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.IntroductionThis 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.This document describes the most user-visible new or changed
features in &os; since &release.prev;. In general, changes
described here are unique to the &release.branch; branch unless
specifically marked as &merged; features.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.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 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.Security and ErrataThis section lists the various Security Advisories and
Errata Notices since &release.prev;.Security Advisories

UserlandThis section covers changes and additions to userland
applications, contributed software, and system utilities.Userland Configuration ChangesThe default &man.newsyslog.conf.5; now
includes files in the
/etc/newsyslog.conf.d/ and
/usr/local/etc/newsyslog.conf.d/
directories by default for &man.newsyslog.8;.The &man.mailwrapper.8; utility has been
updated to use &man.mailer.conf.5; from the
LOCALBASE environment variable, which
defaults to /usr/local
if unset.The MK_ARM_EABI
&man.src.conf.5; option has been removed.Userland Application ChangesThe &man.casperd.8; daemon has been
added, which provides access to functionality that is not
available in the capability mode
sandbox.When unable to load a kernel module with
&man.kldload.8;, a message informing to view output of
&man.dmesg.8; is now printed, opposed to the previous output
Exec format error..Allow &man.pciconf.8; to identify PCI
devices that are attached to a driver to be identified by
their device name instead of just the selector. Additionally,
an optional device argument to the -l flag
to restrict the output to only listing details about a single
device.A new flag, onifconsole
has been added to /etc/ttys. This allows
the system to provide a login prompt via serial console if the
device is an active kernel console, otherwise it is equivalent
to off.Support for displaying VPD for PCI
devices via &man.pciconf.8; has been added.&man.ping.8; protects against malicious
network packets using the Capsicum framework to drop
privileges.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.The Blowfish &man.crypt.3; default
format has been changed to
$2b$.The &man.pmcstat.8; utility has been
updated to include a new flag, -l, which
ends event collection after the specified number of
seconds.The &man.ps.1; utility has been updated
to include a new keyword, tracer, which
displays the PID of the tracing
process.Support for adding empty partitions has
been added to the &man.mkimg.1; utility.The &man.primes.6; utility has been
updated to correctly enumerate prime numbers between
4295098369 and
3825123056546413050, which prior to this
change, it would be possible for returned values to be
incorrectly identified as prime numbers.The &man.mkimg.1; utility has been
updated to include three options used to print information
about &man.mkimg.1; itself:OptionOutput--versionThe current version of the &man.mkimg.1;
utility--formatsThe disk image file formats supported by
&man.mkimg.1;--schemesThe partition schemes supported by
&man.mkimg.1;Userland &man.ctf.5; support in
&man.dtrace.1; has been added. With this change,
&man.dtrace.1; is able to resolve type info for function and
USDT probe arguments, and function return
values.The &man.elfdump.1; utility has been
updated to support capability mode provided by
&man.capsicum.4;.The
&man.fstyp.8; utility has been added, which is used to
determine the filesystem on a specified device.The libedit library
has been updated to support UTF-8, which
additionally provides unicode support to &man.sh.1;.The &man.ptrace.2; system
call has been updated include support for Altivec registers on
&os;/&arch.powerpc;.Contributed Software&man.lldb.1; has been updated to
upstream snapshot version r196259.Timezone data files have been updated to
version 2013i.&man.byacc.1; has been updated to

Clang have been updated to
version 3.4.Sendmail has been
updated from 8.14.7 to 8.14.9.file has been
updated to version 5.22.The binutils
suite of utilities has been updated to include upstream
patches that add new relocations for &arch.powerpc;
support.The
ELF Tool Chain has been updated to
upstream revision r3136.The texinfo
utility and info pages were removed from
the base system. The print/texinfo port should be
installed on systems where info pages are
needed.The ELF
object manipulation tools
addr2line,
elfcopy (strip),
nm,
size, and
strings were switched to the
versions from the ELF Tool Chain project.The libedit library
has been updated to include UTF-8 support,
adding UTF-8 support to the &man.sh.1;
shell.OpenSSL has
been updated to version 1.0.1l.Installation and Configuration ToolsThe &man.bsdinstall.8; partition editor
and &man.sade.8; utility have been updated to include native
ZFS support.The &os; installation utility,
&man.bsdinstall.8;, has been updated to set the
canmount &man.zfs.8; property to
off for the /var dataset, preventing the
contents of directories within /var from conflicting when
using multiple boot environments, such as that provided by
sysutils/beadm.The &man.bsdconfig.8; utility has been
updated to skip the initial &man.tzsetup.8;
UTC versus wall-clock time prompt when run
in a virtual machine, determined when the
kern.vm_guest &man.sysctl.8; is set to
1.The &man.bsdinstall.8; utility has been
updated to use the new &man.dpv.3; library to display progress
when extracting the &os; distributions./etc/rc.d
ScriptsThe &man.rc.8; subsystem has been
updated to allow configuring services in ${LOCALBASE}/etc/rc.conf.d/.
