1 Introduction

+ +

This document contains the hardware compatibility notes for FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE. It +lists the hardware platforms supported by FreeBSD, as well as the various types of +hardware devices (storage controllers, network interfaces, and so on), along with known +working instances of these devices.

+
+ +
+
+

2 Supported Processors and System +Boards

+ +

This section provides some architecture-specific information about the specific +processors and systems that are supported by each architecture.

+ +
+
+

2.1 amd64

+ +

Since mid-2003 FreeBSD/amd64 has supported the AMD64 (“Hammer”) and Intel® EM64T architecture, and is now one of the Tier-1 +platforms (fully supported architecture), which are expected to be Production Quality +with respects to all aspects of the FreeBSD operating system, including installation and +development environments.

+ +

Note that there are two names for this architecture, AMD64 (AMD) and Intel EM64T +(Extended Memory 64-bit Technology). 64-bit mode of the two architectures are almost +compatible with each other, and FreeBSD/amd64 should support them both.

+ +

As of this writing, the following processors are supported:

+ +
    +
  • +

    AMD Athlon™64 +(“Clawhammer”).

    +
  • + +
  • +

    AMD Opteron™ +(“Sledgehammer”).

    +
  • + +
  • +

    All multi-core Intel Xeon™ processors except Sossaman have EM64T support.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    The single-core Intel Xeon processors “Nocona”, “Irwindale”, +“Potomac”, and “Cranford” have EM64T support.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    All Intel Core 2 (not Core Duo) and later +processors

    +
  • + +
  • +

    All Intel Pentium® D +processors

    +
  • + +
  • +

    Intel Pentium 4s and +Celeron Ds using the “Cedar Mill” core have EM64T support.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    Some Intel Pentium 4s +and Celeron Ds using the “Prescott” core have EM64T support. See the Intel Processor Spec Finder for +the definitive answer about EM64T support in Intel processors.

    +
  • +
+ +

Intel EM64T is an extended version of IA-32 (x86) and +different from Intel IA-64 (Itanium) architecture, which +FreeBSD/ia64 supports. Some Intel's old documentation +refers to Intel EM64T as “64-bit extension +technology” or “IA-32e”.

+ +

The largest tested memory configuration to date is 64GB. SMP support has been recently +completed and is reasonably robust.

+ +

In many respects, FreeBSD/amd64 is similar to FreeBSD/i386, in terms of drivers +supported. There may be some issues with 64-bit cleanliness in some (particularly older) +drivers. Generally, drivers that already function correctly on other 64-bit platforms +should work.

+ +

FreeBSD/amd64 is a very young platform on FreeBSD. While the core FreeBSD kernel and +base system components are generally fairly robust, there are likely to still be rough +edges, particularly with third party packages.

+
+ +
+
+

2.2 i386

+ +

FreeBSD/i386 runs on a wide variety of “IBM PC compatible” machines. Due +to the wide range of hardware available for this architecture, it is impossible to +exhaustively list all combinations of equipment supported by FreeBSD. Nevertheless, some +general guidelines are presented here.

+ +

Almost all i386™-compatible processors with a +floating point unit are supported. All Intel processors +beginning with the 80486 are supported, including the 80486, Pentium, Pentium Pro, Pentium II, Pentium III, Pentium 4, and variants thereof, such as the Xeon and Celeron® processors. +All i386-compatible AMD processors are also supported, +including the Am486®, Am5x86®, K5, AMD-K6® (and +variants), AMD Athlon (including Athlon-MP, +Athlon-XP, Athlon-4, and Athlon Thunderbird), and AMD Duron™ processors. The AMD Élan SC520 +embedded processor is supported. The Transmeta Crusoe is recognized and supported, as are +i386-compatible processors from Cyrix and NexGen.

+ +

There is a wide variety of motherboards available for this architecture. Motherboards +using the ISA, VLB, EISA, AGP, and PCI expansion busses are well-supported. There is some +limited support for the MCA (“MicroChannel”) expansion bus used in the IBM +PS/2 line of PCs.

+ +

Symmetric multi-processor (SMP) systems are generally supported by FreeBSD, although +in some cases, BIOS or motherboard bugs may generate some problems. Perusal of the +archives of the FreeBSD symmetric multiprocessing mailing list may yield some +clues.

+ +

FreeBSD will take advantage of HyperThreading (HTT) support on Intel CPUs that support this feature. A kernel with the options SMP feature enabled will automatically detect the +additional logical processors. The default FreeBSD scheduler treats the logical +processors the same as additional physical processors; in other words, no attempt is made +to optimize scheduling decisions given the shared resources between logical processors +within the same CPU. Because this naive scheduling can result in suboptimal performance, +under certain circumstances it may be useful to disable the logical processors with the +the machdep.hlt_logical_cpus sysctl variable. It is also +possible to halt any CPU in the idle loop with the machdep.hlt_cpus sysctl variable. The +smp(4) manual +page has more details.

