r336795 adds support for handling of IPv6 addresses returned by getaddrinfo(3)
for DS hostnames. This updates the man page for this change.
This is a content change.
This patch adds code to handle IPv6 addresses returned by getaddrinfo()
for the host entries in the "-p" command line argument.
If the IPv6 address is a link local address, only use it if it is the
only address for the host. This is done since there is no way to know
if the NFSv4.1 pNFS client is in the same scope zone as the MDS.
inet_ntop() is used for the IPv6 address translation, since the client
will have no use for the scope zone suffix and inet_ntop() does not
put this in the address string.

pw_scan(3) has been fixed in a way that doesn't perturb other callers of
it or the getpwnam(3) family.
Make pw(8) showuser work the same with or without -R <path> for non-root
users. Without -R, pw(8) uses getpwnam(3), which will open master.passwd
for the root user or passwd for non-root users. With -R <path> pw(8) was
always opening <path>/master.passwd, which would fail for a non-root user,
then falsely claim the userid you're trying to show doesn't exist.
Now for a non-root user it opens <path>/passwd, and populates the fields in
the returned struct passwd which aren't present in that file with well-known
canonical values, which duplicates the behavior of getpwnam(3). The net
effect is that the showuser output is identical whether using -R or not.
Although the ffs (and later msdosfs) implementation in makefs is
independent of the one in kernel, it makes sense to keep differences to
a minimum in order to ease comparison and porting changes across.

Temporarily decompress a copy of a crash dump compressed with either
gzip or zstd and run various tools against the decompressed copy while
generating the crash information. The uncompressed copy is deleted when
the script exits.
Note that crashinfo is enabled by default, so this will attempt to
decompress the most recent compressed crash dump after a crash that
generates a compressed crash dump. Users who wish to only do offline
analysis of compressed crash dumps can disable crashinfo in rc.conf.

that aren't available in the passwd file, which duplicates the behavior of
getpwnam(3). The net effect is that the showuser output is identical

Fix two failing makefs test cases by adding "-M 1m", which was already used
for every other FFS test case. Add a new test case for the underlying
issue: with no -M, -m, or -s options, makefs can underestimate image size.

Code analysis and runtime analysis using truss(8) indicate that the only
privileged operations performed by ntpd are adjusting system time, and
(re-)binding to privileged UDP port 123. These changes add a new mac(4)
policy module, mac_ntpd(4), which grants just those privileges to any
process running with uid 123.
This also adds a new user and group, ntpd:ntpd, (uid:gid 123:123), and makes
them the owner of the /var/db/ntp directory, so that it can be used as a
location where the non-privileged daemon can write files such as the
driftfile, and any optional logfile or stats files.
Because there are so many ways to configure ntpd, the question of how to
configure it to run without root privs can be a bit complex, so that will be
addressed in a separate commit. These changes are just what's required to
grant the limited subset of privs to ntpd, and the small change to ntpd to
prevent it from exiting with an error if running as non-root.

Plumb the %VERSREQ from Makefile.<arch> through to the rest of config(8).
We've recorded the config(8) version that we're calling "the end of
envmode and hintmode," and we'll write them out for earlier versions. Later
kernel version bumps will remove envmode/hintmode from the kernel as needed,
which is OK since the current kernel does not use them at all.
These compatibility shims really need to go away when the major version
rolls over...

config-generated hints.c/env.c from r335998 and later are incompatible with
earlier kernels due to no longer setting envmode/hintmode. A minor bump for
this is insufficient, as matching major version with a later minor version
is still viewed as backwards-compatible.
This was an MI kernel change, soo all VERSREQ's are bumped.

Normally, we can get away with just reading the 1k buffer for the
string, since the placement of the data is generally no where near the
end of the file. However, it's possible that the string is within the
last 1k of the file, in which case the read will fail, and we'll not
produce the proper records needed for devmatch to work. By reading
using EF_SEG_READ_STRING, we automatically work around these problems
while still retaining safety.
This fix a problem with devmatch where we wouldn't load certain
modules (like ums). This didn't always happen (my tree didn't exhibit
it, while nathan's did because his optimization options were more
agressive).