If LOCALBASE is unset, it defaults to
/usr/local.The mrouted
&man.rc.8; script has been removed from the base system. An
equivalent script is available from the net/mrouted port./etc/periodic
ScriptsThe daily &man.periodic.8; script
110.clean-tmps has been updated to avoid
crossing filesystem mount boundaries when cleaning files in
/tmp.Runtime Libraries and APIThe &man.readline.3; library is now
statically linked in software within the base system, and the
shared library is no longer installed, allowing the Ports
Collection to use a modern version of the library.The &man.strptime.3; library has been
updated to add support for POSIX-2001
features %U and
%W.The &man.dl.iterate.phdr.3; library has been
changed to always return the path name of the
ELF object in the
dlpi_name structure member.A
userland library for Chelsio Terminator 5 based iWARP cards
has been added, allowing userland RDMA
applications to work over compatible
NICs.The &man.gpio.3; library has been added,
providing a wrapper around the &man.gpio.4; kernel
interface.ABI CompatibilityThe &linux; compatibility version has
been updated to 2.6.18. The
compat.linux.osrelease &man.sysctl.8; is
evaluated when building the emulators/linux-c6 and related
ports.KernelThis section covers changes to kernel configurations, system
tuning, and system control parameters that are not otherwise
categorized.Kernel Bug FixesA 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.Support for
&man.dtrace.1; stack tracing has been fixed for
&os;/&arch.powerpc;, using the trapexit()
and asttrapexit() functions instead of
checking within addressed kernel space.A bug in &man.ipfw.4; that could
potentially lead to a kernel panic when using &man.dummynet.4;
at layer 2 has been fixed.Kernel ConfigurationThe IMAGACT_BINMISC
kernel configuration option has been enabled by default,
which enables application execution through emulators, such
as Qemu.The VT kernel
configuration file has been removed, and the &man.vt.4;
driver is included in the GENERIC kernel.
To enable &man.vt.4;, enter set kern.vty=vt
at the &man.loader.8; prompt during boot, or add
kern.vty=vt to &man.loader.conf.5; and
reboot the system.System Tuning and ControlsDevices and DriversThis section covers changes and additions to devices and
device drivers since &release.prev;.Device DriversSupport for GPS ports has been added to
&man.uhso.4;.The &man.full.4; device has been added,
and the lindev(4) device has been removed.
Prior to this change, lindev(4) provided
only the /dev/full character device,
returning ENOSPC on write attempts. As
this device is not specific to &linux;, a native &os; version
has been added.Hardware context support has been
added to the drm/i915 driver, adding
support for Mesa 9.2 and
later.The &man.vt.4; driver has been updated,
replacing the bitmapped kern.vt.spclkeys
&man.sysctl.8; with individual
kern.vt.kbd_* variants.The &man.hpet.4; driver has been updated
to create a
/dev/hpetN
device, providing access to HPET from
userspace.Storage DriversThe &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;.The
&man.ctl.4; subsystem has been updated, increasing the ports
limit from 128 to 256,
and LUN limit from 256
to 1024.The asr(4) driver has
been removed, and is no longer supported.Network DriversSupport for Broadcom chipsets BCM57764,
BCM57767, BCM57782, BCM57786 and BCM57787 has been added to
&man.bge.4;.Support for the &intel; Centrino™
Wireless-N 135 chipset has been added.Firmware for &intel; Centrino™
Wireless-N 105 devices has been added to the base
system.The deprecated nve(4) driver has been
removed. Users of NVIDIA nForce MCP network adapters are
advised to use the &man.nfe.4; driver instead, which has been
the default driver for this hardware since
&os; 7.0.The if_nf10bmac(4)
device has been added, providing support for NetFPGA-10G
Embedded CPU Ethernet Core.The if_nf10bmac(4) driver operates on
the FPGA, and is not suited for the PCI host
interface.The &man.ath.hal.4; driver has been
updated to support the Atheros AR1111 chipset.Support for the &intel; Centrino™
Wireless-N 105 chipset has been added.Support for the &man.cxgbe.4; Terminator
5 (T5) 10G/40G cards has been added to &man.netmap.4;.The &man.alc.4; driver has been updated
to support AR816x and AR817x ethernet controllers.The &man.vxlan.4; driver has been added,
which creates a virtual Layer 2 (Ethernet) network overlaid in
a Layer 3 (IP/UDP) network. The &man.vxlan.4; driver is
analogous to &man.vlan.4;, but is designed to be better suited
for large, multiple-tenant datacenter environments.The
&man.gre.4; driver has been significantly overhauled, and has
been split into two separate modules, &man.gre.4; and
&man.me.4;.Hardware SupportThis section covers general hardware support for physical
machines, hypervisors, and virtualization environments, as well
as hardware changes and updates that do not otherwise fit in
other sections of this document.Hardware SupportThe &man.asmc.4; driver has been
updated to support the &apple; MacMini 3,1.Support for &os;/ia64 has been dropped
as of &os; 11.An issue that could cause a system to
hang when entering ACPI
S3 state (suspend to
RAM) has been corrected in the &man.acpi.4;
and &man.pci.4; drivers.The power management unit
subsystem has been updated to support power button events on
certain &arch.powerpc; hardware, such as aluminum
PowerBook ®.The &man.hwpmc.4;
driver has been updated to correct performance counter
sampling on G4 (MPC74xxx) and G5 class processors.The
OpenCrypto framework has been
updated to include AES-ICM and
AES-GCM modes, both of which have also been
added to the &man.aesni.4; driver.Virtualization SupportSupport for the Virtual Interrupt
Delivery feature of &intel; VT-x is enabled if
supported by the CPU. This feature can be disabled by running
sysctl hw.vmm.vmx.use_apic_vid=0.
