it would stop both lockd and statd, but it would restart only statd (which appears first
in the script). This is because rc.subr(8) contains code to guard against infinite
recursion in the 'restart' casae.
To fix this use the traditional approach of controlling only one server from one script by
breaking out rc.d/nfslocking into its contituent parts: rc.d/lockd and rc.d/statd. Keep
rc.d/nfslocking around but don't include it in the boot rcorder(8)ing.

Improvements:
* /etc/rc.suspend,rc.resume are always run, no matter the source of the
suspend request (user or kernel, apm or acpi)
* suspend now requires positive user acknowledgement. If a user program
wants to cancel the suspend, they can. If one of the user programs
hangs or doesn't respond within 10 seconds, the system suspends anyway.
* /dev/apm is clonable, allowing multiple listeners for suspend events.
In the future, xorg-server can use this to be informed about suspend
even if there are other listeners (i.e. apmd).
Changes:
* Two new ACPI ioctls: REQSLPSTATE and ACKSLPSTATE. Request begins the
process of suspending by notifying all listeners. acpi is monitored by
devd(8) and /dev/apm listener(s) are also counted. Users register their
approval or disapproval via Ack. If anyone disapproves, suspend is vetoed.
* Old user programs or kernel modules that used SETSLPSTATE continue to
work. A message is printed once that this interface is deprecated.
* acpiconf gains the -k flag to ack the suspend request. This flag is
undocumented on purpose since it's only used by /etc/rc.suspend. It is
not intended to be a permanent change and will be removed once a better
power API is implemented.
* S5 (power off) is no longer supported via acpiconf -s 5 or apm -z/-Z.
This restores previous behavior of halt/shutdown -p being the interface.
* Miscellaneous improvements to error reporting

best practices:
1. The old way of generating the localhost zones was not optimal both
because they did not exist by default, and because they were not really
aligned with BCP. There is no need to have the dynamic data that the
make-localhost script generated, and good reasons to do this more
"by the book."
2. In named.conf
a. Clean up white space
b. Add/clarify a few comments
c. Slave zones from the root servers instead of using a hints
file. This has several advantages, as described in the comments.
d. Significantly revamp the default zones, including the
forward localhost zone, and the reverse zones for IPv4 and IPv6
loopback addresses. There are extensive comments describing what
is included and why. Interested readers should take the time to
review the RFCs mentioned in the comments. There is also relevant
information about the motivations for hosting these zones in the
"work in progress" Internet-Draft,
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dnsop-default-local-zones-02.txt
or its successor.
It's also worth noting that a significant number of these
empty zones are already included by default in the named binary
without any user configuration.
e. Because we're including a lot of examples of both local
forward zones and slave zones in the default configuration,
eliminate some of those examples.
3. Add new localhost-{forward|reverse} zone files, and an "empty" zone
to support the changes in 2.d. above. The empty zone file isn't really
empty in order to avoid a warning from BIND about a zone file that
doesn't contain any A or AAAA records.

the moment by nologin(5), or whatever, depending on cron's pam.conf(5).
This applies to personal crontabs only, /etc/crontab is unaffected.
In other words, now the account management policy will apply to
commands scheduled by users via crontab(1) so that a user can no
longer use cron(8) to set up a delayed backdoor and run commands
during periods when the admin doesn't want him to.
The PAM check is done just before running a command, not when loading
a crontab, because accounts can get locked, expired, and re-enabled
any time with no changes to their crontabs. E.g., imagine that you
provide a system with payed access, or better a cluster of such
systems with centralized account management via PAM. When a user
pays for some days of access, you set his expire field respectively.
If the account expires before its owner pays more, its crontab
commands won't run until the next payment is made. Then it'll be
enough to set the expire field in future for the commands to run
again. And so on.
Document this change in the cron(8) manpage, which includes adding
a FILES section and touching the document date.

