This allows for much better use of SMP parallelism when - processing and forwarding local and remote network traffic.</p></li> - - <li><p>The development environment has been updated to GCC 3.4.2, Binutils - 2.15, and GDB 6.1</p></li> - - <li><p>The choices for graphical environments have been updated to include - X.org 6.7, Gnome 2.6.2 and KDE 3.3.0.</p></li> - </ul> - - <p>There has also been a significant focus on testing and bug-fixing with - this release, as well as the freezing of most kernel and userland APIs. - Users and vendors are encouraged to consider transitioning to it as - FreeBSD 5.x is no longer considered a 'New Technology' release series. - Information on migrating from FreeBSD 4.x to 5.x can be found at</p> - - <p><a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/5.3R/migration-guide.html"> - http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/5.3R/migration-guide.html</a></p> - - <p>For a complete list of new features and known problems, please see the - release notes and errata list, available at:</p> - - <p><a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/5.3R/relnotes.html"> - http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/5.3R/relnotes.html</a><br/> - <a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/5.3R/errata.html"> - http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/5.3R/errata.html</a></p> - - <p>For more information about FreeBSD release engineering activities, - please see:</p> - - <p><a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/releng">http://www.FreeBSD.org/releng</a></p> - - <h2>Availability</h2> - - <p>FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE supports the i386, pc98, alpha, sparc64, amd64, and - ia64 architectures and can be installed directly over the net using - bootable media or copied to a local NFS/FTP server.

Alpha machines are -NOT like PCs. There are considerable differences between the various core logic chip sets -and mainboard designs. This means that a kernel needs to know the intimate details of a -particular machine before it can run on it. Throwing some odd <tt -class="FILENAME">GENERIC</tt> kernel at unknown hardware is almost guaranteed to fail -miserably.</p> - -<p>For a machine even to be considered for FreeBSD use please make sure it has the SRM -console firmware installed. Or at least make sure that SRM console firmware is available -for the particular machine type. If FreeBSD does not currently support your machine type, -there is a good chance that this will change at some point in time, assuming SRM is -available. All bets are off when SRM console firmware is not available.</p> - -<p>Machines with the ARC or AlphaBIOS console firmware were intended for WindowsNT. Some -have SRM console firmware available in the system ROMs which you only have to select (via -an ARC or AlphaBIOS menu). In other cases you will have to re-flash the ROMs with SRM -code. Check on http://ftp.digital.com/pub/DEC/Alpha/firmware to see what is available for -your particular system. In any case: no SRM means <span class="emphasis"><i -class="EMPHASIS">no</i></span> FreeBSD (or NetBSD, OpenBSD, Tru64 Unix or OpenVMS for -that matter). With the demise of WindowsNT/alpha a lot of former NT boxes are sold on the -second hand market. They have little or no trade-in value when they are NT-only from the -console firmware perspective. So, be suspicious if the price appears too good.</p> - -<p>Known non-SRM machines are:</p> - -<ul> -<li> -<p>Digital XL series</p> -</li> - -<li> -<p>Digital XLT series</p> -</li> - -<li> -<p>Samsung PC164UX (``Ruffian'')</p> -</li> - -<li> -<p>Samsung 164B</p> -</li> -</ul> - -<p>Machines that have SRM but are not supported by FreeBSD are:</p> - -<ul> -<li> -<p>DECpc 150 (``Jensen'')</p> -</li> - -<li> -<p>DEC 2000/300 (``Jensen'')</p> -</li> - -<li> -<p>DEC 2000/500 (``Culzean'')</p> -</li> - -<li> -<p>AXPvme series (``Medulla'')</p> -</li> -</ul> - -<p>To complicate things a bit further: Digital used to have so called ``white-box'' Alpha -machines destined as NT-only and ``blue-box'' Alpha machines destined for OpenVMS and -Digital Unix. These names are based on the color of the cabinets, ``FrostWhite'' and -``TopGunBlue'' respectively. Although you could put the SRM console firmware on a -whitebox, OpenVMS and Digital Unix will refuse to boot on them. FreeBSD in -post-4.0-RELEASE will run on both the white and the blue-box variants. Before someone -asks: the white ones had a rather different (read: cheaper) Digital price tag.