several new kerberos related libraries and applications to FreeBSD:
o kgetcred(1) allows one to manually get a ticket for a particular service.
o kf(1) securily forwards ticket to another host through an authenticated
and encrypted stream.
o kcc(1) is an umbrella program around klist(1), kswitch(1), kgetcred(1)
and other user kerberos operations. klist and kswitch are just symlinks
to kcc(1) now.
o kswitch(1) allows you to easily switch between kerberos credentials if
you're running KCM.
o hxtool(1) is a certificate management tool to use with PKINIT.
o string2key(1) maps a password into key.
o kdigest(8) is a userland tool to access the KDC's digest interface.
o kimpersonate(8) creates a "fake" ticket for a service.
We also now install manpages for some lirbaries that were not installed
before, libheimntlm and libhx509.
- The new HEIMDAL version no longer supports Kerberos 4. All users are
recommended to switch to Kerberos 5.
- Weak ciphers are now disabled by default. To enable DES support (used
by telnet(8)), use "allow_weak_crypto" option in krb5.conf.
- libtelnet, pam_ksu and pam_krb5 are now compiled with error on warnings
disabled due to the function they use (krb5_get_err_text(3)) being
deprecated. I plan to work on this next.
- Heimdal's KDC now require sqlite to operate. We use the bundled version
and install it as libheimsqlite. If some other FreeBSD components will
require it in the future we can rename it to libbsdsqlite and use for these
components as well.
- This is not a latest Heimdal version, the new one was released while I was
working on the update. I will update it to 1.5.2 soon, as it fixes some
important bugs and security issues.

On modern branches there is an undocumented alias (see r219084) but on

Note this does *not* disable building and installing gcc, which will
still be available as /usr/bin/gcc, /usr/bin/g++ and /usr/bin/gcpp. If
you want to disable gcc completely, you must use WITHOUT_GCC.

USERSPACE:
1. add support for devices with different number of rx and tx queues;
2. add better support for zero-copy operation, adding an extra field
to the netmap ring to indicate how many buffers we have already processed
but not yet released (with help from Eddie Kohler);
3. The two changes above unfortunately require an API change, so while
at it add a version field and some spares to the ioctl() argument
to help detect mismatches.
4. update the manual page for the two changes above;
5. update sample applications in tools/tools/netmap
KERNEL:
1. simplify the internal structures moving the global wait queues
to the 'struct netmap_adapter';
2. simplify the functions that map kring<->nic ring indexes
3. normalize device-specific code, helps mainteinance;
4. start exploring the impact of micro-optimizations (prefetch etc.)
in the ixgbe driver.
Use 'legacy' descriptors on the tx ring and prefetch slots gives
about 20% speedup at 900 MHz. Another 7-10% would come from removing
the explict calls to bus_dmamap* in the core (they are effectively
NOPs in this case, but it takes expensive load of the per-buffer
dma maps to figure out that they are all NULL.
Rx performance not investigated.
I am postponing the MFC so i can import a few more improvements
before merging.
1) _x=$((_x + 1)) does not work while x=$((x + 1)) does.
2) Parameter Expansion, esp. "${x%%bar}" does not work if quoted.
Correct typos and improve some details forwarding.sh already
had in initiator, esp. related to ipfw accepting if the default
is deny.
Add an extra stat call to the "delay" function in addition to the
touch which together is still a lot faster than sleep 1 but seems
to help a lot more to mitigate the unrelated kernel race seen.

This allows all of the athstats statistics to work again.
Specifics:
* The previous code used chars < 0x80 as printable, and chars >= 0x80
as "statistics"
* .. which meant any statistic above 127 would wrap around to 0;
* .. so once I added the 802.11n TX/RX statistics to athstats, the tail
end of the statistics list weren't accessible.
This patch:
* adds a define which represents the magic character, rather than a hard
coded one
* the statistic in question is little endian encoded after the magic
character.
Notes:
* statfoo is useful enough to possibly warrant turning into a library API.
receive and forward path tagging packets with both the ifconfig fib
option or using ipfw, running ICMP6, TCP/v6 and UDP/v6 tests and
testing both setfib(2) as well as the SO_SETFIB socket option.
At 16 FIBs a total of over 64k return codes/replies/stati are checked,
sometimes multiple times (in different ways, e.g. the reflected request
as well as ipfw counter values).
The scripts need two or three machines to run and are thus not added
to the tools/regression framework but only to tools/test.

The default is to wait after each counter is tested. Since the prompt

The program will verify that all counters fire and that the code neither
panics the system nor locks it up. This should be considered a first pass
conformance test for new sets of counters being added to hwpmc(4).
At first, I added a utility called utxrm(8) to remove stale entries from
the user accounting database. It seems there are cases in which we need
to perform different operations on the database as well. Simply rename
utxrm(8) to utx(8) and place the old code under the "rm" command.
In addition to "rm", this tool supports "boot" and "shutdown", which are
going to be used by an rc-script which I am going to commit separately.
TUNABLE variable (hw.netmap.buf_size) so we can experiment
with values different from 2048 which may give better cache performance.
- rearrange the memory allocation code so it will be easier
to replace it with a different implementation. The current code
relies on a single large contiguous chunk of memory obtained through
contigmalloc.
The new implementation (not committed yet) uses multiple
smaller chunks which are easier to fit in a fragmented address
space.
If the sentence starts with a multiple of eight spaces, the sentence
should in almost all practical cases have started with tabs instead.
Replace these spaces by tabs.
This small utility can be used to `sanitize' the whitespace in source
code. It does the following things:
Global:
- Remove empty lines at the beginning and the end of a file.
- Merge successive empty lines into a single empty line.
Per-line:
- Remove trailing whitespace.
- Merge spaces preceeding tabs into the tabs.
It operated on stdin/stdout. This means that if you use vi(1), you can
just run :%!fixwhite to reorganize the file.

More fine-grained control is provided via MK_SOURCELESS_HOST (for native code
that runs on host CPU) and MK_SOURCELESS_UCODE (for microcode).

expressions properly. Some of the tests depend on the compiler
implementing C99's FENV_ACCESS pragma, and only commercial compilers
do; those tests are currently skipped. If any of the enabled tests
fail, then odds are the libm regression tests will fail also.
This should make it easier to diagnose reported problems on platforms
I don't have.
Currently, gcc passes all the tests that don't depend on FENV_ACCESS
on amd64 and sparc64. Clang fails a few on amd64 (see clang bug
11406). Both gcc and clang fare poorly on i386, which has well-known
issues.
Before this fix, only the first statement of the trap was executed if
evalskip was set. This is for example the case when:
o "-e" is set for this shell
o a trap is set on EXIT
o a function returns 1 and causes the script to abort

Also, rework evalcase() to not evaluate any tree. Instead, return the
NCLISTFALLTHRU node and handle it in evaltree().
Fixed bugs:
* If a ;& list with non-zero exit status is followed by an empty ;; or final
list, the exit status of the case command should be equal to the exit
status of the ;& list, not 0.
* An empty ;& case should not reset $?.
* If no pattern is matched, POSIX says the exit status shall be 0 (even if
there are command substitutions).
* If a pattern is matched and there are no command substitutions, the first
command should see the $? from before the case command, not always 0.
