Prevent cron from going crazy if the time steps. For example, if you
have a system with hundreds of users and lots of different crontabs
and your time steps back an hour, the old cron would then attempt to
run an hours worth of cron jobs in a few seconds.
Increase the size of a number of buffers and replace strcpy/strcat/sprintf
with snprintf(). There was a minor and possibly not exploitable security
hole related to one sprintf().
Update chpass(1) manual page. Change the definition of the class
field and also reorganize the field list to match that of the
/etc/master.passwd file, to avoid confusion.
Have pwd_mkdb lock the source file while rebuilding the database. When
called by programs such as vipw, the source file is a temporary file and
this does not conflict with the lock on /etc/master.passwd already held
by vipw. When run manually, however, master.passwd is typically specified
as the argument and the locking prevents other programs from messing with
master.passwd during the database rebuild.
Also pwd_mkdb uses a blocking exclusive lock as it may be called from
a script. The -N option was added to cause pwd_mkdb to get the lock
non-blocking and exit with an error if the attempt fails, again useful
for scripts.
- For transactions of 0 length, us a non-residual checking CCB type.
- Preserve command status if our interrupt handler completes a command
while we are polling for completion in aha_cmd.
Delete rc.local from CVS tree, its remaining functionality has been
moved to /etc/rc. /etc/rc still supports an rc.local but it is now
a 100% user-controlled file.
Commit changes to rc and rc.local, removing the remaining minimal
functionality of rc.local into rc and commenting it out of rc.local
prior to the deletion of rc.local from the CVS tree.
(3?) people will make an effort to help those who would have benefitted from
this change. And just telling them that they should read and understand
the significance of each message posted to -current is not really good
enough IMHO.
If timer calculation results in degenerate value (0), force it to 1
to avoid divide-by-zero panic later on in calls to IGMP_RANDOM_DELAY().
I considered simply adding 1 to the timer calculation, but was unsure
if the calculation was part of the IGMP standard or not so did not want
to mess with it for all cases.

Wakeup anyone waiting on a mount point prior to returning from umount,
whether an error occurs or not. Fixes a stat/NFS-umount race and other
potential future problems. Fix taken from bug/pr which also indicated
that the same fix has already been applied to OpenBSD and NetBSD.
This is odd, especially in the case of USB where the driver is found
in several tries: vendor specific, class specific, interface specific.
The mouse driver is found at the interface specific level...

floppy is used on the toshiba Libretto line of subnotebook computers.
It differs from a normal floppy in that you must use PIO rather than
DMA to transfer the data.
To enable this, you must add options "FDC_YE" to your kernel. I don't
have a machine that has a floppy and a pcmcia slot to test to make
sure that this doesn't impact normal floppy units, so I've left this as
an option.
I have ported this to -current and made an attempt to ensure that the
indentation conforms to style(9), aka the bruce filter.

don't recurse in "make describe". The new INDEX target in
ports/Makefile invokes a perl script to recurse and convert them
into package names.
While I'm here, change the name of targets and move them around a
little bit for the sake of consistency.
It is also probably worth noting here that the meaning of the
"build dependency" list in INDEX has been changed slightly
changed. The old list was "build depends and its build depends"
-- not particularly useful if you had things like autoconf, which
run-depend on gm4 (you install all the things listed here and
you'll get an autoconf that won't run).
It is now "build depends and its run depends" -- you install
everything listed here, and you'll be able to build the port.

(1) Remove NO_WRKDIR and NO_EXTRACT. Their functionality are easily
replacable with NO_WRKSUBDIR=t and EXTRACT_ONLY= (nothing on right
side), and they get in the way of read-only port trees.
(2) Surround first few variable definitions with ".if !defined()".
This will make cross-compilation easier and also speed up make
processes.
(3) Call sysctl with absolute path. Prefer the one in /sbin over the
one in /usr/sbin.
(4) Add four new variables
PKGINSTALL?= ${PKGDIR}/INSTALL
PKGDEINSTALL?= ${PKGDIR}/DEINSTALL
PKGREQ?= ${PKGDIR}/REQ
PKGMESSAGE?= ${PKGDIR}/MESSAGE
and use them in PKG_ARGS. Frobbing with PKG_ARGS directly is
strongly discouraged.
(5) Change PKG_SUFX to ".tar" (instead of ".tgz") if PKG_NOCOMPRESS is
defined. This is intended only for our own use.
(6) Add more sites to MASTER_SITE_GNU.

(7) Override MANUAL_PACKAGE_BUILD if PARALLEL_PACKAGE_BUILD is

(8) Add new target "ignorelist" which will print out the package name
if the port is not going to be built on this machine. This is
intended only for our own use.
(9) Make mtree a little quieter.
incorporate some notion of which revision the device is. If it's < SCSI2, for
example, READ BLOCK LIMITS is not a MANDATORY command.
At any rate, the initial state is to try and read block limits to get a notion
of the smallest and largest record size as well as the granularity. However,
this doesn't mean that the device should actually *in* fixed block mode should
the max && min be equal... *That* choice is (for now) determined by whether
the device comes up with a blocksize of nonzero. If so, then it's a fixed block
preferred device, otherwise not (this will change again soon).
When actually doing I/O, and you're in fixed length mode, the block count is
*not* the byte count divided by the minimum block size- it's the byte count
divided by the current blocksize (or use shift/mask shortcuts if that worked
out...).
Then when you *change* the blocksize via an ioctl, make sure this actually
propagates to the stored notion of blocksize (and update the shift/mask
shortcuts).
Misc Other:
When doing a mode select, only use the SCSI_SAME_DENSITY (0x7f) code if
the device is >= SCSI2- otherwise just use the saved density code.
Recover from the ripple of ILLEGAL REQUEST not being 'retried' in that
RESERVE/RELEASE is not a mandatory command for < SCSI2 (so ignore it if it
fails).
but the present PCI probe code still thinks we are there as the pci attach
can't return an error code.
This means we are in the shared interrupt list, but have not been set up.
If we are sharing ints with another device, ohci_intr will be called and will
coredump on a NULL reference. So just return if it is called when not set up.
This fixes the symptom and not the cause.
The right answer is to let the PCI system know that the attach failed,
or to fail earlier (in the PCI probe).
The attach() is a void fn() so it can't return failure..