</p> - -<p>As part of the SRM you will get the so called OSF/1 PAL code (OSF/1 being the initial -name of Digital's UNIX offering on Alpha). The PAL code can be thought of as a software -abstraction layer between the hardware and the operating system. It uses normal CPU -instruction plus a handful of privileged instructions specific for PAL use. PAL is not -microcode. The ARC console firmware contains a different PAL code, geared towards WinNT -and in no way suitable for use by FreeBSD (or more generic: Unix or OpenVMS). Before -someone asks: Linux/alpha brings its own PAL code, allowing it to boot on ARC and -AlphaBIOS. There are various reasons why this is not a very good idea in the eyes of the -*BSD folks. I don't want to go into details here. If you are interested in the gory -details search the FreeBSD and NetBSD web sites.</p> - -<p>There is another pitfall ahead: you will need a disk adapter that the SRM console -firmware recognizes in order to be able to boot from a disk. What is acceptable to SRM as -a boot adapter is unfortunately highly system and SRM version dependent. For older PCI -based machines it means you will need either a NCR/Symbios 53C810 based adapter, or a -Qlogic 1020/1040 based adapter. Some machines come with a SCSI chip embedded on the -mainboard. Newer machine designs and SRM versions will be able to work with more modern -SCSI chips/adapters. Check out the machine specific info below. Please note that the rest -of this discussion only refers to Symbios chips, this is meant to include the older chips -that still have NCR stamped on them. Symbios bought NCR sometime.</p> - -<p>The problem might bite those who have machines that started their lives as WindowsNT -boxes. The ARC or AlphaBIOS knows about <span class="emphasis"><i -class="EMPHASIS">other</i></span> adapter types that it can boot from than the SRM. For -example you can boot from an Adaptec 2940UW with ARC/AlphaBios but (generally) not with -SRM. Some newer machine types have introduced Adaptec boot support. Please consult the -machine specific section for details.</p> - -<p>Most adapters that cannot be booted from work fine for data-only disks. The -differences between SRM and ARC could also get you pre-packaged IDE CDROMs and hard -drives in some (former WindowsNT) systems. SRM versions exist (depends on the machine -type) that can boot from IDE disks and CDROMs. Check the machine specific section for -details.</p> - -<p>FreeBSD 4.0 and later can be booted from the distribution CDROM. Earlier versions -needed booting from a 2 disk floppy set.</p> - -<p>In order to be bootable the root partition (partition a) must be at offset 0 of the -disk drive. This means you have to use the installer's partitioning menu and start with -assigning partition a at offset 0 to the root partition. Subsequently layout the rest of -the partitions to your liking. If you do not adhere to this rule the install will proceed -just fine, but the system will not be bootable from the freshly installed disk.</p> - -<p>If you don't have/want a local disk drive you can boot via the Ethernet. This assumes -an Ethernet adapter/chip that is recognized by the SRM console. Generally speaking this -boils down to either a 21040 or 21142 or 21143 based Ethernet interface. Older machines -or SRM versions may not recognize the 21142 / 21143 Fast Ethernet chips, you are then -limited to using 10Mbit Ethernet for net booting those machines. Non-DEC cards based on -said chips will generally (but are not guaranteed to) work. Note that Intel took over the -21x4x chips when it bought Digital Semiconductor. So you might see an Intel logo on them -these days. Recent machine designs have SRM support for Intel 8255x Ethernet chips.</p> - -<p>Alpha machines can be run with SRM on a graphics console or on a serial console. ARC -can also be run on a serial consoles if need be. VT100 emulation with 8 bit controls -should at least allow you to switch from ARC/AlphaBIOS to SRM mode without having to -install a graphics card first.</p> - -<p>If you want to run your Alpha machine without a monitor/graphics card just don't -connect a keyboard/mouse to the machine. Instead hook up a serial terminal[emulator] to -serial port #1. The SRM will talk 9600N81 to you. This can also be really practical for -debugging purposes. Beware: some/most (?) SRMs will also present you with a console -prompt at serial port #2. The booting kernel, however, will display the boot messages on -serial port #1 and will also put the console there. <span class="emphasis"><i -class="EMPHASIS">This can be extremely confusing.