on their own without even attempting to get concensus in the IETF, but
there are also lots of Win95/NT boxes out there.
CLoses PR#1494
Submitted-By: Peter Childs <pjchilds@imforei.apana.org.au>
NOT being maintained, that I vote for killing this document soon and
moving everything into the Handbook. The FAQ needs to be "driven" a lot
more aggressively than it has been, and since that's clearly never going to
happen then we should kill it to halt the spread of outdated information.
Major: When blocking occurs in allocbuf() for VMIO files,
excess wire counts could accumulate.
Major: Pages are incorrectly accumulated into the physical
buffer for clustered reads. This happens when bogus
page is needed.
Minor: When reclaiming buffers, the async flag on the buffer
needs to be zero, or the reclaim is not optimal.
Minor: The age flag should be cleared, if a buffer is wanted.
- Add the .PHONY, .PARALLEL, and .WAIT directives
- Added the -B and -m commandline flags
- misc. man page cleanups
- numerous job-related enhancements
- removed unused header file (bit.h)
- add util.c for functions not found in other envs.
- and a few coordinated whitespace changes
Special thanks to Christos Zoulas <christos@netbsd.org>
for help in the merge. A 'diff -ur' between Net and
FreeBSD now only contains sccsid-related diffs. :)
Obtained from: NetBSD, christos@netbsd.org, and me
not officially documented and are subject to change.
-hdr and -ftr
Specify files to insert at the top and bottom of every
page. This is similar in result to the existing -ssi
option but everything happens at build time. If the
string @@UPDATED@@ appears in either file it will be
replaced with "Updated" followed by the current date.
-white
Make the pages black text on white background.
For me, more often than not, the backgrounded syslogd daemon is not
yet ready to process log messages before other things (such as named)
want to log a heap of them. It seems that it's the O_SYNC writes of
the stuff coming in from /dev/klog that's the slowdown.
Anyway, instead of using the libc daemon, roll a modified version. This
one has a timeout. The child will wait for either the timeout to expire
or the child process to signal it to let it know that it's "ready" and
the /dev/log socket is set up and active, so it's safe to continue the
boot. It adds a small fraction of a second pause to the boot time, but on
the other hand the overall boot time is *quicker* since the disk is not
being thrashed while the log messages are getting written out synchronously
one by one while other daemons are loading in parallel.
The timeout is in case the child segfaults or something before becoming
fully operational.
