include::shared/en/urls.adoc[]
The FreeBSD Release Engineering Team is pleased to announce the availability of FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE. This is the second release from the stable/9 branch, which improves on the stability of FreeBSD 9.0 and introduces some new features. Some of the highlights:
* New Intel GPU driver with GEM/KMS support
* netmap(4) fast userspace packet I/O framework
* ZFS improvements from illumos project
* CAM Target Layer, a disk and processor device emulation subsystem
* Optional new {cpp}11 stack including LLVM libc++ and libcxxrt
* Jail devfs, nullfs, zfs mounting and configuration file support
* POSIX2008 extended locale support, including compatibility with Darwin extensions
* oce(4) driver for Emulex OneConnect 10Gbit Ethernet card
* sfxge(4) driver for 10Gb Ethernet adapters based on Solarflare SFC9000 controller
* Xen Paravirtualized Backend Ethernet Driver (netback) improvement
* hpt27xx(4) driver for HighPoint RocketRAID 27xx-based SAS 6Gb/s HBA
* GEOM multipath class improvement
* GEOM raid class is enabled by default supporting software RAID by deprecated ataraid(8)
* kernel support for the AVX FPU extension
* Numerous improvements in IPv6 hardware offload support
*Please note that precompiled third-party packages are not available for 9.1-RELEASE at the time of release. See the link:#availability[Availability section] below for further details.*
For a complete list of new features and known problems, please see the online release notes and errata list available at:
* `http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.1R/relnotes/`
* `http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.1R/errata/`
For more information about FreeBSD release engineering activities please see:
* `http://www.FreeBSD.org/releng/`
== Availability
FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE is now available for the amd64, i386, powerpc64, and sparc64 architectures.
FreeBSD 9.1 can be installed from bootable ISO images or over the network. Some architectures also support installing from a USB memory stick. The required files can be downloaded via FTP or BitTorrent as described in the sections below. While some of the smaller FTP mirrors may not carry all architectures, they will all generally contain the more common ones such as amd64 and i386.
MD5 and SHA256 hashes for the release ISO images are included at the bottom of this message.
The purpose of the images provided as part of the release are as follows:
dvd1::
This contains everything necessary to install the base FreeBSD operating system, a collection of pre-built packages aimed at getting a graphical workstation up and running. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based rescue mode. This should be all you need if you can burn and use DVD-sized media.
disc1::
This contains the base FreeBSD operating system. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based rescue mode. There are no pre-built packages.
bootonly::
This supports booting a machine using the CDROM drive but does not contain the support for installing FreeBSD from the CD itself. You would need to perform a network based install (e.g. from an FTP server) after booting from the CD.
memstick::
This can be written to an USB memory stick (flash drive) and used to do an install on machines capable of booting off USB drives. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based rescue mode. There are no pre-built packages.
+
As one example of how to use the memstick image, assuming the USB drive appears as /dev/da0 on your machine something like this should work:
+
....
# dd if=FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img of=/dev/da0 bs=10240 conv=sync
....
+
Be careful to make sure you get the target (of=) correct.
Due to the security incident reported here:
http://www.FreeBSD.org/news/2012-compromise/
only the small third-party package set on the DVD image is available at this time for users who require pre-built packages (just GNOME and KDE windowing systems). The FreeBSD Project's package building infrastructure is undergoing a complete review and redesign. At this time we can not commit to a date the full release package set will become available. A separate announcement will be made when that becomes available. If you wish to install 9.1-RELEASE now you can build your own packages using portsnap(8) to obtain an up to date ports tree and then build the packages. If you require pre-built packages you should wait for the announcement of the full release package set becoming available.
FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE can also be purchased on CD-ROM or DVD from several vendors. One of the vendors that will be offering FreeBSD 9.1-based products is:
* FreeBSD Mall, Inc. `http://www.freebsdmall.com/`
== FTP
At the time of this announcement the following FTP sites have FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE available.

For instructions on installing FreeBSD or updating an existing machine to 9.1-RELEASE please see:
* `http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.1R/installation.html`
== Support
9.1-RELEASE is an extended support releases and will be supported by the FreeBSD Security Team until it's End-of-Life (EoL) date of December 31st 2014. As 9.1-RELEASE got delayed, the EoL of 9.0-RELEASE has been pushed to March 31st 2013 to allow people sufficient time to upgrade. As always all EoL dates can be found at http://security.FreeBSD.org/.
* `http://www.FreeBSD.org/security/`
== Other Projects Based on FreeBSD
There are many "third party" Projects based on FreeBSD. The Projects range from re-packaging FreeBSD into a more "novice friendly" distribution to making FreeBSD available on Amazon's EC2 infrastructure. For more information about these Third Party Projects see:
* `http://wiki.FreeBSD.org/3rdPartyProjects`
== Acknowledgments
Many companies donated equipment, network access, or man-hours to support the release engineering activities for FreeBSD 9.1 including The FreeBSD Foundation, Yahoo!, NetApp, Internet Systems Consortium, Sentex Communications, New York Internet, Juniper Networks, and iXsystems.
The release engineering team for 9.1-RELEASE includes:

<h2 id="availability">Availability</h2>
<p>FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE is now available for the amd64, i386,
powerpc64, and sparc64 architectures.</p>
<p>FreeBSD 9.1 can be installed from bootable ISO images or over
the network. Some architectures also support installing from a
USB memory stick. The required files can be downloaded via FTP
or BitTorrent as described in the sections below. While some of
the smaller FTP mirrors may not carry all architectures, they
will all generally contain the more common ones such as amd64
and i386.</p>
<p>MD5 and SHA256 hashes for the release ISO images are included
at the bottom of this message.</p>
<p>The purpose of the images provided as part of the release are
as follows:</p>
<dl>
<dt>dvd1</dt>
<dd><p>This contains everything necessary to install the base
FreeBSD operating system, a collection of pre-built packages
aimed at getting a graphical workstation up and running. It
also supports booting into a "livefs" based rescue mode.
This should be all you need if you can burn and use
DVD-sized media.</p></dd>
<dt>disc1</dt>
<dd><p>This contains the base FreeBSD operating system. It also
supports booting into a "livefs" based rescue mode. There
are no pre-built packages.</p></dd>
<dt>bootonly</dt>
<dd><p>This supports booting a machine using the CDROM drive but
does not contain the support for installing FreeBSD from the
CD itself. You would need to perform a network based
install (e.g. from an FTP server) after booting from the
CD.</p></dd>
<dt>memstick</dt>
<dd><p>This can be written to an USB memory stick (flash drive)
and used to do an install on machines capable of booting off
USB drives. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based
rescue mode. There are no pre-built packages.</p>
<p>As one example of how to use the memstick image, assuming
the USB drive appears as /dev/da0 on your machine something
like this should work:</p>
<pre xml:space="preserve"># dd if=FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img of=/dev/da0 bs=10240 conv=sync</pre>
<p>Be careful to make sure you get the target (of=) correct.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>Due to the security incident reported here:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/news/2012-compromise.html" shape="rect">http://www.FreeBSD.org/news/2012-compromise.html</a></p>
<p>only the small third-party package set on the DVD image is
available at this time for users who require pre-built packages
(just GNOME and KDE windowing systems). The FreeBSD Project's
package building infrastructure is undergoing a complete review
and redesign. At this time we can not commit to a date the full
release package set will become available. A separate
announcement will be made when that becomes available. If you
wish to install 9.1-RELEASE now you can build your own packages
using portsnap(8) to obtain an up to date ports tree and then
build the packages. If you require pre-built packages you
should wait for the announcement of the full release package set
becoming available.</p>
<p>FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE can also be purchased on CD-ROM or DVD from
several vendors. One of the vendors that will be offering FreeBSD
9.1-based products is:</p>

<h2>Support</h2>
<p>9.1-RELEASE is an extended support releases and will be
supported by the FreeBSD Security Team until it's End-of-Life
(EoL) date of December 31st 2014. As 9.1-RELEASE got delayed,
the EoL of 9.0-RELEASE has been pushed to March 31st 2013 to
allow people sufficient time to upgrade. As always all EoL dates
can be found at <a href="http://security.FreeBSD.org/" shape="rect">http://security.FreeBSD.org/</a>.</p>

Projects range from re-packaging FreeBSD into a more "novice
friendly" distribution to making FreeBSD available on Amazon's
EC2 infrastructure. For more information about these Third
Party Projects see:</p>

= FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE Errata
'''''
This document lists errata items for FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE, containing significant information discovered after the release or too late in the release cycle to be otherwise included in the release documentation. This information includes security advisories, as well as news relating to the software or documentation that could affect its operation or usability. An up-to-date version of this document should always be consulted before installing this version of FreeBSD.
This errata document for FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE will be maintained until the release of FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE.
'''''
[[intro]]
== Introduction
This errata document contains “late-breaking news” about FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE. Before installing this version, it is important to consult this document to learn about any post-release discoveries or problems that may already have been found and fixed.
Any version of this errata document actually distributed with the release (for example, on a CDROM distribution) will be out of date by definition, but other copies are kept updated on the Internet and should be consulted as the “current errata” for this release. These other copies of the errata are located at http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/, plus any sites which keep up-to-date mirrors of this location.
Source and binary snapshots of FreeBSD 9.1-STABLE also contain up-to-date copies of this document (as of the time of the snapshot).
For a list of all FreeBSD CERT security advisories, see http://www.FreeBSD.org/security/ or ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/.

[[late-news]]
== Late-Breaking News
[November 2, 2012] The current man:mfi[4] driver has an overflow bug when handling disks larger than 2^32 sectors in SYSPD volumes, also known as JBODs, which will cause data corruption. This bug has been fixed on this FreeBSD-CURRENT but was too late for inclusion in this release. An Errata Notice for 9.1-RELEASE is planned.
[December 25, 2012] The Installtion Instructions had the following wrong information about upgrading procedure. All of them have been fixed in the online version.
* The link URL of “upgrading section in the Release Notes”, branch names where upcoming Security Advisories or Errata Notices will be applied, and a command line argument of man:freebsd-update[8] were ones for 9.0-RELEASE, not for 9.1-RELEASE.
* The list of releases supported by man:freebsd-update[8] utility were incorrect. For 9.X, The following versions are supported: `9.0-RELEASE`, `9.1-BETA1`, and `9.1-RC[123]`.

= FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE Installation Instructions
'''''
This article gives some brief instructions on installing FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE and upgrading the systems running earlier releases.
'''''
[[install]]
== Installing FreeBSD
The link:{handbook}#bsdinstall[“Installing FreeBSD”] chapter of the link:{handbook}[FreeBSD Handbook] provides more in-depth information about the installation program itself, including a guided walk-through with screenshots.
'''''
[[upgrade]]
== Upgrading FreeBSD
If you are upgrading from a previous release of FreeBSD, please read http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.1R/relnotes-detailed/#upgrade[upgrading section in the Release Notes] for notable incompatibilities carefully.
'''''
=== Upgrading from Source
The procedure for doing a source code based update is described in link:{handbook}#synching[https://doc.FreeBSD.org/en/books/handbook/book/#synching] and link:{handbook}#makeworld[https://doc.FreeBSD.org/en/books/handbook/book/#makeworld].
For SVN use the `releng/9.1` branch which will be where any upcoming Security Advisories or Errata Notices will be applied. The branch tag to use for updating the source is `RELENG_9_1` for CVS.
'''''
=== Upgrading Using "FreeBSD Update"
The man:freebsd-update[8] utility supports binary upgrades of i386 and amd64 systems running earlier FreeBSD releases. Systems running `7.[34]-RELEASE`, `8.[12]-RELEASE`, `9.0-RELEASE`, `9.1-BETA1`, or `9.1-RC[123]` can upgrade as follows:
First, ensure that your current system is up to date; a change was recently made to man:freebsd-update[8] (Errata Notice http://security.FreeBSD.org/advisories/FreeBSD-EN-12:01.freebsd-update.asc[FreeBSD-EN-12:01.freebsd-update]) which is needed in order to upgrade to FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE.
[source,screen]
----
# freebsd-update fetch
# freebsd-update install
----
Now the man:freebsd-update[8] utility can fetch bits belonging to 9.1-RELEASE. During this process man:freebsd-update[8] will ask for help in merging configuration files.
[source,screen]
----
# freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.1-RELEASE
----
Due to changes in the way that FreeBSD is packaged on the release media, two complications may arise in this process if upgrading from FreeBSD 7.x or 8.x:
[arabic]
. The FreeBSD, which previously could appear in either `/boot/kernel` or `/boot/GENERIC`, now only appears as `/boot/kernel`. As a result, any kernel appearing in `/boot/GENERIC` will be deleted. Please carefully read the output printed by man:freebsd-update[8] and confirm that an updated kernel will be placed into `/boot/kernel` before proceeding beyond this point.
. The FreeBSD source tree in `/usr/src` (if present) will be deleted. (Normally the man:freebsd-update[8] utility will update a source tree, but in this case the changes in release packaging result in the man:freebsd-update[8] utility not recognizing that the source tree from the old release and the source tree from the new release correspond to the same part of FreeBSD.)
[source,screen]
----
# freebsd-update install
----
The system must now be rebooted with the newly installed kernel before the non-kernel components are updated.
[source,screen]
----
# shutdown -r now
----
After rebooting, man:freebsd-update[8] needs to be run again to install the new userland components:
[source,screen]
----
# freebsd-update install
----
At this point, users of systems being upgraded from FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE or earlier will be prompted by man:freebsd-update[8] to rebuild all third-party applications (e.g., ports installed from the ports tree) due to updates in system libraries.
After updating installed third-party applications (and again, only if man:freebsd-update[8] printed a message indicating that this was necessary), run man:freebsd-update[8] again so that it can delete the old (no longer used) system libraries:
[source,screen]
----
# freebsd-update install
----
Finally, reboot into 9.1-RELEASE
[source,screen]
----
# shutdown -r now
----