+ +

FreeBSD will take advantage of Physical Address Extensions (PAE) support on CPUs that +support this feature. A kernel with the PAE feature enabled will +detect memory above 4 gigabytes and allow it to be used by the system. This feature +places constraints on the device drivers and other features of FreeBSD which may be used; +consult the +pae(4) manpage +for more details.

+ +

FreeBSD will generally run on i386-based laptops, albeit with varying levels of +support for certain hardware features such as sound, graphics, power management, and +PCCARD expansion slots. These features tend to vary in idiosyncratic ways between +machines, and frequently require special-case support in FreeBSD to work around hardware +bugs or other oddities. When in doubt, a search of the archives of the FreeBSD +laptop computer mailing list may be useful.

+ +

Most modern laptops (as well as many desktops) use the Advanced Configuration and +Power Management (ACPI) standard. FreeBSD supports ACPI via the ACPI Component +Architecture reference implementation from Intel, as +described in the +acpi(4) manual +page. The use of ACPI causes instabilities on some machines and it may be necessary to +disable the ACPI driver, which is normally loaded via a kernel module. This may be +accomplished by adding the following line to /boot/device.hints:

+ +
+hint.acpi.0.disabled="1"
+
+ +

Users debugging ACPI-related problems may find it useful to disable portions of the +ACPI functionality. The +acpi(4) manual +page has more information on how to do this via loader tunables.

+ +

ACPI depends on a Differentiated System Descriptor Table (DSDT) provided by each +machine's BIOS. Some machines have bad or incomplete DSDTs, which prevents ACPI from +functioning correctly. Replacement DSDTs for some machines can be found at the DSDT section of the +ACPI4Linux project Web site. +FreeBSD can use these DSDTs to override the DSDT provided by the BIOS; see the +acpi(4) manual +page for more information.

+
+ +
+
+

2.3 ia64

+ +

Currently supported processors are the Itanium® and the Itanium 2.

+ +

Supported chipsets include:

+ +
    +
  • +

    HP zx1

    +
  • + +
  • +

    Intel 460GX

    +
  • + +
  • +

    Intel E8870

    +
  • +
+ +

Both Uniprocessor (UP) and Symmetric Multi-processor (SMP) configurations are +supported.

+ +

Most devices that can be found in or are compatible with ia64 machines are fully +supported. The notable exception is the VGA console. The FreeBSD support for VGA consoles +is at this time too much based on PC hardware and not all ia64 machines have chipsets +that provide sufficient PC legacy support. As such +syscons(4) can +not be enabled and the use of a serial console is required.

+
+ +
+
+

2.4 pc98

+ +

NEC PC-9801/9821 series with almost all i386-compatible +processors, including 80486, Pentium, Pentium Pro, Pentium II, and +variants. All i386-compatible processors by AMD, Cyrix, +IBM, and IDT are also supported.

+ +

NEC FC-9801/9821 series, and NEC SV-98 series (both of them are compatible with +PC-9801/9821 series) should be supported.

+ +

EPSON PC-386/486/586 series, which are compatible with NEC PC-9801 series are +supported.

+ +

High-resolution mode is not supported. NEC PC-98XA/XL/RL/XL^2, and NEC PC-H98 series +are supported in normal (PC-9801 compatible) mode only.

+ +

Although there are some multi-processor systems (such as Rs20/B20), SMP-related +features of FreeBSD are not supported yet.

+ +

PC-9801/9821 standard bus (called C-Bus), PC-9801NOTE expansion bus (110pin), and PCI +bus are supported. New Extend Standard Architecture (NESA) bus (used in PC-H98, SV-H98, +and FC-H98 series) is not supported.

+
+ +
+
+

2.5 powerpc

+ +

The information for this paragraph has yet to be compiled.

+
+ +
+
+

2.6 sparc64

+ +

This section describes the systems currently known to be supported by FreeBSD on the +UltraSPARC® platform. For background information on +the various hardware designs see the Sun System Handbook.

+ +

SMP is supported on all systems with more than 1 processor.

+ +

When using the GENERIC kernel, FreeBSD/sparc64 systems not +equipped with a framebuffer supported by the +creator(4) +(Sun™ Creator, Sun +Creator3D and Sun Elite3D) or +machfb(4) (Sun PGX and Sun PGX64 as well as +the ATI Mach64 chips found onboard in for example Sun Blade™ 100, Sun Blade 150, Sun Ultra™ 5 and Sun Ultra +10) driver must use the serial console.

+ +

If you have a system that is not listed here, it may not have been tested with FreeBSD +8.0-RELEASE. We encourage you to try it and send a note to the FreeBSD +SPARC porting mailing list with your results, including which devices work and which +do not.

3 Supported Devices

+ +

This section describes the devices currently known to be supported by FreeBSD. Other +configurations may also work, but simply have not been tested yet. Feedback, updates, and +corrections to this list are encouraged.

+ +

Where possible, the drivers applicable to each device or class of devices is listed. +If the driver in question has a manual page in the FreeBSD base distribution (most +should), it is referenced here. Information on specific models of supported devices, +controllers, etc. can be found in the manual pages.

+ +
+
+

Note: The device lists in this document are being generated automatically from +FreeBSD manual pages. This means that some devices, which are supported by multiple +drivers, may appear multiple times.

