MD MAKEDEV.conf into the generated file
don't copy the 'PLEASE RUN ...' paragraph to the generated file
don't copy the list of individual devices to the generated file -
the info is available in MAKEDEV(8) for those who need it
Hopefully I didn't make too much of a hash of the postinstall support for
this; it currently installs the file if there's none in the destination,
and elsewise notes if the CVS version differs (or is missing) but doesn't
try to fix that.
${rcvar}=yes yet all the other prerequisite tests are still performed.
The existing ``force'' prefix is a sledgehammer that ignores all the
prerequisite checks and always returns a zero exit status; this is a
more gentle approach to the problem of "manipulate this disabled
service without editing rc.conf(5)".
Add "iscsi-target" at 3260/tcp as per iana. Add "iscsi-rfc" at
860/tcp. Modify comment on "iscsi" service to indicate that it
should move to 860/tcp after the iSCSI RFC gets released. iscsi-rfc
should be removed at that point.
The problem with the iscsi service at present is that all through
draft development, everyone used 3260. As part of the RFC publishing,
the port number will be changed to 860. However no one has started
to use the new port number yet, so it's premature to switch yet.
information about the build, and "install-release-info" to install it.
(The latter will be invoked by src/Makefile)
Based on work by Hubert Feyrer <hubertf@> and the "params" target in
src/Makefile.

isn't enabled.
This is how the rc.d system works in conjunction with our current build
and install system; all the rc.d scripts are installed even if the
subsystems they control are not.
* Use "mknod -F netbsd -r" to create nodes, instead of
"rm ; mknod; chmod; chown".
This means permissions & ownership of existing nodes will
not be changed.
This is up to 30% faster when populating an empty /dev,
and nearly 2x faster when re-running on an existing /dev.
* New options:
-f force change of permission & ownership of existing
devices
-m mknod override name/path of mknod program
(which defaults to $TOOL_MKNOD, then "mknod").
-s generate mtree(8) specfile instead of creating devices
* Remove /usr/etc from $PATH; not needed anymore.
* Provide functions to create devices & directories:
mkdev name [b|c] major minor [mode{=600} [gid{=0} [uid{=0}]]]
create device node `name' with the appropriate permissions
lndev src target
create a symlink from src to target
makedir dir mode
create directory with appropriate mode
* UIDs and GIDs are hardcoded in at MAKEDEV generation time.
(Unfortunately there's not a simple way of determining a GID
a la "id -n user" for determining a UID).
This was tested by generating MAKEDEV for each MACHINE,MACHINE_ARCH
combination and comparing the results of "MAKEDEV all" from the
previous version to the new one.
(This testing actually highlighted mistakes in the previous configuration!)
Simplify distrib/common/Makefile.makedev to use "MAKEDEV -s"
instead of -v ETCDIR.
* Parse $NETBSDSRCDIR/etc/{master.passwd,group} to build a list of
user->uid and group->gid mappings, and replace %uid_XXX% and %gid_XXX%
appropriately.
* Whitespace & regex tweaks.