<span class="citerefentry"><span
class="refentrytitle">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> utility supports binary
&#09;upgrades of i386 and amd64 systems running &#09;earlier FreeBSD releases. Systems
running &#09;<tt class="literal">7.[34]-RELEASE</tt>, &#09;<tt
class="literal">8.[12]-RELEASE</tt>, &#09;<tt class="literal">9.0-RELEASE</tt>, &#09;<tt
class="literal">9.1-BETA1</tt>, or &#09;<tt class="literal">9.1-RC[123]</tt> can upgrade
as follows:</p>
<p>First, ensure that your current system is up to date; a &#09;change was recently made
to <a

upgrade to FreeBSD &#09;9.1-RELEASE.</p>
<pre class="screen">
<samp class="prompt">#</samp> freebsd-update fetch

<span class="citerefentry"><span

&#09;belonging to 9.1-RELEASE. During this process &#09;<a

<pre class="screen">
<samp class="prompt">#</samp> freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.1-RELEASE
</pre>
<p>Due to changes in the way that FreeBSD is packaged on the &#09;release media, two
complications may arise in this process if &#09;upgrading from FreeBSD 7.x or 8.x:</p>
<ol type="1">
<li>
<p>The FreeBSD, which previously could appear in either &#09; <tt

only appears as &#09; <tt class="filename">/boot/kernel</tt>. As a result, any &#09;
kernel appearing in <tt class="filename">/boot/GENERIC</tt> &#09; will be deleted. Please
carefully read the output printed &#09; by <a

proceeding beyond &#09; this point.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The FreeBSD source tree in <tt class="filename">/usr/src</tt> &#09; (if present) will
be deleted. (Normally the &#09; <a

<span class="citerefentry"><span
class="refentrytitle">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> utility will update a source

correspond to the same part of &#09; FreeBSD.)</p>
</li>
</ol>
<pre class="screen">
<samp class="prompt">#</samp> freebsd-update install

<p>The system must now be rebooted with the newly installed &#09;kernel before the

<p>At this point, users of systems being upgraded from FreeBSD &#09;8.2-RELEASE or

= FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE README
'''''
This document gives a brief introduction to FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE. It includes some information on how to obtain FreeBSD, a listing of various ways to contact the FreeBSD Project, and pointers to some other sources of information.
'''''
[[INTRO]]
== Introduction
This distribution is a release of FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE, the latest point along the 9.1-STABLE branch.
'''''
=== About FreeBSD
FreeBSD is an operating system based on 4.4 BSD Lite for AMD64 and Intel EM64T based PC hardware (amd64), Intel, AMD, Cyrix or NexGen “x86” based PC hardware (i386), Intel Itanium Processor based computers (ia64), NEC PC-9801/9821 series PCs and compatibles (pc98), and UltraSPARC(R) machines (sparc64). Versions for the ARM(R) (arm), MIPS(R) (mips), and PowerPC(R) (powerpc) architectures are currently under development as well. FreeBSD works with a wide variety of peripherals and configurations and can be used for everything from software development to games to Internet Service Provision.
This release of FreeBSD contains everything you need to run such a system, including full source code for the kernel and all utilities in the base distribution. With the source distribution installed, you can literally recompile the entire system from scratch with one command, making it ideal for students, researchers, or users who simply want to see how it all works.
A large collection of third-party ported software (the “Ports Collection”) is also provided to make it easy to obtain and install all your favorite traditional UNIX(R) utilities for FreeBSD. Each “port” consists of a set of scripts to retrieve, configure, build, and install a piece of software, with a single command. Over 23,000 ports, from editors to programming languages to graphical applications, make FreeBSD a powerful and comprehensive operating environment that extends far beyond what's provided by many commercial versions of UNIX. Most ports are also available as pre-compiled “packages”, which can be quickly installed from the installation program.
'''''
=== Target Audience
This release of FreeBSD is suitable for all users. It has undergone a period of testing and quality assurance checking to ensure the highest reliability and dependability.
'''''
[[OBTAIN]]
== Obtaining FreeBSD
FreeBSD may be obtained in a variety of ways. This section focuses on those ways that are primarily useful for obtaining a complete FreeBSD distribution, rather than updating an existing installation.
'''''
=== CDROM and DVD
FreeBSD -RELEASE distributions may be ordered on CDROM or DVD from several publishers. This is frequently the most convenient way to obtain FreeBSD for new installations, as it provides a convenient way to quickly reinstall the system if necessary. Some distributions include some of the optional, precompiled “packages” from the FreeBSD Ports Collection, or other extra material.
A list of the CDROM and DVD publishers known to the project are listed in the link:{handbook}#mirrors[“Obtaining FreeBSD”] appendix to the Handbook.
'''''
=== FTP
You can use FTP to retrieve FreeBSD and any or all of its optional packages from ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/, which is the official FreeBSD release site, or any of its “mirrors”.
Lists of locations that mirror FreeBSD can be found in the link:{handbook}#mirrors-ftp[FTP Sites] section of the Handbook. Finding a close (in networking terms) mirror from which to download the distribution is highly recommended.
Additional mirror sites are always welcome. Contact `<freebsd-admin@FreeBSD.org>` for more details on becoming an official mirror site. You can also find useful information for mirror sites at the link:{hubs}[Mirroring FreeBSD] article.
Mirrors generally contain the ISO images generally used to create a CDROM of a FreeBSD release. They usually also contain floppy disk images (for applicable platforms), as well as the files necessary to do an installation over the network. Finally mirrors sites usually contain a set of packages for the most current release.
'''''
[[CONTACTING]]
== Contacting the FreeBSD Project
=== Email and Mailing Lists
For any questions or general technical support issues, please send mail to the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions[FreeBSD general questions mailing list].
If you're tracking the 9.1-STABLE development efforts, you _must_ join the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current[FreeBSD-CURRENT mailing list], in order to keep abreast of recent developments and changes that may affect the way you use and maintain the system.
Being a largely-volunteer effort, the FreeBSD Project is always happy to have extra hands willing to help--there are already far more desired enhancements than there is time to implement them. To contact the developers on technical matters, or with offers of help, please send mail to the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers[FreeBSD technical discussions mailing list].
Please note that these mailing lists can experience _significant_ amounts of traffic. If you have slow or expensive mail access, or are only interested in keeping up with major FreeBSD events, you may find it preferable to subscribe instead to the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-announce[FreeBSD announcements mailing list].
All of the mailing lists can be freely joined by anyone wishing to do so. Visit the http://www.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo[FreeBSD Mailman Info Page]. This will give you more information on joining the various lists, accessing archives, etc. There are a number of mailing lists targeted at special interest groups not mentioned here; more information can be obtained either from the Mailman pages or the http://www.FreeBSD.org/support/#mailing-list[mailing lists section] of the FreeBSD Web site.
*Important:* Do _not_ send email to the lists asking to be subscribed. Use the Mailman interface instead.
'''''
=== Submitting Problem Reports
Suggestions, bug reports and contributions of code are always valued--please do not hesitate to report any problems you may find. Bug reports with attached fixes are of course even more welcome.
The preferred method to submit bug reports from a machine with Internet mail connectivity is to use the man:send-pr[1] command. “Problem Reports” (PRs) submitted in this way will be filed and their progress tracked; the FreeBSD developers will do their best to respond to all reported bugs as soon as possible. http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr-summary.cgi[A list of all active PRs] is available on the FreeBSD Web site; this list is useful to see what potential problems other users have encountered.
Note that man:send-pr[1] itself is a shell script that should be easy to move even onto a non-FreeBSD system. Using this interface is highly preferred. If, for some reason, you are unable to use man:send-pr[1] to submit a bug report, you can try to send it to the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs[FreeBSD problem reports mailing list].
For more information, link:{problem-reports}[“Writing FreeBSD Problem Reports”], available on the FreeBSD Web site, has a number of helpful hints on writing and submitting effective problem reports.

== Further Reading
There are many sources of information about FreeBSD; some are included with this distribution, while others are available on-line or in print versions.
'''''
[[RELEASE-DOCS]]
=== Release Documentation
A number of other files provide more specific information about this release distribution. These files are provided in various formats. Most distributions will include both ASCII text (`.TXT`) and HTML (`.HTM`) renditions. Some distributions may also include other formats such as Portable Document Format (`.PDF`).
* `README.TXT`: This file, which gives some general information about FreeBSD as well as some cursory notes about obtaining a distribution.
* `RELNOTES.TXT`: The release notes, showing what's new and different in FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE compared to the previous release (FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE).
* `HARDWARE.TXT`: The hardware compatibility list, showing devices with which FreeBSD has been tested and is known to work.
* `ERRATA.TXT`: Release errata. Late-breaking, post-release information can be found in this file, which is principally applicable to releases (as opposed to snapshots). It is important to consult this file before installing a release of FreeBSD, as it contains the latest information on problems which have been found and fixed since the release was created.
*Note:* It is extremely important to read the errata for any given release before installing it, to learn about any “late-breaking news” or post-release problems. The errata file accompanying each release (most likely right next to this file) is already out of date by definition, but other copies are kept updated on the Internet and should be consulted as the “current errata” for this release. These other copies of the errata are located at http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/ (as well as any sites which keep up-to-date mirrors of this location).
'''''
=== Manual Pages
As with almost all UNIX like operating systems, FreeBSD comes with a set of on-line manual pages, accessed through the man:man[1] command or through the http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi[hypertext manual pages gateway] on the FreeBSD Web site. In general, the manual pages provide information on the different commands and APIs available to the FreeBSD user.
In some cases, manual pages are written to give information on particular topics. Notable examples of such manual pages are man:tuning[7] (a guide to performance tuning), man:security[7] (an introduction to FreeBSD security), and man:style[9] (a style guide to kernel coding).
'''''
=== Books and Articles
Two highly-useful collections of FreeBSD-related information, maintained by the FreeBSD Project, are the FreeBSD Handbook and FreeBSD FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions document). On-line versions of the link:{handbook}[Handbook] and link:{faq}[FAQ] are always available from the http://www.FreeBSD.org/docs[FreeBSD Documentation page] or its mirrors. If you install the `doc` distribution set, you can use a Web browser to read the Handbook and FAQ locally. In particular, note that the Handbook contains a step-by-step guide to installing FreeBSD.
A number of on-line books and articles, also maintained by the FreeBSD Project, cover more-specialized, FreeBSD-related topics. This material spans a wide range of topics, from effective use of the mailing lists, to dual-booting FreeBSD with other operating systems, to guidelines for new committers. Like the Handbook and FAQ, these documents are available from the FreeBSD Documentation Page or in the `doc` distribution set.
A listing of other books and documents about FreeBSD can be found in the link:{handbook}#bibliography[bibliography] of the FreeBSD Handbook. Because of FreeBSD's strong UNIX heritage, many other articles and books written for UNIX systems are applicable as well, some of which are also listed in the bibliography.

[[ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS]]
== Acknowledgments
FreeBSD represents the cumulative work of many hundreds, if not thousands, of individuals from around the world who have worked countless hours to bring about this release. For a complete list of FreeBSD developers and contributors, please see link:{contributors}[“Contributors to FreeBSD”] on the FreeBSD Web site or any of its mirrors.
Special thanks also go to the many thousands of FreeBSD users and testers all over the world, without whom this release simply would not have been possible.

