No functional change (in program code). Additional DWARF metadata is generated in the .eh_frame section. Also, it is now a compile-time requirement that machine/asm.h ENTRY() and END() macros are paired. (This is subject to ongoing discussion and may change.) This DWARF metadata allows llvm-libunwind to unwind program stacks when the program is executing the function. The goal is to collect accurate userspace stacktraces when programs have entered syscalls. (The motivation for "Call Frame Information," or CFI for short -- not to be confused with Control Flow Integrity -- is to sufficiently annotate assembly functions such that stack unwinders can unwind out of the local frame without the requirement of a dedicated framepointer register; i.e., -fomit-frame-pointer. This is necessary for C++ exception handling or collecting backtraces.) For the curious, a more thorough description of the metadata and some examples may be found at [1] and documentation at [2]. You can also look at 'cc -S -o - foo.c | less' and search for '.cfi_' to see the CFI directives generated by your C compiler.

FreeBSD
FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory. Additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information.
The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree.
