Changes made between OpenBSD 5.1 and 5.2

• Accommodate newer i386/amd64 CPUs with physical address size greater than 36 bit. Fixes major performance hit seen on newer servers where an incorrectly programmed memory region length affects PCI device mappings.
• Make dhclient(8) interface_status() assume that a link is up when IFM_AVALID is not set. Allows drivers to get dhcp leases even when they cannot tell what the link state is.
• Fix for VU#624931 CVE-2012-2978: nsd(8) denial of service vulnerability from non-standard DNS packet from any host on the internet.
• Make the smtpd(8) scheduler less verbose by default.
• Further simplify cwm(1) Xinerama init, and re-init on XRR events.
• On gio, correctly recognise boards with a 8-bit only ID register, which are not frame buffers.
• The 8254 timer does not interrupt on Indy; no longer try it. R4000 and R4400 based Indy may experience the lost clock interrupt processor errata again, until better fix is found.
• Drop .sp and .br right after .SH and .SS.; and drop empty .IP so they do not cause additional vertical spacing with mandoc(1).
• Let a trailing .Ns macro take effect, even on an input line containing a partial implicit macro. Fixes some mandoc(1) horizontal spacing.
• Print messages about ifconfig(8) ieee80211 nodes purged from the node cache if hostap/ibss modes are compiled in and the interface is in debug mode.
• Fix handling of mandoc(1) paragraph macros inside lists: when they are trailing the last item, move them outside the list; when they are trailing any other none-compact item, drop them.
• mandoc(1) will now never use "\*(Ba" and just use "|". Stops breaking of enclosing font changes.
• Put p_prof_ticks and p_prof_addr back in a "copy-on-fork" area, to correct process accounting.
• Add recognition of the Huawei Mobile E303 to umsm(4).
• Use ipsec(4) flowinfo on pipex to select the ipsec(4) tunnel for sending L2TP packets.
• In flush-left mode mandoc(1), when an output line is broken at the position of a literal tab, the tab now indents the following line.
• Added IP_IPSECFLOWINFO option to sendmsg(2) and recvmsg(2), so npppd(4) can use this to select the ipsec(4) tunnel for L2TP packets. Fixes Windows (always binding to 1701) and Android clients (negotiating wildcard flows).
• Fixed two possible node leaks in ieee80211_input().
• Make sure we have a swap partition before trying to read or write hibernate info to it.
• mandoc(1) -Tman .sp fixes: keep height argument on the same line (it got printed to the output); for .El .sp, avoid the .sp -1v .PP .sp output sequence.
• mandoc(1) -mdoc parser improvements related to vertical spacing: remove .br before paragraph type blocks; treat .Lp as a paragraph like .Pp (so remove .Pp, .Lp, .br before it); do not treat .sp as a paragraph (don't remove anything before it); after .Sh, .Ss, .Pp, and .Lp, remove .Pp, .Lp, .sp, .br, and blank lines; after .sp and .br, remove .br.
• Unify cwm(1) max routines, to match client placement and some menu ones when calculating screen dimensions.
• Don't panic in hibernate resume if no swap partition exists on the root disk.
• Add cu(1) command ~D to drop the DTR line for a second (similar to using ~# for a BREAK). This makes some microcontroller boards reset.
• Fixed mandoc(1) vertical spacing for blank lines after .PP, and for .sp after .PP; adjust -Tman SYNOPSIS .Nm indentation using .HP; do not pass font escapes and such through print_word(), to correctly count characters.
• In mandoc(1) -Tman .Bl -compact, skip blank line only before first item of first list in a section, not before every item of the first list.
• Label node allocation failures as such in netstat(1) -W output.
• Changed ipsec.conf(5) configuration format fed to the isakmpd FIFO to be able to specify extended options (eg SA Lifetime).
• Added sysctl.conf(5) file for beagleboard architecture (required by the cross compiler).
• Refined bgpd(8) knexthop calculations. Fixes massive memory consumption crashes when used with ospfd(8).
• Support additional MODP DH groups in the isakmpd.policy(5) Phase 1 and Phase 2, to match ipsecctl(8).
• Stopped npppd(4) using wrong Attribute Value Pairs as a "calling number".
• tcpdump(8) now recognises additional Internet Key Exchange DH groups.
• mandoc(1) changes: in -man -Tascii, support .sp with negative argument; in -mdoc -Tman, improve the framework to control vertical spacing. Use both to support .Bl -compact.
• Add a notify queue to tmux(1) and a way to turn them on and off, to prevent notify while running some commands.
• Import swrastg, the Gallium3D software rasterizer. Uses the softpipe driver by default, can also use the llvmpipe driver that use LLVM for code generation if available. Not yet linked to the build.
• Avoid using the same wscons(4) wchan name twice.
• Disable acpivideo(4) on ASUS laptops, as some models panic whenever an event is received.
• Fix wireless scanning on slow systems with high RX rate and interface in debug mode. Allows association points to recover from ifconfig(8) "ral0 debug down up" in noisy RF environments. Also fixed some association failures.
• Allow route(8) destination/prefixlen syntax for ipv6 routes.
• After connect() returns EINPROGRESS the connection can still fail, relayd(8) will now check with getsockopt if the socket is still open.
• Use S_ISFIFO and S_ISSOCK instead of lseek() to determine whether a fd is a socket, pipe or named pipe.
• Fix .Nm validation crash in mandoc(1).
• Be more careful when accessing a possibly cached route, since it may already be gone. Fixes panic seen when unplugging a USB interface in use.
• Added -B option to ktrace(1) to reduce ld.so(1) chatter.
• Better handling of long comments in ssh_config(5).
• Fix installer script issue where ksh would not properly separate arguments correctly in "$@" if IFS is an empty string.
• Enabled hibernate on i386. Currently only working on pciide(4) and wd(4) disks.
• Improved i386 gdb to display stack traces of kernel core dumps correctly.
• Fix crash in mandoc(1) on .Fn with one argument and .Bl without a width. Now can build all 3776 base manuals.
• Added support in smtpd(8) for maildir tagging/folders.
• Added support for NetMos NM9820 cardbus serial cards.