[[intro]]
== Introduction
This document contains the release notes for FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE. It describes recently added, changed, or deleted features of FreeBSD. It also provides some notes on upgrading from previous versions of FreeBSD.
This distribution of FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE is a release distribution. It can be found at http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/ or any of its mirrors. More information on obtaining this (or other) release distributions of FreeBSD can be found in the link:{handbook}#mirrors/["Obtaining FreeBSD" appendix] to the link:{handbook}[FreeBSD Handbook].
All users are encouraged to consult the release errata before installing FreeBSD. The errata document is updated with “late-breaking” information discovered late in the release cycle or after the release. Typically, it contains information on known bugs, security advisories, and corrections to documentation. An up-to-date copy of the errata for FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE can be found on the FreeBSD Web site.
'''''
[[new]]
== What's New
This section describes the most user-visible new or changed features in FreeBSD since 9.0-RELEASE.
Typical release note items document recent security advisories issued after 9.0-RELEASE, new drivers or hardware support, new commands or options, major bug fixes, or contributed software upgrades. They may also list changes to major ports/packages or release engineering practices. Clearly the release notes cannot list every single change made to FreeBSD between releases; this document focuses primarily on security advisories, user-visible changes, and major architectural improvements.

[[kernel]]
=== Kernel Changes
The FreeBSD Jail subsystem now supports mounting man:devfs[5], man:nullfs[5], and ZFS filesystem inside a jail. New man:jail[8] parameters `allow.mount.devfs`, `allow.mount.nullfs`, and `allow.mount.zfs` to control the per-jail capabilities have been added. All of them are disabled by default.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=232728[r232728]
A new man:loader[8] tunable `kern.eventtimer.activetick` has been added. This tunable specifies whether each hardclock tick should be run on every active CPU or only one. By setting it to `0`, the total number of interrupts can be reduced on SMP machines. The default value is `1`.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=234167[r234167]
The man:posix_fadvise[2] system call has been implemented. This is a function similar to man:madvise[2] except that it operates on a file descriptor instead of a memory region.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=229723[r229723]
The man:filemon[4] pseudo-device has been added. This allows a process to collect file operations data of its children.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=237795[r237795]
The man:sysctl[8] variable `kern.stop_scheduler_on_panic` is now set to `1` by default.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=235413[r235413]
[powerpc] FreeBSD/powerpc64 now supports kernel profiling by using man:kgmon[8].[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=231907[r231907]
The FreeBSD Linux ABI compatibility layer now supports the `linux_fadvise64()` and `linux_fadvise64_64()` system calls.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=231145[r231145]
The default value of the man:loader[8] tunable `hw.memtest.tests` is now automatically set to `0` when FreeBSD is running on a virtual machine.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=230266[r230266]
A new man:loader[8] tunable `kern.msgbuf_show_timestamp` has been added. When it is enabled, a timestamp is added to each line of the system message buffer. The default value is `0` (disabled).[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=234075[r234075]
The man:null[4] and man:zero[4] pseudo device driver now supports non-blocking mode via the man:fcntl[2] system call.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=230320[r230320]
The FreeBSD man:sched_ule[4] scheduler has been improved for CPU load balancing on SMT (Simultaneous MultiThreading) CPUs. It gives a 10-15% performance improvement when the number of threads is lesser than the number of logical CPUs.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=233599[r233599]
[sparc64] The `PREEMPTION` kernel option is now enabled in the `GENERIC` kernel.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=235992[r235992]
A new man:sysctl[8] variable `security.bsd.unprivileged_idprio` has been added. This variable controls whether non-root users can set an idle priority or not. This is disabled by default.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=230039[r230039]
The man:splash[4] screen interface now supports ASCII art in *TheDraw* format.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=228445[r228445]
'''''
[[boot]]
==== Boot Loader Changes
The man:boot0cfg[8] utility now supports configuration of PXE boot via the `boot0` boot block temporarily on the next boot. The slice number `6` or a keyword `PXE` can be specified to enable PXE boot using the `-s` option.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=230065[r230065]
The FreeBSD man:boot[8] block now supports `/boot/config` in addition to `/boot.config` as the boot block parameter file. When both of them exist, the former will be used.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=231287[r231287]
The `gptboot` boot block now reads the backup GPT header from the last LBA only when the primary GPT header and tables are invalid. This mitigates interoperability issues with some man:geom[4] providers like `MIRROR` which use the last LBA for the metadata.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=234693[r234693]
The `zfsboot` boot block and `zfsloader` support filesystems within a ZFS storage pool. In `zfsloader`, the ZFS device name format is now `zfs:pool`/`fs` and the fully qualified file path format is `zfs:pool`/`fs`:/`path/to/file`. The `zfsboot` boot block accepts the kernel/loader name in the format `pool`:`fs`:`path/to/file` or, as before, `pool`:`path/to/file`. In the latter case a default filesystem is used (the pool root or a filesystem with the `bootfs` property). The `zfsboot` boot block passes the GUIDs of the selected storage pool and dataset to `zfsloader` to be used as its defaults.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=237766[r237766]
[sparc64] FreeBSD/sparc64 now supports booting from ZFS via the `zfsboot` boot block and `zfsloader`. For example, the following commands create a mirrored storage pool `rpool` consisting of `da0a` and `da0b` and configure the storage pool as the root filesystem:[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=236076[r236076]

[[proc]]
==== Hardware Support
[powerpc] The man:abtn[4] driver, which supports ADB keyboards found on Apple laptops, has been added.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=230751[r230751]
[amd64] A workaround for Erratum 721 for AMD Processor Family 10h and 12h has been implemented. Under a highly specific and detailed set of internal timing conditions, the processor may incorrectly update the stack pointer after a long series of push and/or near-call instructions, or a long series of pop and/or near-return instructions.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=233798[r233798]
[powerpc] The atibl(4) driver, which supports backlight control of ATI graphics chips on PowerBooks and iBooks, has been added.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=232677[r232677]
The man:acpi_wmi[4] driver now supports attaching multiple instances.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=229858[r229858]
[powerpc] The adm1030(4) driver for G4 MDD fans now shows its PWM parameter in the device's man:sysctl[8] variable.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=230290[r230290]
[arm] The cesa(4) driver for the Marvell crypto engine and security accelerator has been added.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=234559[r234559]
[powerpc] The man:hwpmc[4] driver now supports PowerPC G4+ (MPC745x/MPC744x).[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=230305[r230305]
[amd64, i386] The man:hwpmc[4] driver now supports the Intel Sandy Bridge microarchitecture.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=234046[r234046]
The man:hwpmc[4] driver now supports software events. Simultaneous usage of software PMC and hardware PMC is allowed.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=236238[r236238]

==== File Systems
The FreeBSD NFS filesystem has been improved:
* It now supports a timeout on positive name cache entries on the client side. A new mount option `nametimeo` has been added and set to `60` (in seconds) by default.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=233326[r233326]
* A memory leak when a ZFS volume is exported via the FreeBSD NFS server has been fixed.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=234740[r234740]
* A bug has been fixed. When a process writes to an mmap-backed file on an NFS filesystem, flushing changes to the data could fail under some circumstances such as errors due to permission mismatch, and this failure could not be detected as an error. A new man:sysctl[8] variable `vfs.nfs.nfs_keep_dirty_on_error` has been added to control the behavior on the client side related to this issue. When this is set to `1`, the pages where a write operation failed are kept dirty. The default value is set to `0`.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=233730[r233730]
* The man:nfsv4[4] filesystem now supports a man:sysctl[8] variable `vfs.nfsd.disable_checkutf8`. This disables the check for UTF-8 compliance in filenames. This is disabled by default. Note that enabling this may help wht some interoperability issues but results in an NFSv4 server that is not RFC 3530 compliant.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=229799[r229799]

FreeBSD's ZFS filesystem has been updated by merging improvements from the illumos project. The following changes are made:[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=229578[r229578], http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=232328[r232328]
* New properties, `clones` and `written`, have been added.
* The man:zfs[8] `send` command now reports an estimated size of the stream.
* The man:zfs[8] `destroy` command now reports an estimate of the space which would be reclaimed, when `-n` is specified.
* The man:zfs[8] `get` command now supports the `-t type` flag to specify the data type.
A simple script `zfsboottest.sh` has been added to the source tree. This checks if the system is configured correctly when using ZFS as the root filesystem. The script is located at `/usr/src/tools/tools/zfsboottest.sh` and it uses the `zfsboottest` binary program in the same directory.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=227705[r227705]
The binary program can be built and installed by the following command:
[source,screen]
----
# cd /usr/src/tools/tools/zfsboottest
# make
# make install
----
After that, the following command can be used to check the system. `poolname` is the ZFS storage pool name to boot:
[source,screen]
----
# sh /usr/src/tools/tools/zfsboottest/zfsboottest.sh poolname
----
The man:sysctl[8] variable `vfs.zfs.txg.timeout` has been changed from read-only to writable.

Lock handling performance in the *libthr* pthread library has been improved. It now works 10 times faster especially under the condition that a mutex is heavily contested.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=234372[r234372]
A new {cpp} stack has been imported. This consists of *libcxxrt*, originally developed by a FreeBSD developer under contract by PathScale and open sourced by the FreeBSD and NetBSD foundations, and *libc++* from the LLVM project. *libcxxrt* is a drop-in replacement for GNU *libsupc++*, which implements the {cpp} runtime support for features such as run-time type information, dynamic casting, thread-safe static initializer, and exceptions. *libc++* implements the {cpp}11 standard library, and will replace GNU *libstdc++* in a future release. In 9.1-RELEASE, *libstdc++* is still installed as standard and now dynamically links against *libsupc++*. This allows libraries linking *libstdc++* and *libc++* to both be used in the same program, to aid migration.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=235798[r235798]
The man:limits[1] utility now supports a `-P pid` option to control limits for the specified process.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=230919[r230919]

A bug in the man:remquo[3] functions where the quotient did not always have the correct sign when the remainder was `0`, and another bug that the remainder and quotient were both off by a bit in certain cases involving subnormal remainders, have been fixed. Note that these bugs affected all platforms except amd64 and i386.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=234535[r234535]
The man:rtld[1] run-time linker now supports GCC's RELRO (RElocation Read-Only). This prevents the GOT (Global Offset Table) from being overwritten.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=231579[r231579]
The man:rtld[1] run-time linker now supports a GNU hash section (`DT_GNU_HASH`), which is a replacement of optional ELF hash section.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=235396[r235396]
The man:setbuf[1] utility and *libstdbuf* library have been added. This controls the default buffering behavior of standard stdio streams.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=235139[r235139]
The man:top[1] utility now correctly supports per-thread I/O statistics of ZFS in the `-m io` option.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=227702[r227702]
The man:unzip[1] utility now supports a `-Z` option for zipinfo.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=234330[r234330]
The man:xlocale[3] API has been implemented. This consists of `_l`-suffixed versions of various standard library functions that use the global locale, making them take an explicit locale parameter and allowing thread-safe extended locale support. Most of these APIs are required for IEEE Std 1003.1-2008 (POSIX.1-2008 or ISO/IEC 9945:2009) compatibility, and are required by *libc++* and recent versions of *GNOME*. This implementation also supports several extensions for compatibility with Apple *Darwin*.[http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=235785[r235785]

[[upgrade]]
== Upgrading from previous releases of FreeBSD
[[AEN1113]]
=== Upgrading using man:freebsd-update[8] or a source-based procedure
[amd64, i386] Beginning with FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE, binary upgrades between RELEASE versions (and snapshots of the various security branches) are supported using the man:freebsd-update[8] utility. The binary upgrade procedure will update unmodified userland utilities, as well as an unmodified `GENERIC` kernel, distributed as a part of an official FreeBSD release. The man:freebsd-update[8] utility requires that the host being upgraded have Internet connectivity.
Source-based upgrades (those based on recompiling the FreeBSD base system from source code) from previous versions are supported using to the instructions in `/usr/src/UPDATING`.
For more specific information about upgrading instructions, see http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.1R/installation/.
*Important:* Upgrading FreeBSD should, of course, only be attempted after backing up _all_ data and configuration files.

