used as an address value. Then all comparisons should be done unsigned
and not signed. Fix it with a typecast of u_quad_t.
Error can be demonstrated with the current bash in port, do a
ulimit -s unlimited and the machine hangs. bash delivers through
an internal error a large negative value for the stacksize, the
comparison saw this smaller than MAXSSIZ and then tried to expand
the stack to this size.
Now floppy tape support is *disabled* unless you specifically
request otherwise. Poul wanted it this way, and I guess I'm not going to argue
though it may seem counter-intuitive. We can always change it back, later.

I've also added to my local mods putting the sequencer into "FASTMODE" clock.
This gives upwards of 2M/sec write preformance improvement in some scenarios.
There haven't been any reports of this causing problems, and I have been

instead, Bruce' comment for this:

ICRNL doesn't apply to cngetc(). cnputc() unconditionally does the
equivalent of ONLCR; perhaps cngetc() should unconditionally do the
equivalent of ICRNL. Ddb must be checking for CR. Userconfig only
checks for NL. Userconfig works with syscons because pccngetc()
does the conversion. This is probably the wrong place to do it.
Allow chown() to return success if the gid isn't changed even if
the gid is not the caller's. Such gids are normal for files created
in world-writable directories sucj as /tmp. This "fixes" annoying
error messages for mv'ing files created in /tmp to another file
system. mv still preserves the foreign gid of /tmp, but now does
it silently.
operation of each clist. Limit the growth of each clist. Clists
can only grow larger than the reserved minimum if there are free
cblocks in a shared pool. The size of this pool is now fixed
(this could be improved). The reserved and maximum sizes are more
carefully allocated for slip and ppp, depending on the mtu. A maximum
MTU of 16384 is now enforced for ppp.
1. The pageout daemon used to block under certain
circumstances, and we needed to add new functionality
that would cause the pageout daemon to block more often.
Now, the pageout daemon mostly just gets rid of pages
and kills processes when the system is out of swap.
The swapping, rss limiting and object cache trimming
have been folded into a new daemon called "vmdaemon".
This new daemon does things that need to be done for
the VM system, but can block. For example, if the
vmdaemon blocks for memory, the pageout daemon
can take care of it. If the pageout daemon had
blocked for memory, it was difficult to handle
the situation correctly (and in some cases, was
impossible).
2. The collapse problem has now been entirely fixed.
It now appears to be impossible to accumulate unnecessary
vm objects. The object collapsing now occurs when ref counts
drop to one (where it is more likely to be more simple anyway
because less pages would be out on disk.) The original
fixes were incomplete in that pathological circumstances
could still be contrived to cause uncontrolled growth
of swap. Also, the old code still, under steady state
conditions, used more swap space than necessary. When
using the new code, users will generally notice a
significant decrease in swap space usage, and theoretically,
the system should be leaving fewer unused pages around
competing for memory.

and into ether_input(). It was silly to have bpf want this one way and
ether_input want it another way. Ripped out trailer support from the few
remaining drivers that still had it.
1) make #includes correct
2) fix bugs in address check macros
3) fixed bugs in, and enabled, recopy if heavily fragmented code
4) moved call to bpf tap to be before enqueing packet (probably gratuitous)

Subject: Mea culpa -- small fix for netboot fixes
In accordance with the unavoidable principle sof Murphy's Law, I discovered
that the fixes I recently contributed for the netboot code had some small
flaws in them. Two of them were just typos and had no effect on how the
program functioned. The other one was a missing line from the rootopts and
swapopts functions I created in bootmenu.c, which was supposed to initialize
the NFS sotype flag. It defaults to UDP, and you can change it to TCP with
the rootopts or swapopts commands, but then you can't change it back again.
I originally had a line at the top of each function to reinitialize this
flag, but somehow it got lost in the shuffle, probably because I don't
actually have a need for that flag yet.

That was the good news. The bad news is that bad144 is a proper mess,
and I don't have time to fix it now, so you will probably not be able to
use it anyway.
Sorry guys, go out and buy a 100Mb IDE drive and a paddleboard :-(
If somebody wants to pick up on this: bad144 needs to learn how to
stay inside our slice of the disk. That's the trick.
Go to a single dependancy in files.i386. Using a .c file for the

Somehow, I don't think this stuff was tested at all! :-(
I really hope that it actually works, though my hopes are steadily diminishing.
Anyone with 27xx/28xx boards in -current is *strongly encouraged* to give this

Supports 27/2842 class adaptec cards and is almost capable of supporting
aic7870 based adapters (294X series cards). It does not support Wide
controllers or the second channel on Twin boards although I have work in
progress on getting both channels and running.
I have also added a few performance improvements to this version that give
us approximately a 25% boost over the original driver. These patches have
been submitted to the author.

buffering scheme and make it more in tune with FreeBSD's vfs_bio
implementation. The filesystem seems fairly stable, but I wouldn't recommend
it to anyone not willing to experience problems. This is very green code and
has the limitation that YOU CAN ONLY HAVE ONE LFS PARTITION MOUNTED AT A TIME.
What LFS is good for:
Non fsynced writes FASTER THAN FFS
Large deletions Increadibly fast
Reads are a little bit slower than FFS right now, but that is a factor of
how under optimized this code is. LFS should in theory perform at least as
well as FFS under fsync (iozone) type loads, and this is what I'm currently
working on.
