- removes obsolete files/dirs or libraries.
- works in interactive (default) and batch mode
- respects DISTDIR
- documented in UPDATING and build(7)
The head of the file ObsoleteFiles.inc contains instructions how to add
obsolete files/dirs/libs to the list. Obviously one should add obsolete
files to this list, when he removes a file/dir/lib from the basesystem.
Additionally add check-old target:
- allows re@ to check if a file on the obsolete list resurfaces
Design goals:
- allows full control by the user (default interactive mode)
- possibility of scripted removal of obsolete files (batch mode)
- opt-in removal of files (explicit list of files)
- seperate removal of libs (2 delete targets)
Important design decissions:
- structured list of files to remove instead of a plain text file:
* allows to remove additional files if a NO_foo knob is specified
without the need to change the targets (no NO_foo knob is respected
yet)
- not using mtree like NetBSD does:
* mtree doesn't has an interactive mode

ifconfig_DEFAULT variable. Unlike pccard_ifconfig, ifconfig_DEFAULT
applies to all interfaces that do not specify an ifconfig_<ifn>
variable rather than just those listed in removable_interfaces.
- Correct the list of interfaces when network_interfaces and
removable_interfaces are both set by including removable_interfaces
in the list of canidates.
- When listing dhcp interfaces, include those with other ifconfig
options so nat works.

support 4->6 upgrades, this is moot. Most 4.x installations even,
have things compatible with 5 at thsi point, but some don't, so I'll
leave it in the branch...

clock time to uptime because wall clock time may go backwards.
This is a change in the API which will impact SNMP agents who are using
ifi_epoch to set RFC2233's ifCounterDiscontinuityTime. None are know to
exist today. This will not impact applications that are using the
<index, epoch> tuple to verify interface uniqueness except that it
eliminates a race which could lead to a false assumption of uniqueness.
Because this is a behavior change, bump __FreeBSD_version.

PAGE_SIZE.
Unlike originator of the PR suggests retain MAXSHELLCMDLEN definition
(he has been proposing to replace it with PAGE_SIZE everywhere), not only
this reduced the diff significantly, but prevents code obfuscation and also
allows to increase/decrease this parameter easily if needed.

People wishing to see prior changes are encouraged to look at the
UPDATING file on the RELENG_5 branch. Document when RELENG_5 was
branched, as well as the 5.3 release date, as shown in the CVS logs
for newvers.sh.
This change should not be MFC'd.

Note that this commit removes only the functional part of T/TCP
from the tcp_* related functions in the kernel. Other features
introduced with RFC1644 are left intact (socket layer changes,
sendmsg(2) on connection oriented protocols) and are meant to
be reused by a simpler and less intrusive reimplemention of the
previous T/TCP functionality.

People have a tendency to add things to libmap.conf and forget about them
(as we've seen in the mailing lists before).
The compat4x port should be used instead.
