The separate script is needed because in the presence of various
interface lists in rc.conf ($network_interfaces, $cloned_interfaces,
$sppp_interfaces, $gif_interfaces, more to come) it is hard to start
them orderly, so that pfsync is brought up after its syncdev, which
is required for the proper startup of pfsync.

shutdown procedures (which have a duration of more than 120 seconds).
We have two user-space affecting shutdown timeouts: a "soft" one in
/etc/rc.shutdown and a "hard" one in init(8). The first one can be
configured via /etc/rc.conf variable "rcshutdown_timeout" and defaults
to 30 seconds. The second one was originally (in 1998) intended to be
configured via sysctl(8) variable "kern.shutdown_timeout" and defaults
to 120 seconds.
Unfortunately, the "kern.shutdown_timeout" was declared "unused" in 1999
(as it obviously is actually not used within the kernel itself) and
hence was intentionally but misleadingly removed in revision 1.107 from
init_main.c. Kernel sysctl(8) variables are certainly a wrong way to
control user-space processes in general, but in this particular case the
sysctl(8) variable should have remained as it supports init(8), which
isn't passed command line flags (which in turn could have been set via
/etc/rc.conf), etc.
As there is already a similar "kern.init_path" sysctl(8) variable which
directly affects init(8), resurrect the init(8) shutdown timeout under
sysctl(8) variable "kern.init_shutdown_timeout". But this time document
it as being intentionally unused within the kernel and used by init(8).
Also document it in the manpages init(8) and rc.conf(5).

of the form "REFUSE foo" in portsnap.conf will result in parts of the
tree matching "^foo" being (a) not extracted by "portsnap extract", (b)
not updated by "portsnap update", and (c) not having any patches or new
ports downloaded by "portsnap fetch" or "portsnap cron". The example
shown in portsnap.conf demonstrates ignoring all the language categories.
As mentioned in portsnap.conf.5, the use of an imcomplete ports tree is
not officially supported; but this is something which many users have
requested, so I'm adding it anyway.

- Add a new ifconfig_<ifn> keyword, NOAUTO which prevents configuration
of an interface at boot or via /etc/pccard_ether. This allows
/etc/rc.d/netif to be used to start and stop an interface on a purely
manual basis. The decision to affect pccard_ether may be revisited at
a later date.

fast, lightweight, and generally good way for users to keep their
ports trees up to date.
This is version 0.9.4 from the ports tree (sysutils/portsnap) with
the following changes:
1. The experimental pipelined http code is enabled. No seatbelts
in -CURRENT. (^_^)
2. The working directory has moved from /usr/local/portsnap to
/var/db/portsnap (as discussed on -arch two days ago).
3. Portsnap now fetches a list of mirrors (distributed as DNS SRV
records) and selects one randomly. This should help to avoid the
uneven loading which plagues the cvsup mirror network.
4. The license is now 2-clause BSD instead of 3-clause BSD.
5. Various incidental changes to make portsnap fit into the base
system's build mechanics.

These can be used to pass extra options to the mdmfs(8) utility,
to customize the finer details of the md file system creation
(i.e. to turn on/off softupdates, to specify a default owner for md
filesystem, etc).
Use these two new flags to mount tmpmfs and varmfs without
softupdates, since it doesn't make much sense to use SU on
malloc-backed file systems.

on the system.
To start/stop/check on a specific device give the device name as
the second argument to the script:
# /etc/rc.d/moused start ums0
To use different rc.conf(5) knobs with different mice use the device
name as part of the knob. For example, if the mouse device is ums0, then:
moused_ums0_enable=yes
moused_ums0_flags="-z 4"
moused_ums0_port="/dev/ums0"
Starting rc.d/moused without the device argument will use the standard
moused_* flags. So, this commit should not disrupt or change current usage.
To preserve current behaviour with respect to usb mice, which appear
automatically when inserted, there is a new knob, moused_nondefault_enable,
which will treat any devices without rc.conf knobs as enabled.
To minimize knobs in /etc/rc.conf, the device file and pid file are
auto-computed, so that in the typical case for a usb mouse you don't
need to add anything extra in /etc/rc.conf to get it working.
Additionally, this updates /etc/usbd.conf to use the rc.d/moused script so
people don't have to modify it to configure their usb mouse anymore.

good idea, as they appear in the whatis(1) output. So
replace them with the lowercase version of the document
title. While here, do some tiny markup fixes.
eg:

[/usr/bin/foo/]
...
matches any executable under the directory /usr/bin/foo/
Exact matches continue to function as before.