This document gives a brief introduction to FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE. It includes some +information on how to obtain FreeBSD, a listing of various ways to contact the FreeBSD +Project, and pointers to some other sources of information.

+
+
+ +
+
+

1 Introduction

+ +

This distribution is a release of FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE, the latest point along the +8.0-STABLE branch.

+ +
+
+

1.1 About FreeBSD

+ +

FreeBSD is an operating system based on 4.4 BSD Lite for AMD64 and Intel EM64T based +PC hardware (amd64), Intel, AMD, Cyrix or NexGen “x86” based PC hardware +(i386), Intel Itanium Processor based computers (ia64), NEC PC-9801/9821 series PCs and +compatibles (pc98), and UltraSPARC® machines +(sparc64). Versions for the ARM® (arm), MIPS® (mips), and PowerPC® (powerpc) architectures are currently under +development as well. FreeBSD works with a wide variety of peripherals and configurations +and can be used for everything from software development to games to Internet Service +Provision.

+ +

This release of FreeBSD contains everything you need to run such a system, including +full source code for the kernel and all utilities in the base distribution. With the +source distribution installed, you can literally recompile the entire system from scratch +with one command, making it ideal for students, researchers, or users who simply want to +see how it all works.

+ +

A large collection of third-party ported software (the “Ports Collection”) +is also provided to make it easy to obtain and install all your favorite traditional +UNIX® utilities for FreeBSD. Each “port” +consists of a set of scripts to retrieve, configure, build, and install a piece of +software, with a single command. Over 20,000 ports, from editors to programming languages +to graphical applications, make FreeBSD a powerful and comprehensive operating +environment that extends far beyond what's provided by many commercial versions of UNIX. Most ports are also available as pre-compiled +“packages”, which can be quickly installed from the installation program.

+
+ +
+
+

1.2 Target Audience

+ +

This release of FreeBSD is suitable for all users. It has undergone a period of +testing and quality assurance checking to ensure the highest reliability and +dependability.

+
+
+ +
+
+

2 Obtaining FreeBSD

+ +

FreeBSD may be obtained in a variety of ways. This section focuses on those ways that +are primarily useful for obtaining a complete FreeBSD distribution, rather than updating +an existing installation.

+ +
+
+

2.1 CDROM and DVD

+ +

FreeBSD -RELEASE distributions may be ordered on CDROM or DVD from several publishers. +This is frequently the most convenient way to obtain FreeBSD for new installations, as it +provides a convenient way to quickly reinstall the system if necessary. Some +distributions include some of the optional, precompiled “packages” from the +FreeBSD Ports Collection, or other extra material.

+ +

A list of the CDROM and DVD publishers known to the project are listed in the “Obtaining FreeBSD” appendix to the Handbook.

+
+ +
+
+

2.2 FTP

+ +

You can use FTP to retrieve FreeBSD and any or all of its optional packages from ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/, which is the +official FreeBSD release site, or any of its “mirrors”.

+ +

Lists of locations that mirror FreeBSD can be found in the FTP Sites section of the Handbook, or on the http://mirrorlist.FreeBSD.org/ +Web pages. Finding a close (in networking terms) mirror from which to download the +distribution is highly recommended.

+ +

Additional mirror sites are always welcome. Contact for +more details on becoming an official mirror site. You can also find useful information +for mirror sites at the Mirroring +FreeBSD article.

+ +

Mirrors generally contain the ISO images generally used to create a CDROM of a FreeBSD +release. They usually also contain floppy disk images (for applicable platforms), as well +as the files necessary to do an installation over the network. Finally mirrors sites +usually contain a set of packages for the most current release.

+
+
+ +
+
+

3 Contacting the FreeBSD +Project

+ +
+

3.1 Email and Mailing Lists

+ +

For any questions or general technical support issues, please send mail to the FreeBSD +general questions mailing list.

+ +

If you're tracking the 8.0-STABLE development efforts, you must join the FreeBSD-CURRENT mailing list, in order to keep abreast of recent +developments and changes that may affect the way you use and maintain the system.

+ +

Being a largely-volunteer effort, the FreeBSD Project is always happy to have extra +hands willing to help--there are already far more desired enhancements than there is time +to implement them. To contact the developers on technical matters, or with offers of +help, please send mail to the FreeBSD +technical discussions mailing list.

+ +

Please note that these mailing lists can experience significant amounts of traffic. If you have slow or expensive +mail access, or are only interested in keeping up with major FreeBSD events, you may find +it preferable to subscribe instead to the FreeBSD +announcements mailing list.

+ +

All of the mailing lists can be freely joined by anyone wishing to do so. Visit the FreeBSD Mailman Info +Page. This will give you more information on joining the various lists, accessing +archives, etc. There are a number of mailing lists targeted at special interest groups +not mentioned here; more information can be obtained either from the Mailman pages or the +mailing lists +section of the FreeBSD Web site.

+ +
+
+

Important: Do not send +email to the lists asking to be subscribed. Use the Mailman interface instead.

