complete backout as the ntpd_sync_on_start etc/rc.conf tunable is still
present, though the default is now NO (was YES). Since we're no longer
syncing time at startup by default when ntpd is enabled (as was the case
24hrs ago), remove UPDATING entry pointing out that ntpd(1) -g is slower
than ntpdate(1).
Hopefully ntpd_sync_on_start="YES" can be made the default for -CURRENT
after 5.3 is cut. At the very least, this should be set to YES when a
user requests to have ntpd enabled via sysinstall(1).

calls to ntpd -g. ntpd is noticeably slower than ntpdate, but is also more
accurate. This removes the nasty hackery in rc.d/ntpdate that would parse
out ntp servers from /etc/ntp.conf (ntpd knows how to read its own config
file). By default, ntpd *will* sync with its listed time servers. To
turn this off so that ntpd does not sync, ntpd_sync_on_start="NO" can be
added to /etc/rc.conf. If ntpd is not enabled (the default), then time is
not synced on startup. ntpdate has been depreciated by the ntpd authors
for quite some time so this change shouldn't be unexpected.

- Tweak the pointer to fit the FreeBSD default location share/examples/pf
- Account for the new directory in BSD.usr.dist (no hier(7) change required
as share/examples is an opaque item there).

from list_net_interfaces() when network_interfaces=auto.
Rationale: Since the auto case is special, the lesser evil
had to be chosen among not adding cloned interfaces to
_tmplist or removing duplicates from _tmplist after adding
cloned interfaces. Since list_net_interfaces() must not use
/usr/bin tools, the former "evil" appeared clearer and much
more efficient. (See the PR audit trail for discussion.)

start the outbound daemon. Only one daemon should be started.
Also, do not rebuild database maps at boot time. The code didn't pay
attention to SENDMAIL_MAP_TYPE and assumed 'hash'. Also, admins may
not want maps automatically rebuilt just because the back end database
has changed. Finally, some maps are built with mode tools than just
makemap (e.g., using cidrexpand on the access text file before sending
it to makemap).

It's also possible to restart an interface(s):

This required some changes to rc.subr(8) so that if the start/stop commands
are overidden the rest of the command line (after the start/stop/etc... cmd)
is passed through to the subroutines.
o Separate out local (ports) scripts that use rc.d, and the old style
startup/shutdown scripts and execute them separately. On startup the
rc.d style scripts are executed first and then the old-style scripts.
On shutdown, exactly the reverse happens.
o The rc.d ports scripts should now behave more like base system scripts.
Scripts ending in .sh will be sourced into the current shell, while the
rest will be executed in a subshell. Previously, all ports scripts,
regardless of the .sh suffix, were executed in a subshell.
o The parent script, /etc/rc.d/localpkg, passes its command line arguments
straight to the rc.d ports scripts. This means they should now honor
faststop and faststart commands as well. Old style scripts, should not see
any differences. They will still get either a start or stop command.
o The initial phrase shown during shutdown has been changed to use
"local packages" instead of "daemon processes" to be more inline with the
phrase used during local package startup. The phrases are also used only for
old-style ports script startup/shutdown, whereas previously they were being
used for both rc.d and old-style scripts. This should make startup/shutdown
output a bit less ugly.

in order to avoid re-interpreting rc.subr every time an rc.d
script is run. In my tests, this speeds up rc time by about
8-10%.
This class is used for detecting volume labels on file systems:
UFS, MSDOSFS (FAT12, FAT16, FAT32) and ISO9660.
It also provide native labelization (there is no need for file system).
g_label_ufs.c is based on geom_vol_ffs from Gordon Tetlow.
g_label_msdos.c and g_label_iso9660.c are probably hacks, I just found
where volume labels are stored and I use those offsets here,
but with this class it should be easy to do it as it should be done by
someone who know how.
Implementing volume labels detection for other file systems also should
be trivial.
New providers are created in those directories:
/dev/ufs/ (UFS1, UFS2)
/dev/msdosfs/ (FAT12, FAT16, FAT32)
/dev/iso9660/ (ISO9660)
/dev/label/ (native labels, configured with glabel(8))
Manual page cleanups and some comments inside were submitted by
Simon L. Nielsen, who was, as always, very helpful. Thanks!
Most notably, this cleans up messages when shutting down from
single user. In such a case there are usually no daemons running,
but their pid files are still in /var/run. This causes rc.d to
output diagnostics about daemons with pidfiles, but that are
not running.
