Subject: NetBSD 0.9 available for anon-ftp...

From: [email-masked] (Chris G. Demetriou)
Date: 23 Aug 93 23:26:53

I said it'd be out on 8/23, and it's still 8/23, here...  8-)

NetBSD 0.9 is now available for public consumption.

It is possible to upgrade from 0.8 to 0.9, and tools are provided
for this purpose.  If you wish to switch to NetBSD from 386bsd, you
must install from scratch...

Some FTP sites where it is, or will soon be available:

	agate.berkeley.edu:/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-0.9

	ftp.iastate.edu:/pub/netbsd/NetBSD-0.9
		(also via AFS by the path:
		 /afs/iastate.edu/public/ftp/pub/netbsd/NetBSD-0.9 )

	ftp.eecs.umich.edu:/software/BSD/NetBSD/NetBSD-0.9

	grasp.insa-lyon.fr:/pub/mirrors/NetBSD/NetBSD-0.9

Get the INSTALL_NOTES and the LAST_MINUTE file; both are important.

Also, the original distribution which mirrors picked up had
a corrupted gsrc09 distribution.  This was fixed, and you can
tell if your favorite ftp site's version is the fixed one
by whether or not it has a file named FIXED in the
.../NetBSD-0.9/source/gsrc09 directory.

an abbreviated list of changes from 0.8 to 0.9 is included below.

enjoy!

	fixed the amazingly shitty ethernet performance with cheap Western
		Digital cards. (mycroft)
	the /usr/src/sys/i386/boot/rmaouthdr script was not executable,
		which caused 0.8 to have a broken bootwd (deraadt)
	segregated GNU software in the standard dist. from the rest.
		it's now in /usr/src/gnu/* (cgd)
	various changes from Ralf Freidl to fix brokenness in pcfs (cgd)

	improve kernel select mechanism further, by making setup
		done by a function.  put protos into /sys/sys/select.h
		and clean up all of the messes it makes (cgd)
	file now prints the targets of symbolic links, thanks
		to John Brezak ([email-masked]) for the patch.  (cgd)
	ed: 8-bit clean; no line-length limit; regex support for NULs (alm)
	sed: fixed NULL indirection (alm)
	fix "cpu" declarations in kernel config files so that they
		work as originally intended.  this means that only
		cpus for which there is a cpu declaration (see kernel
		config files for examples) are supported by a kernel
		compiled with the config.  also, if you want the math
		emulator in your kernel, you now need the "MATH_EMULATE"
		option in the kernel config file.  (cgd)
	disklabel stuff in the kernel has been split up into arch
		indep & arch dep components. no more dos stuff in
		ufs_disksubr.c! 	(deraadt)

		support, including: reception of ISO multicasts in with
		we ethernet driver, fixed CLNP Echo reponder, and
		netstat, ifconfig, and libc fixes (cgd)
	use the Athena "newsyslog" utility to rotate logs, rather than the
		old, cumbersome method in /etc/{daily,weekly,monthly} (cgd)
	replaced broken /usr/include/bitstring.h w/new version from
		Mike Murphy <[email-masked]> (cgd)
	added /usr/src/regress, for regression tests (cgd)
	add Yuval Yarom's changes (originally for BSD/386) for advisory
		record locking on NFS files.  Note that this DOES NOT
		support network locking, only local advisory locks. (cgd)
	fix /bin/ls; is clobbered first env. var. if given no filename args
		given. patch from Bob Willcox <[email-masked]>. (deraadt)
	mail.local can now use username.lock files as well as flock().
		Use the -l flag in your favorite sendmail.cf file. (deraadt)
	don't remake newvers and relink kernel if nothing has changed (cgd)
	fix SUP to not need any version of crypt. Use "make MAKE_EXPORT=1"
		to build a SUP for export. (brezak)
	add patch00144: fixed compress bug with a small path[] array
		from <[email-masked]>. (deraadt)
	add patch00149: sd/cd drivers printed incorrect blocknumbers when they
		hit errors. From <[email-masked]>. (deraadt)
	/etc/localtime is now created from by "make distribution" (deraadt)
	fixed /usr/bin/more to not play with magic numbers from executables
		directly.  It now uses the N_BADMAG() macro. (deraadt)
	fixed lpr's dealings with magic numbers. It now no longer accesses
		exec.a_magic directly, and it knows about modern "ar"
		files rather than the old ones (deraadt)
	use EXPORTABLE_SYSTEM instead of MAKE_EXPORT to build crypt-free SUP.
		Just like the rest of the system. (brezak)
	tty structures are allocated dynamically. The d_ttys field in cdevs[]
		now has an extra level of indirection. The pty and com
		drivers allocate pty's dynamically, the pccons driver does
		not. Check out the "ttys" field in vmstat -m. (deraadt)
	make sleeps during FIFO open interruptable (cgd)
	various pacthes to kernel files to make things compile
		with GCC-2.3.3 (proven)
	patch to signal .h for ANSI validation (proven)

