Add necessary changes to the kernel for this (basically introduce a
bpf_zero_counters() function). As well, update the man page.

system callers of getgroups(), getgrouplist(), and setgroups() to
allocate buffers dynamically. Specifically, allocate a buffer of size
sysconf(_SC_NGROUPS_MAX)+1 (+2 in a few cases to allow for overflow).
This (or similar gymnastics) is required for the code to actually follow
the POSIX.1-2008 specification where {NGROUPS_MAX} may differ at runtime
and where getgroups may return {NGROUPS_MAX}+1 results on systems like
FreeBSD which include the primary group.
In id(1), don't pointlessly add the primary group to the list of all
groups, it is always the first result from getgroups(). In principle
the old code was more portable, but this was only done in one of the two
places where getgroups() was called to the overall effect was pointless.
Document the actual POSIX requirements in the getgroups(2) and
setgroups(2) manpages. We do not yet support a dynamic NGROUPS, but we
may in the future.

While hacking on TTY code, I often miss a small utility to revoke my own
(pseudo-)terminals. This small utility is just a small wrapper around
the revoke(2) call, so you can destroy your very own login sessions.

The chpass Makefile tried to set the fschg flag on the binaries, even if
NO_FSCHG was passed to the installworld. This meant that if I installed
FreeBSD into a Jail, I couldn't installworld from within the Jail
anymore.
Now that it listens to NO_FSCHG, we can just make it bail out when it
fails, just like PRECIOUSPROG does.
trying to open files rather than giving up when it encounters an
error. ENOENT errors are not reported.
As a result, files that are moved away then recreated are not at
risk of being 'lost' to tail. Files that are recreated and
temporarily have unreadable permissions will be shown when they
are fixed.
This behaviour is consistent with the GNU version of tail but
without the verbiage that goes with the GNU version.
This change also fixes error messages accompanying -f and -F.
They no longer report problems with (null)!

Some time ago Tom Rhodes sent me an email that he was willing to perform
various cleanups to the window(1) source code. After some discussion, we
both decided the best thing to do, was to move window(1) to the ports
tree. The application isn't used a lot nowadays, mainly because it has
been superseeded by screen, tmux, etc.
A couple of hours ago Tom committed window(1) to ports (misc/window), so
I'm removing it from the tree. I don't think people will really miss it,
but I'm describing the change in UPDATING anyway.

an accessor function to get the correct rnh pointer back.
Update netstat to get the correct pointer using kvm_read()
as well.
This not only fixes the ABI problem depending on the kernel
option but also permits the tunable to overwrite the kernel
option at boot time up to MAXFIBS, enlarging the number of
FIBs without having to recompile. So people could just use
GENERIC now.

This version is now licensed under a 2-clause BSD license, instead of
the Artistic license. I've reverted a lot of local modifications we made
to ee, because they have been integrated upstream as well.
Only local modifications include:
- $FreeBSD$ ID.
- Pathname to init.ee.
- catopen() call, to honor LC_MESSAGES instead of LANG.
To keep SVN happy, I'm putting an application/octet-stream mime type on
the KOI8 translations.

and jail_get(2). Jail(8) can now create jails using a "name=value"
format instead of just specifying a limited set of fixed parameters; it
can also modify parameters of existing jails. Jls(8) can display all
parameters of jails, or a specified set of parameters. The available
parameters are gathered from the kernel, and not hard-coded into these
programs.
Small patches on killall(1) and jexec(8) to support jail names with
jail_get(2).

The source file, manual page and English translation are now directly

I don't entirely like this approach, but it will only be temporarily,
namely until we get rid of COMPAT_43TTY. I do want <sys/ioctl_compat.h>
to cause a compiler error when included, because it's just there for
binary compatibility.

First of all, current behavior is not documented and confusing,
and it can be very dangerous in the following sequence:
find -L . -type l
find -L . -type l -delete
(the second line is even suggested by find(1)).
Instead simply refuse to proceed when -L and -delete are both used.
A descriptive error message is provided.
The following command can be safely used to remove broken links:
find -L . -type l -print0 | xargs rm -0
To do: update find(1)

At first I allowed ioctl_compat.h to be included, but it just returned
an empty file. I had to do this, to keep kdump happy. I really want to
raise a compiler error when including this header, so now it will just
throw an error if you don't set COMPAT_43TTY.
