The big lines are:
NODEV -> NULL
NOUDEV -> NODEV
udev_t -> dev_t
udev2dev() -> findcdev()
Various minor adjustments including handling of userland access to kernel
space struct cdev etc.
socket in LISTEN state happens to be bound to an interface, it will
show up in netstat(1) output even without the -a switch.
As the definition of "sockets used by server processes" is a
difficult one to qualify with regards to UDP, do not change the
output behaviour for UDP sockets.

* Usage goes to stderr, not stdout
* Use correct argument markup
* bsdtar --help no longer exits with an error return code
* ensure that the word "bsdtar" appears in the first
line output from "bsdtar --help" (even if the program is
invoked as "tar")
In particular, scripts can now test for the presence of bsdtar.
For example, in /bin/sh:
if (tar --help 2>&1 | grep bsdtar >/dev/null 2>&1) then \
echo bsdtar; else echo not bsdtar; fi
"machine name" in ntalkd(8) request packets, when the destination
and source are local.
This should make talk(1) use much more pleasant for those security-
conscious individuals who have chosen to bind talkd to "localhost".
Previous to this change, talk(1) would require that the hostname of
the machine, as retrieved by gethostname(3), resolved to a valid and
reachable IPv4 address, using gethostbyname(3).
This makes talk(1) dependent on a valid host entry for "localhost"
in /etc/hosts (or the Domain Name System).
PR: bin/23178
Submitted by: angui.sh admin (with cleanups)
an existing symlink (as might happen if you extract an archive twice).
Also, if we remove the offending link, then we've removed the problem
and can safely go forward with the extraction.
Pointed out by: print/adobe-cmaps port (whose distfile has
duplicate entries for the same symlinks)
Thanks to: Kris Kennaway (for using ports as a testbed for bsdtar)
--exclude='pattern'.
I should have added this a long time ago, since it's so useful for testing.
In particular, it allows me to select a few entries from a troublesome
archive so that I can easily focus my debugging efforts:
bsdtar -czf new.tgz --include='*foo*' @old.tgz
(and not thread) scope is to be displayed, use KERN_PROC_ALL and
accrue CPU% ourselves, as the kernel makes no attempt to do so.
Of course, this doesn't make most stats any less bogus when displaying
threaded processes, but at least the CPU time is added up and not just
always 0.00%. There are still issues with SCHED_ULE in top(1) that
cause other processes to display 0.00% CPU when they in fact have used
more.
When sed is asked to inline-edit files, it forgets to close the temporary
file and runs out of descriptors for long command lines (assuming you reset
kern.maxfilesperproc to something sane that's less than the number of files
passed to sed).
* --help produces long help message on systems with getopt_long
* -h with no other options also produces long help message
(If a mode is specified, -h has its usual meaning.)
mbuma is an Mbuf & Cluster allocator built on top of a number of
extensions to the UMA framework, all included herein.
Extensions to UMA worth noting:
- Better layering between slab <-> zone caches; introduce
Keg structure which splits off slab cache away from the
zone structure and allows multiple zones to be stacked
on top of a single Keg (single type of slab cache);
perhaps we should look into defining a subset API on
top of the Keg for special use by malloc(9),
for example.
- UMA_ZONE_REFCNT zones can now be added, and reference
counters automagically allocated for them within the end
of the associated slab structures. uma_find_refcnt()
does a kextract to fetch the slab struct reference from
the underlying page, and lookup the corresponding refcnt.
mbuma things worth noting:
- integrates mbuf & cluster allocations with extended UMA
and provides caches for commonly-allocated items; defines
several zones (two primary, one secondary) and two kegs.
- change up certain code paths that always used to do:
m_get() + m_clget() to instead just use m_getcl() and
try to take advantage of the newly defined secondary
Packet zone.
- netstat(1) and systat(1) quickly hacked up to do basic
stat reporting but additional stats work needs to be
done once some other details within UMA have been taken
care of and it becomes clearer to how stats will work
within the modified framework.
From the user perspective, one implication is that the
NMBCLUSTERS compile-time option is no longer used. The
maximum number of clusters is still capped off according
to maxusers, but it can be made unlimited by setting
the kern.ipc.nmbclusters boot-time tunable to zero.
Work should be done to write an appropriate sysctl
handler allowing dynamic tuning of kern.ipc.nmbclusters
at runtime.
Additional things worth noting/known issues (READ):
- One report of 'ips' (ServeRAID) driver acting really
slow in conjunction with mbuma. Need more data.
Latest report is that ips is equally sucking with
and without mbuma.
- Giant leak in NFS code sometimes occurs, can't
reproduce but currently analyzing; brueffer is
able to reproduce but THIS IS NOT an mbuma-specific
problem and currently occurs even WITHOUT mbuma.
- Issues in network locking: there is at least one
code path in the rip code where one or more locks
are acquired and we end up in m_prepend() with
M_WAITOK, which causes WITNESS to whine from within
UMA. Current temporary solution: force all UMA
allocations to be M_NOWAIT from within UMA for now
to avoid deadlocks unless WITNESS is defined and we
can determine with certainty that we're not holding
any locks when we're M_WAITOK.
- I've seen at least one weird socketbuffer empty-but-
mbuf-still-attached panic. I don't believe this
to be related to mbuma but please keep your eyes
open, turn on debugging, and capture crash dumps.
This change removes more code than it adds.
A paper is available detailing the change and considering
various performance issues, it was presented at BSDCan2004:
