534da91803 Terminate, with extreme prejudice, the USAResident hack which
does bad things to /etc/make.conf in certain situations.  Also
soften the "don't install crypto from the USA!" messages since,
except for RSA (which is still noted), that's not so true anymore.

510255570c Backout addition of -L switch to mtree. Using -L breaks the
build process in too many cases. Adding mtree to bootstrap-tools
to solve this breaks the upgrade path because mtree needs a
libc that has strtofflags and fflagstostr.

64eb7674fb - Don't use quotes for the MD_ROOT_SIZE option when generating the BOOTMFS
kernel config file.
- Add WORLD_FLAGS and KERNEL_FLAGS so you can build world and kernel with
  extra make options such as -jX to speed up release builds.
- When building kernels, allow their hints to tag along, and use this to
  install hints onto the boot floppy.  Since the boot floppy doesn't load
  loader.4th, we have to change device.hints to strip comments and change
  each line to an explicit set command.

1a45e35d8c From the PR:
1.  Correct FTP site for 4.0-stable snapshots and delete sentence
    fragment immediately following.
    [ not applicable to HEAD ]

2.  Add FDDI section to table of contents (see #5 below) and add
    one line of whitespace.

3.  In userland section, document csh->tcsh, more->less, and
    colorized ls.

4.  In Ethernet section, do:

        s/gigabit ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet/
        s/fast ethernet/Fast Ethernet/
        s/ethernet/Ethernet/

5.  Pull DEC DEFPA/DEFEA *FDDI* cards out of the *Ethernet* section
    and into their own second-level section.

6.  Add missing period in section header in ATM section.

7.  Tweak upgrading sectio with some new text, not sure if this is
    much better though.

8.  Add a blurb about the -stable mailing list.
    [ changed to -current list in HEAD ]

0f21f86dbf Add an empty crunch.inc with instructions that you can use it to adjust
the building of the crunched binary.

I'll add examples when I add the post-include mechanism, since the
crunch.mk environment stomps on the pre-included crunch.inc's variables
at the moment.

f270eba83c Make a separate build directory in which to put all the generated
objects, to simplify working with PicoBSD.

Add the ability to put make instructions in crunch.inc to pass to the
build process.

Now explicitly make the objects in our own object tree, since we want to
build the objects with our own defines, and allow this to occur in a
common object tree for all PicoBSD builds, if required.  This is
controlled by the COMM_OBJ variable, for those who don't want this -
setting it to /usr/obj again will just pick up the objects from your
last make buildworld, as before.

bc7cebd01f First part of PicoBSD makeover, adding basic 'obj' facilities, allowing
for read-only src tree.

While I'm there:
1) Use kgzip, not kzip, since kzip certainly doesn't make bootable
kernels anymore.  loader still isn't built separately, let alone without
forth support.  This needs to be fixed.

2) Expand the mount/vnconfig examples to be the defacto way of making
sure the filesystems are mounted, unmounted, or not configured.  This
needs more work.

3) quieten the build substantially, so errors are more prominent

4) Start of '-j' ability.  Current style isn't quite in the correct
dependency format for this, but obvious mistakes (changing directories
in main shell) are fixed.

2ab04c6f83 Squeeze the BOOTMFS kernel image some more. The Alpha kernel was simply
over flowing its britches.  So remove all ppbus bits except those for PLIP
(untested), and all USB bits as SRM does not know what USB is.  Also remove
/dev/random as I don't think we need it just for whacking bits onto a disk.

966a32cd5b Add support for the National Semiconductor DP83815 fast ethernet
controller chip. This chip is currently being used on the NetGear
FA312-TX adapter, which I guess is a replacement for the FA310-TX
(PNIC-based).

I added support for this chip by modifying the sis driver since
the SiS 900 and the NS DP83815 have almost the same programming
interface (the RX filter programming and PHY access methods are
different, but the general configuration, DMA scheme and register
layout are identical).

I would have had this done a lot sooner, but getting the damn MAC
address out of the EEPROM proved to be more complicated than expected.

19ea12d3ec Add a DOCDISTFILES variable to point to a directory containing the
distfiles to build the docproj port during release.  Prior to this, the
distfiles were copied froom ${DISTFILES}.  However, if like me, you needed
to store the distfiles in some directory other than /usr/ports/distfiles,
for example /usr/docdistfiles, then when you overrode ${DISTFILES} it broke
the release build when it tried to build docproj port in the chroot'd
release area.  To preserve backwards compatibility, DOCDISTFILES defaults
to the value of DISTFILES.

. Bring PicoBSD up to date with -CURRENT reality.
. Make PicoBSD smart and not spam /dev/vn0 and /mnt.  Now it uses the first
  unused vn device and creates a temporary mountpoint in /tmp.
. Miscellaneous build cleanups and optimizations.

Unfortunately the bridge, isp, and router floppies are too big and need
the axe treatment.  The install floppy needs updating to -CURRENT. Dial and
net build and (appear to) run OK.  I will be adressing these in the
near future (unless someone beats me to it :-) ).

3f47f4c57c Convert "RELENG_ver_RELEASE" to "RELEASE_ver" and use it to check out
the ports and doc trees.  There is no change if we are not building a
release (i.e., we are not using a tag of the form RELENG_ver_RELEASE
--e.g., a RELENG_ver tag used to build a snapshot).

This should allow the ports and doc freezes during the release cycles
to be somewhat shorter, as commits to those (non-branched) trees can
resume as soon as the tags are laid down.
