vt(4) is a new console driver which brings features such as:
o Support for Unicode and double-width characters
o Integration with the KMS kernel video drivers
o Support for UEFI
You may need to update your console settings in /etc/rc.conf, most
probably the keymap. During boot, /etc/rc.d/syscons will indicate what
you need to do.
vt(4) still has issues and lacks some features compared to syscons(4).

workaround. Magic ".../share/mk" (search directories up to /)
does not work for f.e. /usr/src/gnu/lib/libgcc because the path
inside is starting from /usr/obj hierarchy and ends up in
/usr/share/mk, not in the /usr/src/share/mk where src.opts.mk is.
IMHO proper fixing of incremental build is needed urgently.
In r266650, we made libatf-c and libatf-c++ private libraries so that no
components outside of the source tree could unintendedly depend on them.
This change does the same for the "atf-sh library" by moving the atf-sh
interpreter from its public location in /usr/bin/ to the private location
in /usr/libexec/. Our build system will ensure that our own test programs
use the right binary, but users won't be able to depend on atf-sh by
"mistake".
Committing this now to ride the UPDATING notice added with r267172 today.
The libatf-* major version numbers in FreeBSD were one version ahead of
upstream because, when atf was first imported into FreeBSD, the upstream
numbers were not respected. This is just confusing and bound to cause
problems down the road.
Fix this by taking advantage of the fact that libatf-* are now private
and that atf is not yet built by default. However, and unfortunately, a
clean build is needed for tests to continue working once "make
delete-old-libs" has been run; hence the note in UPDATING.

COMPILER_TYPE without including the bsd.compiler.mk anymore. In the
source tree, this caused no problems, for reasons that aren't clear,
but does cause problems outside of the source tree. Allow
bsd.compiler.mk to be included multiple times safely, and always
include bsd.compiler.mk at the top of bsd.prog.mk. Resist the urge to
put it in bsd.init.mk, since that would reintroduce the implicit
include.

option is supported by both clang and gcc, in the future there
may be changes to clang which change the defaults that require
a tweak to build our kernel such that other tools in our tree
will work. Set a good example by forcing -gdwarf-2 only for
clang builds, and only if the user hasn't specified another
dwarf level already. Update UPDATING to reflect the changed
state of affairs. This also keeps us from having to update
all the ARM kernels to add this, and also keeps us from

mentioned in UPDATING, you can even do it as an as-needed operation after

There is no reason to keep the two knobs separate: if tests are

the ATF libraries are not necessary. Keeping the two just serves

This splits that functionality and enables the parts that shouldn't
interfere with the port by default.
WITH_ICONV (now on by default) - adds iconv.h, iconv_open(3) etc.
WITH_LIBICONV_COMPAT (off by default) adds the libiconv_open etc API, linker
symbols and even a stub libiconv.so.3 that are good enough to be able
to 'pkg delete -f libiconv' on a running system and reasonably expect it
to work.
I have tortured many machines over the last few days to try and reduce
the possibilities of foot-shooting as much as I can. I've successfully
recompiled to enable and disable the libiconv_compat modes, ports that use
libiconv alongside system iconv etc. If you don't enable the
WITH_LIBICONV_COMPAT switch, they don't share symbol space.
This is an extension of behavior on other system. iconv(3) is a standard
libc interface and libiconv port expects to be able to run alongside it on
systems that have it.

Formerly, a command like find dir1/dir2 -delete would delete everything
under dir1/dir2 but not dir1/dir2 itself.
When -L is not specified and "." can be opened, the fts(3) code underlying
find(1) is careful to avoid following symlinks or being dropped in different
locations by moving the directory fts is currently traversing. If a
problematic concurrent modification is detected, fts will not enter the
directory or abort. Files found in the search are returned via the current
working directory and a pathname not containing a slash.
For paranoia, find(1) verifies this when -delete is used. However, it is too
paranoid about the root of the traversal. It is already assumed that the
initial pathname does not refer to directories or symlinks that might be
replaced by untrusted users; otherwise, the whole traversal would be unsafe.
Therefore, it is not necessary to do the check for fts_level ==
FTS_ROOTLEVEL.
Deleting the pathnames given as arguments can be prevented without error
messages using -mindepth 1 or by changing directory and passing "." as
argument to find. This works in the old as well as the new version of find.
