documention.
Commit SVN r364219 / Git 8a0edc914f changed random(9) to be a shim around
prng32(9) and inadvertently caused random(9) to begin returning numbers in the
range [0,2^32-1] instead of [0,2^31-1], where the latter has been the documented
range for decades.
The increased output range has been identified as the source of numerous bugs in
code written against the historical output range e.g. ipfw "prob" rules and
stats(3) are known to be affected, and a non-exhaustive audit of the tree
identified other random(9) consumers which are also likely affected.
As random(9) is deprecated and slated for eventual removal in 14.0, consumers
should gradually be audited and migrated to prng(9).

This warning is very rarely useful (inline is a hint and not mandatory).
This flag results in many warnings being printed when compiling C++
code that uses the standard library with GCC.
This flag was originally added in back in r94332 but the flag is a no-op
in Clang ("This diagnostic flag exists for GCC compatibility, and has no
effect in Clang"). Removing it should make the GCC build output slightly
more readable.

After length decisions, we've decided that the if_wg(4) driver and
related work is not yet ready to live in the tree. This driver has
larger security implications than many, and thus will be held to
more scrutiny than other drivers.
Please also see the related message sent to the freebsd-hackers@
and freebsd-arch@ lists by Kyle Evans <kevans@FreeBSD.org> on
2021/03/16, with the subject line "Removing WireGuard Support From Base"
for additional context.
These ioctl commands aim to provide easier ways for user space
applications to enumerate existing audio devices and the node they can
potentially use.
The exchange of device lists between user space and kernel is done on
nv(9). Some ioctl commands are added to /dev/sndstat node:
- SNDSTAT_REFRESH_DEVS
- SNDSTAT_GET_DEVS
- SNDSTAT_ADD_USER_DEVS
- SNDSTAT_FLUSH_USER_DEVS
Bump __FreeBSD_version to reflect the addition of the ioctls.

This is the culmination of about a week of work from three developers to
fix a number of functional and security issues. This patch consists of
work done by the following folks:
- Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>
- Matt Dunwoodie <ncon@noconroy.net>
- Kyle Evans <kevans@FreeBSD.org>
Notable changes include:
- Packets are now correctly staged for processing once the handshake has
completed, resulting in less packet loss in the interim.
- Various race conditions have been resolved, particularly w.r.t. socket
and packet lifetime (panics)
- Various tests have been added to assure correct functionality and
tooling conformance
- Many security issues have been addressed
- if_wg now maintains jail-friendly semantics: sockets are created in
the interface's home vnet so that it can act as the sole network
connection for a jail
- if_wg no longer fails to remove peer allowed-ips of 0.0.0.0/0
- if_wg now exports via ioctl a format that is future proof and
complete. It is additionally supported by the upstream
wireguard-tools (which we plan to merge in to base soon)
- if_wg now conforms to the WireGuard protocol and is more closely
aligned with security auditing guidelines
Note that the driver has been rebased away from using iflib. iflib
poses a number of challenges for a cloned device trying to operate in a
vnet that are non-trivial to solve and adds complexity to the
implementation for little gain.
The crypto implementation that was previously added to the tree was a
super complex integration of what previously appeared in an old out of
tree Linux module, which has been reduced to crypto.c containing simple
boring reference implementations. This is part of a near-to-mid term
goal to work with FreeBSD kernel crypto folks and take advantage of or
improve accelerated crypto already offered elsewhere.
There's additional test suite effort underway out-of-tree taking
advantage of the aforementioned jail-friendly semantics to test a number
of real-world topologies, based on netns.sh.
Also note that this is still a work in progress; work going further will
be much smaller in nature.

This lets one interrupt DDB's output, which is useful if paging is
disabled and the output device is slow.
This follows a previous implementation in svn r311952 / git
5fddef7999 which was reverted because it
broke DDB type-ahead.
Now, try this again, but with a 512-byte type-ahead buffer. While there
is buffer space, control input is handled and non-control input is
buffered. When the buffer is exhausted, the default is to print a
warning and drop further non-control input in order to continue handling
control input. sysctl debug.ddb.prioritize_control_input can be set to
0 to instead preserve all input but lose immediate handling of control
input. This could for example effect pasting of a large script into the
ddb console.

config_intrhook_drain will remove the hook from the list as
config_intrhook_disestablish does if the hook hasn't been called. If it has,
config_intrhook_drain will wait for the hook to be disestablished in the normal
course (or expedited, it's up to the driver to decide how and when
to call config_intrhook_disestablish).
This is intended for removable devices that use config_intrhook and might be
attached early in boot, but that may be removed before the kernel can call the
config_intrhook or before it ends. To prevent all races, the detach routine will
need to call config_intrhook_train.
