|
|
|
|
Changes from NetBSD 4.0 to NetBSD 5.0:
|
|
iwi(4): Use firmload(9) to load firmware images. You no longer need to
|
|
use iwictl(8) to load the firmware. [skrll 20060809]
|
|
acorn32: Remove the old, pre-wscons, console code. Kernel
|
|
configurations using the old console (kbd, vt, and vidcconsole)
|
|
will need to be updated to use wscons. [bjh21 20060814]
|
|
wpi(4): Driver for Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG. OpenBSD wpi driver
|
|
ported by Jean-Baptiste Campesato. [simonb 20060818]
|
|
acorn32: Correctly detect the display refresh rate being used under
|
|
RISC OS and look for a matching mode in a list of standard
|
|
video modes. This removes the requirement for compiling
|
|
RISC OS monitor definitions into the kernel. [bjh21 20060820]
|
|

|
|
[bjh21 20061022]
|
|
puffs: Integrate Pass-to-Userspace Framework File System, which
|
|
can be used to build userspace file system servers
|
|
[pooka 20061022]
|
|
hpcarm: Add timecounter support and convert to MI todr(9).
|
|
[peter 20061023]
|
|
less: Updated to version 394. [mrg 20061025]
|
|
i386: The support for the Multiboot Specification no longer relies
|
|
on the a.out kludge which means that a stock GRUB (without
|
|
custom patches) can be used to successfully boot the kernel.
|
|
[jmmv 20061025]
|
|
file(1): update to 4.18. [pooka 20061031]
|
|
puc(4): Add support for Perle PCI-RAS 4 port multimodem [manu 20061101]
|
|
rum(4): Added driver for Ralink 2501/2601 USB 802.11a/b/g
|
|
devices from OpenBSD. [joerg 20061101]
|
|
gkermit(1): Add gkermit, which is a program for transferring
|
|
files using the Kermit protocol. gkermit has no
|
|
interactive commands, no scripting, and no ability to
|
|
make connections. [apb 20061101]
|
|
i386: Change GENERIC, GENERIC.MP, GENERIC.MPACPI, GENERIC_LAPTOP,
|
|
INSTALL, INSTALL.MP, INSTALL_LAPTOP, and DISKLESS kernels
|
|
so that they are smaller and faster by removing support
|
|
for actual i386 CPUs (which lack write protection in
|
|
supervisor mode, which requires a costly workaround) and
|
|
math coprocessor emulation. Coprocessor emulation is
|
|
retained in the LAPTOP kernels, but not in the others.
|
|
Where it is known that a configuration cannot be run
|
|
with particular CPUs (i486 in *MP kernels) remove that
|
|
support as well. Compile all kernels with appropriate
|
|
architecture and tuning flags (reduces size, makes things
|
|
faster). Those requiring support for machines with i386
|
|
CPU or lacking coprocessor can use the *SMALL or *TINY
|
|
kernels. [tls 20061101]
|
|
useradd(8): Change the default shell for newly added users to
|
|
/bin/sh. [pavel 20061102]
|
|
tmpfs: NFS support is now complete. At the very least, all the
|
|
relevant tmpfs regression tests pass successfully when
|
|
executed over a remote tmpfs mounted through NFS.
|
|
[jmmv 20061105]
|
|
tmpfs: Add a LKM for this file system. [jmmv 20061105]
|
|
postfix: Updated to 2.3.4 [rpaulo 20061107]
|
|
macppc: use accelerated wsdisplay drivers [macallan 20061107]
|
|
evbarm: Add support for Certance CP-3100 [scw 20061108]
|
|
tmpfs: Audit kqueue notifications and add several regression
|
|
tests for them. [jmmv 20061109]
|
|
vnd: Make this work with files stored on file systems without
|
|
the bmap and strategy operations. This includes tmpfs
|
|
and smbfs. [jmmv 20061109]
|
|
paxctl: Enable as a tool, and add make rules to run paxctl on
|
|
binaries to what PROG_PAX is set. [christos 20061110]
|
|
lfs_cleanerd: Move from /usr/libexec to /libexec so that the
|
|
root file system can be safely placed on a LFS volume.
|
|
[jmmv 20061110]
|
|
tmpfs: Drop experimental status and enable it by default in the
|
|
GENERIC kernels of amd64, i386, macppc and sparc64.
|
|
[jmmv 20061110]
|
|
ssp: New library modelled after the gcc libssp. Stack protector
|
|
code from OpenBSD. Enable stack protection both in
|
|
the kernel and userland code by using USE_SSP=yes in
|
|
/etc/mk.conf [christos 20061111]
|
|
uucp: Removed from base; package can be found in pkgsrc
|
|
[christos 20061111]
|
|
openssl: update to 0.9.8d [christos 20061113]
|
|
wm(4): Add IPv6 Rx tcp/udp checksum offloading. [yamt 20061116]
|
|
mac68k: Add timecounter support. [hauke 20061120]
|
|
tcp(4), ifconfig(8), wm(4): Add TCPv6 hardware transmit segment
|
|
offload support. [yamt 20061124]