	sending simple telnet commands fixed.  patch originally
		from Jonathan Stone <[email-masked]> (cgd)
	replace execve with new one, based on work by Wolfgang Solfrank
		<[email-masked]>, but beaten up a good amount be cgd.
		(after several iterations of beating have gone on,
		this code is *really* differnt...) (cgd)
	update kvm library for the new exec, and add a kvm_getenv function,
		to get a process's environment var list.  ps and w

	give ps an 'e' option, to print the environment variables
		of processes (cgd)
	add vt300 to termcap.src (brezak)
	fixed stty so that setting "ispeed" works. (cgd)

		patch #139. (cgd)
	patch from David Greenman and Rod Grimes ([email-masked]
		and [email-masked]) to support 57600 and 115200

	added Microsoft and Logitech busmouse drivers, originally by
		Erik Forsberg. (andrew)
	added fast symlinks.  Add `options FASTLINKS' to your config file or
		frob the variable `ufs_write_fastlinks' to enable creating
		them.  Note potential conflict with Pete Chown's ACLs (which

	first part of merge of amiga code, sys/arch/amiga. Full merge will
		require some changes outside too, as well as some renameing
		in sys/arch/amiga to avoid conflicts with existing modules (mw)
	i386 wd controller driver: major rewrite of timeout code to use
		DELAY(). added code to reset controller if it times
		out. patches sent in by many people. (deraadt)
	make the rlist code go away.  it wasn't useful in the place
		it was intended to be used, and it was incompatible.
		in addition, it caused a few bugs...  replace it with
		rmap code written by Wolfgang Solfrank.  (cgd)
	i386 pccons driver now malloc()'s it's "struct tty" (deraadt)

		kernels at the 1MB mark, bad144 support and various other
		fixes (which enables the code to work with aha174x cards in
		enhanced mode). (andrew)
	upgrade if_is.c to handle multiple cards and bpf (paul)
	make ps with an odd number of "w" flags behave properly. (cgd)
	changed tty queue interface to be like old BSD clists, but with a

