- Use real <h3> headers to subdivide different subsections.
- Use &base; for release documentation URLs, mainly to make it
simpler to test links without local versions of the release
documentation.
- Sort architectures alphabetically.
- Minor changes to make it simpler to sort architectures.
- Update Early Adopter's Guide links. The document is now 5.X
Migration Guide on 5-STABLE, and is not really applicable to
6-CURRENT at the moment.
- Follow standard FDP markup style more closely for modified parts of
this page.
"required" lists, as well as add a new items with 5.4 in mind:
- Entropy harvesting optimizations are largely implemented and in the 6.x
branch, but not yet ready for 5.x. We'll merge tham after 5.3 to be a
5.4 feature, and keep refining.
- The ACL_MASK override of umask support in UFS punts to 5.4. It violates
the POSIX.1eD17 draft spec, but other implementations have moved in that
direction so we should that also. Didn't happen for 5.3 because I was
working on network stack locking, but will happen for 5.4.
- MAC NFS server support onto the desired list for 5.4. It may well, and
if it does, it will probably be my fault.
- Move busdma for PCI drivers from the 5.3 desired list to the 5.4
required list.
- Add MAC Framework integration with System V IPC to the 5.4 required list;
we have an implementation, but it needs to be merged.
- Add KAME IPSEC w/o Giant to the required list for 5.4.
- Add "all network interface drivers MPSAFE" to the 5.4 desired list. I'd
like for this to happen, but I wouldn't be surprised if we have one or
two ISA 10mbps stragglers come 5.4.
- Add netipx w/o Giant to the desired list for 5.4. I can work on this,
but I'm not set up to test it.
database queries once again, because I've received complaints that the
HTML output mode of the PR query scripts outputs huge, bloated tables
after the style changes I made to beautify HTML output.
This moves all the visual tweaks of the output in a CSS stylesheet and
add a $t_style option to the common cgi-style.pl script. If not set,
the style defaults to empty, but users of cgi-style.pl can set this to
a local CSS style like this:
$t_style="<style type=\"text/css\">...</style>";
or use it to refer from the header of the HTML output to an external
CSS stylesheet.
The HTML output size is substantially reduced now (at least 50% of the
size was caused by many repetitions of style="" attributes), but it's
still larger than the preformatted <pre> output because of all the
<tr> and <td> tags.
- tcp_output() socket buffer locking fixes on the path to 5.x
- accept()/sofree() locking fixes on the path to 5.x (but may not fix
the reported problem?)
- multicast privilege problems
- i4b hangs with SMP
fdisk and bsdlabel have design limitations the prevent them from working
with >2TB, but they don't prevent one from using GPT or raw partitions to
hold large UFS2 filesystems. growfs is still problematic, but a fix is
being tested in HEAD now.
