&os; &release.current; Release Notes The &os; Project $FreeBSD$ 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 The &os; Documentation Project &tm-attrib.freebsd; &tm-attrib.ibm; &tm-attrib.ieee; &tm-attrib.intel; &tm-attrib.sparc; &tm-attrib.general; The release notes for &os; &release.current; contain a summary of the changes made to the &os; base system on the &release.branch; development line. This document lists applicable security advisories that were issued since the last release, as well as significant changes to the &os; kernel and userland. Some brief remarks on upgrading are also presented. Introduction This document contains the release notes for &os; &release.current;. It describes recently added, changed, or deleted features of &os;. It also provides some notes on upgrading from previous versions of &os;. The &release.type; distribution to which these release notes apply represents the latest point along the &release.branch; development branch since &release.branch; was created. Information regarding pre-built, binary &release.type; distributions along this branch can be found at &release.url;. The &release.type; distribution to which these release notes apply represents a point along the &release.branch; development branch between &release.prev; and the future &release.next;. Information regarding pre-built, binary &release.type; distributions along this branch can be found at &release.url;. This distribution of &os; &release.current; is a &release.type; distribution. It can be found at &release.url; or any of its mirrors. More information on obtaining this (or other) &release.type; distributions of &os; can be found in the Obtaining &os; appendix to the &os; Handbook. All users are encouraged to consult the release errata before installing &os;. The errata document is updated with late-breaking information discovered late in the release cycle or after the release. Typically, it contains information on known bugs, security advisories, and corrections to documentation. An up-to-date copy of the errata for &os; &release.current; can be found on the &os; Web site. What's New This section describes the most user-visible new or changed features in &os; since &release.prev;. Typical release note items document recent security advisories issued after &release.prev;, new drivers or hardware support, new commands or options, major bug fixes, or contributed software upgrades. They may also list changes to major ports/packages or release engineering practices. Clearly the release notes cannot list every single change made to &os; between releases; this document focuses primarily on security advisories, user-visible changes, and major architectural improvements. Security Advisories   Kernel Changes The vfs.zfs.zio.use_uma &man.sysctl.8; has been re-enabled. On multi-CPU machines with enough RAM, this can easily double &man.zfs.8; performance or reduce CPU usage in half. It was originally disabled due to - memory and KVA exhastion problem reports, + memory and KVA exhaustion problem reports, which should be resolved due to several change in the VM subsystem. The &man.geom.4; RAID driver has been updated to support unmapped I/O. A new &man.sysctl.8;, kern.panic_reboot_wait_time, has been added, which allows controlling how long the system will wait after &man.panic.9; before rebooting. The &man.mpr.4; device has been added, providing support for LSI Fusion-MPT 3 12Gb SCSI/SATA controllers. The &man.mrsas.4; driver has been added, providing support for LSI MegaRAID SAS controllers. The &man.mfi.4; driver will attach to the controller, by default. To enable &man.mrsas.4; add hw.mfi.mrsas_enable=1 to /boot/loader.conf, which turns off &man.mfi.4; device probing. At this time, the &man.mfiutil.8; utility and the &os; version of MegaCLI and StorCli do not work with &man.mrsas.4;. A kernel bug that inhibited proper functionality of the dev.cpu.0.freq &man.sysctl.8; on &intel; processors with Turbo Boost ™ enabled has been fixed. Virtualization support   ARM support   Boot Loader Changes   Hardware Support   Multimedia Support   Network Interface Support   Network Protocols   Disks and Storage   File Systems   Userland Changes A new flag is added to &man.camcontrol.8;, -b, which outputs the existing buses and their parents. The &man.ps.1; utility has been updated to include the -J flag, used to filter output by matching &man.jail.8; IDs and names. Additionally, argument 0 can be used to -J to only list processes running on the host system. The &man.top.1; utility has been updated to filter by &man.jail.8; ID or name, in followup to the &man.ps.1; change in r265229. <filename>/etc/rc.d</filename> Scripts   Contributed Software OpenSSH has been updated to version 6.6p1. Ports/Packages Collection Infrastructure   Release Engineering and Integration   Documentation   Upgrading from Previous Releases of &os; Binary upgrades between RELEASE versions (and snapshots of the various security branches) are supported using the &man.freebsd-update.8; utility. The binary upgrade procedure will update unmodified userland utilities, as well as unmodified GENERIC or SMP kernels distributed as a part of an official &os; release. The &man.freebsd-update.8; utility requires that the host being upgraded have Internet connectivity. Source-based upgrades (those based on recompiling the &os; base system from source code) from previous versions are supported, according to the instructions in /usr/src/UPDATING. Upgrading &os; should only be attempted after backing up all data and configuration files.
