This is the present state of CTM version 2. Please do not ask for
subscriptions yet. Wait for the announcement.
CTM is my humble attempt to get -current out to people beyond TCP/IP
connections. This is for people with dial-up connections and such.
CTM can make a delta from one version to another of a source-tree, in
a efficient and verified way. Even if there are binary files in the
tree. It will even try to make the delta as small as possible.
It is OK with me if you yell "Bloating!" but I'll just forward your email
to some of the happy customers from CTM version 1, and let them tell you
what they think.
I will not put ctm into "make world" yet. For now it is just the logical
way to get the sources out to people who helps me test this.
Change level of setlocale hack enabling from compile option STARTUP_LOCALE
to check (via getenv) environment variable "ENABLE_STARTUP_LOCALE" at
runtime.
Submitted by: me per Bruce suggestion
Modified DEPENDS rule so that anything you depend on gets both
made AND installed. Folks, check out DEPENDS if you have one port
that depends on another! With this change, it should be really convenient
to use.
Restore the simple leap year calculation as a macro and document it so
that it doesn't become complicated again. The simple version works
for all leap years covered by 32-bit time_t's. The complicated version
doesn't work for all leap years covered by 64-bit time_t's since among
other reasons, the solar system is not stable for long enough.
Use new-style declarations for min/max functions so that
"gcc -Wstrict-prototypes" doesn't emit warnings about them.
Write each min/max functions on a single line so that the similarity and
triviality of the functions is more obvious.
Put the quad min/max functions in the correct place (aphabetical order).
The u_quad min/max functions are missing. Only 3 or 4 of the min/max
functions are actually used. sys/socketvar.h ``should use "lmin" but
it doesn't exist now''. lmin does exist now, but isn't used. Since we
depend on gcc for `inline', perhaps we should depend on it for __typeof
and function-expressions and use only macros min() and max() that work
for any types (I'm not sure how to handle mixed types).
Make GCC's back end be shared among all languages. cc, c++, and cpp now
no longer link against the whole library, since they don't require much
from it, but just compile the few small modules they actually need static.
This should save a measurable amount of space; compare:
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 155648 Sep 18 18:00 cc1*
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 1048576 Sep 18 17:33 cc1.noshae*
Of course, the library takes up a bit of space, but when you add in the
savings from the C++ compiler, you more than make up the difference:
-r--r--r-- 1 bin bin 1157344 Sep 18 18:27 /usr/lib/libcc_int.so.26.0
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 491520 Sep 18 18:27 /usr/libexec/cc1plus*
Add (#ifdef'ed by STARTUP_LOCALE) following line to crt0.c
(void) setlocale(LC_ALL, "");
It will be easiest way now to make national chars available
for all ctype-oriented programs at once by simple:
setenv LANG Your_National_Charset
Default case (without "LANG" environment
variable) will be fully ANSI compatible (got "C" locale).
If "LANG" variable present, extention becomes active.
Effect of this extention is great: in one time all ctype
oriented programs can accept/print national characters
without any touching source/binary code, it is big win, IMHO.
This method is fully compatible with ISO8859-* and russian koi8-r
too (in general -- with all 8-bit character sets). I think
it is very useful.
I got this idea from Xenix locale implementation.
This extention is even never compiled in, unless you set
setenv STARTUP_LOCALE
before rebuilding crt0.c or corresponding variable in /etc/make.conf
1. Remove commented out CFLAGS+=-DDEBUG from Makefile
2. Clean up code so it compiles -Wall (except for sccsid's and copyright).
This included fixing several printf formats that where not correct,
and changing the data types of a few things.
3. Implement new option -i that produces indented mtree output files.
4. Implement new option -n that turns off directory comments.
5. Only emit /set records if something has changed since the last one.
This code is mostly taken from the 1.1 port (which was in turn taken from
Dave Mills's kern.tar.Z example). A few significant differences:
1) ntp_gettime() is now a MIB variable rather than a system call. A few
fiddles are done in libc to make it behave the same.
2) mono_time does not participate in the PLL adjustments.
3) A new interface has been defined (in <machine/clock.h>) for doing
possibly machine-dependent things around the time of the clock update.
This is used in Pentium kernels to disable interrupts, set `time', and
reset the CPU cycle counter as quickly as possible to avoid jitter in
microtime(). Measurements show an apparent resolution of a bit more than
8.14usec, which is reasonable given system-call overhead.
Added a missing ${DESTDIR}. The real problem is that stuff related to
floppy formatting is in /sys/i386/isa/fdreg.h, it should be in /usr/include
somewhere ??
Makefile: add ${LDDESTDIR} to linking of boot code so ${DESTDIR}/usr/lib
is used instead of /usr/lib
io.c: add #include <machine/cpufunc.h> as instructed by David Greenman to
avoid inb/outb linking errors.
NOTE: I just discovered that if GNUC is not used the inline functions will not be expanded from the include file and real inb/outb functions would
be needed.
Fixed the problem where the floppy has incorrectly failed probing
when the drive had been left on a cylinder > 67 after kernel boot. The
most common case for this is booting a kernel that is located on
the inner cylinders of a floppy.
Also removed all occurences of spinwait(), replaced by DELAY.
Nuked a return line saying nothing, this might make Bruce happy 8^)

