This directory is for tools.
A tool is something which is sometimes useful, and doesn't fit any of the
other categories.
Please make a subdir per program, and add a brief description to this file.
This directory is for test programs.
A test program is one that will excercise a particular bit of the system
and try to break it and/or measuring performance on it.
Please make a subdir per program, and add a brief description to this file.
This directory is for regression test programs.
A regression test program is one that will excercise a particular bit of the
system to check that we have not reintroduced an old bug.
Please make a subdir per program, and add a brief description to this file.
This directory is for diagnostic programs.
A diagnostic program is one that will inform you that something is wrong
somewhere, for instance by traversing a kernel-structure and verifying
the integrity.
Please make a subdir per program, and add a brief description to this file.
This directory tree contains tools used for the maintenance of FreeBSD.
There are no Makefile structure, but possibly Makefiles in some of the
subdirs.
Nothing show be installed from here and into the running system.
This directory should contain only subdirs and this file.
I tried to solve the problem of IDE probing compatibility in this version.
When compiled without an ATAPI option, the wd driver is
fully backward compatible with 2.0.5. With ATAPI option,
the wdprobe becomes strictly weaker. That is, if wdprobe works
without ATAPI option, it will always work with it too.
Another problem was with the CD-ROM drive attached as a slave
in the IDE bus, where there is no master. All IDE CD-ROM
drives are shipped in slave configuration, and most users
just plug them in, never thinking about jumpers.
It works fine with ms-dos and ms-windows, and this
version of the driver supports it as well.
The eject op can now load disks. Just repeat it twice,
and the disk will be ejected and then loaded back.
The disc cannot be ejected if it is mounted.

use .PATH.n to get the dependencies right and to avoid some shell tests.
Remove bogus dependency of individual compressed man pages on MANDEPEND.
Use for loops to avoid duplicated code.
Combine some rm steps in installation of links. Linking still takes too
long.
nxmmap() returned a bogus value as well as having a bogus type. Some
drivers use nxmmap() for configured devices (`nx' functions should
only be used for unconfigured devices). These drivers allowed mmapping
physical page 6, which may have interesting contents. vm has kludges
to avoid the same bug with nullop() returning page 0 and enodev()
returning page 19 (ENODEV), but didn't handle enxio() returning page 6.
vm is the wrong place to handle these bugs.
capacity of the link, even if the route's MTU indicates that we cannot
send that much in their direction. (This might actually make it possible
to test Path MTU discovery in a useful variety of cases.)
free-run and doing a subtract in microtime() rather than resetting the
counter to zero at every clock tick. In combination with the changes to
kern_clock.c, this should eliminate all the immediately obvious sources
of systematic jitter in timekeeping on Pentium machines.
turned out not to be necessary; simply watching for MTU decreases (which
we already did) automagically eliminates all the cases we were trying to
protect against.
Document `-d' and `-I'. Add a BUGS section noting that
logging from UDP is an unauthenticated remote disk-filling service,
and probably should be disabled by default in the absence of some sort
of authentication.