+
+
+
+ +
+
+

3.2 Submitting Problem Reports

+ +

Suggestions, bug reports and contributions of code are always valued--please do not +hesitate to report any problems you may find. Bug reports with attached fixes are of +course even more welcome.

+ +

The preferred method to submit bug reports from a machine with Internet mail +connectivity is to use the +send-pr(1) +command. “Problem Reports” (PRs) submitted in this way will be filed and +their progress tracked; the FreeBSD developers will do their best to respond to all +reported bugs as soon as possible. A list of all active +PRs is available on the FreeBSD Web site; this list is useful to see what potential +problems other users have encountered.

+ +

Note that +send-pr(1) +itself is a shell script that should be easy to move even onto a non-FreeBSD system. +Using this interface is highly preferred. If, for some reason, you are unable to use +send-pr(1) to +submit a bug report, you can try to send it to the FreeBSD +problem reports mailing list.

+ +

For more information, “Writing FreeBSD Problem Reports”, available on the FreeBSD +Web site, has a number of helpful hints on writing and submitting effective problem +reports.

+
+
+ +
+
+

4 Further Reading

+ +

There are many sources of information about FreeBSD; some are included with this +distribution, while others are available on-line or in print versions.

+ +
+
+

4.1 Release +Documentation

+ +

A number of other files provide more specific information about this release +distribution. These files are provided in various formats. Most distributions will +include both ASCII text (.TXT) and HTML (.HTM) renditions. Some distributions may also include other formats +such as Portable Document Format (.PDF).

+ +
    +
  • +

    README.TXT: This file, which gives some general information +about FreeBSD as well as some cursory notes about obtaining a distribution.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    RELNOTES.TXT: The release notes, showing what's new and +different in FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE compared to the previous release (FreeBSD +7.2-RELEASE).

    +
  • + +
  • +

    HARDWARE.TXT: The hardware compatibility list, showing +devices with which FreeBSD has been tested and is known to work.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    ERRATA.TXT: Release errata. Late-breaking, post-release +information can be found in this file, which is principally applicable to releases (as +opposed to snapshots). It is important to consult this file before installing a release +of FreeBSD, as it contains the latest information on problems which have been found and +fixed since the release was created.

    +
  • +
+ +
+
+

On platforms that support +sysinstall(8) +(currently amd64, i386, ia64, pc98, and sparc64), these documents are generally available +via the Documentation menu during installation. Once the system is installed, you can +revisit this menu by re-running the +sysinstall(8) +utility.

+ +
+
+

Note: It is extremely important to read the errata for any given release before +installing it, to learn about any “late-breaking news” or post-release +problems. The errata file accompanying each release (most likely right next to this file) +is already out of date by definition, but other copies are kept updated on the Internet +and should be consulted as the “current errata” for this release. These other +copies of the errata are located at http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/ (as well as any sites which keep +up-to-date mirrors of this location).

+
+
+
+ +
+
+

4.2 Manual Pages

+ +

As with almost all UNIX like operating systems, FreeBSD +comes with a set of on-line manual pages, accessed through the +man(1) command +or through the hypertext +manual pages gateway on the FreeBSD Web site. In general, the manual pages provide +information on the different commands and APIs available to the FreeBSD user.

+ +

In some cases, manual pages are written to give information on particular topics. +Notable examples of such manual pages are +tuning(7) (a +guide to performance tuning), +security(7) (an +introduction to FreeBSD security), and +style(9) (a +style guide to kernel coding).

+
+ +
+
+

4.3 Books and Articles

+ +

Two highly-useful collections of FreeBSD-related information, maintained by the +FreeBSD Project, are the FreeBSD Handbook and FreeBSD FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions +document). On-line versions of the Handbook and FAQ are +always available from the FreeBSD Documentation page or its mirrors. If you install the doc distribution set, you can use a Web browser to read the +Handbook and FAQ locally. In particular, note that the Handbook contains a step-by-step +guide to installing FreeBSD.

+ +

A number of on-line books and articles, also maintained by the FreeBSD Project, cover +more-specialized, FreeBSD-related topics. This material spans a wide range of topics, +from effective use of the mailing lists, to dual-booting FreeBSD with other operating +systems, to guidelines for new committers. Like the Handbook and FAQ, these documents are +available from the FreeBSD Documentation Page or in the doc +distribution set.

+ +

A listing of other books and documents about FreeBSD can be found in the bibliography of the FreeBSD Handbook. Because of FreeBSD's strong UNIX heritage, many other articles and books written for UNIX systems are applicable as well, some of which are also +listed in the bibliography.

1 Introduction

+ +

This document contains the release notes for FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE. It describes +recently added, changed, or deleted features of FreeBSD. It also provides some notes on +upgrading from previous versions of FreeBSD.

+ +

This distribution of FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE is a release distribution. It can be found at +ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/ or any of its +mirrors. More information on obtaining this (or other) release distributions of FreeBSD +can be found in the “Obtaining FreeBSD” appendix to the FreeBSD +Handbook.

+ +

All users are encouraged to consult the release errata before installing FreeBSD. 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 FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE can be found on the FreeBSD Web site.

