Firstly, now our read-ahead clustering is on a file descriptor basis and not
on a per-vnode basis. This will allow multiple processes reading the
same file to take advantage of read-ahead clustering. Secondly, there
previously was a problem with large reads still using the ramp-up
algorithm. Of course, that was bogus, and now we read the entire
"chunk" off of the disk in one operation. The read-ahead clustering
algorithm should use less CPU than the previous also (I hope :-)).
NOTE: THAT LKMS MUST BE REBUILT!!!

vm_map_simplify and vm_map_simplify_entry. Make vm_map_simplify_entry
handle wired maps so that we can get rid of vm_map_simplify. Modify
the callers of vm_map_simplify to properly use vm_map_simplify_entry.

has the negative effect of disabling some map optimizations. This
patch defers the creation of the object until it needs to be at fault time.

(which doesn't use the setting at all), but when linking with
recent versions of libncurses, ncurses screws up without it for some reason
(presumably a ncurses bug).
into /etc during the sendmail build. Not for the feint hearted.
(I have been using something like this for some time since I only ever
edit my system's .mc file)
- the .gz files are no longer used as intermediate files, it's in a pipe
now. (gunzip normally deleted them anyway, but this should not hurt)
- I accidently left a -p arg to install from testing. Bruce says it should
be ${COPY} instead, but almost everything else in the tree uses plain -c
anyway.
- Use "LINKS=" or two identical files are installed sepeately instead of
as links (doh!)
- Use "LIB..." instead of "BIN..." for install permissions. Note that we
still use bsd.prog.mk, not bsd.lib.mk because bsd.lib.mk has problems
(it can't install a library unless it compiles it).
- Define LIBCOMPATDIR in Makefile.inc instead of using BINDIR.

just return errors. This removes the need for awful hacks like that in
our build of libtcl which would get link errors when linked static.
John Polstra once mentioned that this was on his "todo" list.
Note that one can use:
cc -Wl,-Bstatic -o foo foo.o
and get an executable that has it's libraries statically linked, but has
a fully functional runtime linker so the executable can call dlopen() and
have it work. (I've tested this)
is still broken - it doesn't restore the floating point state.
2.2-BETA users should disable it using npx0 flags 0x04 the same as
2.2-ALPHA users should have.
- getpwent:
o adjunctbuf should be NUL terminated after copying
o _pw_breakout_yp() needs to know the length of the buffer returned
from YP so it can properly NUL terminate its local buffer.
- getgrent:
o YP buffers should be YPMAXRECORD + 2 bytes long and NUL terminated.
(Previously they were hardcoded to 1024 bytes.)
- getnetgrent:
o YP data should be copied with snprintf(), not sprintf()
These are 2.2 candidates. I will wait a few days to make sure these don't
break anything and then, if there are no objections, move them to the 2.2
branch.
- getservent:
o put _yp_check() proto under #ifdef YP where it belongs
o local YP buffers should be YPMAXRECORD + 2 bytes long and should
be NUL terminated after copying
- gethostbynis:
o local YP buffer should be YPMAXRECORD + 2 bytes long
- getnetbynis:
o local YP buffer should be YPMAXRECORD + 2 bytes long and should
be NUL terminated after copying
- ether_addr:
o local YP buffers should be YPMAXRECORD + 2 bytes long and should
be NUL terminated after copying (in this case it's BUFSIZ + 2 bytes,
but it happens that BUFSIZ == YPMAXRECORD.
- gethostbydns:
o nuke stray 'return(NULL)' in __dns_getanswer() (harmless but looks silly)
These are 2.2 candidates. I will wait a few days to make sure these don't
break anything and then, if there are no objections, move them to the 2.2
branch.
