o The following additional configuration attributes of a jail can be
controlled from rc.conf:
- mounting devfs(5)
- mounting fdescfs(5)
- mounting procfs(5)
- custom devfs(8) ruleset
If no ruleset is specified, the default jail ruleset is used.
o The output of executing /etc/rc in the jail is now redirected
to /dev/null. Instead, the hostname of the jail is echoed if
the jail(8) command exited successfully. If the output is wanted
it can probably be redirected to a file (/var/run/$jail maybe)
instead of /dev/null.

devfs(8) rules in rc(8). It is most useful for applying
rules to devfs(5) mount points in /dev or inside jails.
The following line of script is sufficient to
mount a relatively useful+secure devfs(5) in a jail:
devfs_mount_jail /some/jail/dev
Some new shell routines available to scripts that source
rc.subr(5):
o devfs_link - Makes it a little easier to create symlinks
o devfs_init_rulesets - Create devfs(8) rulesets from devfs.rules
o devfs_set_ruleset - Set a ruleset to a devfs(5) mount
o devfs_apply_ruleset - Apply a ruleset to a devfs(5) mount
o devfs_domount - Mount devfs(5) and apply some ruleset
o devfs_mount_jail - Mount devfs(5) and apply a ruleset
appropriate to jails.
Additional rulesets can be specified in /etc/devfs.rules.
If the devfs_system_ruleset variable is defined in rc.conf
and it contains the name of a ruleset defined in /etc/defaults/devfs.rules
or user supplied rulesets in /etc/devfs.rules then that ruleset will
be applied to /dev at startup by the /etc/rc.d/devfs script. It can
also be applied post-startup:
/etc/rc.d/devfs start
This is a more flexible mechanism than the previous method of using
/etc/devfs.conf. However, that method is still available.
Note: since devfs(8) doesn't provide any way for creating symlinks
as part of a ruleset, anyone wishing to create symlinks in a devfs(5)
as part of the bootup sequence will still have to rely on /etc/devfs.conf.
use the atmconfig(8) utility instead of route(8) to install those routes.
For this we need a new rc.conf variable natm_static_routes that works
just like static_routes except that the referenced routes use the syntax
of atmconfig(8).

Improve the dhcp handling of pccard_ether.
There are now many configurations which have a NIC on board and
cardbus slots too. If a dhclient was already running on the internal
NIC, the user was forced to kill a running dhclient manually.
If now a pccard is included at startup time, /etc/rc.d/dhclient
start does include it into the startup list for dhcp devices.
That means you can now do dhcp on the internal and the pccard devices
at the same time. If the card is plugged in later, a running dhclient
(working for the internal interface only) is killed, and restarted,
but the interface name of the new pccard is added to the internal
name. After removal, /etc/rc.d/dhclient is started again. This
script does nothing if there are no devices in /etc/rc.conf
This is only a workaround for a well known problem. After we have
a dhcp client which handles device adding and removal, it will go
away.
The original name was really a mistake since
/usr/local/etc/rc.d scripts can (and usually do) start
more than just daemons. Even the output in the script
uses 'local packages.' Also, the term 'local daemons' is
used by rc.d/local, which was etc/rc.local of rcOG fame.
No repo-copy because there isn't much history to save.
I will remove localdaemons shortly with all the other
files that don't belong in rc.d anymore.

To use harp(4) the rc variable natm_interfaces must be set to the
list of NATM interfaces to be used for HARP. These interfaces
will be brought up with ifconfig and the harp(4) will be loaded.
To use loadable native HARP drivers atm_load must be set to
the list of drivers to load.
