programs. There is a case during a fork() which can cause a deadlock.
From Tor -
The workaround that consists of setting a flag in the vm map that
indicates that a fork is in progress and using that mark in the page
fault handling to force a revalidation failure. That change will only
affect (pessimize) page fault handling during fork for threaded
(linuxthreads style) applications and applications using aio_*().

call is correct, but it interferes with the massive hack called
vm_map_growstack(). The call will be returned after our stack handling
code is fixed.

"options FFS_EXTATTR". When extended attribute auto-starting
is enabled, FFS will scan the .attribute directory off of the
root of each file system, as it is mounted. If .attribute
exists, EA support will be started for the file system. If
there are files in the directory, FFS will attempt to start
them as attribute backing files for attributes baring the same
name. All attributes are started before access to the file
system is permitted, so this permits race-free enabling of
attributes. For attributes backing support for security
features, such as ACLs, MAC, Capabilities, this is vital, as
it prevents the file system attributes from getting out of
sync as a result of file system operations between mount-time
and the enabling of the extended attribute. The userland
extattrctl tool will still function exactly as previously.
Files must be placed directly in .attribute, which must be
directly off of the file system root: symbolic links are
not permitted. FFS_EXTATTR will continue to be able
to function without FFS_EXTATTR_AUTOSTART for sites that do not
want/require auto-starting. If you're using the UFS_ACL code
available from www.TrustedBSD.org, using FFS_EXTATTR_AUTOSTART
is recommended.
o This support is implemented by adding an invocation of
ufs_extattr_autostart() to ffs_mountfs(). In addition,
several new supporting calls are introduced in
ufs_extattr.c:
ufs_extattr_autostart(): start EAs on the specified mount
ufs_extattr_lookup(): given a directory and filename,
return the vnode for the file.
ufs_extattr_enable_with_open(): invoke ufs_extattr_enable()
after doing the equililent of vn_open()
on the passed file.
ufs_extattr_iterate_directory(): iterate over a directory,
invoking ufs_extattr_lookup() and
ufs_extattr_enable_with_open() on each
entry.
o This feature is not widely tested, and therefore may contain
bugs, caution is advised. Several changes are in the pipeline
for this feature, including breaking out of EA namespaces into
subdirectories of .attribute (this is waiting on the updated
EA API), as well as a per-filesystem flag indicating whether
or not EAs should be auto-started. This is required because
administrators may not want .attribute auto-started on all
file systems, especially if non-administrators have write access
to the root of a file system.

Increase cd_tagval to be 32 bits since it will have to now carry 16
bits of parallel SCSI ATIO handle as well as a normal tag (if any).

Re-arrange the DT limiting code so that we don't end up setting the period

confuse the aic(4) driver.

is transmitted as all ones". This got broken after introduction
of delayed checksums as follows. Some guys (including Jonathan)
think that it is allowed to transmit all ones in place of a zero
checksum for TCP the same way as for UDP. (The discussion still
takes place on -net.) Thus, the 0 -> 0xffff checksum fixup was
first moved from udp_output() (see udp_usrreq.c, 1.64 -> 1.65)
to in_cksum_skip() (see sys/i386/i386/in_cksum.c, 1.17 -> 1.18,
INVERT expression). Besides that I disagree that it is valid for
TCP, there was no real problem until in_cksum.c,v 1.20, where the
in_cksum() was made just a special version of in_cksum_skip().
The side effect was that now every incoming IP datagram failed to
pass the checksum test (in_cksum() returned 0xffff when it should
actually return zero). It was fixed next day in revision 1.21,
by removing the INVERT expression. The latter also broke the
0 -> 0xffff fixup for UDP checksums.

2. Sorts and uniq's the output to only contain single instances of a
given setting. This doesn't mean you still can't have settings which
override one another, that's still possible since it's too much
trouble to do the redundancy checking here.

- spell the abbreviation of 1003.1 as ``POSIX.1''
- fixed the description of -p1003.1-90; it was sold as ISO/IEC 9945-1:1990
- removed -p1003.1b; it only existed as 1003.1b-1993 (-p1003.1b-93), and
is part of 1003.1 since 1003.1-1996.
- replaced -p1003.1g (project) with -p1003.1g-2000 (approved draft)
- changed abbreviation of -isoC from ``ISO C'' to ``ISO C89''
- removed -iso9899 alias for -isoC
- IEC was missing from some names
- added abbreviation for -susv2 (``SUSv2'')
a few cosmetic problems:
o Allow it to work with scripts (see man page or install.cfg file).
o Preserve old softupdates flag across newfs toggles
o Clean up partitioned/labelled flag handling
o Don't ask for MBR choice again if you've already written it out.
o Actually document the new features.
