AppleTalk was a network transport protocol for Apple Macintosh devices
in 80s and then 90s. Starting with Mac OS X in 2000 the AppleTalk was
a legacy protocol and primary networking protocol is TCP/IP. The last
Mac OS X release to support AppleTalk happened in 2009. The same year
routing equipment vendors (namely Cisco) end their support.
Thus, AppleTalk won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.
IPX was a network transport protocol in Novell's NetWare network operating
system from late 80s and then 90s. The NetWare itself switched to TCP/IP
as default transport in 1998. Later, in this century the Novell Open
Enterprise Server became successor of Novell NetWare. The last release
that claimed to still support IPX was OES 2 in 2007. Routing equipment
vendors (e.g. Cisco) discontinued support for IPX in 2011.
Thus, IPX won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.
After several months of testing and fixing (and breaking)
various parts of release/release.sh changes, it is now
possible to build FreeBSD/arm images as part of the release
process.
When EMBEDDEDBUILD is set in the release.conf file, release.sh
will create the build environment, then run a separate script
in release/${XDEV}/release.sh [1]. Currently, only arm is
supported.
The release/${XDEV}/release.sh configures the build environment
specific for the target image, such as installing gcc(1),
installing additional third-party software from the ports tree,
and fetching external sources.
Once the build environment is set up, release/${XDEV}/release.sh
runs Crochet, written by Tim Kientzle, which builds the userland
and kernel, and creates an image that can be written to an SD
card with dd(1). Many thanks to Tim for his work on Crochet.
Sample configurations for FreeBSD/arm boards are in the
release/arm/ directory, and Crochet configuration files for each
board are located in release/tools/arm/. Supported boards at this
time are: BEAGLEBONE, PANDABOARD, RPI-B, and WANDBOARD-QUAD.
Adding support for additional boards will continue in the
projects/release-embedded/ branch, and incrementally merged back
to head/.
Many thanks to the FreeBSD Foundation for the support and
sponsorship of this project.
[1] XDEV is used in order to keep the various configurations
organized by architecture, but since TARGET and TARGET_ARCH
are used to build the chroot, the values of those variables
cannot be used.

GIANT from VFS. This code is particulary broken and fragile and other
in-kernel implementations around, found in other operating systems,
don't really seem clean and solid enough to be imported at all.
If someone wants to reconsider in-kernel NTFS implementation for
inclusion again, a fair effort for completely fixing and cleaning it
up is expected.
In the while NTFS regular users can use FUSE interface and ntfs-3g
port to work with their NTFS partitions.

GIANT from VFS. In addition, disconnect also netncp, which is a base

In the possibility of a future maintenance of the code and later

however I will let network people to comment on that more specifically.

The head of the file ObsoleteFiles.inc contains instructions how to add
obsolete files/dirs/libs to the list. Obviously one should add obsolete
files to this list, when he removes a file/dir/lib from the basesystem.
Additionally add check-old target:
- allows re@ to check if a file on the obsolete list resurfaces
Design goals:
- allows full control by the user (default interactive mode)
- possibility of scripted removal of obsolete files (batch mode)
- opt-in removal of files (explicit list of files)
- seperate removal of libs (2 delete targets)
Important design decissions:
- structured list of files to remove instead of a plain text file:
* allows to remove additional files if a NO_foo knob is specified
without the need to change the targets (no NO_foo knob is respected
yet)
- not using mtree like NetBSD does:
* mtree doesn't has an interactive mode