• Make smtpd(8) not respect RFC5322 and refuse strange characters in the local part of an email address.
• Implemented res_mkquery(3) in the libc async resolver.
• When cp(1) copies a file using sparse mode, truncate the file based on current seek offset instead of the reported original length.
• USB HID parser now supports multiple report IDs. Added hid_get_report_id(3) to get an id of a descriptor.
• New event-driven tftp-proxy(8) replaces the old one run out of inetd(8).
• Disabled SSLv2 in the OpenSSL code base.
• Better fdisk(8) bounds checks and less unuseful help texts.
• In bgpd(8), limit the setsockopt(2) while loops to prevent them from running away if the call fails when a peer bounces at the wrong time.
• Fix libtool(1) handling of ldconfig library directory searches.
• Make tmux(1) command exec functions return an enum rather than -1/0/1 values and add new value to mean "leave client running but don't attach". Fixes problems with using some commands in a command sequence.
• Make sure processes don't get scheduled on CPUs which have been taken out of the scheduler.
• Fix packet length issue in pf(4) address translation for icmp error packets.
• Reduce the number of unnecessary IPIs sent on amd64 smp machines by calling need_resched() only if the priority is lower than the current running process.

• mandoc(1) fixes: .Lk for -Tascii (implemented it for -Tman); fixed vertical spacing for -Tman SYNOPSIS .Fn .Fo .Ft .In .Nm .Va .Vt.
• To more reliably detect altered system files, security(8) switched from MD5 to SHA-256, using mtree(8).
• Added mtree(8) support for the "sha256digest" keyword to create/compare SHA-256 digests of files.
• Pass @ (array) information along to auto-make simpler accessors in libtool(1); first use of permuted options.
• Incoming smtpd(8) messages are now always stored in /incoming, whatever the queue_backend is; check return value of generated paths before calling rmtree().
• Disallow manual security associations that use AES-CTR, AES-GCM, or AES-GMAC (all unsafe with static keys) in ipsec.conf(5). Also, forbidden by RFCs 3686, 4106, and 4543.

