This file describes new user-visible features, changes and updates relevant to users of binary FreeBSD releases. Each entry should describe the change in no more than several sentences and should reference manual pages where an interested user can find more information. Entries should wrap after 80 columns. Each entry should begin with one or more commit IDs on one line, specified as a comma separated list and/or range, followed by a colon and a newline. Entries should be separated by a newline. Changes to this file should not be MFCed. +r363233: + Merge sendmail 8.16.1: See contrib/sendmail/RELEASE_NOTES for details. + r363180: The safexcel(4) crypto offload driver has been added. r363084: nc(1) now implements SCTP mode, enabled by specifying the --sctp option. r362158, r362163: struct export_args has changed so that the "user" specified for the -maproot and -mapall exports(5) options may be in more than 16 groups. r361884: sed(1) has learned about hex escapes (e.g. \x27) and will now do the right thing with them, removing the need for printf magic or obnoxious escaping in many scenarios. r361238, r361798, r361799: ZFS will now unconditionally reject read(2) of a directory with EISDIR. Additionally, read(2) of a directory is now rejected with EISDIR by default and may be re-enabled for non-ZFS filesystems that allow it with the sysctl(8) MIB 'security.bsd.allow_read_dir'. Aliases for grep to default to '-d skip' may be desired if commonly non-recursively grepping a list that includes directories and the possibility of EISDIR errors in stderr is not tolerable. Example aliases, commented out, have been installed in /root/.cshrc and /root/.shrc. r361066: Add exec.prepare and exec.release hooks for jail(8) and jail.conf(5). exec.prepare runs before mounts, so can be used to populate new jails. exec.release runs after unmounts, so can be used to remove ephemeral jails. r360920,r360923,r360924,r360927,r360928,r360931,r360933,r360936: Remove support for ARC4, Blowfish, Cast, DES, Triple DES, MD5, MD5-KPDK, MD5-HMAC, SHA1-KPDK, and Skipjack algorithms from the kernel open cryptographic framework (OCF). r360562: Remove support for ARC4, Blowfish, Cast, DES, Triple DES, MD5-HMAC, and Skipjack algorithms from /dev/crypto. r360557: Remove support for DES, Triple DES, Blowfish, Cast, and Camellia ciphers from IPsec(4). Remove support for MD5-HMAC, Keyed MD5, Keyed SHA1, and RIPEMD160-HMAC from IPsec(4). r359945: Remove support for Triple DES, Blowfish, and MD5 HMAC from geli(4). r359786-r359787: Remove support for DES, Triple DES, and RC4 from in-kernel GSS authentication. r357627: remove elf2aout. r357560-r357565: init(8), service(8), and cron(8) will now adopt user/class environment variables (excluding PATH, by default, which will be overwritten) by default. Notably, environment variables for all cron jobs and rc services can now be set via login.conf(5). r357455: sparc64 has been removed from FreeBSD. r355677: Adds support for NFSv4.2 (RFC-7862) and Extended Attributes (RFC-8276) to the NFS client and server. NFSv4.2 is comprised of several optional features that can be supported in addition to NFSv4.1. This patch adds the following optional features: - posix_fadvise(POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED/POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED) - posix_fallocate() - intra server file range copying via the copy_file_range(2) syscall --> Avoiding data tranfer over the wire to/from the NFS client. - lseek(SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE) - Extended attribute syscalls for "user" namespace attributes as defined by RFC-8276. For the client, NFSv4.2 is only used if the mount command line option minorversion=2 is specified. For the server, two new sysctls called vfs.nfsd.server_min_minorversion4 and vfs.nfsd.server_max_minorversion4 have been added that allow sysadmins to limit the minor versions of NFSv4 supported by the nfsd server. Setting vfs.nfsd.server_max_minorversion4 to 0 or 1 will disable NFSv4.2 on the server. r356263: armv5 support has been removed from FreeBSD. r354517: iwm(4) now supports most Intel 9260, 9460 and 9560 