</i></span></p> - -<p>Most PCI based Alphas can use ordinary PC-type VGA cards. The SRM contains enough -smarts to make that work. It does not, however, mean that each and every PCI VGA card out -on the street will work in an Alpha machine. Things like S3 Trio64, Mach64, and Matrox -Millennium generally work. Old ET4000 based ISA cards have also worked for me. But ask -around first before buying.</p> - -<p>Most PCI devices from the PC-world will also work in FreeBSD PCI-based machines. Check -the <tt class="FILENAME">/sys/alpha/conf/GENERIC</tt> file for the latest word on this. -Check the appropriate machine type's discussion in case you want to use PCI cards that -have PCI bridge chips on them. In some cases you might encounter problems with PCI cards -not handling PCI parity correctly. This can lead to panics. PCI parity checking can be -disabled using the following SRM command:</p> - -<pre class="SCREEN"> -<samp class="PROMPT">>>></samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">SET PCI_PARITY OFF</kbd> -</pre> - -<p>This is not a FreeBSD problem, all operating systems running on Alpha hardware will -need this workaround.</p> - -<p>If your system (also) contains EISA expansion slots you will need to run the EISA -Configuration Utility (ECU) after you have installed EISA cards or after you have -upgraded your console firmware.</p> - -<p>For Alpha CPUs you will find multiple generations. The original Alpha design is the -21064. It was produced in a chip process called MOS4, chips made in this process are -nicknamed EV4. Newer CPUs are 21164, 21264 etc. You will see designations like EV4S, -EV45, EV5, EV56, EV6, EV67, EV68. The EVs with double digit numbers are slightly improved -versions. For example EV45 has an improved FPU and 16 kByte on-chip separate I & D -caches compared to the EV4 on which it is based. Rule of thumb: the higher the digit -immediately following ``EV'' the more desirable (read: faster / more modern).</p> - -<p>For memory you want at least 32 Mbytes. I have had FreeBSD run on a 16 Mbyte system -but you will not enjoy that. Kernel build times halved when I went to 32 Mbytes. Note -that the SRM console steals 2Mbyte from the total system memory (and keeps it). For more -serious work 64 Mbytes or more are recommended.</p> - -<p>While on the subject of memory: pay close attention to the type of memory your machine -uses. There are very different memory configurations and requirements for the various -machines.</p> - -<p>Final word: I expect the above to sound a bit daunting to the first-time Alpha user. -Don't be daunted too much. And do feel free to ask questions if something is not clear -after reading this document.</p> -</div> - -<div class="SECT2"> -<hr /> -<h3 class="SECT2"><a id="AEN105" name="AEN105">2.3 System-specific information</a></h3> - -<p>Below is an overview of the hardware that FreeBSD runs on.

The Flash ROM is not big enough to hold both ARC -and SRM at the same time and allow software selection of alternate console code. But you -only need SRM anyway.</p> - -<p>Cache for the NoNames are 15 or 20 ns DIL chips. For a 256 kByte cache you want to -check your junked 486 mainboard. Chips for a 1 Mbyte cache are a rarer breed -unfortunately. Getting at least a 256kByte cache is recommended performance wise. -Cache-less they are really slow.</p> - -<p>The NoName mainboard has a PC/AT-standard power connector.

Some Intel's old documentation -refers to Intel EM64T as ``64-bit extension technology'' or ``IA-32e''.</p> - -<p>The largest tested memory configuration to date is 8GB. SMP support has been recently -completed and is reasonably robust.</p> - -<p>In many respects, FreeBSD/amd64 is similar to FreeBSD/i386, in terms of drivers -supported. There may be some issues with 64-bit cleanliness in some (particularly older) -drivers. Generally, drivers that already function correctly on other 64-bit platforms -should work.</p> - -<p>FreeBSD/amd64 is a very young platform on FreeBSD.

It lists devices -known to work on this platform, as well as some notes on boot-time kernel customization -that may be useful when attempting to configure support for new devices.</p> - -<div class="NOTE"> -<blockquote class="NOTE"> -<p><b>Note:</b> This document includes information specific to the i386 hardware -platform.