arrangement that has no intrinsic internal knowledge of whether devices
it is given are truly multipath devices. As such, this is a simplistic
approach, but still a useful one.
The basic approach is to (at present- this will change soon) use camcontrol
to find likely identical devices and and label the trailing sector of the
first one. This label contains both a full UUID and a name. The name is
what is presented in /dev/multipath, but the UUID is used as a true
distinguishor at g_taste time, thus making sure we don't have chaos
on a shared SAN where everyone names their data multipath as "Fred".
The first of N identical devices (and N *may* be 1!) becomes the active
path until a BIO request is failed with EIO or ENXIO. When this occurs,
the active disk is ripped away and the next in a list is picked to
(retry and) continue with.
During g_taste events new disks that meet the match criteria for existing
multipath geoms get added to the tail end of the list.
Thus, this active/passive setup actually does work for devices which
go away and come back, as do (now) mpt(4) and isp(4) SAN based disks.
There is still a lot to do to improve this- like about 5 of the 12
recommendations I've received about it, but it's been functional enough
for a while that it deserves a broader test base.

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

After a change of devd.conf, devd(8) handles NIC attach/detach event
by using /etc/pccard_ether with the interface name as the argument.
This model does not work properly with IPv6 configuration because the
implementation of IPv6 stateless auto-configuration in the FreeBSD
rc.d scripts depends on whether there are any explicit configurations
for interfaces or not. It works this way: if no manual configuration,
it will perform auto-configuration, but otherwise no
auto-configuration will be performed. So, this behavior can only be
determined by all of the interfaces on a system, not a single one.
For this reason, the network6_interface_setup() function called from
the pccard_ether_start() does not work with a single interface name.
And what is worse, this combination of devd.conf and
pccard_ether_start() caused a bad side-effect that when
ipv6_enable=YES, all of interfaces marked as DOWN would be UP
unconditionally (and router solicitation was sent) just after devd(8)
was invoked. This should be fixed in a more sophisticated way.
A kernel with INET6 always has ::1 on lo0, so in the case of
ipv6_enable="NO" the lo0 can have ::1 with no link-local address.
This is a violation of the IPv6 specification. As a workaround for
this situation, fe80::1 is added in rc.d/auto_linklocal when lo0 has
no link-local address. This should not be harmful for IPv4-only users.

User land applications affected by this commit are ppp and natd:
if libalias.conf is present in /etc you won't notice any difference.
The only kernel land bit affected by this commit is ng_nat:
if you are using ng_nat, and it doesn't correctly handle
ftp/irc/etcetc sessions anymore, remember to kldload
the correspondent module (i.e. kldload alias_ftp).
General information and details about the inner working are available
in the libalias man page under the section 'MODULAR ARCHITECTURE
(AND ipfw(4) SUPPORT)'.
NOTA BENE: this commit affects _ONLY_ libalias, ipfw in-kernel nat
support will be part of the next libalias-related commit.

chance to actually terminate the audit service and exit. Otherwise, on
an rc.d/auditd restart, the new audit daemon instance may try to start
auditing while the previous session is still running. Likewise, this
ensures a chance for auditd to terminate the audit trail at system
shutdown.
Perhaps more ideally, the script would wait synchronously for auditd to
exit rather than for an arbitrary but short period of time.

interface is an IPv6 interface.
Use this method to decide if we should attempt to configure an interface
with an IPv6 address in pccard_ether. The mechanism pccard_ether uses
to do this is unsuited to the task because it assumes the list of
interfaces it is passed is the full list of IPv6 interfaces and makes
decissions based on that. This is at least a step in the right
direction and is probably about as much as we can MFC safely.

certain conditions. I haven't been able to find a better solution yet:
- Set a two read-only variables (${prefix} and ${etcdir}). This is
especially useful when using /etc/rc.d scripts with third-party
software installed from ports.
- Fix rc.d/sshd to work with openssh from ports using ${etcdir}
instead of hardcoded /etc.
- Reflect prefix/etcdir changes in rc.subr.8.

it limits the width of its output to the value of $COLUMNS, or
what TIOCGWINSZ reports, or 79 columns. We should specify -ww
to ps(1) so that it removes the limit and prints lines in full.
Otherwise very long command pathnames could be mishandled, e.g.,
by _find_processes().

despite the interface link status.
Add dhclient_flags_iface and background_dhclient_iface rc.conf options.
(where iface is a specific interface). These can be used to give
interface specific flags to dhclient.

touch interfaces that don't actually exist in the stop case. In the
process move some IPv4 specific code from ifconfig_down to ipv4_down.
This should solve problems with ifconfig: error messages on boot when
interfaces are renamed.