+
+ +
+
+

2 What's New

+ +

This section describes the most user-visible new or changed features in FreeBSD since +7.0-RELEASE, and changes shown in Release Notes for the previous releases are marked as +[7.1R] and [7.2R].

+ +

Typical release note items document recent security advisories issued after +7.0-RELEASE, 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 FreeBSD between releases; this document focuses primarily on security advisories, +user-visible changes, and major architectural improvements.

+ +
+
+

2.2 Kernel Changes

+ +

The FreeBSD GENERIC kernel now includes Trusted BSD MAC +(Mandatory Access Control) support. No MAC policy module is loaded by default.

+ +

[i386] A loader tunable hw.clflush_disable has been added +to avoid panic (trap 9) at map_invalidate_cache_range() +even if Intel CPU is used. This tunable can be set to -1 +(default), 0 and 1. The -1 is same as the current behavior, which automatically disable CLFLUSH on Intel CPUs without CPUID_SS +(this should be occurred on Xen only). You can specify 1 when +this panic happened on non-Intel CPUs (such as AMD's). Because disabling CLFLUSH can reduce performance, you can try with setting 0 on Intel CPUs without SS to use CLFLUSH feature.

+ +

The FreeBSD newbus subsystem is now MPSAFE.

+ +

The +jail(8) +subsystem has been updated. Changes include:

+ +
    +
  • +

    A new virtualization container named “vimage” has been implemented. This +is not enabled by default. To enable this, add the following kernel options to your +kernel configuration file and rebuild the kernel:

    + +
    +options    VIMAGE
    +
    + +

    Note that an option SCTP in the GENERIC kernel is not compatible with the VIMAGE. This limitation will be fixed in the next release.

    + +

    The vimage is a jail with a virtualized instance of the FreeBSD network stack. It can +be created by using +jail(8) command +like this:

    + +
    +# jail -c vnet name=vnet1 host.hostname=vnet1.example.net path=/ persist
    +
    + +

    The vimage has own loopback interface and a separated network stack including the L3 +routing table. Network interfaces on the system can be moved by using +ifconfig(8) +vnet option between the different vimage jails and outside of +them.

    + +

    Furthermore, the +epair(4) +pseudo-interface driver has been added to help communication between vimage jails. It +emulates a pair of back-to-back connected Ethernet interfaces. For example, following +commands create the interface pair:

    + +
    +# ifconfig epair0 create
    +epair0a
    +# ifconfig epair0a
    +epair0a: flags=8842<BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
    +    ether 02:c0:64:00:07:0a
    +# ifconfig epair0b
    +epair0b: flags=8842<BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
    +    ether 02:c0:64:00:08:0b
    +
    + +

    The +epair(4) +pseudo-interfaces and any physical interfaces on the system can be moved between vimage +jails by using +ifconfig(8) +vnet option. Even after one of an +epair(4) pair is +moved, the back-to-back connection still valid and can be used for inter-jail +communication.

    + +

    Note that the vimage is still considered as an experimental feature.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    A jail can have arbitrary named parameters similar to environmental variables and the +fixed jail parameters in the previous releases have been replaced with them. The jail +name can be used for identifying the jail in +jexec(8) and +killall(1).

    +
  • + +
  • +

    Multiple addresses of both IPv4 and IPv6 per jail has been supported. It is even +possible to have jails without an IP address at all, which basically gives one a chrooted +environment with restricted process view and no networking.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    SCTP ( +sctp(4)) with +IPv6 in jails has been implemented.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    Specific CPU binding by using +cpuset(1) has +been implemented. Note that the current implementation allows the superuser inside of the +jail to change the CPU bindings specified.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    A +jail(8) can +start with a specific route FIB now.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    A show jails subcommand in +ddb(8) has been +added.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    Compatibility support which permits 32-bit jail binaries to be used on 64-bit systems +to manage jails has been added.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    Note that both version numbers of jail and prison in the +jail(8) have +been updated for the new features.

    +
  • +
+ +

The +ksyms(4), kernel +symbol table interface driver has been added. It creates a character device /dev/ksyms and provides read-only access to a snapshot of the +kernel symbol table.

+ +

[amd64, i386] The FreeBSD Linux emulation layer has been updated to version 2.6.16 and +the default Linux infrastructure port is emulators/linux_base-f10 (Fedora 10).

+ +

[7.2R] The +ddb(8) kernel +debugger now supports a show mount subcommand.

+ +

[7.2R] The FreeBSD DTrace subsystem now supports a probe for process execution.

+ +

[7.2R] [amd64] The FreeBSD kernel virtual address space has been increased to 6GB. +This allows subsystems to use larger virtual memory space than before. For example, +zfs(8) adaptive +replacement cache (ARC) requires large kernel memory space to cache file system data, so +it benefits from the increased address space. Note that the ceiling on the kernel map +size is now 60% of the size rather than an absolute quantity.

+ +

[7.2R] The +kld(4) now +supports installing 32-bit system calls to the FreeBSD syscall translation layer from +kernel modules.