Due to the wide -range of hardware available for this architecture, it is impossible to exhaustively list -all combinations of equipment supported by FreeBSD. Nevertheless, some general guidelines -are presented here.</p> - -<p>Almost all i386-compatible processors are supported. All Intel processors beginning -with the 80386 are supported, including the 80386, 80486, Pentium, Pentium Pro, Pentium -II, Pentium III, Pentium 4, and variants thereof, such as the Xeon and Celeron -processors. (However, FreeBSD 5.2-RELEASE and later no longer support the 80386SX -processor.) All i386-compatible AMD processors are also supported, including the Am486, -Am5x86, K5, K6 (and variants), Athlon (including Athlon-MP, Athlon-XP, Athlon-4, and -Athlon Thunderbird), and Duron processors. The AMD Élan SC520 embedded processor -is supported. The Transmeta Crusoe is recognized and supported, as are i386-compatible -processors from Cyrix and NexGen.</p> - -<p>There is a wide variety of motherboards available for this architecture. Motherboards -using the ISA, VLB, EISA, AGP, and PCI expansion busses are well-supported. There is some -limited support for the MCA (``MicroChannel'') expansion bus used in the IBM PS/2 line of -PCs.</p> - -<p>Symmetric multi-processor (SMP) systems are generally supported by FreeBSD, although -in some cases, BIOS or motherboard bugs may generate some problems. Perusal of the -archives of the <a href="http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-smp" -target="_top">FreeBSD symmetric multiprocessing mailing list</a> may yield some -clues.</p> - -<p>FreeBSD will take advantage of HyperThreading (HTT) support on Intel CPUs that support -this feature. A kernel with the <var class="LITERAL">options SMP</var> feature -enabled will automatically detect the additional logical processors. The default FreeBSD -scheduler treats the logical processors the same as additional physical processors; in -other words, no attempt is made to optimize scheduling decisions given the shared -resources between logical processors within the same CPU. Because this naive scheduling -can result in suboptimal performance, under certain circumstances it may be useful to -disable the logical processors with the the <var -class="VARNAME">machdep.hlt_logical_cpus</var> sysctl variable. It is also possible to -halt any CPU in the idle loop with the <var class="VARNAME">machdep.hlt_cpus</var> sysctl -variable. The <a -href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=smp&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+5.3-RELEASE"> -<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span class="REFENTRYTITLE">smp</span>(4)</span></a> manual -page has more details.</p> - -<p>FreeBSD will take advantage of Physical Address Extensions (PAE) support on CPUs that -support this feature. A kernel with the <var class="LITERAL">PAE</var> feature enabled -will detect memory above 4 gigabytes and allow it to be used by the system. This feature -places constraints on the device drivers and other features of FreeBSD which may be used; -consult the <a -href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=pae&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+5.3-RELEASE"> -<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span class="REFENTRYTITLE">pae</span>(4)</span></a> manpage -for more details.</p> - -<p>FreeBSD will generally run on i386-based laptops, albeit with varying levels of -support for certain hardware features such as sound, graphics, power management, and -PCCARD expansion slots. These features tend to vary in idiosyncratic ways between -machines, and frequently require special-case support in FreeBSD to work around hardware -bugs or other oddities. When in doubt, a search of the archives of the <a -href="http://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-mobile" target="_top">FreeBSD -laptop computer mailing list</a> may be useful.</p> - -<p>Most modern laptops (as well as many desktops) use the Advanced Configuration and -Power Management (ACPI) standard. FreeBSD supports ACPI via the ACPI Component -Architecture reference implementation from Intel, as described in the <a -href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=acpi&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+5.3-RELEASE"> -<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span class="REFENTRYTITLE">acpi</span>(4)</span></a> manual -page. The use of ACPI causes instabilities on some machines and it may be necessary to -disable the ACPI driver, which is normally loaded via a kernel module. This may be -accomplished by adding the following line to <tt -class="FILENAME">/boot/device.hints</tt>:</p> - -<pre class="PROGRAMLISTING"> -hint.acpi.0.disabled="1" -</pre> - -<p>Users debugging ACPI-related problems may find it useful to disable portions of the -ACPI functionality.

Some machines have bad or incomplete DSDTs, which prevents ACPI from -functioning correctly. Replacement DSDTs for some machines can be found at the <a -href="http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/index.php" target="_top">DSDT</a> section of the -<a href="http://acpi.sourceforge.net/" target="_top">ACPI4Linux</a> project Web site. -FreeBSD can use these DSDTs to override the DSDT provided by the BIOS; see the <a -href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=acpi&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+5.3-RELEASE"> -<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span class="REFENTRYTITLE">acpi</span>(4)</span></a> manual -page for more information.</p> -</div> - -<div class="SECT1"> -<hr /> -<h2 class="SECT1"><a id="SUPPORT" name="SUPPORT">3 Supported Devices</a></h2> - -$FreeBSD: src/release/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/hardware/common/dev.sgml,v 1.227.2.14.2.1 -2004/11/03 00:18:51 simon Exp $ - -<p>This section describes the devices currently known to be supported by with FreeBSD on -the i386 platform.