• Check for valid partition when fdisk(8) "select"ing a partition.
• Replaced atoi(3) with strtonum(3) in fdisk(8) code, and made related error messages consistent.
• Allow nc(1) UDP server to receive datagrams from multiple socket pairs with -k flag.
• Restored pf(4) DIOCKILLSTATE semantics. Should fix "authpf(8) doesn't remove NAT states" issue.

• Support for gaming-style USB keyboards (that use a variable for each separate key in the HID report).
• cwm(1) querying for Xinerama now done per display, not per screen.
• pkg_add(1) sets -i on automatically for ttys; uses -i/-I to force interactive/non interactive mode.
• ssh(1) setting of tty_flag moved to after config parsing, so RequestTTY options are correctly picked up (bz#1995).

• dhclient(8) will now reject the lease if no length field is present.
• Check dhclient(8) "required length" field for an option is present before trying to use it.
• Delete (all) trailing NUL's when parsing dhclient(8) NVT ASCII options. Fixes appending info to such options via dhclient.conf(5); conforms to RFC 2132.
• Improved iked(8) ikev2_msg_retransmit_timeout.
• Close iked(8) SA when IKE_SA_INIT or IKE_AUTH exchanges fail; don't cache response to IKE_SA_INIT.

• Change arc4random(3) arc4random_uniform() calculations to simplify code and make slightly faster.
• Replace mips64 R5000 and R10000 family assembly cache routines with C equivalents (rm cache_r*.d in kernel compile directories after updating).

• ssh(1) strlcpy(3) truncation check corrected.
• Cancel timeouts in dhclient(8) state_reboot() to stop sending (corrupted) discover packets after binding.
• Fixed the smtpd(8) runner spinning on message loop.

• Initialise ssh(1) accept() backoff timer to avoid EINVAL from select(2) when rekeying.
• In sshd_config(5), extend Match to allow AcceptEnv and {Allow,Deny}{Users,Groups}.
• Moved libtool(1) to base.
• Changes to compat_linux(8): pool_get() flags changed from WAITOK to NOWAIT to avoid a potential lost-wakeup; linux_futex.c now sleeps on the actual data address (not on the stack address of the pointer to the data); implemented linux_sys_tgkill and added extra argument validation.

• Do not crash when the current tmux(1) session has no window.
• Fixed mg(1) spin that occurred when splitting window after directory opened via command line and by other windows.
• Add -a flag for tmux(1) detach-client, will kill-session for all but the specified session.
• Checking that the opened file is the expected one fixes a potential symlink race when using the -P flag in rm(1).
• In the smtpd(8) code a "struct scheduler_info" abstraction is introduced and used as a value carrier instead of "struct envelope".
• IP30.MP kernels will store the CURCPU pointer in a slower way but which works in memory areas above 2 GB (physical); the mips64 port no longer restricts continuous-page allocations to memory in the low 4 GB.
• On the octeon port the TLB size is now dynamically calculated.
• In tcpbench(1) an integer division by zero is fixed.
• The ldapd(8) now proactively protects itself against, and thus handles, filedescriptor exhaustion.
• Regression test for the DF_1_NOOPEN flag enters the tree.
• The mg(1) editor will gracefully open filenames longer than LOGIN_NAME_MAX which are prefixed with a tilde (and don't refer to an account).
• ld.so(1) henceforth honours the DF_1_NOOPEN flag (dlopen(3) not allowed, to be set via "-Wl,-znodlopen" linker flags).
• snmpd(8) learns the D-DISKIO-MIB.
• The new mg(1) option "backup-to-home-directory" will save backup copies in "~/.mg.d" instead of CWD; the new "leave-tmpdir-backups" option can modify this behaviour further.
• Output of "pkg_info(1) -S" changes since signatures now separate pkgnames with "@", libraries with nothing.
• nginx(8) is updated to version 1.2.1.
• In ld.so(1), some logical reorganization and cleanup occurs.

