setting. It can be built by setting the WITH_ICONV knob. While this
knob is unset, the library part, the binaries, the header file and
the metadata files will not be built or installed so it makes no impact
on the system if left turned off.
This work is based on the iconv implementation in NetBSD but a great
number of improvements and feature additions have been included:
- Some utilities have been added. There is a conversion table generator,
which can compare conversion tables to reference data generated by
GNU libiconv. This helps ensuring conversion compatibility.
- UTF-16 surrogate support and some endianness issues have been fixed.
- The rather chaotic Makefiles to build metadata have been refactored
and cleaned up, now it is easy to read and it is also easier to add
support for new encodings.
- A bunch of new encodings and encoding aliases have been added.
- Support for 1->2, 1->3 and 1->4 mappings, which is needed for
transliterating with flying accents as GNU does, like "u.
- Lots of warnings have been fixed, the major part of the code is
now WARNS=6 clean.
- New section 1 and section 5 manual pages have been added.
- Some GNU-specific calls have been implemented:
iconvlist(), iconvctl(), iconv_canonicalize(), iconv_open_into()
- Support for GNU's //IGNORE suffix has been added.
- The "-" argument for stdin is now recognized in iconv(1) as per POSIX.
- The Big5 conversion module has been fixed.
- The iconv.h header files is supposed to be compatible with the
GNU version, i.e. sources should build with base iconv.h and
GNU libiconv. It also includes a macro magic to deal with the
char ** and const char ** incompatibility.
- GNU compatibility: "" or "char" means the current local
encoding in use
- Various cleanups and style(9) fixes.

As it was pointed out by Alan Cox, that no longer serves its purpose with
the modern UMA allocator compared to the old one used in 4.x days.
The removal of sysctl eliminates max_proc_mmap type overflow leading to
the broken mmap(2) seen with large amount of physical memory on arches
with factually unbound KVA space (such as amd64). It was found that
slightly less than 256GB of physmem was enough to trigger the overflow.

ctfconvert will corrupt object files that are compiled with -g, if it is
not run with -g itself.
To fix it, remove -g from CFLAGS in lib/librt/Makefile. If you need to
compile this library with debug info, use DEBUG_FLAGS=-g instead, which
will work correctly, even when using WITH_CTF.
The existing implementation of bzero incorrectly clears bytes when the
start address is not word aligned. Fix it by using REG_SHI macro which
works on both 32 and 64 bit.

Most of the ports I broke when I imported utmpx, were simple management

manually.
Add a small tool called utxrm(8), which allows you to remove an entry
from the utmpx database by hand. This is useful when a login daemon
crashes or fails to remove the entry during shutdown.

Fix a long standing bug, where the procs ticks where assumed to be in
us. Instead, read cpu_tick_frequency from the kernel and use the same
logic to convert runtime. This is still too optimistic in that it
assumes cpu_tick_frequency is available and fixed. Since this function
is only called on crashdumps, I think we can live with that. Testing has
shown the values to be correct for different kern.hz inside Virtualbox.

generated from lib/csu/common/crtbrand.c (which ultimately ends up in
executables and shared libraries, via crt1.o, gcrt1.o or Scrt1.o).
For all arches except sparc, gcc emits the section directive for the
abitag struct in crtbrand.c with a PROGBITS type. However, newer
versions of binutils (after 2.16.90) require the section to be of NOTE
type, to guarantee that the .note.ABI-tag section correctly ends up in
the first page of the final executable.
Unfortunately, there is no clean way to tell gcc to use another section
type, so crtbrand.c (or the C files that include it) must be compiled in
multiple steps:
- Compile the .c file to a .s file.
- Edit the .s file to change the 'progbits' type to 'note', for the section
directive that defines the .note.ABI-tag section.
- Compile the .s file to an object file.
These steps are done in the invididual Makefiles for each applicable arch.
