(3) format as well for
statically linked legacy applications.
We really should not add code that aims to satisfy some oddball firmware,
not in the generic drivers that aim to comply with the specifications.
In the long-term this is even worse than quirk tables.
This in turn was caused by a bug in ACPICA, which reports the types of _SB_
and _TZ_ scopes incorrectly for its own internal reasons (utglobal.c):
/*
* Predefined ACPI Names (Built-in to the Interpreter)
*
* NOTES:
* 1) _SB_ is defined to be a device to allow \_SB_._INI to be run
* during the initialization sequence.
* 2) _TZ_ is defined to be a thermal zone in order to allow ASL code to
* perform a Notify() operation on it.

Thanks to cegger@ for noticing the bug and testing a fix.
This retrieves a struct acpi_devnode from a handle. Since this requires
accessing the global softc, it is better to do it in one place alone. The
same goes for possible locking of the node-queue; it is better not to
publicize such a lock for generic device drivers.
detachment routine for acpitz(4). Add comments explaining the relationship
between power resources and active cooling. Also some improvements to code
readability.
scores file, the append-only log of all games) as int32_t instead of
time_t. Log files from before the 64-bit time_t change can now be read
again; however, log files from the last year of -current are hosed.
All none of you who play larn, take note...
Fix an off-by-one in the check for properly sized pkgdb entries.
It rejected perfectly valid entries.
Extract dependencies of libarchive from the pkgconfig file and thereby
drop knowledge of the needed libraries.
At least some versions of HP-UX are known to not support %zu, add a
workaround. This is using the black list approach for now.
Recognize xz as compression type for pkg_create.
The first time an error is hit while fetching packages, try to reget
from the same position. This works around the server closing the
connection while fetching dependencies.
Try to detect common forms of pkgdb corruption and issue a warning in
that case.
Refactor the pkg_vulnerabilities logic to use the compression support
from libarchive. This reduces the amount zlib/bzip2 interaction to
the linkage.
Add man pages for audit-packages and download-vulnerability-list which
point to pkg_admin and notes that the scripts are obsolete.
timeout and thread would have blocked, instead of ETIMEDOUT. Change is
to abstimeout2timo(), thus also affects _lwp_park(2).
Reported by Stathis Kamperis some months ago.