* The man:ixgbe[4] driver now supports the Intel X540 adapter. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=230775[r230775]
* The man:mfi[4] driver now supports single-message MSI, and Drake Skinny and Thunderbolt cards. The man:loader[8] tunable `hw.mfi.msi` has been added and it is enabled by default. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=229611[r229611], http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=234429[r234429]
* The man:mps[4] driver has been updated to version 14.00.00.01-fbsd. This now supports Integrated RAID, WarpDrive controllers, WRITE12 and READ12 for direct I/O, SCSI protection information (EEDP), Transport Level Retries (TLR) for tape drives, and LSI's userland utility. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=230920[r230920], http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=231679[r231679], http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=237876[r237876]
* The man:usb[4] storage device driver now enables power save mode by default. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=229107[r229107]
* The FreeBSD NFS filesystem has been improved:
** It now supports a timeout on positive name cache entries on the client side. A new mount option `nametimeo` has been added and set to `60` (in seconds) by default. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=233326[r233326]
** A memory leak when a ZFS volume is exported via the FreeBSD NFS server has been fixed. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=234740[r234740]
** A bug has been fixed. When a process writes to an mmap-backed file on an NFS filesystem, flushing changes to the data could fail under some circumstances such as errors due to permission mismatch, and this failure could not detected as an error. A new man:sysctl[8] variable `vfs.nfs.nfs_keep_dirty_on_error` has been added to control the behavior on the client side related to this issue. When this is set to `1`, the pages where a write operation failed are kept dirty. The default value is set to `0`. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=233730[r233730]
** The man:nfsv4[4] filesystem now supports a man:sysctl[8] variable `vfs.nfsd.disable_checkutf8`. This disables the check for UTF-8 compliance in the filenames. This is disabled by default. Note that enabling this may help some interoperability issues but results in an NFSv4 server that is non-RFC 3530 compliant. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=229799[r229799]
* The man:tmpfs[5] filesystem is not an experimental implementation anymore. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=234511[r234511]
* The man:tmpfs[5] filesystem now supports a man:sysctl[8] variable `vfs.tmpfs.memory_reserved` to set the amount of required free pages when man:tmpfs[5] attempts to allocate a new node. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=234849[r234849]
* FreeBSD ZFS filesystem has been updated by merging improvements from illumos project. The following changes are made: http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=229578[r229578], http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=232328[r232328]
** New properties, `clones` and `written`, have been added.
** The man:zfs[8] `send` command now reports an estimated size of the stream.
** The man:zfs[8] `destroy` command now reports an estimate of the space which would be reclaimed, when `-n` flag is specified.
** The man:zfs[8] `get` command now supports the `-t type` flag to specify the data type.
* The man:dhclient[8] utility now supports `domain-search` (option number 119, described in RFC 3397). This allows a DHCP server to publish a list of implicit domain suffixes used during name lookup. If this option is specified, a `search` keyword will be added to `/etc/resolv.conf`. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=230597[r230597]
* A bug in the man:gcc[1] compiler has been fixed. It could lead to incorrect calculations when `-ffast-math` is specified. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=234023[r234023]
* The man:ifconfig[8] utility now supports a `vlanhwcsum` parameter to set or reset checksum offloading capability on VLANs. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=231221[r231221]
* The man:ifconfig[8] utility now supports a `carp state` parameter to set the state to `backup` or `master` forcibly. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=232486[r232486]
* The man:jail[8] utility now supports a configuration file (man:jail.conf[5]) for complex configurations. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=235839[r235839]
* Lock handling performance in the *libthr* pthread library has been improved. It now works 10 times faster especially under the condition that a mutex is heavily contested. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=234372[r234372]
* A new {cpp} stack has been imported. This consists of *libcxxrt*, originally developed by a FreeBSD developer under contract by PathScale and open sourced by the FreeBSD and NetBSD foundations, and *{libcplusplus}* from the LLVM project. *libcxxrt* is a drop-in replacement for GNU {libsupcplusplus}, which implements the {cpp} runtime support for features such as run-time type information, dynamic casting, thread-safe static initializer, and exceptions. {libcplusplus} implements the {cpp}11 standard library, and will replace GNU {libstdcplusplus} in a future release. In 9.1-RELEASE, {libstdcplusplus} is still installed as standard and now dynamically links against {libsupcplusplus}. This allows libraries linking {libstdcplusplus} and {libcplusplus} to both be used in the same program, to aid migration. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=235798[r235798]
* The man:rtld[1] run-time linker now supports GCC's RELRO (RElocation Read-Only). This prevents the GOT (Global Offset Table) from being overwritten. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=231579[r231579]
* The man:rtld[1] run-time linker now supports a GNU hash section (`DT_GNU_HASH`), which is a replacement of optional ELF hash section. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=235396[r235396]
* The man:setbuf[1] utility and *libstdbuf* library have been added. This controls the default buffering behavior of standard stdio streams. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=235139[r235139]
* The man:xlocale[3] API has been implemented. This consists of `_l`-suffixed versions of various standard library functions that use the global locale, making them take an explicit locale parameter and allowing thread-safe extended locale support. Most of these APIs are required for IEEE Std 1003.1-2008 (POSIX.1-2008 or ISO/IEC 9945:2009) compatibility, and are required by {libcplusplus} and recent versions of *GNOME*. This implementation also supports several extensions for compatibility with Apple *Darwin*. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=235785[r235785]
* *ISC BIND* has been updated to version 9.8.3-P4. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=241417[r241417]
* The *compiler-rt* library, which provides low-level target-specific interfaces such as functions in *libgcc*, has been updated to revision 147467. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=236018[r236018]
* *file* ( man:file[1]) has been updated to version 5.11. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=237983[r237983]
* GNU man:gperf[1] has been updated to version 3.0.3 (the latest GPLv2-licensed version). http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=230237[r230237]
* *libarchive*, man:bsdtar[1], and man:cpio[1] have been updated to version 2.8.5. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=229588[r229588]
* *libpcap* library has been updated to 1.2.1. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=236167[r236167]
* *libstdc++* have been updated to rev 135556 of `gcc-4_2-branch` (the last LGPLv2-licensed version). http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=229551[r229551]
* The *LLVM* compiler infrastructure and *clang*, a C language family front-end, version 3.1 have been imported. Note that it is not used for building the FreeBSD base system by default. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=236144[r236144]
* The `netcat` utility has been updated to version 5.1. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=235971[r235971]
* *OpenSSL* has been updated to version 0.9.8x. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=237998[r237998]
* *tcpdump* (man:tcpdump[1]) utility has been updated to version 4.2.1. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=236192[r236192]
* The *TENEX C shell* (man:tcsh[1]) has been updated to version 6.18.01. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=232633[r232633]
* The *timezone* database has been updated to the *tzdata2012a* release. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=233447[r233447]
* *zlib* library has been updated to version 1.2.7. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=237691[r237691]
* The supported version of the *KDE* desktop environment (http://svnweb.FreeBSD.org/ports/head/x11/kde4/pkg-descr?revision=HEAD[`x11/kde4`]) has been updated to 4.8.4.

<span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">nullfs</span>(5)</span></a>, and ZFS
filesystem inside a jail. New <a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=jail&amp;sektion=8&amp;manpath=FreeBSD+9.1-RELEASE" shape="rect">
<span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">jail</span>(8)</span></a> parameters
<code class="varname">allow.mount.devfs</code>,
<code class="varname">allow.mount.nullfs</code>, and
<code class="varname">allow.mount.zfs</code> to
control the per-jail capabilities have been
added. All of them are disabled by default.[<a href="http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&amp;revision=232728" target="_top" shape="rect">r232728</a>]</p></li>

<span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">sched_ule</span>(4)</span></a>
scheduler has been improved on CPU load balancing of
SMT (Simultaneous MultiThreading) CPUs. It gives a
10-15% performance improvement when the number of
threads is lesser than the number of logical CPUs.[<a href="http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&amp;revision=233599" target="_top" shape="rect">r233599</a>]</p></li>

<li><p>A new C++ stack has been imported. This consists of
<b class="application">libcxxrt</b>, originally
developed by a FreeBSD developer under contract by
PathScale and open sourced by the FreeBSD and NetBSD
foundations, and <b class="application">libc++</b>
from the LLVM project. <b class="application">libcxxrt</b> is a drop-in replacement
for GNU <b class="application">libsupc++</b>, which
implements the C++ runtime support for features such
as run-time type information, dynamic casting,
thread-safe static initializer, and exceptions. <b class="application">libc++</b> implements the C++11
standard library, and will replace GNU <b class="application">libstdc++</b> in a future release. In
9.1-RELEASE, <b class="application">libstdc++</b> is
still installed as standard and now dynamically links
against <b class="application">libsupc++</b>. This
allows libraries linking <b class="application">libstdc++</b> and <b class="application">libc++</b> to both be used in the same
program, to aid migration.[<a href="http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&amp;revision=235798" target="_top" shape="rect">r235798</a>]</p></li>

<span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">xlocale</span>(3)</span></a> API has
been implemented. This consists of <tt class="literal">_l</tt>-suffixed versions of various
standard library functions that use the global
locale, making them take an explicit locale parameter
and allowing thread-safe extended locale
support. Most of these APIs are required for IEEE Std
1003.1-2008 (POSIX.1-2008 or ISO/IEC 9945:2009)
compatibility, and are required by <b class="application">libc++</b> and recent versions of
<b class="application">GNOME</b>. This implementation
also supports several extensions for compatibility

= FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE Announcement
include::shared/en/urls.adoc[]
The FreeBSD Release Engineering Team is pleased to announce the availability of FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE. This is the second release from the stable/9 branch, which improves on the stability of FreeBSD 9.1 and introduces some new features. Some of the highlights:
* The ZFS filesystem now supports TRIM when used on solid state drives.
* The virtio(4) drivers have been added to the GENERIC kernel configuration for amd64 and i386 architectures.
* The ZFS filesystem now supports lz4 compression.
* OpenSSL has been updated to version 0.9.8y.
* DTrace hooks have been enabled by default in the GENERIC kernel.
* DTrace has been updated to version 1.9.0.
* Sendmail has been updated to version 8.14.7.
* OpenSSH has been updated to version 6.2p2.
* Import unmapped I/O support from head/.
For a complete list of new features and known problems, please see the online release notes and errata list, available at:
* `http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.2R/relnotes/`
For more information about FreeBSD release engineering activities, please see:
* `http://www.FreeBSD.org/releng/`
== Availability
FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE is now available for the amd64, i386, ia64, powerpc, powerpc64, and sparc64 architectures.
FreeBSD 9.2 can be installed from bootable ISO images or over the network. Some architectures also support installing from a USB memory stick. The required files can be downloaded via FTP as described in the section below. While some of the smaller FTP mirrors may not carry all architectures, they will all generally contain the more common ones such as amd64 and i386.
MD5 and SHA256 hashes for the release ISO and memory stick images are included at the bottom of this message.
The purpose of the images provided as part of the release are as follows:
dvd1::
This contains everything necessary to install the base FreeBSD operating system, the documentation, and a small set of pre-built packages aimed at getting a graphical workstation up and running. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based rescue mode. This should be all you need if you can burn and use DVD-sized media.
disc1::
This contains the base FreeBSD operating system. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based rescue mode. There are no pre-built packages.
bootonly::
This supports booting a machine using the CDROM drive but does not contain the support for installing FreeBSD from the CD itself. You would need to perform a network based install (e.g. from an FTP server) after booting from the CD.
memstick::
This can be written to an USB memory stick (flash drive) and used to do an install on machines capable of booting off USB drives. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based rescue mode. There are no pre-built packages.
+
As one example of how to use the memstick image, assuming the USB drive appears as /dev/da0 on your machine something like this should work:
+
....
# dd if=FreeBSD-9.2-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img of=/dev/da0 bs=10240 conv=sync
....
+
Be careful to make sure you get the target (of=) correct.
FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE can also be purchased on CD-ROM or DVD from several vendors. One of the vendors that will be offering FreeBSD 9.2-based products is:
* FreeBSD Mall, Inc.`http://www.freebsdmall.com`
== FTP
At the time of this announcement the following FTP sites have FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE available.
* `ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ISO-IMAGES/9.2/`
However before trying these sites please check your regional mirror(s) first by going to:
* `ftp://ftp.<yourdomain>.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD`
Any additional mirror sites will be labeled ftp2, ftp3 and so on.
More information about FreeBSD mirror sites can be found at:
* `http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mirrors-ftp.html`
For instructions on installing FreeBSD or updating an existing machine to 9.2-RELEASE please see:
* `http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.2R/installation/`
== Support
FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE will be supported until 2014-09-30. The End-of-Life dates can be found at:
* `http://www.FreeBSD.org/security/`
=== Other Projects Based on FreeBSD
There are many "third party" Projects based on FreeBSD. The Projects range from re-packaging FreeBSD into a more "novice friendly" distribution to making FreeBSD available on Amazon's EC2 infrastructure. For more information about these Third Party Projects see:
* `http://wiki.FreeBSD.org/3rdPartyProjects`
=== Acknowledgments
Many companies donated equipment, network access, or man-hours to support the release engineering activities for FreeBSD 9.2 including The FreeBSD Foundation, Yahoo!, NetApp, Internet Systems Consortium, Sentex Communications, New York Internet, Juniper Networks, and iXsystems.
The release engineering team for 9.2-RELEASE includes:

<ul>
<li><p><tt><a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.2R/relnotes.html" shape="rect">http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.2R/relnotes.html</a></tt></p></li>
</ul>
<p>For more information about FreeBSD release engineering
activities, please see:</p>