+ +

[7.2R] The +ktr(4) now +supports a new KTR tracepoint in the KTR_CALLOUT class to note +when a callout routine finishes executing.

+ +

[7.2R] Types of variables used to track the amount of allocated System V shared memory +have been changed from int to size_t. +This makes it possible to use more than 2 GB of memory for shared memory segments on +64-bit architectures. Please note the new BUGS section in +shmctl(2) and +/usr/src/UPDATING for limitations of this temporary +solution.

+ +

[7.2R] The +sysctl(3) leaf +nodes have a flag to tag themselves as MPSAFE now.

+ +

[7.2R] The FreeBSD 32-bit system call translation layer now supports installing 32-bit +system calls for VFS_AIO.

+ +

[7.2R] [amd64, i386] The FreeBSD virtual memory subsystem now supports fully +transparent use of superpages for application memory; +application memory pages are dynamically promoted to or demoted from superpages without +any modification to application code. This change offers the benefit of large page sizes +such as improved virtual memory efficiency and reduced TLB (translation lookaside buffer) +misses without downsides like application changes and virtual memory inflexibility. This +is disabled by default and can be enabled by setting a loader tunable vm.pmap.pg_ps_enabled to 1.

+ +

[7.1R] The +clock_gettime(2) +and the related system calls now support a clock ID CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID, defined in POSIX.

+ +

[7.1R] The +cpuset(2) system +call has been added. This is an API for thread to CPU binding and CPU resource grouping +and assignment.

+ +

[7.1R] The DTrace, a comprehensive dynamic tracing framework and +dtrace(1) +userland utility have been imported from OpenSolaris. DTrace provides a powerful +infrastructure to permit administrators, developers, and service personnel to concisely +answer arbitrary questions about the behavior of the operating system and user +programs.

+ +

[7.1R] The +ddb(4) kernel +debugger now has an output capture facility. Input and output from +ddb(4) can now +be captured to a memory buffer for later inspection using +sysctl(8) or a +textdump. The new capture command controls this feature.

+ +

[7.1R] The +ddb(4) debugger +now supports a simple scripting facility, which supports a set of named scripts +consisting of a set of +ddb(4) commands. +These commands can be managed from within +ddb(4) or with +the use of the new +ddb(8) utility. +More details can be found in the +ddb(4) manual +page.

+ +

[7.1R] The +ddb(4) ex command now supports an /S mode which +interprets and prints the value at the requested address as a symbol. For example, ex /S aio_swake prints the +name of the function currently registered in via aio_swake hook.

+ +

[7.1R] The +ddb(4) show conifhk command has been added. This lists hooks currently +waiting for completion in run_interrupt_driven_config_hooks().

+ +

[7.1R] The +fcntl(2) system +call now supports F_DUP2FD command. This is equivalent to +dup(2), and +compatible with Sun Solaris and IBM AIX.

+ +

[7.1R] The FreeBSD's +linux(4) ABI +support now implements sched_setaffinity() and sched_getaffinity() using real CPU affinity setting +primitives.

+ +

[7.1R] The +procstat(1) +utility has been added. This is a process inspection utility which provides both some of +the missing functionality from +procfs(5) and +new functionality for monitoring and debugging specific processes.

+ +

[7.1R] The client side functionality of +rpc.lockd(8) has +been implemented in FreeBSD kernel. This implementation provides the correct semantics +for +flock(2) style +locks which are used by the +lockf(1) command +line tool and the +pidfile(3) +library. It also implements recovery from server restarts and ensures that dirty cache +blocks are written to the server before obtaining locks (allowing multiple clients to use +file locking to safely share data). Also, a new kernel option options +NFSLOCKD has been added and enabled by default. If the kernel support is enabled, +rpc.lockd(8) +automatically detects and uses the functionality.

+ +

[7.1R] The FreeBSD kernel now supports a new textdump format of kernel dumps. A +textdump provides higher-level information via mechanically generated/extracted debugging +output, rather than a simple memory dump. This facility can be used to generate brief +kernel bug reports that are rich in debugging information, but are not dependent on +kernel symbol tables or precisely synchronized source code. More information can be found +in the +textdump(4) +manual page.

+ +

[7.1R] The +wait4(2) system +call now supports WNOWAIT flag to keep the process whose +status is returned in a waitable state and WSTOPPED which is +equivalent to WUNTRACED.

+ +

[7.1R] [amd64, i386, sparc64] The FreeBSD kernel now supports initial support of +binding interrupts to CPUs.

+ +

[7.1R] [amd64, i386] The +sched_ule(4) +scheduler is now the default process scheduler in GENERIC +kernels.

+ +

[7.1R] The sysctl variables kern.features.compat_freebsd[456] have been added. These are +corresponding to the kernel options COMPAT_FREEBSD[456].

+ +
+
+

2.2.1 Boot Loader Changes

+ +

The boot0 boot loader now preserves volume ID at offset +0x1b8 used in other operating systems

+ +

The +boot0cfg(8) +utility now supports a new -i option to set the volume +ID.