The main branch is called ``CURRENT'', and is referred to in the CVS -repository with the <var class="LITERAL">HEAD</var> tag. New features are committed first -to this branch; although CURRENT is the first to see new functionality, it also -occasionally suffers from breakages as new features are added and debugged.</p> - -<p>Most FreeBSD releases are made from one of several ``STABLE'' branches. Features are -added to these branches only after some amount of testing in CURRENT. For the past two -years, the only STABLE branch under active development was known as ``4-STABLE'', and all -of the FreeBSD 4.<var class="REPLACEABLE">X</var> releases were based on it. This branch -has the tag <var class="LITERAL">RELENG_4</var> in the CVS repository.</p> - -<p>The past two stable branches (3-STABLE and 4-STABLE) were created very early in their -development cycles (their branchpoints were 3.1 and 4.0, respectively). In hindsight, -this practice did not give sufficient time for either CURRENT to stabilize before the new -branches were created. This in turn resulted in wasted effort porting bug fixes between -branches, as well as creating some architectural changes that could not be ported between -branches at all.</p> - -<p>The 5.<var class="REPLACEABLE">X</var> releases have been handled slightly -differently. FreeBSD 5.0, 5.1, and 5.2 were based on the CURRENT branch. The first of -these releases was made after over two years of development (prior to these, the last -release from HEAD was FreeBSD 4.0, in March 2000).</p> - -<p>Unlike prior ``STABLE'' branches, the ``5-STABLE'' branch in CVS (with the branch tag -<var class="LITERAL">RELENG_5</var>) was created more than a year after the first 5.<var -class="REPLACEABLE">X</var> release (specifically, during the 5.3 release cycle). This -delay gave time for the development team to complete needed architectural changes, -stabilize the system, finalize various interfaces, and create a good starting point for -the remaining 5.<var class="REPLACEABLE">X</var> releases.</p> - -<p>Aside from general improvements and bug fixes, a major priority for development on the -5-STABLE branch is the preservation of Application Binary Interface (ABI) and Application -Program Interface (API) compatibility. Any changes that could break backward -compatibility (including kernel or library interfaces) are strongly discouraged, and will -not be permitted except as a last-resort solution to a critical problem.</p> - -<p>The next release from CURRENT will likely be 6.0-RELEASE, created from CVS <var -class="LITERAL">HEAD</var>. There is no firm date for 6.0, as of the 5.3 release date, -although it is expected sometime in 2006.</p> - -<p>A limited amount of development will continue on the 4-STABLE development branch, with -at least one more release (4.11) planned at some point after 5.3-RELEASE. For especially -conservative users, it may be reasonable to continue using the 4.<var -class="REPLACEABLE">X</var> releases for a time. The Security Officer Team <code -class="EMAIL"><<a -href="mailto:security-officer@FreeBSD.org">security-officer@FreeBSD.org</a>></code> -will continue to support releases made from the 4-STABLE branch in accordance with their -published policies, which can be found on the <a -href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/security/index.html" target="_top">Security page</a> on the -FreeBSD web site.</p> - -<p>More information on FreeBSD release engineering processes can be found on the <a -href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/releng/index.html" target="_top">Release Engineering Web -pages</a> and in the <a -href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/releng/index.html" -target="_top">``FreeBSD Release Engineering''</a> article.</p> -</div> - -<div class="SECT1"> -<hr /> -<h2 class="SECT1"><a id="NEW" name="NEW">3 New Features</a></h2> - -<p>A major attraction of FreeBSD 5.<var class="REPLACEABLE">X</var> is a number of new -features, generally involving large architectural changes that were not feasible to port -back to the FreeBSD 4-STABLE development branch.

In some (hopefully rare) cases, user-visible data structures -have changed, requiring recompilation of applications or reinstallation of -ports/packages.

