# $NetBSD: BRANCHES,v 1.111 2006/10/02 10:29:09 yamt Exp $ # # This file contains a list of branches that exist in the NetBSD CVS # tree and their current state. # # This list is necessarily incomplete. # # Within reason, developers may create branch and version tags at any # time for any purpose. To avoid name collisions, private tags should # have names which begin with the developer's NetBSD login name # followed by a - or _ character (e.g., thorpej_scsipi, # thorpej-signal) # # Any branch or version tag not listed here should be assumed to be # private to the developer who created it. It is inappropriate for # anyone other than that developer to commit, move tags, or otherwise # modify the contents of the branch. # # Please update this file when a new branch is ready for consumption # by folks other than the maintainer, or when the use or status of an # existing branch changes significantly. # # Format: # Branch: name of branch # Description: Purpose and intention of the branch # Status: Active/Terminated/Dormant # Start Date: date first instantiated # End Date: date it was Terminated/made_Dormant, if any # Base Tag: netbsd-1-5-base, etc. # Maintainer: Somebody to blame. # Scope: Portion of the tree covered. # Notes: Various other info, perhaps explanation of special tags, # who-may-commit policies, etc. # # There are four sections to this file: # Release branches # Individual developers' branches (Active/Dormant) # Individual developers' branches (Terminated), and # other # # Entries within each section should be alphabetized. # # Release branches: Branch: comdex-fall-1999 Description: Special release branch for pre-1.5 release at Fall 1999 COMDEX.

Branch: gmcgarry_ctxsw Description: Separate scheduler from context-switch code Status: Dormant Start Date: 18 December 2002 End Date: Base Tag: gmcgarry_ctxsw_base Maintainer: Gregory McGarry Scope: kernel Notes: Removing knowledge of the schedular and its run queues from the machine-dependent context switch code is the first step in cleaning up the scheduler. It is necessary for the newlock branch, making the scheduler SMP friendly, adding real-time scheduler extensions, and reducing the number of code paths for LWP and proc switching. Branch: gmcgarry_ucred Description: Integrate and encapsulate user credentials Status: Dormant Start Date: 18 December 2002 End Date: Base Tag: gmcgarry_ucred_base Maintainer: Gregory McGarry Scope: kernel Notes: merge pcred and ucred and poolify Branch: kame Description: KAME Project Status: Dormant Start Date: 28 Jun 1999 End Date: Base Tag: Maintainer: Jun-ichiro itojun Hagino Scope: kernel Notes: http://www.kame.net Used for "reference" purposes for early part of KAME integration effort. The branch is not actively used, as I (itojun) use patch(1) and diff(1) for the KAME syncs.

Thorpe Scope: Kernel Notes: The goal is to replace the existing lockmgr() and simple_lock() based locking mechanisms with the primitives found in Solaris: mutexes and rwlocks. Branch: newlock2 Description: New locking primitives, based on Solaris's Status: Active Start Date: September 9, 2006 End Date: Base Tag: newlock2-base Maintainer: Andrew Doran Scope: Kernel Notes: As per the newlock branch, however given the amount of time the original branch has lain dormant, a new one has been created. Goals: - Implement new locking primitives on most-used ports. - Minor locking improvements. - Remove spinlockmgr(). Branch: peter-altq Description: New ALTQ framework: - sync with KAME sources - share mtag/name mapping functions - separate altq + pf attachment Status: Active Start Date: March 16, 2006 End Date: Base Tag: peter-altq-base Maintainer: Peter Postma , Martin Husemann , Matthias Scheler Scope: dist/pf dist/ipf distrib/sets/lists sys usr.sbin/altq Notes: Branch: pkgviews Description: package views, enabling multiple conflicting packages to co-exist Status: Active Start Date: 22 July 2002 End Date: Base Tag: pkgviews Maintainer: Alistair Crooks Scope: pkgsrc, basesrc/usr.sbin/pkg_install Notes: A more flexible infrastructure for third-party packages by allowing multiple conflicting packages and versions to co-exist within the same tree Branch: rpaulo-netinet-merge-pcb Description: merge in6pcb with inpcb Status: Active Start Date: Wed Feb 01 2006 End Date: Base Tag: rpaulo-netinet-merge-pcb-base Maintainer: Rui Paulo Scope: src/sys Notes: Branch: rtr-xorg-branch Description: xorg & static build alterations to src/x11 Status: Active Start Date: Nov 15 2004 End Date: Base tag: rtr-xorg-branch-base Maintainer: Tyler R.