</ul>
<h2 id="availability">Availability</h2>
<p>FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE is now available for the amd64, i386, ia64,
powerpc, powerpc64, and sparc64 architectures.</p>
<p>FreeBSD 9.2 can be installed from bootable ISO images or over
the network. Some architectures also support installing from
a USB memory stick. The required files can be downloaded via
FTP as described in the section below. While some of the
smaller FTP mirrors may not carry all architectures, they will
all generally contain the more common ones such as amd64 and
i386.</p>
<p>MD5 and SHA256 hashes for the release ISO and memory stick
images are included at the bottom of this message.</p>
<p>The purpose of the images provided as part of the release are
as follows:</p>
<dl>
<dt>dvd1</dt>
<dd><p>This contains everything necessary to install the base
FreeBSD operating system, the documentation, and a small
set of pre-built packages aimed at getting a graphical
workstation up and running. It also supports booting into
a "livefs" based rescue mode. This should be all you need
if you can burn and use DVD-sized media.</p></dd>
<dt>disc1</dt>
<dd><p>This contains the base FreeBSD operating system. It also
supports booting into a "livefs" based rescue mode. There are
no pre-built packages.</p></dd>
<dt>bootonly</dt>
<dd><p>This supports booting a machine using the CDROM drive but
does not contain the support for installing FreeBSD from the
CD itself. You would need to perform a network based install
(e.g. from an FTP server) after booting from the CD.</p></dd>
<dt>memstick</dt>
<dd><p>This can be written to an USB memory stick (flash drive)
and used to do an install on machines capable of booting off
USB drives. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based
rescue mode. There are no pre-built packages.</p>
<p>As one example of how to use the memstick image, assuming
the USB drive appears as /dev/da0 on your machine something
like this should work:</p>
<pre xml:space="preserve"># dd if=FreeBSD-9.2-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img of=/dev/da0 bs=10240 conv=sync</pre>
<p>Be careful to make sure you get the target (of=)
correct.</p></dd>
</dl>
<p>FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE can also be purchased on CD-ROM or DVD from
several vendors. One of the vendors that will be offering
FreeBSD 9.2-based products is:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>FreeBSD Mall, Inc.<tt><a href="http://www.freebsdmall.com/" shape="rect">http://www.freebsdmall.com</a></tt></p></li>
</ul>
<h2>FTP</h2>
<p>At the time of this announcement the following FTP sites have
FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE available.</p>
<ul>
<li><p><tt><a href="ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ISO-IMAGES/9.2/" shape="rect">ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ISO-IMAGES/9.2/</a></tt></p></li>
</ul>
<p>However before trying these sites please check your regional
mirror(s) first by going to:</p>

= FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE Errata
== Abstract
This document lists errata items for FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE, containing significant information discovered after the release or too late in the release cycle to be otherwise included in the release documentation. This information includes security advisories, as well as news relating to the software or documentation that could affect its operation or usability. An up-to-date version of this document should always be consulted before installing this version of FreeBSD.
This errata document for FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE will be maintained until the release of FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE.

[[intro]]
== Introduction
This errata document contains"late-breaking news" about FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE Before installing this version, it is important to consult this document to learn about any post-release discoveries or problems that may already have been found and fixed.
Any version of this errata document actually distributed with the release (for example, on a CDROM distribution) will be out of date by definition, but other copies are kept updated on the Internet and should be consulted as the "current errata" for this release. These other copies of the errata are located at `http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/`, plus any sites which keep up-to-date mirrors of this location.
Source and binary snapshots of FreeBSD 9.3-STABLE also contain up-to-date copies of this document (as of the time of the snapshot).
For a list of all FreeBSD CERT security advisories, see `http://www.FreeBSD.org/security/` or `ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/`.

= FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE Installation Instructions
'''''
This article gives some brief instructions on installing FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE and upgrading the systems running earlier releases.
'''''
[[INSTALL]]
== Installing FreeBSD
The link:{handbook}#bsdinstall[“Installing FreeBSD”] chapter of the link:{handbook}[FreeBSD Handbook] provides more in-depth information about the installation program itself, including a guided walk-through with screenshots.
'''''
[[UPGRADE]]
== Upgrading FreeBSD
'''''
=== Upgrading from Source
The procedure for doing a source code based update is described in link:{handbook}#synching[https://doc.FreeBSD.org/en/books/handbook/book/#synching] and link:{handbook}#makeworld[https://doc.FreeBSD.org/en/books/handbook/book/#makeworld].
For SVN use the `releng/9.2` branch which will be where any upcoming Security Advisories or Errata Notices will be applied.
Note that CVS is *not* supported.
'''''
=== Upgrading Using "FreeBSD Update"
The man:freebsd-update[8] utility supports binary upgrades of i386 and amd64 systems running earlier FreeBSD releases. Systems running `8.[34]-RELEASE`, `9.[01]-RELEASE`, `9.2-BETA[123]`, or `9.2-RC[1234]` can upgrade as follows:
[source,SCREEN]
----
# freebsd-update fetch
# freebsd-update install
----
Now the man:freebsd-update[8] utility can fetch bits belonging to 9.2-RELEASE. During this process man:freebsd-update[8] will ask for help in merging configuration files.
[source,SCREEN]
----
# freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.2-RELEASE
----
Due to changes in the way that FreeBSD is packaged on the release media, two complications may arise in this process if upgrading from FreeBSD 8.x:
[arabic]
. The FreeBSD kernel, which previously could appear in either `/boot/kernel` or `/boot/GENERIC`, now only appears as `/boot/kernel`. As a result, any kernel appearing in `/boot/GENERIC` will be deleted. Please carefully read the output printed by man:freebsd-update[8] and confirm that an updated kernel will be placed into `/boot/kernel` before proceeding beyond this point.
. The FreeBSD source tree in `/usr/src` (if present) will be deleted. (Normally the man:freebsd-update[8] utility will update a source tree, but in this case the changes in release packaging result in the man:freebsd-update[8] utility not recognizing that the source tree from the old release and the source tree from the new release correspond to the same part of FreeBSD.)
[source,SCREEN]
----
# freebsd-update install
----
The system must now be rebooted with the newly installed kernel before the non-kernel components are updated.
[source,SCREEN]
----
# shutdown -r now
----
After rebooting, man:freebsd-update[8] needs to be run again to install the new userland components:
[source,SCREEN]
----
# freebsd-update install
----
At this point, users of systems being upgraded from FreeBSD 8.4-RELEASE or earlier will be prompted by man:freebsd-update[8] to rebuild all third-party applications (e.g., ports installed from the ports tree) due to updates in system libraries.
After updating installed third-party applications (and again, only if man:freebsd-update[8] printed a message indicating that this was necessary), run man:freebsd-update[8] again so that it can delete the old (no longer used) system libraries:
[source,SCREEN]
----
# freebsd-update install
----
Finally, reboot into 9.2-RELEASE
[source,SCREEN]
----
# shutdown -r now
----

<pre class="SCREEN">
<samp class="PROMPT">#</samp> freebsd-update fetch

<p>Due to changes in the way that FreeBSD is packaged on the &#09;release media, two
complications may arise in this process if &#09;upgrading from FreeBSD 8.x:</p>
<ol type="1">
<li>
<p>The FreeBSD kernel, which previously could appear in either &#09; <tt

only appears as &#09; <tt class="FILENAME">/boot/kernel</tt>. As a result, any &#09;
kernel appearing in <tt class="FILENAME">/boot/GENERIC</tt> &#09; will be deleted. Please
carefully read the output printed &#09; by <a

proceeding beyond &#09; this point.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The FreeBSD source tree in <tt class="FILENAME">/usr/src</tt> &#09; (if present) will
be deleted. (Normally the &#09; <a

This document gives a brief introduction to FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE. It includes some information on how to obtain FreeBSD, a listing of various ways to contact the FreeBSD Project, and pointers to some other sources of information.
[[intro]]
== Introduction
This distribution is a snapshot of FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE, the latest point along the 9.2-STABLE branch.
== About FreeBSD
FreeBSD is an operating system based on 4.4 BSD Lite for AMD64 and Intel EM64T based PC hardware (amd64), Intel, AMD, Cyrix or NexGen "x86" based PC hardware (i386), Intel Itanium Processor based computers (ia64), NEC PC-9801/9821 series PCs and compatibles (pc98), and UltraSPARC(R) machines (sparc64). Versions for the ARM(R) (arm), MIPS(R) (mips), and PowerPC(R) (powerpc) architectures are currently under development as well. FreeBSD works with a wide variety of peripherals and configurations and can be used for everything from software development to games to Internet Service Provision.
This release of FreeBSD contains everything you need to run such a system, including full source code for the kernel and all utilities in the base distribution. With the source distribution installed, you can literally recompile the entire system from scratch with one command, making it ideal for students, researchers, or users who simply want to see how it all works.
A large collection of third-party ported software (the "Ports Collection") is also provided to make it easy to obtain and install all your favorite traditional UNIX(R) utilities for FreeBSD. Each "port" consists of a set of scripts to retrieve, configure, build, and install a piece of software, with a single command. Over 24,000 ports, from editors to programming languages to graphical applications, make FreeBSD a powerful and comprehensive operating environment that extends far beyond what's provided by many commercial versions of UNIX(R). Most ports are also available as pre-compiled "packages", which can be quickly installed from the installation program.
== Target Audience
This snapshot is aimed primarily at early adopters and various other users who want to get involved with the ongoing development of FreeBSD. While the FreeBSD development team tries its best to ensure that each snapshot works as advertised, 9.2-STABLE is very much a work-in-progress.
The basic requirements for using this snapshot are technical proficiency with FreeBSD and an understanding of the ongoing development process of FreeBSD 9.2-STABLE (as discussed on the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current[FreeBSD-CURRENT mailing list]).
For those more interested in doing business with FreeBSD than in experimenting with new FreeBSD technology, formal releases (such as 9.1-RELEASE) are frequently more appropriate. Releases undergo a period of testing and quality assurance checking to ensure high reliability and dependability.
[[obtain]]
== Obtaining FreeBSD
FreeBSD may be obtained in a variety of ways. This section focuses on those ways that are primarily useful for obtaining a complete FreeBSD distribution, rather than updating an existing installation.
== CDROM and DVD
FreeBSD -RELEASE distributions may be ordered on CDROM or DVD from several publishers. This is frequently the most convenient way to obtain FreeBSD for new installations, as it provides a convenient way to quickly reinstall the system if necessary. Some distributions include some of the optional, precompiled "packages" from the FreeBSD Ports Collection, or other extra material.
A list of the CDROM and DVD publishers known to the project are listed in the link:{handbook}#mirrors["Obtaining FreeBSD"] appendix to the Handbook.
== FTP
You can use FTP to retrieve FreeBSD and any or all of its optional packages from ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/, which is the official FreeBSD release site, or any of its "mirrors".
Lists of locations that mirror FreeBSD can be found in the link:{handbook}#mirrors-ftp[FTP Sites] section of the Handbook. Finding a close (in networking terms) mirror from which to download the distribution is highly recommended.
Additional mirror sites are always welcome. Contact `<freebsd-admin@FreeBSD.org>` for more details on becoming an official mirror site. You can also find useful information for mirror sites at the link:{hubs[Mirroring FreeBSD] article.
Mirrors generally contain the ISO images generally used to create a CDROM of a FreeBSD release. They usually also contain floppy disk images (for applicable platforms), as well as the files necessary to do an installation over the network. Finally mirrors sites usually contain a set of packages for the most current release.
[[contacting]]
== Contacting the FreeBSD Project
== Email and Mailing Lists
For any questions or general technical support issues, please send mail to the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions[FreeBSD general questions mailing list].
If you're tracking the 9.2-STABLE development efforts, you _must_ join the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current[FreeBSD-CURRENT mailing list], in order to keep abreast of recent developments and changes that may affect the way you use and maintain the system.
Being a largely-volunteer effort, the FreeBSD Project is always happy to have extra hands willing to help—there are already far more desired enhancements than there is time to implement them. To contact the developers on technical matters, or with offers of help, please send mail to the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers[FreeBSD technical discussions mailing list].
Please note that these mailing lists can experience _significant_ amounts of traffic. If you have slow or expensive mail access, or are only interested in keeping up with major FreeBSD events, you may find it preferable to subscribe instead to the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-announce[FreeBSD announcements mailing list].
All of the mailing lists can be freely joined by anyone wishing to do so. Visit the http://www.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo[FreeBSD Mailman Info Page]. This will give you more information on joining the various lists, accessing archives, etc. There are a number of mailing lists targeted at special interest groups not mentioned here; more information can be obtained either from the Mailman pages or the http://www.FreeBSD.org/support/#mailing-list[mailing lists section] of the FreeBSD Web site.
== Important:
Do _not_ send email to the lists asking to be subscribed. Use the Mailman interface instead.
== Submitting Problem Reports
Suggestions, bug reports and contributions of code are always valued—please do not hesitate to report any problems you may find. Bug reports with attached fixes are of course even more welcome.
The preferred method to submit bug reports from a machine with Internet mail connectivity is to use the man:send-pr[1] command. "Problem Reports" (PRs) submitted in this way will be filed and their progress tracked; the FreeBSD developers will do their best to respond to all reported bugs as soon as possible. http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr-summary.cgi[A list of all active PRs] is available on the FreeBSD Web site; this list is useful to see what potential problems other users have encountered.
Note that man:send-pr[1] itself is a shell script that should be easy to move even onto a non-FreeBSD system. Using this interface is highly preferred. If, for some reason, you are unable to use man:send-pr[1] to submit a bug report, you can try to send it to the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs[FreeBSD problem reports mailing list].
For more information, link:{problem-reports}["Writing FreeBSD Problem Reports"], available on the FreeBSD Web site, has a number of helpful hints on writing and submitting effective problem reports.
[[seealso]]
== Further Reading
There are many sources of information about FreeBSD; some are included with this distribution, while others are available on-line or in print versions.
[[release-docs]]
== Release Documentation
A number of other files provide more specific information about this snapshot distribution. These files are provided in various formats. Most distributions will include both ASCII text (`.TXT`) and HTML (`.HTM`) renditions. Some distributions may also include other formats such as Portable Document Format (`.PDF`).
* `README.TXT`: This file, which gives some general information about FreeBSD as well as some cursory notes about obtaining a distribution.
* `RELNOTES.TXT`: The release notes, showing what's new and different in FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE compared to the previous release (FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE).
* `HARDWARE.TXT`: The hardware compatibility list, showing devices with which FreeBSD has been tested and is known to work.
* `ERRATA.TXT`: Release errata. Late-breaking, post-release information can be found in this file, which is principally applicable to releases (as opposed to snapshots). It is important to consult this file before installing a release of FreeBSD, as it contains the latest information on problems which have been found and fixed since the release was created.
== Note:
It is extremely important to read the errata for any given release before installing it, to learn about any "late-breaking news" or post-release problems. The errata file accompanying each release (most likely right next to this file) is already out of date by definition, but other copies are kept updated on the Internet and should be consulted as the "current errata" for this release. These other copies of the errata are located at http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/ (as well as any sites which keep up-to-date mirrors of this location).
== Manual Pages
As with almost all UNIX(R) like operating systems, FreeBSD comes with a set of on-line manual pages, accessed through the man:man[1] command or through the http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi[hypertext manual pages gateway] on the FreeBSD Web site. In general, the manual pages provide information on the different commands and APIs available to the FreeBSD user.
In some cases, manual pages are written to give information on particular topics. Notable examples of such manual pages are man:tuning[7] (a guide to performance tuning), man:security[7] (an introduction to FreeBSD security), and man:style[9] (a style guide to kernel coding).
== Books and Articles
Two highly-useful collections of FreeBSD-related information, maintained by the FreeBSD Project, are the FreeBSD Handbook and FreeBSD FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions document). On-line versions of the link:{handbook}[Handbook] and link:{faq}[FAQ] are always available from the http://www.FreeBSD.org/docs/[FreeBSD Documentation page] or its mirrors. If you install the `doc` distribution set, you can use a Web browser to read the Handbook and FAQ locally. In particular, note that the Handbook contains a step-by-step guide to installing FreeBSD.
A number of on-line books and articles, also maintained by the FreeBSD Project, cover more-specialized, FreeBSD-related topics. This material spans a wide range of topics, from effective use of the mailing lists, to dual-booting FreeBSD with other operating systems, to guidelines for new committers. Like the Handbook and FAQ, these documents are available from the FreeBSD Documentation Page or in the `doc` distribution set.
A listing of other books and documents about FreeBSD can be found in the link:{handbook}#bibliography[bibliography] of the FreeBSD Handbook. Because of FreeBSD's strong UNIX(R) heritage, many other articles and books written for UNIX(R) systems are applicable as well, some of which are also listed in the bibliography.
[[acknowledgements]]
== Acknowledgments
FreeBSD represents the cumulative work of many hundreds, if not thousands, of individuals from around the world who have worked countless hours to bring about this snapshot. For a complete list of FreeBSD developers and contributors, please see link:{contributors}["Contributors to FreeBSD"] on the FreeBSD Web site or any of its mirrors.
Special thanks also go to the many thousands of FreeBSD users and testers all over the world, without whom this snapshot simply would not have been possible.

