IPX was a network transport protocol in Novell's NetWare network operating
system from late 80s and then 90s. The NetWare itself switched to TCP/IP
as default transport in 1998. Later, in this century the Novell Open
Enterprise Server became successor of Novell NetWare. The last release
that claimed to still support IPX was OES 2 in 2007. Routing equipment
vendors (e.g. Cisco) discontinued support for IPX in 2011.
Thus, IPX won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.
taking a variable to set need to make sure they protect their locals; if
$var_to_set positional argument coincides with a local the expected call
to `setvar' will fail to reach outside of the function's namespace. When
such collisions are experienced (as I did in the rewrite of usermgmt) the
solution is to append a full or abbreviated version of the function name
to the local (ultimately eliminating collisions). This is rarely needed
and only occurs when you have a lot of like-named functions that pass
very similar $var_to_set positional arguments to each other (such as-is
the case with an expansive library such as `dialog.subr').

mechanism, based on the new SB_STOP sockbuf flag. The old hack dynamically
changed the sending sockbuf's high water mark whenever adding or removing
data from the receiving sockbuf. It worked for stream sockets, but it never
worked for SOCK_SEQPACKET sockets because of their atomic nature. If the
sockbuf was partially full, it might return EMSGSIZE instead of blocking.
The new solution is based on DragonFlyBSD's fix from commit
3a6117bbe0ed6a87605c1e43e12a1438d8844380 on 2008-05-27. It adds an SB_STOP
flag to sockbufs. Whenever uipc_send surpasses the socket's size limit, it
sets SB_STOP on the sending sockbuf. sbspace() will then return 0 for that
sockbuf, causing sosend_generic and friends to block. uipc_rcvd will
likewise clear SB_STOP. There are two fringe benefits: uipc_{send,rcvd} no
longer need to call chgsbsize() on every send and receive because they don't
change the sockbuf's high water mark. Also, uipc_sense no longer needs to
acquire the UIPC linkage lock, because it's simpler to compute the
st_blksizes.
There is one drawback: since sbspace() will only ever return 0 or the
maximum, sosend_generic will allow the sockbuf to exceed its nominal maximum
size by at most one packet of size less than the max. I don't think that's
a serious problem. In fact, I'm not even positive that FreeBSD guarantees a
socket will always stay within its nominal size limit.

interface, in the r241616 a crutch was provided. It didn't work well, and
finally we decided that it is time to break ABI and simply make if_baudrate
a 64-bit value. Meanwhile, the entire struct if_data was reviewed.
o Remove the if_baudrate_pf crutch.
o Make all fields of struct if_data fixed machine independent size. The
notion of data (packet counters, etc) are by no means MD. And it is a
bug that on amd64 we've got a 64-bit counters, while on i386 32-bit,
which at modern speeds overflow within a second.
This also removes quite a lot of COMPAT_FREEBSD32 code.
o Give 16 bit for the ifi_datalen field. This field was provided to
make future changes to if_data less ABI breaking. Unfortunately the
8 bit size of it had effectively limited sizeof if_data to 256 bytes.
o Give 32 bits to ifi_mtu and ifi_metric.
o Give 64 bits to the rest of fields, since they are counters.

The previous code failed to return an error condition when the whole input
was invalid due to improper handling of the sscanf return value. Actually,
this failure was properly being caught by a test in
tools/regression/lib/libc/net/test-ether.t but was not noticed because
these tests are never run. (On my way to fixing that ;-)
The fix applied here resembles the implementation of ether_line in NetBSD
modulo the setting of an errno value (which is not documented as an
expectation in the manpage anyway).
This function is not public and brooks (initial committer adding the code)
suggests the deletion of the tests (which I don't know if they work)
instead of changing the visibility of the function.
Just replace the simple calls to the library with ad-hoc code. We should
later rewrite these with the ATF libraries anyway, which are part of the
base system.
Tests that cannot be run because a precondition is not met should be
marked as skipped, not failed. Do this for the tests in mdconfig that
first check if the caller user is root.
Small divergences in the output padding made some sa tests fail. Just
trim all whitespace from the outputs and the golden files so comparisons
are less fragile and the tests pass again.
Because bmake is the default make being built, many of the tests here
fail due to differences between the two. Just skip the tests for now
when using fmake.