Other tags starting with nathanw_sa reserved for branch management and are not guaranteed to be stable. Trunk tagged with "nathanw_sa_before_merge" prior to merging branch down to trunk. Branch tagged with "nathanw_sa_end" to indicate the ending revision of the branch.

Branch: sommerfeld_i386mp_1 Description: Multiprocessor support for i386 using Intel MP BIOS. Status: Terminated; merged to -current Start Date: 21 Feb 2000 End Date: 01 Oct 2002 Base Tag: sommerfeld_i386mpbase_1 Maintainer: Bill Sommerfeld Scope: sys/arch/i386 Notes: Code committed to the branch has booted to multiuser on at least one system. Not guaranteed to compile against mainline since -current may have changed incompatibly with the last branch update; use "cvs update -D" to roll-back the rest of the tree to match. Please get explicit permission from the maintainer before each commit, or your changes will be backed out. Other tags starting with sommerfeld_ are private to the developer and are guaranteed to be unstable. Only the maintainer should move tags. Note that this branch uses a DIFFERENT scheme for synching with the mainline. the maintainer uses some private scripts for keeping them in synch; if you make commits to the branch to "resynchronize" things, you'll probably do it wrong; instead, ask the maintainer to resynchronize things. See sys/arch/i386/TODO on the branch for a list of known issues with the branch.

The following processors have had cache ops written: * R2000/R3000 (cache_r3k) -- light testing, needs to be beat on a lot more to make sure it's working. * R4000/R4400 (cache_r4k) -- mhitch@NetBSD.org tracked down a bug, which has been fixed. Confirmed working on R4000-with-L2. Confirmed working on R4400-no-L2 and R4400-with-L2. * R4600/R5000 (cache_r5k) -- shin@NetBSD.org has committed fixes to this code. Confirmed working on R4600 v2 (SGI IP-22 with no SysAD L2 cache). Confirmed working on RM5260 (Algorithmics P-5064). * TX39 (cache_tx39) -- uch@NetBSD.org has committed fixes to this code. Awaiting confirmation that it is working properly. * R5900 (cache_r5900) -- uch@NetBSD.org has written this code and tested it on a PlayStation 2. The following ports have been updated to compile (and use optimized-for-processor bus_dma routines). Those that have been tested and work are marked with [WORKING]. * algor [WORKING] * arc [WORKING] * pmax [WORKING] * playstation2 [WORKING] Needs optimized bus_dmamap_sync(). * hpcmips [need verification that this is working] Needs optimized bus_dmamap_sync(). * sgimips [WORKING] Needs optimized bus_dmamap_sync(). * cobalt [need testing] * mipsco [need testing] * newsmips [need testing] Branch: thorpej_scsipi Description: SCSI/ATAPI midlayer rewrite.

Also DEV_BSIZE would go away. Status: Terminated Start Date: Aug or Sept 1999 End Date: 1 Apr 2000 Base tag: wrstuden-devbsize-base Maintainer: Bill Studenmund Scope: kernel Notes: No longer active due to lack of time, and introduction of UBC. In terms of UBC, the primary cache for file data is the VM cache, which needs to operate in terms of VM pages. As no existing device has native pages the same size as our VM pages, there already is a mapping going on between the VM system and the underlying blocks. So it would be easier and cleaner to adjust that to deal w/ different block sizes. Also with UBC, all i/o is in terms of bytes at an offset with a certain length, so the exact block size isn't a big deal. Any other wrstuden-devbsize tag may (and should) go away.