This variable has been given the name "loader_env.disabled" as it's the
primary way most people will have an MD environment. This restores the
previously-default behavior of ignoring the loader(8) environment, which may
be useful for vendor distributions or other scenarios where inheriting the
loader environment may be considered a security issue or potentially
breaking of a more locked-down environment.
As the change to config(5) indicates, disabling the loader environment
should not be a choice made lightly since it may provide ACPI hints and
other useful things that the system can rely on to boot.
An UPDATING entry has been added to mention an upgrade path for those that
may have relied on the previous behavior.

The bhyve(8) exit status indicates how the VM was terminated:
0 rebooted
1 powered off
2 halted
3 triple fault
The problem is when we have wrappers around bhyve that parses the exit
error code and gets an exit(1) for an error but interprets it as "powered off".
So to mitigate this issue and makes it less error prone for third part
applications, I have added a new exit code 4 that is "exited due to an error".
For now the bhyve(8) exit status are:
0 rebooted
1 powered off
2 halted
3 triple fault
4 exited due to an error

The pnfsdskill(8) command will normally fail if there is no valid mirror
for the DS to be disabled. However, a system administrator may need to
disable a DS which does not have a valid mirror so that the nfsd threads
can be terminated. This patch adds a "-f" option to pnfsdskill(8) that
uses the kernel changes made by r336141 to implement this "forced" case
of disabling a DS.
This patch only affects the pNFS server.
The RFC 5424 spec mentions that logging FQDNs over short hostnames is
preferred. Alter this code, so that the hostname doesn't get truncated
on startup. Keep track of the length of the short hostname, so that
fprintf() can do the truncation where necessary.

r336019 introduced ${SRCTOP}/sys to the include paths in order to pull in a
new sys/{c,}nv.h. This is wrong, because the build tree's ABI isn't
guaranteed to match what's running on the host system.
Fix instead by removing -I${SRCTOP}/sys and installing the libnv headers
with `make -C lib/libnv includes`... this may or may not get re-worked in
the future so that a userland lib isn't installing includes from sys/.

r335653 flipped the order in which hints/env files are concatenated to match
the order in which vars are processed by the kernel. This is the other
hammer to drop.
Use nv(9) to de-dupe entries within a single `hint` or `env` file, using the
latest value specified for a key. This leaves some duplicates if a variable
is specified in multiple hint/env files or via `envvar` in a kernel config,
but the reversed order of concatenation (from r335653) makes this a
non-issue as the latest-specified version will be seen first.
This change also silently rewrote hint bits to use the same sanitization
process that ian@ wrote for r335642. To the kernel, hints and env vars are
basically the same thing through early boot, then get merged into the
dynamic environment once kmem becomes available and the dynamic environment
is created. They should be subjected to the same restrictions.

At the moment, hintmode and envmode are used to indicate whether static
hints or static env have been provided in the kernel config(5) and the
static versions are mutually exclusive with loader(8)-provided environment.
hintmode *can* be reconfigured later to pull from the dynamic environment,
thus taking advantage of the loader(8) or post-kmem environment setting.
This changeset fixes both problems at once to move us from a semi-confusing
state to a consistent state: if an environment file, hints file, or
loader(8) environment are provided, we use them in a well-known order of
precedence:
- loader(8) environment
- static environment
- static hints file
Once the dynamic environment is setup this becomes a moot point. The
loader(8) and static environments are merged (respecting the above order of
precedence), and the static hints are merged in on an as-needed basis after
the dynamic environment has been setup.
Hints lookup are changed to respect all of the above. Before the dynamic
environment is setup, lookups use the above-mentioned order and fallback to
the next environment if a matching hint is not found. Once the dynamic
environment is setup, that is used on its own since it captures all of the
above information plus any dynamic kenv settings that came up later in boot.
The following tangentially related changes were made to res_find:
- A hintp cookie is now passed in so that related searches continue using
the chain of environments (or dynamic environment) without relying on
global state
- All three environments will be searched if they actually have valid hints
to use, rather than just choosing the first environment that actually had
a hint and rolling with that only
The hintmode sysctl has been ripped out. static_{env,hints}.disabled are
still honored and will disable their respective environments from being used
for hint lookups and from being merged into the dynamic environment, as
expected.