+ +

[7.2R] The +boot(8) now +supports 4-byte volume ID that certain versions of Windows® put into the MBR and invoking PXE by pressing F6 +key on some supported BIOSes.

+ +

[7.2R] [i386] The +boot(8) BTX +loader has been improved. This fixes several boot issues on recent machines reported for +7.1-RELEASE and before.

+ +

[7.2R] The +loader(8) is now +able to obtain DHCP options from network boot via +kenv(2) +variables.

+ +

[7.2R] A bug in the +loader(8) has +been fixed. Now the following line works as expected:

+ +
+loader_conf_files="foo bar ${variable}"
+
+ +

[7.1R] [amd64, i386] The BTX kernel used by the boot loader has been changed to invoke +BIOS routines from real mode. This change makes it possible to boot FreeBSD from USB +devices.

+ +

[7.1R] [amd64, i386] A new gptboot boot loader has been added to support booting from +a GPT labeled disk. A new boot command has been added to +gpt(8), which +makes a GPT disk bootable by writing the required bits of the boot loader, creating a new +boot partition if required.

+
+ +
+
+

2.2.2 Hardware Support

+ +

The FreeBSD now includes an experimental support for MIPS platform.

+ +

The +acpi(4) +subsystem now supports System Resource Affinity Table (SRAT) used to describe affinity +relationships between CPUs and memory, ACPI 3.0 fields in the MADT including X2APIC +entries and UIDs for local SAPICs, and ACPI 3.0 flags in the FADT.

+ +

[powerpc] The +cpufreq(4) now +supports PowerPC G5, along with a skeleton SMU driver in order to slew CPU voltage during +frequency changes.

+ +

The sec(4) driver has been added to provide support for the integrated security engine +found in Freescale system-on-chip devices.

+ +

The FreeBSD TTY layer has been replaced with a new one which has better support for +SMP and robust resource handling. A tty now has own mutex and it is expected to improve +scalability when compared to the old implementation based on Giant lock.

+ +

[amd64, i386] The +uart(4) is now +the default driver for serial port devices in favor of the +sio(4) driver. +Note that the device nodes have been renamed with /dev/cuauN and /dev/ttyuN.

+ +

The FreeBSD USB subsystem has been reimplemented to support modern devices and better +SMP scalability. The new implementation includes Giant-lock-free device drivers, Linux +compatibility layer, +usbconfig(8) +utility, full support for split transaction and isochronous transaction, and so on. +Device node names for USB devices are now in a the form of /dev/usb/bus.dev.iface.endpoint, and /dev/usbctl +is the master device node. The name /dev/ugen0.1 in the +previous releases has been renamed as /dev/ugen/0.1.0.0, for +example.

+ +

[7.2R] [sparc64] The FreeBSD now supports Ultra SPARC III (Cheetah) processor +family.

+ +

[7.2R] The +acpi(4) +subsystem now supports a +sysctl(8) +variable debug.batt.batt_sleep_ms. On some laptops with +smart batteries, enabling battery monitoring software causes keystrokes from +atkbd(4) to be +lost. This sysctl variable adds a delay in millisecond to the status checking code as a +workaround.

+ +

[7.2R] The +acpi_asus(4) +driver now supports Asus A8Sr notebooks.

+ +

[7.2R] [powerpc] Support for the AltiVec, a floating point and integer SIMD +instruction set has been added.

+ +

[7.2R] The +cpuctl(4) +driver, which provides a special device /dev/cpuctl as an +interface to the system CPU has been added. The +cpuctl(4) +functionality includes the ability to retrieve CPUID information, read/write machine +specific registers (MSR), and perform CPU firmware updates.

+ +

[7.2R] The +cpufreq(4) +driver now supports an hw.est.msr_info loader tunable. When +this is set to 1, it attempts to build a simple list containing +just the high and low frequencies if it cannot obtain a frequency list from either ACPI +or the static tables. This is disabled by default.

+ +

[7.2R] [amd64, i386] CPU frequency change notifiers are now disabled when the TSC is +P-state invariant. Also, a new loader tunable kern.timecounter.invariant_tsc has been added to force this +behavior by setting it to non-zero.

+ +

[7.2R] The +atkbd(4) driver +now disables the interrupt handler which is called from the keyboard callback function +when polled mode is enabled. This fixes the problem of duplicated/missing characters at +the mountroot prompt on multi CPU systems while +kbdmux(4) is +enabled.

+ +

[7.2R] In the +pci(4) subsystem +INTx is now disabled when MSI/MSIX is enabled. This change fixes interrupt storm related +issues.

+ +

[7.2R] [sparc64] The schizo(4) driver for Schizo Fireplane/Safari to PCI 2.1 and +Tomatillo JBus to PCI 2.2 bridges has been added.

+ +

[7.2R] The +u3g(4) driver +for USB based 3G cards and dongles including Vodafone Mobile Connect Card 3G, Qualcomm +CDMA MSM, Huawei E220, Novatel U740, Sierra MC875U, and so on has been added. This +provides support for the multiple USB-to-serial interfaces exposed by many 3G USB/PC Card +modems, and the device is accessed through the +ucom(4) driver +which makes it behave like a +tty(4).

