is missing or the aliases text file is newer than aliases.db.
In my opinion, the aliases file should never be automatically rebuilt.
The current text form could represent a work in progress. Therefore,
in FreeBSD 7.0, this new option will default to "NO". When this rc.d
change is MFC'ed, it will need to remain "YES" to maintain backward
compatibility.

/etc/rc.d/hostid has just the root filesystem (and this way mainly the
tools in /bin) available.
I've chosen csh(1) here as the string manipulation tools available in
/bin is extremely limited and the (only) alternative ed(1) usage would
have been a lot more complicated or even might require a temporary file.

does and rc.subr(8) will make the appropriate decision. Incidentally, the
previous behaviour had a bug where the "force" flag was respected only
when checking rc.conf(5) knobs. The flag was ignored when verifying the
rpcbind(8) dependency.

dependency was introduced because this script had rc.d/localpkg (which is
*after* rc.d/NETWORKING) in its REQUIRE line.
From an examination of its contents it seems that only the availability of
a local filesystem is necessary for this script to function properly.
'zfs mount -a' from the main system - this is by design, as mountpoint

and takes over mountcritlocal's role as the early / late divider. This
makes it far easier to add rc scripts which need to run early, such as a
startup script for zfs, which is right around the corner.
This change should be a no-op; I have verified that the only change in
rcorder's output is the insertion of FILESYSTEMS immediately after

Include /var/db/entropy-file in the reseeding if present. It is used for
last-ditch efforts to save entropy and thus should also be used to seed

Also, since there's not much that can be done about it, notifying the user

modern dual-core systems as well.
- Parse the _CST packages for each cpu and track all the states individually,
on a per-cpu basis.
- Revert to generic FADT/P_BLK based Cx control if the _CST package
is not present on all cpus. In that case, the new driver will
still support per-cpu Cx state handling. The driver will determine the
highest Cx level that can be supported by all the cpus and configure the
available Cx state based on that.
- Fixed the case where multiple cpus in the system share the same
registers for Cx state handling. To do that, added a new flag
parameter to the acpi_PkgGas and acpi_bus_alloc_gas functions that
enable the caller to add the RF_SHAREABLE flag. This flag could also be
useful to other callers (acpi_throttle?) in the tree but this change is
not yet made.
- For Core Duo cpus, both cores seems to be taken out of C3 state when
any one of the cores need to transition out. This broke the short sleep
detection logic. It is disabled now if there is more than one cpu in
the system for now as it fixed it in my case. This quirk may need to
be re-enabled later differently.
- Added support to control cx_lowest on a per-cpu basis. There is still
a generic cx_lowest to enable changing cx_lowest for all cpus with a single
sysctl and for ease of use. Sample output for the new sysctl:
dev.cpu.0.cx_supported: C1/1 C2/1 C3/57
dev.cpu.0.cx_lowest: C3
dev.cpu.0.cx_usage: 0.00% 43.16% 56.83%
dev.cpu.1.cx_supported: C1/1 C2/1 C3/57
dev.cpu.1.cx_lowest: C3