	fixed nice(1) to not dump core when invoked with no arguments, and
		to understand negative niceness values. (jtc)
	fixed dbsym to strip gcc2 related trash syms before stuffing them
		into the kernel. Added "-l" flag to strip local syms
		too. (brezak)
	replaced gcc1 with gcc2 as standard compiler, and removed gcc1 
		and the old version of g++ (cgd)
	upgraded libg++ to version 2.3.90 (cgd)
	changed env, head, nohup, wc, and xargs to be IEEE 1003.2 (D11.2)
		compliant. (jtc)
	upgraded groff to version 1.08. (jtc)
	i386 if_ne.c bug fixes from <[email-masked]> (deraadt)
	ddb changes. Add -more- pager for output. Add 'ps' command.
		bring in ddb(4) man page. (brezak)
	added Havard Eidnes fixes to netstat (paul)
	fixed gcc2 for multiple archs and tidied up man pages in cpp (paul)
	updated libg++ to 2.4 (paul)
	make lib/libtelnet/enc_des.c optional for telnet. (brezak)
	copyin/out(), copyin/outstr(), s/fubyte() et al protection fixes,
		including COW support, using code based on that from
		Wolfgang Solfrank and Christoph Robitschko. (andrew)
	user segment descriptors fixed to disallow access to user area (andrew)
	bde's boot >= 1MB fixes (andrew)
	make NOPs in locore do something, by default.  to make them
		faster (and doing so will break some systems),
		use 'options "DUMMY_NOPS"' in kernel config file (cgd)
	multiple beeps now generate a continuous tone.  also, sysbeep() now
		takes a frequency as its first argument. (mycroft)
	added library dependencies to Makefiles where they were missing.
		(mycroft)
	changed dinode.di_un to a dev_t in preparation for making dev_t larger.
		(mycroft)
	moved asm.h from /usr/include/sys to /usr/include/machine. (mycroft)
	added CXX and CXXFLAGS and suffix rules for C++ files in
		/usr/share/mk/*, with attendent Makefile changes. (mycroft)
	fixed search paths for whereis. (mycroft)
	fixed memory trashing bug in compress. (mycroft)
	fixed various bugs in if_hp.c. (mycroft)
	changed implementation of scroll lock to use sleep() and wakeup() so
		it doesn't freeze all sessions. (mycroft)
	fixed bug in cat re: short (usually interrupted) writes. (mycroft)
	made pccons output in small chunks use ttrstrt() so it doesn't hog the
		CPU. (mycroft)
	made splimp() mask both spltty() and splnet(), and removed Bill's kluge
		for SLIP that made spltty() and splnet() include each other.
		(mycroft)
	fixed handling of bad syscall numbers on 386. (mycroft)
	changed `make depend' to work in two passes--one for C files and one
		for C++ files.  for the latter, `-+' is passed to mkdep
		automatically; no need to specify it in the Makefile. (mycroft)
	moved struct definitions outside of function declarations in kernel,
		so GCC doesn't emit tons of warnings. (mycroft and cgd)
	added -T option to dbsym to specify load address of kernel.  this is
		necessary for it to be able to find the blasted string it's
		supposed to insert into when the kernel is not loaded at the
		default address.  Makefile.i386 now uses this. (mycroft)
	added a way to specify the kernel load address in the config file; add
		`at address' (e.g. `at 0xfe100000') to the `config' line.
		(mycroft)
	made GDB deal with stabs type info output by GCC 2. (mycroft)
	fix from Brian Somers <[email-masked]> to make
		"ps -o command" work correctly (cgd)
	made kvm_procread() read the swap area in CLBYTES chunks. (mycroft)
	added ISOFS support for Rockridge filesystems, written by
		Atsushi Murai <[email-masked]>. (cgd)
	scsi bus probing sped up by remembering if there's actually a 
		device at a particular unit number (deraadt)
	hp300 tty devs changed to do dynamic tty allocation (deraadt)
	the ifconfig aui/bnc keywords go away, use -llc0 to select
		bnc/other onboard tranceiver, llc0 to select aui (deraadt)
	cleaned up /etc/magic to grok new-style executables (deraadt)
	removed bogus nop-like instructions put at the start of the i386
		crt0.c by Bill (deraadt)
	i386 wd.c now has timeout debugging code useful for seeing how slow
		your controller's DIAG command really is. Enable
		WDCNDELAY_DEBUG in wd.c if interested... (deraadt)
	i386 if_ed.c call bpfattach() at the same place as other enet
		drivers (deraadt)
	bpf man page error found by hpeyerl, ok'd by mccanne (deraadt)
	added -g option to dbsym to include line number and function symbols
		for DDB; note that this generates REALLY LARGE symbol tables;
		you'll need to load the kernel at >=1MB to use it. (mycroft)
	replaced vfs__bio.c with better one derived from one from CMU.
		it works better, does the right thing with buffer_map,
		and, in general, is cleaner than the old one. (cgd)
	added man pages for all external mount types. (cgd)
	fix from J.T. Conklin to make nohup print the correct
		message re: the logging file on the user's console.  (cgd)
	mount_pcfs moved to mount_msdos; the latter is more appropriate (cgd)
	sendmail upgraded to version 8.3
	added statistics counters to if_is.c,ipackets etc (paul)
	ultrastore 14f driver should now work w/34f as well. (cgd)
	got rid of broken toupper() and tolower() macros (cgd)
	i386 wd.c change from <ws.tools.de> to fix single drive systems (deraadt)
	i386 fd.c reliability fix from <[email-masked]> (deraadt)