A number of other drivers for old ISA-based devices have been -discovered to be non-working and have been removed. More details are given in the release -notes.</p> -</li> - -<li> -<p>On FreeBSD/i386 4.<var class="REPLACEABLE">X</var>, the configuration of ISA devices -was initially specified in the kernel configuration. These could be modified at boot-time -with an interactive <b class="APPLICATION">UserConfig</b> utility. On FreeBSD 5.<var -class="REPLACEABLE">X</var>, both of these mechanisms have been replaced by the <a -href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=device.hints&sektion=5&manpath=FreeBSD+5.3-RELEASE"> -<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span class="REFENTRYTITLE">device.hints</span>(5)</span></a> -mechanism, which eliminates the need to hard-code ISA configuration parameters in the -kernel.

Flexibility - will be granted when deemed appropriate by the Release Engineering Team. - The ultimate purpose of this policy, however, is to minimize risks to the - release process and help encourage good release engineering practices.</p> - -<p>This policy applies to the BETA1 - BETA4, RC1 - RC2, and RELEASE release - engineering cycles for the RELENG_5 and RELENG_5_3 branches. During the - BETA cycle, the RELENG_5 branch will be frozen and under strict control - of the Release Engineering team. The HEAD branch will be used to validate - changes that are intended for this branch. Once the RELENG_5_3 branch is - created, the RELENG_5 branch will become unfrozen and will be the - validation ground for RELENG_5_3 changes. Changes should be committed - to all branches in sequence as appropriate.</p> - -<h1>Procedures</h1> -<p>When a branch is frozen by the release engineering team, all commits to it - must be approved by the team. This applies also to release engineering team - members as well as the rest of the developer community. In other words, - approval is mandatory. This largely applies to the src/ tree, as ports/, - doc/ and www/ tree management is handled separately by the ports and docs - teams as appropriate.</p> - -<p>To apply for a commit approval, a message must be sent to re@FreeBSD.org - with the description of exactly what files need to change and why. Including - a diff is encouraged, as is sending a copy of the commit message from the - parent branch if appropriate. A response should usually be expected within - 24 hours for less. Once approval is granted, the commit should be done as - soon as possible. Approved commits may be canceled or overridden by the - release engineering team if needed.</p> - -<p>Blanket approvals are a special case that can be requested and granted in - certain circumstances. With a blanket approval, the release engineering - team is granting an individual the permission to do commits without - specific approval in a well defined and controlled area of the tree. They - are typically granted to those who are working on tier-2 and tier-3 - platforms or on features that are not fully integrated into the tree. - Blanket approvals are completely at the discretion of the release engineering - team and may be revoked or suspended as needed.</p> - -<h1>Policy</h1> - -<h2>Build fixes</h2> -<p>These are defined as changes that fix source files, - makefiles, or other build components so that the system can be compiled. - This does not include bug fixes to tools or compilers except in rare - circumstances. Build fixes must be committed to the parent branch - first, if applicable, and be tested in all default build configurations. - For kernel sources, this means testing on both GENERIC and LINT kernels. - For userland sources, this means completing and installing the build of - the 'world' target. For both userland and kernel sources, compiling on - both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms is mandatory for machine-independent - code. There is no minimum wait period for these fixes once testing is - complete.</p> - -<h2>Bug fixes</h2> -<p>These are defined as changes that fix incorrect behavior in - an existing piece of code or subsystem in the src/ tree. All bugs must - have a PR number, a review by a senior member of the project, and be - vetted through the parent branch for at least 3 full days. We are often - pressured to skirt the rules and put high-priority fixes in early, but we - must resist that and rely on other tools like Perforce and diff/patch to - get early testing before committing to the tree.</p> - -<h2>Documentation fixes</h2> -<p>These are defined as changes to existing documentation in manual pages, - release notes, and doc articles and books. This does <b>not</b> generally - include comments in source files. Documentation fixes are classified into - trivial and content fixes. - Trivial fixes are defined as changes which do not need a technical review - such as fixing a typo, wording, markup error, and so on. - Content fixes are defined as ones which need a technical review, - such as changes to the contents of documentation and build infrastructure.