</div>
</div>
<p>You can use FTP to retrieve FreeBSD and any or all of its
optional packages from <a class="ulink" href=
"ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/" target="_top">ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/</a>,
which is the official FreeBSD release site, or any of its
<span class="quote">“<span class=
"quote">mirrors</span>”</span>.</p>
<p>Lists of locations that mirror FreeBSD can be found in the
<a class="ulink" href=
"http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mirrors-ftp.html"
target="_top">FTP Sites</a> section of the Handbook. Finding a
close (in networking terms) mirror from which to download the
distribution is highly recommended.</p>
<p>Additional mirror sites are always welcome. Contact <code class=
"email">&lt;<a xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/transitional"
class="email" href=
"mailto:freebsd-admin@FreeBSD.org">freebsd-admin@FreeBSD.org</a>&gt;</code>
for more details on becoming an official mirror site. You can also
find useful information for mirror sites at the <a class="ulink"
href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/hubs/"
target="_top">Mirroring FreeBSD</a> article.</p>
<p>Mirrors generally contain the ISO images generally used to
create a CDROM of a FreeBSD release. They usually also contain
floppy disk images (for applicable platforms), as well as the files
necessary to do an installation over the network. Finally mirrors
sites usually contain a set of packages for the most current
release.</p>

"http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current" target=
"_top">FreeBSD-CURRENT mailing list</a>, in order to keep abreast
of recent developments and changes that may affect the way you use
and maintain the system.</p>
<p>Being a largely-volunteer effort, the FreeBSD Project is always
happy to have extra hands willing to help—there are already far
more desired enhancements than there is time to implement them. To
contact the developers on technical matters, or with offers of
help, please send mail to the <a class="ulink" href=
"http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers" target=

<p>Please note that these mailing lists can experience <span class=

have slow or expensive mail access, or are only interested in
keeping up with major FreeBSD events, you may find it preferable to
subscribe instead to the <a class="ulink" href=

target="_top">FreeBSD announcements mailing list</a>.</p>
<p>All of the mailing lists can be freely joined by anyone wishing
to do so. Visit the <a class="ulink" href=

Mailman Info Page</a>. This will give you more information on
joining the various lists, accessing archives, etc. There are a

<p>As with almost all <span class="trademark">UNIX</span>® like
operating systems, FreeBSD comes with a set of on-line manual

"http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=man&amp;amp;sektion=1"><span class="citerefentry">

through the <a class="ulink" href=
"http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi" target="_top">hypertext manual
pages gateway</a> on the FreeBSD Web site. In general, the manual
pages provide information on the different commands and APIs
available to the FreeBSD user.</p>
<p>In some cases, manual pages are written to give information on
particular topics. Notable examples of such manual pages are
<a class="citerefentry" href=

<p>Two highly-useful collections of FreeBSD-related information,
maintained by the FreeBSD Project, are the FreeBSD Handbook and

<code class="filename">doc</code> distribution set, you can use a
Web browser to read the Handbook and FAQ locally. In particular,
note that the Handbook contains a step-by-step guide to installing
FreeBSD.</p>
<p>A number of on-line books and articles, also maintained by the
FreeBSD Project, cover more-specialized, FreeBSD-related topics.
This material spans a wide range of topics, from effective use of
the mailing lists, to dual-booting FreeBSD with other operating
systems, to guidelines for new committers. Like the Handbook and
FAQ, these documents are available from the FreeBSD Documentation
Page or in the <code class="filename">doc</code> distribution
set.</p>

= FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE Announcement
include::shared/en/urls.adoc[]
The FreeBSD Release Engineering Team is pleased to announce the availability of FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE. This is the fourth release of the stable/9 branch, which improves on the stability of FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE and introduces some new features.
Some of the highlights:
* The zfs(8) filesystem has been updated to support the bookmarks feature.
* The uname(1) utility has been updated to include the -U and -K flags, which print the __FreeBSD_version for the running userland and kernel, respectively.
* The fetch(3) library has been updated to support SNI (Server Name Identification), allowing to use virtual hosts on HTTPS.
* Several updates to gcc(1) have been imported from Google.
* The hastctl(8) utility has been updated to output the current queue sizes.
* The protect(1) command has been added, which allows exempting processes from being killed when swap is exhausted.
* The etcupdate(8) utility, a tool for managing updates to files in /etc, has been merged from head/.
* A new shared library directory, /usr/lib/private, has been added for internal-use shared libraries.
* OpenPAM has been updated to Nummularia (20130907).
* A new flag, "onifconsole" has been added to /etc/ttys. This allows the system to provide a login prompt via serial console if the device is an active kernel console, otherwise it is equivalent to off.
* Sendmail has been updated to version 8.14.9.
* BIND has been updated to version 9.9.5.
* The xz(1) utility has been updated to a post-5.0.5 snapshot.
* OpenSSH has been updated to version 6.6p1.
* OpenSSL has been updated to version 0.9.8za.
For a complete list of new features and known problems, please see the online release notes and errata list, available at:
* `https://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.3R/relnotes/`
* `https://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.3R/errata/`
For more information about FreeBSD release engineering activities, please see:
* `https://www.FreeBSD.org/releng/`
== Availability
FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE is now available for the amd64, i386, ia64, powerpc, powerpc64, and sparc64 architectures.
FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE can be installed from bootable ISO images or over the network. Some architectures also support installing from a USB memory stick. The required files can be downloaded via FTP as described in the section below. While some of the smaller FTP mirrors may not carry all architectures, they will all generally contain the more common ones such as amd64 and i386.
SHA256 and MD5 hashes for the release ISO and memory stick images are included at the bottom of this message.
A PGP-signed version of this announcement is available at:
* https://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.3R/announce.asc
The purpose of the images provided as part of the release are as follows:
dvd1::
This contains everything necessary to install the base FreeBSD operating system, the documentation, and a small set of pre-built packages aimed at getting a graphical workstation up and running. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based rescue mode. This should be all you need if you can burn and use DVD-sized media.
disc1::
This contains the base FreeBSD operating system. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based rescue mode. There are no pre-built packages.
bootonly::
This supports booting a machine using the CDROM drive but does not contain the installation distribution sets for installing FreeBSD from the CD itself. You would need to perform a network based install (e.g. from an FTP server) after booting from the CD.
memstick::
This can be written to an USB memory stick (flash drive) and used to do an install on machines capable of booting off USB drives. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based rescue mode. There are no pre-built packages.
+
As one example of how to use the memstick image, assuming the USB drive appears as /dev/da0 on your machine something like this should work:
+
....
# dd if=FreeBSD-9.3-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img of=/dev/da0 bs=10240 conv=sync
....
+
Be careful to make sure you get the target (of=) correct.
mini-memstick::
This can be written to an USB memory stick (flash drive) and used to boot a machine, but does not contain the installation distribution sets on the medium itself, similar to the bootonly image. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based rescue mode. There are no pre-built packages.
+
As one example of how to use the mini-memstick image, assuming the USB drive appears as /dev/da0 on your machine something like this should work:
+
....
# dd if=FreeBSD-9.3-RELEASE-amd64-mini-memstick.img of=/dev/da0 bs=10240 conv=sync
....
+
Be careful to make sure you get the target (of=) correct.
FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE can also be purchased on CD-ROM or DVD from several vendors. One of the vendors that will be offering FreeBSD 9.3-based products is:
* FreeBSD Mall, Inc.`https://www.freebsdmall.com`
== FTP
FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE may be downloaded via ftp from the following site:
* `ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ISO-IMAGES/9.3/`
However before trying this site, please check your regional mirror(s) first by going to:
* `ftp://ftp.<your_country_code>.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD`
Any additional mirror sites will be labeled ftp2, ftp3 and so on.
More information about FreeBSD mirror sites can be found at:
* `https://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mirrors-ftp.html`
For instructions on installing FreeBSD or updating an existing machine to 9.3-RELEASE please see:
* `https://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.3R/installation/`
== Support
FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE will be supported until January 1, 2017. The End-of-Life dates can be found at:
* `https://www.FreeBSD.org/security/`
== Other Projects Based on FreeBSD
There are many "third party" Projects based on FreeBSD. The Projects range from re-packaging FreeBSD into a more "novice friendly" distribution to making FreeBSD available on Amazon's EC2 infrastructure. For more information about these Third Party Projects see:
* `https://wiki.FreeBSD.org/3rdPartyProjects`
== Acknowledgments
Many companies donated equipment, network access, or man-hours to support the release engineering activities for FreeBSD 9.3 including The FreeBSD Foundation, Yahoo!, NetApp, Internet Systems Consortium, ByteMark Hosting, Sentex Communications, New York Internet, Juniper Networks, NLNet Labs, iXsystems, and Yandex.

