It is wrong to relate on __FreeBSD_version, either from
include/param.h, kernel, or libc, to check for rtld features.
Rtld might be from newer world than the running userspace.
Add special private symbols exported by rtld itself, to indicate the
changes in runtime behavior, and features that cannot be otherwise
detected or deduced at runtime.
Note that the symbols are not exported from libc, so they intentionally
cannot be linked against, and exported from the private namespace from rtld.
Consumers are required to use dlsym(3). For instance, for
_rtld_version_laddr_offset, user should do
ptr = dlsym(RTLD_DEFAULT, "_rtld_version_laddr_offset")
or even
ptr = dlvsym(RTLD_DEFAULT, "_rtld_version_laddr_offset",
"FBSDprivate_1.0");
Non-null ptr means that the change is present.
Also add _rtld_version__FreeBSD_version indicator to report the
headers version used at time of the rtld build.

that the ELF aux data was mostly treated as environment variables,

This commit replaces the rotation with a scan in the

the slot of the oldest file, and writes entropy into that slot.
This also fixes an issue that prevents save-entropy from saving
any entropy when there is one non-regular file in any slot as a

luaconf has been slightly obfuscated to make extensions more difficult. Part

This change allows to specify a watchdog(9) timeout for a system
shutdown. The timeout is activated when the watchdogd daemon is
stopped. The idea is to a prevent any indefinite hang during late
stages of the shutdown. The feature is implemented in rc.d/watchdogd,
it builds upon watchdogd -x option.
Note that the shutdown timeout is not actiavted when the watchdogd
service is individually stopped by an operator. It is also not
activated for the 'shutdown' to the single-user mode. In those cases it
is assumed that the operator knows what they are doing and they have
means to recover the system should it hang.
Significant subchanges and implementation details:
- the argument to rc.shutdown, completely unused before, is assigned to
rc_shutdown variable that can be inspected by rc scripts
- init(8) passes "single" or "reboot" as the argument, this is not
changed
- the argument is not mandatory and if it is not set then rc_shutdown is
set to "unspecified"
- however, the default jail management scripts and jail configuration
examples have been updated to pass "jail" to rc.shutdown, just in case
- the new timeout can be set via watchdogd_shutdown_timeout rc option
- for consistency, the regular timeout can now be set via
watchdogd_timeout rc option
- watchdogd_shutdown_timeout and watchdogd_timeout override timeout
specifications in watchdogd_flags
- existing configurations, where the new rc options are not set, should
keep working as before
I am not particularly wed to any of the implementation specifics.
I am open to changing or removing any of them as long as the provided
functionality is the same (or very close) to the proposed one.
For example, I think it can be implemented without using watchdogd -x,
by means of watchdog(1) alone. In that case there would be a small
window between stopping watchdogd and running watchdog, but I think that
that is acceptable.