</p> - - <h3>Documentation fixes for the src/ tree</h3> - <p>All changes must be committed to the parent branch first, - vetted through that branch for 2 days. - Content fixes must be sent with a PR number when the changes - are large or involve one of the TODO items (these are periodically - posted to the freebsd-doc@ mailing list during the release cycle, - and should also be filed as PRs). When the changes are self-explaining, send - them to re@ as an MFC request. - Changes that are widespread or cover significant technical information - should be reviewed without exception.</p> - - <h3>Documentation fixes for the doc/ tree</h3> - <p>Similar policy is applied to the doc/ tree, - but since doc/ is not branched and is not frozen, trivial fixes - are allowed to be committed without explicit approval before BETA4. - Content fixes must be committed with a PR number when the changes - are large or involve one of the TODO items (these are periodically - posted to the freebsd-doc@ mailing list during the release cycle, - and should also be filed as PRs). When the changes are self-explaining, you can - commit them into the doc/ tree. When you are not sure if - committing your patch without approval is reasonable or not, - please ask doceng@. Documentation Engineering Team - reserves the right to reject and back out your change. - After BETA4, doc/ slush begins and non-critical - changes to English documents are discouraged.</p> - - <h3>Translations</h3> - <p>The above two policies also apply to translations, - but all changes are considered as trivial changes during - the period before the doc/ slush is over.</p> - -<h2>Feature additions and modifications</h2> -<p>These are defined as changes that add new features to the system or - significantly change or improve existing features and behaviors, but are - not strictly bug fixes. These will only be considered for inclusion if - prior notice is given to the re@ and arch@ mail aliases and the work is - publically available in either patch form or in the FreeBSD Perforce - repository. We reserve the right to reject feature requests based on risk - to stability and risk to the published release schedule. Those that are - allowed need at least 7 days in the parent branch and a thorough review by - at least two parties. Mitigation of risk is highly important here, so - developers are highly encouraged to make their work be modular and able to - be removed or turned off to restore previous behavior. Feature additions - will not be allowed after BETA4. </p> - -<h2>Performance improvements</h2> -<p>These are defined as changes that are designed to optimize performance in - a measurable way. Any proposal here must be accompanied by documented - performance and regression testing on all affected arches. On arches with - a clear runtime distinction between UP and SMP, the testing must include - both. Thorough review by two or more senior people is also a firm - requirement. Performance improvements will not be allowed after BETA3.</p> - - -</body> -</html> diff --git a/en_US.ISO8859-1/htdocs/releases/5.3R/readme.html b/en_US.ISO8859-1/htdocs/releases/5.3R/readme.html deleted file mode 100644 index de7410dfdb..0000000000 --- a/en_US.ISO8859-1/htdocs/releases/5.3R/readme.html +++ /dev/null @@ -1,424 +0,0 @@ -<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> -<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" - "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> -<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> -<head> -<meta name="generator" content="HTML Tidy, see www.w3.org" /> -<title>FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE README</title> -<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Modular DocBook HTML Stylesheet Version 1.7" /> -<link rel="STYLESHEET" type="text/css" href="docbook.css" /> -</head> -<body class="ARTICLE" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000" link="#0000FF" vlink="#840084" -alink="#0000FF"> -<div class="ARTICLE"> -<div class="TITLEPAGE"> -<h1 class="TITLE"><a id="AEN2" name="AEN2">FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE README</a></h1> - -<h3 class="CORPAUTHOR">The FreeBSD Project</h3> - -<p class="COPYRIGHT">Copyright © 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 The FreeBSD -Documentation Project</p> - -<p class="PUBDATE">$FreeBSD: src/release/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/readme/article.sgml,v -1.31.2.2 2004/09/17 16:28:58 bmah Exp $<br /> -</p> - -<div class="LEGALNOTICE"><a id="TRADEMARKS" name="TRADEMARKS"></a> -<p>FreeBSD is a registered trademark of Wind River Systems, Inc.

For this purpose, the frontend has been made non-optional. All debugger -requests are forwarded or handed over to the current backend, if applicable. Selection of -the current backend is done by the <var class="VARNAME">debug.kdb.current</var> sysctl. A -list of configured backends can be obtained with the <var -class="VARNAME">debug.kdb.available</var> sysctl.

Several sysctls are available to enable the watchdog running out of the -processor's idle thread; a callout is launched to reset a timer in the watchdog. If the -callout fails to reset the timer for ten seconds, the timeout process will take place. -The <var class="VARNAME">debug.watchdog_cpu</var> sysctl selects which CPU will run the -watchdog.</p> - -<p>A sysctl <var class="VARNAME">debug.leak_schedlock</var> has been added.