<div id="contentwrap"><h1>FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE Announcement</h1>
<p>The FreeBSD Release Engineering Team is pleased to announce the
availability of FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE. This is the fourth
release of the stable/9 branch, which improves on the
stability of FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE and introduces some new
features.</p>
<p>Some of the highlights:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>The zfs(8) filesystem has been updated to support the
bookmarks feature.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The uname(1) utility has been updated to include the -U and
-K flags, which print the __FreeBSD_version for the running
userland and kernel, respectively.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The fetch(3) library has been updated to support SNI
(Server Name Identification), allowing to use virtual hosts
on HTTPS.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Several updates to gcc(1) have been imported from
Google.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The hastctl(8) utility has been updated to output the
current queue sizes.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The protect(1) command has been added, which allows
exempting processes from being killed when swap is
exhausted.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The etcupdate(8) utility, a tool for managing updates to
files in /etc, has been merged from head/.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>A new shared library directory, /usr/lib/private, has been
added for internal-use shared libraries.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>OpenPAM has been updated to Nummularia (20130907).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>A new flag, "onifconsole" has been added to /etc/ttys. This
allows the system to provide a login prompt via serial
console if the device is an active kernel console, otherwise
it is equivalent to off.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Sendmail has been updated to version 8.14.9.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>BIND has been updated to version 9.9.5.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The xz(1) utility has been updated to a post-5.0.5
snapshot.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>OpenSSH has been updated to version 6.6p1.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>OpenSSL has been updated to version 0.9.8za.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>For a complete list of new features and known problems, please
see the online release notes and errata list, available at:</p>

<h2 id="availability">Availability</h2>
<p>FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE is now available for the amd64, i386,
ia64, powerpc, powerpc64, and sparc64 architectures.</p>
<p>FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE can be installed from bootable
ISO images or over the network. Some architectures also support
installing from a USB memory stick. The required files can be
downloaded via FTP as described in the section below. While
some of the smaller FTP mirrors may not carry all architectures,
they will all generally contain the more common ones such as
amd64 and i386.</p>
<p>SHA256 and MD5 hashes for the release ISO and memory stick
images are included at the bottom of this message.</p>
<p>A PGP-signed version of this announcement is available at:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<a href="https://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.3R/announce.asc" shape="rect">https://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.3R/announce.asc</a>
</li>
</ul>
<p>The purpose of the images provided as part of the release are
as follows:</p>
<dl>
<dt>dvd1</dt>
<dd>
<p>This contains everything necessary to install the base FreeBSD
operating system, the documentation, and a small set of
pre-built packages aimed at getting a graphical workstation
up and running. It also supports booting into a "livefs"
based rescue mode. This should be all you need if you can
burn and use DVD-sized media.</p>
</dd>
<dt>disc1</dt>
<dd>
<p>This contains the base FreeBSD operating system. It also
supports booting into a "livefs" based rescue mode. There
are no pre-built packages.</p>
</dd>
<dt>bootonly</dt>
<dd>
<p>This supports booting a machine using the CDROM drive but
does not contain the installation distribution sets for
installing FreeBSD from the CD itself. You would need to
perform a network based install (e.g. from an FTP server)
after booting from the CD.</p>
</dd>
<dt>memstick</dt>
<dd>
<p>This can be written to an USB memory stick (flash drive)
and used to do an install on machines capable of booting off
USB drives. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based
rescue mode. There are no pre-built packages.</p>
<p>As one example of how to use the memstick image, assuming
the USB drive appears as /dev/da0 on your machine something
like this should work:</p>
<pre xml:space="preserve">
# dd if=FreeBSD-9.3-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img of=/dev/da0 bs=10240 conv=sync
</pre>
<p>Be careful to make sure you get the target (of=)
correct.</p>
</dd>
<dt>mini-memstick</dt>
<dd>
<p>This can be written to an USB memory stick (flash drive)
and used to boot a machine, but does not contain the
installation distribution sets on the medium itself, similar
to the bootonly image. It also supports booting into
a "livefs" based rescue mode. There are no pre-built
packages.</p>
<p>As one example of how to use the mini-memstick image,
assuming the USB drive appears as /dev/da0 on your machine
something like this should work:</p>
<pre xml:space="preserve">
# dd if=FreeBSD-9.3-RELEASE-amd64-mini-memstick.img of=/dev/da0 bs=10240 conv=sync
</pre>
<p>Be careful to make sure you get the target (of=)
correct.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE can also be purchased on CD-ROM
or DVD from several vendors. One of the vendors that will be
offering FreeBSD 9.3-based products is:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>FreeBSD Mall, Inc.<tt><a href="https://www.freebsdmall.com/" shape="rect">https://www.freebsdmall.com</a></tt></p></li>
</ul>
<h2>FTP</h2>
<p>FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE may be downloaded via ftp from
the following site:</p>
<ul>
<li><p><tt><a href="ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ISO-IMAGES/9.3/" shape="rect">ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ISO-IMAGES/9.3/</a></tt></p></li>

= FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE Errata
== Abstract
This document lists errata items for FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE, containing significant information discovered after the release or too late in the release cycle to be otherwise included in the release documentation. This information includes security advisories, as well as news relating to the software or documentation that could affect its operation or usability. An up-to-date version of this document should always be consulted before installing this version of FreeBSD.
This errata document for FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE will be maintained until the EoL of FreeBSD 9.3-STABLE.

* <<security, Security Advisories>>
* <<errata, Errata Notices>>
* <<late-news, Late-Breaking News>>
[[intro]]
== Introduction
This errata document contains "late-breaking news" about FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE Before installing this version, it is important to consult this document to learn about any post-release discoveries or problems that may already have been found and fixed.
Any version of this errata document actually distributed with the release (for example, on a CDROM distribution) will be out of date by definition, but other copies are kept updated on the Internet and should be consulted as the "current errata" for this release. These other copies of the errata are located at `https://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/`, plus any sites which keep up-to-date mirrors of this location.
Source and binary snapshots of FreeBSD 9.3-STABLE also contain up-to-date copies of this document (as of the time of the snapshot).
For a list of all FreeBSD CERT security advisories, see `https://www.FreeBSD.org/security/`.
[[security]]
== Security Advisories
Problems described in the following security advisories have been fixed in 9.3-RELEASE. For more information, consult the individual advisories available from `http://security.FreeBSD.org/`.

= FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE Installation Instructions
== Abstract
This article gives some brief instructions on installing FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE and upgrading the systems running earlier releases.
'''''
Table of Contents
* <<install, Installing FreeBSD>>
* <<upgrade, Upgrading FreeBSD>>
[[install]]
== Installing FreeBSD
The link:{handbook}#bsdinstall[Installing FreeBSD] chapter of the link:{handbook}[FreeBSD Handbook] provides more in-depth information about the installation program itself, including a guided walk-through with screenshots.
[[upgrade]]
== Upgrading FreeBSD
If you are upgrading from a previous release of FreeBSD, please read http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/9.3R/relnotes/#upgrade[upgrading section in the Release Notes] for notable incompatibilities carefully.
== Upgrading from Source
The procedure for doing a source code based update is described in `Synchronizing Source` and `Rebuilding World`.
For SVN use the `releng/9.3` branch which will be where any upcoming Security Advisories or Errata Notices will be applied.
== Upgrading Using "FreeBSD Update"
The man:freebsd-update[8] utility supports binary upgrades of i386 and amd64 systems running earlier FreeBSD releases. Systems running `8.4-RELEASE`, `9.[12]-RELEASE`, `9.3-BETA*`, or `9.3-RC*` can upgrade as follows:
First, ensure that your current system is up to date; a change was recently made to man:freebsd-update[8] (Errata Notice http://security.FreeBSD.org/advisories/FreeBSD-EN-12:01.freebsd-update.asc[FreeBSD-EN-12:01.freebsd-update]) which is needed in order to upgrade to FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE.
[source,screen]
----
# freebsd-update fetch
# freebsd-update install
----
Now the man:freebsd-update[8] utility can fetch bits belonging to 9.3-RELEASE. During this process man:freebsd-update[8] will ask for help in merging configuration files.
[source,screen]
----
# freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.3-RELEASE
----
Due to changes in the way that FreeBSD is packaged on the release media, two complications may arise in this process if upgrading from FreeBSD 8.x:
[arabic]
. The FreeBSD, which previously could appear in either `/boot/kernel` or `/boot/GENERIC`, now only appears as `/boot/kernel`. As a result, any kernel appearing in `/boot/GENERIC` will be deleted. Please carefully read the output printed by man:freebsd-update[8] and confirm that an updated kernel will be placed into `/boot/kernel` before proceeding beyond this point.
. The FreeBSD source tree in `/usr/src` (if present) will be deleted. (Normally the man:freebsd-update[8] utility will update a source tree, but in this case the changes in release packaging result in the man:freebsd-update[8] utility not recognizing that the source tree from the old release and the source tree from the new release correspond to the same part of FreeBSD.)
[source,screen]
----
# freebsd-update install
----
The system must now be rebooted with the newly installed kernel before the non-kernel components are updated.
[source,screen]
----
# shutdown -r now
----
After rebooting, man:freebsd-update[8] needs to be run again to install the new userland components:
[source,screen]
----
# freebsd-update install
----
At this point, users of systems being upgraded from FreeBSD 8.4-RELEASE or earlier will be prompted by man:freebsd-update[8] to rebuild all third-party applications (e.g., ports installed from the ports tree) due to updates in system libraries.
After updating installed third-party applications (and again, only if man:freebsd-update[8] printed a message indicating that this was necessary), run man:freebsd-update[8] again so that it can delete the old (no longer used) system libraries:
[source,screen]
----
# freebsd-update install
----
Finally, reboot into 9.3-RELEASE
[source,screen]
----
# shutdown -r now
----