Wi-Fi devices. r354269: sqlite3 is updated to sqlite3-3.30.1. r352668: cron(8) now supports the -n (suppress mail on succesful run) and -q (suppress logging of command execution) options in the crontab format. See the crontab(5) manpage for details. r352304: ntpd is no longer by default locked in memory. rlimit memlock 32 or rlimit memlock 0 can be used to restore this behaviour. r351770,r352920,r352922,r352923: dd(1) now supports conv=fsync, conv=fdatasync, oflag=fsync, oflag=sync, and iflag=fullblock flags, compatible with illumos and GNU. r351522: Add kernel-side support for in-kernel Transport Layer Security (KTLS). KTLS permits using sendfile(2) over sockets using TLS. r351397: WPA is updated from 2.8 to 2.9. r351361: Add probes for lockmgr(9) to the lockstat DTrace provider, add corresponding lockstat(1) events, and document the new probes in dtrace_lockstat.4. r351356: Intel RST is a new 'feature' that remaps NVMe devices from their normal location to part of the AHCI bar space. This will eliminate the need to set the BIOS SATA setting from RST to AHCI causing the nvme drive to be erased before FreeBSD will see the nvme drive. FreeBSD will now be able to see the nvme drive now in the default config. r351201, r351372: Add a vop_stdioctl() call, so that file systems that do not support holes will have a trivial implementation of lseek(SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE). The algorithm appears to be compatible with the POSIX draft and the implementation in Linux for the case of a file system that does not support holes. Prior to this patch, lseek(2) would reply -1 with errno set to ENOTTY for SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE on files in file systems that do not support holes. r351372 maps ENOTTY to EINVAL for lseek(SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE) for any other cases, such as a ENOTTY return from vn_bmap_seekhole(). r350665: The fuse driver has been renamed to fusefs(5) and been substantially rewritten. The new driver includes many bug fixes and performance enhancements, as well as the following user-visible features: * Optional kernel-side permissions checks (-o default_permissions) * mknod(2), socket(2), and pipe(2) support * server side locking with fcntl(2) * FUSE operations are now interruptible when mounted with -o intr * server side handling of UTIME_NOW during utimensat(2) * mount options may be updated with "mount -u" * fusefs file system may now be exported over NFS * RLIMIT_FSIZE support * support for fuse file systems using protocols as old as 7.4 FUSE file system developers should also take note of the following new features: * The protocol level has been raised from 7.8 to 7.23 * kqueue support on /dev/fuse * server-initiated cache invalidation via FUSE_NOTIFY_REPLY r350471: gnop(8) can now configure a delay to be applied to read and write request delays. See the -d, -q and -x parameters. r350315, r350316: Adds a Linux compatible copy_file_range(2) syscall. r350307: libcap_random(3) has been removed. Applications can use native APIs to get random data in capability mode. r349529,r349530: Add support for using unmapped mbufs with sendfile(2). r349352: nand(4) and related components have been removed. r349349: The UEFI loader now supports HTTP boot. r349335: bhyve(8) now implements a High Definition Audio (HDA) driver, allowing guests to play to and record audio data from the host. r349286: swapon(8) can now erase a swap device immediately before enabling it, similar to newfs(8)'s -E option. This behaviour can be specified by adding -E to swapon(8)'s command-line parameters, or by adding the "trimonce" option to a swap device's /etc/fstab entry. r347908-r347923: The following network drivers have been removed: bm(4), cs(4), de(4), ed(4), ep(4), ex(4), fe(4), pcn(4), sf(4), sn(4), tl(4), tx(4), txp(4), vx(4), wb(4), xe(4). r347532: Wired page accounting has been split into kernel wirings and user wirings (e.g., by mlock(2)). Kernel wirings no long count towards the global limit, which is renamed to vm.max_user_wired. bhyve -S allocates user-wired memory and is now subject to that limit. $FreeBSD$