First round of floppy changes. Try making `fd' more robust.
New features:
. ioctl command for setting the drive type (density etc.); restricted
to the super-user
. ioctl for getting/seting `drive options'; currently only option
is FDOPT_NORETRY: inhibit the usual retries; used when verifying
a newly formatted track
Fixes:
. function prototypes
. made all internal functions `static'
. cleaned up & corrected .h files
. restructured, to make the chaotic function sequence more rational
. compiled with -Wall, and cleared all warnings
. introduced a mirror for the (write-only) `digital output register',
to avoid the current kludge
. device probing completed by seeking/recalibrating, and looking
for track 0 being found
. holding the controller down in reset state while it is idle (and
thus saving allot of headaches)
. make requests fail that are not a multiple of the (physical)
sector size
. removed the fixed physical sector size (512 bytes), allowing for any
size the controller could handle (128/256/512/1024 bytes)
. replaced some silly messages
. fixed the TRACE* macro usage, debugging reports should be complete
now again (debugging output is HUGE! though)
. removed fd_timeout for SEEK command; seeks are always reported by
the controller to succeed, since the `success' only refers to the
controller's idea of success - there is no hardware line to tell about
the seek end (other than the `track 0' line)
. catch SENSEI's that report about a `terminated due to READY changed'
status - could happen after a controller reset
. converted ``hz / <something>'' divide operations to divisors that are
powers of two, so gcc can optimize them into shifts
. write/format operations are checked against a write-protected medium
now *prior* starting the operation
. error reports of `invalid command' and `wrong cylinder' will cause
shortcuts in the retrier() now
. fixed a bug in the retrier() causing bogus block numbers to be reported
. fdformat() does care for errors now
Known Bugs:
. no attempts have been made (yet) to improve the performance
. sometimes, bogus ``seek/recalib failed'' messages are logged; this
is still a bug in the driver, but it's not harmful since it's
usually caught by the retrier()

Changed CDOUTSTANDING back to a value of 2 (from 1), since this is now only
an upper limit, not a fixed value (ignoring the host adapter capabilities)
as before.
Per discussion on the mailing-lists, move LKMs from /sbin to /lkm, and
arrange for that directory to get created by mtree. Also, process secure
directory after all the others, because the programs there may overlay
ones installed from the main part of the tree.
Started cleaning up FAQ directory for 2.0.
Move old FAQ to FreeBSD-1.1.FAQ
Started new FAQ
Move old Systems to Systems-1.1.FAQ
Started new Systems
moved slip-dialup to Slip.FAQ (Needs to be reworked for 2.0)
Removed inclusion of pio.h and cpufunc.h (cpufunc.h is included from
systm.h). Merged functionality of pio.h into cpufunc.h. Cleaned up some
related code.
Add SYSV shm stuff back to LINT.
chflags noschg /kernel in Makefile.i386 so if our previous kernel
was installed by make install, the second won't fall over.

Improved bus probing, symbolic names for registers..
Chip set parameters get dumped for intel PCI chip sets
(82424+82434 only, for now).
Unmap hints file when finished with it, so that it can go away
completely when ldconfig unlinks it. If init is shared, then the
referenced unlinked copy of the hints file created by running
ldconfig in /etc/rc caused the file system to be unclean after
every reboot.
Don't exit early if the device is not character special or if the
device driver cannot supply a label (real or faked). This allows
you to practice using fdisk on disposable media (e.g., "dd count=1
<dev/zero >/tmp/junk; fdisk /tmp/junk", "dd count=1 </etc/passwd
>/tmp/fix-up-the-mess; fdisk /tmp/fix-up-the-mess") and allows me
to test DOSpartitioning and labelling on floppies.
Install osreldate.h with the correct owner, group and mode. It is still
created at install time and not compared with the current version, so
it can't be installed using install and the timestamp of the target gets
clobbered.
Add support for passive mode FTP (default off) to base FTP client to support
users behind packet filtering firewalls.

Added MCOUNT_ENTER and MCOUNT_EXIT macros to profile.h
Removed inb function since it's more correctly in pio.h
Copied write_eflags and read_eflags over from npx.c
(Some changes to the macros suggested by Bruce were not made at this
time since his suggestions probably apply to all the macros and
these inlined/macro definitions need a lot of cleaning up at some
point in the future.)