[[intro]]
== Introduction
This distribution is a release of FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE, the latest point along the 9.3-STABLE branch.
== About FreeBSD
FreeBSD is an operating system based on 4.4 BSD Lite for AMD64 and Intel EM64T based PC hardware (amd64), Intel, AMD, Cyrix or NexGen "x86" based PC hardware (i386), Intel Itanium Processor based computers (ia64), NEC PC-9801/9821 series PCs and compatibles (pc98), and UltraSPARC(R) machines (sparc64). Versions for the ARM(R) (arm), MIPS(R) (mips), and PowerPC(R) (powerpc) architectures are currently under development as well. FreeBSD works with a wide variety of peripherals and configurations and can be used for everything from software development to games to Internet Service Provision.
This release of FreeBSD contains everything you need to run such a system, including full source code for the kernel and all utilities in the base distribution. With the source distribution installed, you can literally recompile the entire system from scratch with one command, making it ideal for students, researchers, or users who simply want to see how it all works.
A large collection of third-party ported software (the "Ports Collection") is also provided to make it easy to obtain and install all your favorite traditional UNIX(R) utilities for FreeBSD. Each "port" consists of a set of scripts to retrieve, configure, build, and install a piece of software, with a single command. Over 24,000 ports, from editors to programming languages to graphical applications, make FreeBSD a powerful and comprehensive operating environment that extends far beyond what's provided by many commercial versions of UNIX(R). Most ports are also available as pre-compiled "packages", which can be quickly installed from the installation program.
== Target Audience
This release of FreeBSD is suitable for all users. It has undergone a period of testing and quality assurance checking to ensure the highest reliability and dependability.
[[obtain]]
== Obtaining FreeBSD
FreeBSD may be obtained in a variety of ways. This section focuses on those ways that are primarily useful for obtaining a complete FreeBSD distribution, rather than updating an existing installation.
== CDROM and DVD
FreeBSD -RELEASE distributions may be ordered on CDROM or DVD from several publishers. This is frequently the most convenient way to obtain FreeBSD for new installations, as it provides a convenient way to quickly reinstall the system if necessary. Some distributions include some of the optional, precompiled "packages" from the FreeBSD Ports Collection, or other extra material.
A list of the CDROM and DVD publishers known to the project are listed in the link:{handbook}#mirrors["Obtaining FreeBSD"] appendix to the Handbook.
== FTP
You can use FTP to retrieve FreeBSD and any or all of its optional packages from `ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/`, which is the official FreeBSD release site, or any of its "mirrors".
Lists of locations that mirror FreeBSD can be found in the link:{handbook}#mirrors-ftp[FTP Sites] section of the Handbook. Finding a close (in networking terms) mirror from which to download the distribution is highly recommended.
Additional mirror sites are always welcome. Contact `<freebsd-admin@FreeBSD.org>` for more details on becoming an official mirror site. You can also find useful information for mirror sites at the link:{hubs}[Mirroring FreeBSD] article.
Mirrors generally contain the ISO images generally used to create a CDROM of a FreeBSD release. They usually also contain floppy disk images (for applicable platforms), as well as the files necessary to do an installation over the network. Finally mirrors sites usually contain a set of packages for the most current release.
[[contacting]]
== Contacting the FreeBSD Project
== Email and Mailing Lists
For any questions or general technical support issues, please send mail to the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions[FreeBSD general questions mailing list].
If you're tracking the 9.3-STABLE development efforts, you _must_ join the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable[FreeBSD-STABLE mailing list], in order to keep abreast of recent developments and changes that may affect the way you use and maintain the system.
Being a largely-volunteer effort, the FreeBSD Project is always happy to have extra hands willing to help—there are already far more desired enhancements than there is time to implement them. To contact the developers on technical matters, or with offers of help, please send mail to the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers[FreeBSD technical discussions mailing list].
Please note that these mailing lists can experience _significant_ amounts of traffic. If you have slow or expensive mail access, or are only interested in keeping up with major FreeBSD events, you may find it preferable to subscribe instead to the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-announce[FreeBSD announcements mailing list].
All of the mailing lists can be freely joined by anyone wishing to do so. Visit the http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/[FreeBSD Mailman Info Page]. This will give you more information on joining the various lists, accessing archives, etc. There are a number of mailing lists targeted at special interest groups not mentioned here; more information can be obtained either from the Mailman pages or the link:../../../../support/#mailing-list[mailing lists section] of the FreeBSD Web site.
== Important:
Do _not_ send email to the lists asking to be subscribed. Use the Mailman interface instead.
== Submitting Problem Reports
Suggestions, bug reports and contributions of code are always valued—please do not hesitate to report any problems you may find. Bug reports with attached fixes are of course even more welcome.
The method to submit bug reports from a machine with Internet mail connectivity is to use the https://bugs.freebsd.org/submit/[Bugzilla web interface]. "Problem Reports" (PRs) submitted in this way will be filed and their progress tracked; the FreeBSD developers will do their best to respond to all reported bugs as soon as possible. A https://bugs.freebsd.org/search/[search interface] of all active PRs is available; this list is useful to find what potential problems other users have encountered.
Note that man:send-pr[1] is a stub shell script, and instructs to use the Bugzilla interface.
For more information, link:{problem-reports}["Writing FreeBSD Problem Reports"], available on the FreeBSD Web site, has a number of helpful hints on writing and submitting effective problem reports.

== Further Reading
There are many sources of information about FreeBSD; some are included with this distribution, while others are available on-line or in print versions.
[[release-docs]]
== Release Documentation
A number of other files provide more specific information about this release distribution. These files are provided in various formats. Most distributions will include both ASCII text (`.TXT`) and HTML (`.HTM`) renditions. Some distributions may also include other formats such as Portable Document Format (`.PDF`).
* `README.TXT`: This file, which gives some general information about FreeBSD as well as some cursory notes about obtaining a distribution.
* `RELNOTES.TXT`: The release notes, showing what's new and different in FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE compared to the previous release (FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE).
* `HARDWARE.TXT`: The hardware compatibility list, showing devices with which FreeBSD has been tested and is known to work.
* `ERRATA.TXT`: Release errata. Late-breaking, post-release information can be found in this file, which is principally applicable to releases (as opposed to snapshots). It is important to consult this file before installing a release of FreeBSD, as it contains the latest information on problems which have been found and fixed since the release was created.
== Note:
It is extremely important to read the errata for any given release before installing it, to learn about any "late-breaking news" or post-release problems. The errata file accompanying each release (most likely right next to this file) is already out of date by definition, but other copies are kept updated on the Internet and should be consulted as the "current errata" for this release. These other copies of the errata are located at `the FreeBSD releases page` (as well as any sites which keep up-to-date mirrors of this location).
== Manual Pages
As with almost all UNIX(R) like operating systems, FreeBSD comes with a set of on-line manual pages, accessed through the man:man[1] command or through the http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi[hypertext manual pages gateway] on the FreeBSD Web site. In general, the manual pages provide information on the different commands and APIs available to the FreeBSD user.
In some cases, manual pages are written to give information on particular topics. Notable examples of such manual pages are man:tuning[7] (a guide to performance tuning), man:security[7] (an introduction to FreeBSD security), and man:style[9] (a style guide to kernel coding).
== Books and Articles
Two highly-useful collections of FreeBSD-related information, maintained by the FreeBSD Project, are the FreeBSD Handbook and FreeBSD FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions document). On-line versions of the link:{handbook}[Handbook] and link:{faq}[FAQ] are always available from the link:../../../../docs/[FreeBSD Documentation page] or its mirrors. If you install the `doc` distribution set, you can use a Web browser to read the Handbook and FAQ locally. In particular, note that the Handbook contains a step-by-step guide to installing FreeBSD.
A number of on-line books and articles, also maintained by the FreeBSD Project, cover more-specialized, FreeBSD-related topics. This material spans a wide range of topics, from effective use of the mailing lists, to dual-booting FreeBSD with other operating systems, to guidelines for new committers. Like the Handbook and FAQ, these documents are available from the FreeBSD Documentation Page or in the `doc` distribution set.
A listing of other books and documents about FreeBSD can be found in the link:{handbook}#bibliography[bibliography] of the FreeBSD Handbook. Because of FreeBSD's strong UNIX(R) heritage, many other articles and books written for UNIX(R) systems are applicable as well, some of which are also listed in the bibliography.
[[acknowledgements]]
== Acknowledgments
FreeBSD represents the cumulative work of many hundreds, if not thousands, of individuals from around the world who have worked countless hours to bring about this release. For a complete list of FreeBSD developers and contributors, please see link:{contributors}["Contributors to FreeBSD"] on the FreeBSD Web site or any of its mirrors.
Special thanks also go to the many thousands of FreeBSD users and testers all over the world, without whom this release simply would not have been possible.

peripherals and configurations and can be used for everything
from software development to games to Internet Service
Provision. </p><p xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/transitional">This release of FreeBSD contains everything you need to run
such a system, including full source code for the kernel and
all utilities in the base distribution. With the source

students, researchers, or users who simply want to see how it
all works. </p><p xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/transitional">A large collection of third-party ported software (the
<span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="quote">&#8220;<span class="quote">Ports Collection</span>&#8221;</span>) is also provided to make it
easy to obtain and install all your favorite traditional <span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="trademark">UNIX</span>®
utilities for FreeBSD. Each <span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="quote">&#8220;<span class="quote">port</span>&#8221;</span> consists of a
set of scripts to retrieve, configure, build, and install a
piece of software, with a single command. Over 24,000
ports, from editors to programming languages to graphical
applications, make FreeBSD a powerful and comprehensive operating
environment that extends far beyond what's provided by many
commercial versions of <span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="trademark">UNIX</span>®. Most ports are also available as
pre-compiled <span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="quote">&#8220;<span class="quote">packages</span>&#8221;</span>, which can be quickly

= FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE Release Notes
== Abstract
The release notes for FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE contain a summary of the changes made to the FreeBSD base system on the 9.3-STABLE development line. This document lists applicable security advisories that were issued since the last release, as well as significant changes to the FreeBSD kernel and userland. Some brief remarks on upgrading are also presented.

* <<new, What's New>>
* <<upgrade, Upgrading from Previous Releases of FreeBSD>>
[[intro]]
== Introduction
This document contains the release notes for FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE. It describes recently added, changed, or deleted features of FreeBSD. It also provides some notes on upgrading from previous versions of FreeBSD.
This distribution of FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE is a release distribution. It can be found at `http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/` or any of its mirrors. More information on obtaining this (or other) release distributions of FreeBSD can be found in the link:{handbook}#mirrors["Obtaining FreeBSD" appendix] to the link:{handbook}[FreeBSD Handbook].
All users are encouraged to consult the release errata before installing FreeBSD. The errata document is updated with "late-breaking" information discovered late in the release cycle or after the release. Typically, it contains information on known bugs, security advisories, and corrections to documentation. An up-to-date copy of the errata for FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE can be found on the FreeBSD Web site.
[[new]]
== What's New
This section describes the most user-visible new or changed features in FreeBSD since 9.2-RELEASE.
Typical release note items document recent security advisories issued after 9.2-RELEASE, new drivers or hardware support, new commands or options, major bug fixes, or contributed software upgrades. They may also list changes to major ports/packages or release engineering practices. Clearly the release notes cannot list every single change made to FreeBSD between releases; this document focuses primarily on security advisories, user-visible changes, and major architectural improvements.
[[security]]
== Security Advisories
Problems described in the following security advisories have been fixed. For more information, consult the individual advisories available from `http://security.FreeBSD.org/`.

[[ports]]
== Ports and Packages
== Important:
Note to FreeBSD desktop users: please read this section carefully, especially before upgrading ports that depend on Xorg.
In April 2014, the FreeBSD Ports collection switched to a newer version of Xorg that supports KMS (Kernel Mode Setting).
Users upgrading from earlier versions of FreeBSD 9.x or FreeBSD 8.x should be aware of several things regarding Xorg:
* When applications are built from the FreeBSD Ports Collection or installed from the `new_xorg` man:pkg[8] repository, the newer, KMS-aware version of Xorg is used.
* The KMS version of Xorg does not switch back to text mode after leaving the X desktop environment, and the system console will not be visible. The new man:vt[4] console driver supports graphic consoles and keeps the console visible after X has exited. The man:vt[4] driver must be compiled into the kernel. A `VT` kernel configuration example file is included in 9.3-RELEASE, but is not compiled or enabled by default. See man:vt[4] and the https://wiki.freebsd.org/VT[vt(4) wiki page] for additional information.
* Packages for KDE4 are not available in the default (`latest`) man:pkg[8] repository, however are available in the `new_xorg` repository. See the https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-announce/2014-July/001570.html[announcement email] for details on how to use the `new_xorg` repository.
+
The older Xorg that does not support KMS can still be installed from the `latest` upstream man:pkg[8] repository and the packages included on the 9.3-RELEASE DVD.
+
However, it is important to note that some newer applications require the newer Xorg, and will not work with the old version. The newer [Xorg is recommended, and should be used unless not compatible with legacy graphics cards.
+
To continue using the old version of Xorg when building from the FreeBSD Ports Collection, set `WITHOUT_NEW_XORG=yes` in man:make.conf[5].
[releng]]
== Release Engineering and Integration
As part of the release build, the man:etcupdate[8] utility will bootstrap the system, allowing man:etcupdate[8] to work after the first upgrade of a system. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=260891[r260891]
The `release.sh` script and release `Makefile` have been updated to use man:pkg[7] to populate the dvd installation medium. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=262879[r262879] (Sponsored by The FreeBSD Foundation)
The man:services.mkdb[8] utility has been updated to support multiple byte orders. Similar to man:cap_mkdb[1], the `services.db` will be created with proper endinanness as part of cross-architecture release builds. http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=263028[r263028]
[[upgrade]]
== Upgrading from Previous Releases of FreeBSD
== Upgrading Using man:freebsd-update[8] or a Source-Based Procedure
[amd64,i386] Binary upgrades between RELEASE versions (and snapshots of the various security branches) are supported using the man:freebsd-update[8] utility. The binary upgrade procedure will update unmodified userland utilities, as well as an unmodified `GENERIC` kernel, distributed as a part of an official FreeBSD release. The man:freebsd-update[8] utility requires that the host being upgraded have Internet connectivity.
Source-based upgrades (those based on recompiling the FreeBSD base system from source code) from previous versions are supported using to the instructions in `/usr/src/UPDATING`.
For more specific information about upgrading instructions, see link:../installation/[FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE Installation Instructions].
== Important:
Upgrading FreeBSD should only be attempted after backing up _all_ data and configuration files.
== User-Visible Incompatibilities
FreeBSD 9.0 and later versions have several configuration incompatibilities with earlier versions of FreeBSD. These differences are best understood before upgrading. _Please read this section and the http://www.freebsd.org/releases/9.0R/relnotes-detailed.html#UPGRADE[Upgrading Section in 9.0-RELEASE Release Notes] carefully before submitting a problem report and/or posting a question to the FreeBSD mailing lists._