Additionally, to persist this setting across reboots, add
hw.vmm.vmx.use_apic_vid=0 to
/etc/sysctl.conf.Support for Posted Interrupt
Processing is enabled if supported by the CPU. This
feature can be disabled by running sysctl
hw.vmm.vmx.use_apic_pir=0. Additionally, to
persist this setting across reboots, add
hw.vmm.vmx.use_apic_pir=0 to
/etc/sysctl.conf.Unmapped IO support has been added to
&man.virtio_blk.4;.Unmapped IO support has been added to
&man.virtio_scsi.4;.The &man.virtio_random.4; driver has
been added to harvest entropy from the host system.&os;/&arch.i386; guests can be run under
bhyve.Support for running a &os;/&arch.amd64;
Xen guest instance as
PVH guest has been added.
PVH mode, short for Para-Virtualized
Hardware, uses para-virtualized drivers for boot and
I/O, and uses hardware virtualization extensions for all other
tasks, without the need for emulation.The &man.virtio.console.4; driver has
been added, which provides an interface to VirtIO console
devices through a &man.tty.4; device.ARM SupportThe &man.nand.4; device is enabled for
ARM devices by default.An issue that could cause
instability when detecting SD cards on the
Raspberry Pi SOC has been fixed.The bcm2835_cpufreq
driver has been added, which supports CPU
frequency and voltage control on the Raspberry Pi
SOC.StorageThis section covers changes and additions to file systems
and other storage subsystems, both local and networked.Networked StorageThe new
filesystem automount facility, &man.autofs.5;, has been added.
The new &man.autofs.5; facility is similar to that found in
other &unix;-like operating systems, such as OS X™
and Solaris™. The &man.autofs.5; facility uses
a &sun;-compatible &man.auto.master.5; configuration file, and
is administered with the &man.automount.8; userland utility,
and the &man.automountd.8; and &man.autounmountd.8;
daemons.ZFSThe arc_meta_limit
statistics are now visible through the
kstat &man.sysctl.8;. As a result of this
change, the vfs.zfs.arc_meta_used
&man.sysctl.8; has been removed, and replaced with the
kstat.zfs.misc.arcstats.arc_meta_used
&man.sysctl.8;.&man.geom.4;Support for the
disklabel64 partitioning scheme has been
added to &man.gpart.8;.Boot Loader ChangesThis section covers the boot loader, boot menu, and other
boot-related changes.Boot Loader ChangesThe &man.vt.4; driver has been made the
default system console driver. The &man.syscons.4; driver is
still available, and can be enabled by adding
kern.vty=sc in &man.loader.conf.5;.
Alternatively, &man.syscons.4; can be enabled at boot time by
entering set kern.vty=sc at the
&man.loader.8; prompt.Boot Menu ChangesNetworkingThis section describes changes that affect networking in
&os;.Network ProcolsSupport for the IPX network transport
protocol has been removed, and will not be supported in
&os; 11 and later releases.Support for PLPMTUD
blackhole detection (RFC 4821) has been
added to the &man.tcp.4; stack, disabled by default. New
control tunables have been added:TunableDescriptionnet.inet.tcp.pmtud_blackhole_detectionEnables or disables PLPMTUD
blackhole detectionnet.inet.tcp.pmtud_blackhole_mssMSS to try for IPv4net.inet.tcp.v6pmtud_blackhole_mssMSS to try for IPv6New monitoring &man.sysctl.8;s haven been added:TunableDescriptionnet.inet.tcp.pmtud_blackhole_activatedNumber of times the code was activated to attempt