• Signal dispatching has (at least temporarily) been changed to give sigwait(3) priority over ptrace(2).
• ypldap(8) won't stumble over nonexistent users when creating groups, but simply leave that one out and continue with the next user entry.

• Support for AMD Hudson-2 is added to piixpm(4).
• An example in queue(3) manpages is fixed to compile without warnings.
• The xtsscale Xenocara program uses __progname from crt0.o instead of argv[0] for messages.

• Don't include ou=People in the ypldap.conf(5) basedn, as ypldap(8) has netid support, and groups are usually stored outside of People.
• Added the new standalone tftpd(8) to base, a persistent event driven tftp daemon.
• Sync gcc3 and gcc4 knowledge of the kernel printf capabilities with reality.
• Use UE_GET_ADDR to get endpoint address (remove direction bit) in uaudio(4). Fixes devices using sych endpoints.

• Support the ASIX AX88772B axe(4) USB ethernet controller.
• Allow ssh-keygen(1) conversion of RSA1 keys to public PEM and PKCS8.

• Add checks to rthreads when trying to unlock an uninitialized mutex to make sure it returns EPERM.
• The mandoc(1) program now replaces bogus characters with ? instead of just dropping them.
• In man(7), support the .OP macro (for compatibility only).
• On the mips64 and sh platforms the per-thread errno should be fixed.
• The ix(4) interrupt routine uses a shorter path to reenable interrupts and gains other tweaks which result in a doubled performance on 82599.
• In the gus(4/i386) driver MIDI registers will only be used if they are actually available. This fixes an issue which caused the driver to be disabled on 1999-08-22, but the happy-end can finally be seen in i386 GENERIC.
• For the elroy(4/hppa) driver an integer truncation error is fixed which caused systems to freeze hard.
• The process tracing facilities will work again on processors without floating-point registers/state. (Had been broken by the large extension of the 20th.)
• In tmux(1) the show-options and window-show-options commands can now be used to show just a single specified option.
• Minor tweaks and cleanups in the amd64 code of the kernel have been observed.
• pthread_yield(3) is renamed to sched_yield(3).

• In chroot(2) mode nginx(8) first chdir(2)s to the PREFIX directory before it starts to create it's temporary directories.
• The pthread_suspend_np(3) and pthread_resume_np(3) function are no longer functional and become ENOTSUP stubs.
• A lot of work is being done for making process tracing work with rthreads.
• In Xenocara, update xf86-video-geode 2.11.13 and xf86-video-dummy to 0.3.5.
• kdump(1) fixes an integer flip which could have happened for a kernel trace record with ktr_len of SIZE_MAX and would have caused a zero byte data allocation. It also learns more system calls and refactors output routines as well as the output produced by the latter.
• A lot of work is being done on regression tests for threads.
• Bugfix in tcpdump(8) to correctly check BGP prefix lengths in withdrawn routes.
• Fix return value documentation errors in usbhid(3).
• Allow for more vars in ksh(1) hash table, improve hash function, increase hash table size sooner.

• Add DIAGNOSTICS to bsd.port.mk(5), for easy grepping through logs, and no longer label "warning messages" as "errors".
• pkill(1) will now exit usage() with STATUS_BADUSAGE rather than STATUS_ERROR, in agreement with the man page.
• Set __isthreaded in pthread_create(3), i.e. even if a forked child creates a new thread. Fixes an rthread bug to properly represents whether a process is multi-threaded or not.
• Do an explicit "sync" instruction before returning from cache routines on mips64 (nop on R5k/RM52xx, but required on RM7k).
• Add kevent(2) support for msdosfs to make applications monitoring fs mounts happy.
• Enable rthreads by default (threads now in kernel not userspace), and add additional pthreads regression tests.
• Hold struct filedesc's fd_lock in more places. Fixes hangs in rthreaded processes calling fork(2).
• No longer attempt to enable MSI on 82571/82572 em(4) Gigabit ethernet controllers (to workaround "Byte Enables 2 and 3 Are Not Set" hardware bug).
• pkg_create(1) now warns when @option no-default-conflict has been set without explicit @conflict.
