d2fcbc31f7 cleanup a danging reference to cleaning up /etc/fstab. Since we don't
support 4->6 upgrades, this is moot.  Most 4.x installations even,
have things compatible with 5 at thsi point, but some don't, so I'll
leave it in the branch...

e5a9c072c1 Change the definition of struct if_data's member ifi_epoch from wall
clock time to uptime because wall clock time may go backwards.

This is a change in the API which will impact SNMP agents who are using
ifi_epoch to set RFC2233's ifCounterDiscontinuityTime.  None are know to
exist today.  This will not impact applications that are using the
<index, epoch> tuple to verify interface uniqueness except that it
eliminates a race which could lead to a false assumption of uniqueness.

Because this is a behavior change, bump __FreeBSD_version.

3155a16bbf Welcome to the 21st century: increase MAXSHELLCMDLEN from 128 bytes to
PAGE_SIZE.

Unlike originator of the PR suggests retain MAXSHELLCMDLEN definition
(he has been proposing to replace it with PAGE_SIZE everywhere), not only
this reduced the diff significantly, but prevents code obfuscation and also
allows to increase/decrease this parameter easily if needed.

50c3fd3802 As threatened, trim the UDPATING file to the branchpoint for RELENG_5.
People wishing to see prior changes are encouraged to look at the
UPDATING file on the RELENG_5 branch.  Document when RELENG_5 was
branched, as well as the 5.3 release date, as shown in the CVS logs
for newvers.sh.

This change should not be MFC'd.

d06f3bef4e Remove RFC1644 T/TCP support from the TCP side of the network stack.
A complete rationale and discussion is given in this message
and the resulting discussion:

 http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?4177C8AD.6060706

Note that this commit removes only the functional part of T/TCP
from the tcp_* related functions in the kernel.  Other features
introduced with RFC1644 are left intact (socket layer changes,
sendmsg(2) on connection oriented protocols)  and are meant to
be reused by a simpler and less intrusive reimplemention of the
previous T/TCP functionality.

People have a tendency to add things to libmap.conf and forget about them

b65eae4c19 Add an additional struct inpcb * argument to pfil(9) in order to enable
passing along socket information. This is required to work around a LOR with
the socket code which results in an easy reproducible hard lockup with
debug.mpsafenet=1. This commit does *not* fix the LOR, but enables us to do
so later. The missing piece is to turn the filter locking into a leaf lock
and will follow in a seperate (later) commit.

This will hopefully be MT5'ed in order to fix the problem for RELENG_5 in
forseeable future.

84038e9ef8 Amend the named chroot update instructions by adding a stop and start
of syslogd. The rc.d/syslogd script has the logic already to create
a socket in the chroot dir, it just needs to be restarted.

a0c7847c5b Create a named chroot directory structure in /var/named, and use it
by default when named is enabled. Also, improve our default directory
layout by creating /var/named/etc/namedb/{master|slave} directories,
and use the former for the generated localhost* files.

Rather than using pax to copy device entries, mount devfs in the
chroot directory.

There may be some corner cases where things need to be adjusted,
but overall this structure has been well tested on a production
network, and should serve the needs of the vast majority of users.

UPDATING has instructions on how to do the conversion for those
with existing configurations.