+ +

[7.2R] The +sched_ule(4) +scheduler now supports a loader tunable machdep.hyperthreading_enabled as the +sched_4bsd(4) +does. Note that it cannot be modified at run-time.

+ +

[7.1R] The +cmx(4) driver, a +driver for Omnikey CardMan 4040 PCMCIA smartcard readers, has been added.

+ +

[7.1R] [sparc64] The +kbdmux(4) driver +has been added. The +sunkbd(4) now +supports +atkbd(4) +emulation like +ukbd(4).

+ +

[7.1R] The nvram(4) driver is now MPSAFE.

+ +

[7.1R] An option of the +puc(4) driver +PUC_FASTINTR has been no longer supported.

+ +

[7.1R] The +psm(4) driver +now attempts detection of Synaptics touchpad before IntelliMouse. Some touchpads will +pretend to be IntelliMouse causing the IntelliMouse probe to work and the Synaptics +detection never to be done.

+ +

[7.1R] The +uslcom(4) +driver, a driver for Silicon Laboratories CP2101/CP2102-based USB serial adapters, has +been imported from OpenBSD.

+ +
+
+
2.2.2.1 Multimedia Support
+ +

The FreeBSD audio subsystem has been improved. The changes include volume per channel, +high quality fixed-point band-limited SINC sampling rate converter, bit-perfect mode, +transparent/adaptive virtual channel, and exclusive stream. For more details, see +snd(4) manual +page.

+ +

[7.2R] The +agp(4) driver +now supports Intel G4X series graphics chipsets.

+ +

[7.2R] The DRM, a kernel module named Direct Rendering Manager that gives direct +hardware access to DRI clients, has been updated. Support for AMD/ATI r500, r600, r700, +and IGP based chips, XGI V3XE/V5/V8, and Intel i915 chipsets has been improved.

+ +

[7.2R] A new loader tunable hw.drm.msi has been added to +control if DRM uses MSI or not. This is set to 1 (enabled) by +default.

+ +

[7.2R] The snd_au88x0(4) driver for Aureal Vortex 1/2/Advantage PCI has been removed +because this was broken for a long time.

+ +

[7.2R] The +snd_hda(4) +driver has been updated. This changes include support for multiple codec per HDA bus, +multiple functional groups per codec, multiple audio devices per functional group, +digital (SPDIF/HDMI) audio input/output, suspend/resume, and part of multichannel +audio.

+ +

[7.2R] Note that due to added HDMI audio and logical audio devices support, the +updated driver often provides several PCM devices. This means that in some cases the +system default audio device no longer corresponds to the users's habitual audio +connectors. In such cases the default device can be specified in audio applications' +setup or defined globally via hw.snd.default_unit sysctl, as +described in the +sound(4) manual +page.

+ +

[7.1R] The +agp(4) driver +now supports Intel G33 and G45.

+ +

[7.1R] [i386] The dpms(4) driver has been added to use the +VESA BIOS for DPMS during suspend and resume.

+ +

[7.1R] The DRM kernel driver now supports i915 GME +devices.

+
+ +
+
+

  • +

    [7.2R] WoL (Wake on LAN) support for 82550, 82551, 82558, and 82559-based controllers +has been added. Note that ICH based controllers are treated as 82559, and 82557, earlier +revisions of 82558, and 82559ER have no WoL capability.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    [7.2R] VLAN hardware tag insertion/stripping support and Tx/Rx checksum offload for +VLAN frames support have been added. Note that the VLAN hardware assistance is available +only on 82550 or 82551-based controllers.

+ +

[7.2R] The +nfe(4) driver +now supports hardware MAC statistics.

+ +

[7.2R] The re(4) driver has been +improved. It now detects the link status. A new loader tunable hw.re.prefer_iomap has been added, to disable memory register +mapping. This tunable is 0 for all controllers except RTL8169SC +family.

+ +

[7.2R] The rl(4) driver has been +improved. It now detects the link status and a bug which prevents it from working on +systems with more than 4GB memory has been fixed.

+ +

[7.2R] A bug in +sis(4) on VLAN +tagged frame handling has been fixed.

+ +

[7.2R] The +txp(4) driver +now works on all supported architectures. Support has been added for +altq(4), WoL, +checksum offload when VLAN enabled, and link state change handling has been improved, and +new sysctl variables dev.txp.N.stats for MAC statistics have been added. New +sysctl variables dev.txp.N.process_limit has been added, to control how +many received frames should be served in Rx handler (set to 64 by default and valid +ranges are 16 to 128 in unit of frames). The firmware has been updated to the latest +version.

+ +

[7.1R] The ae(4) driver has been +added to provide support for the Attansic/Atheros L2 FastEthernet controllers.

+ +

[7.1R] The +jme(4) driver +has been added to provide support for PCIe adapters based on JMicron JMC250 gigabit +Ethernet and JMC260 fast Ethernet controllers.

+ +

[7.1R] The +malo(4) driver +has been added to provide support for Marvell Libertas 88W8335 based PCI network +adapters.

+ +

[7.1R] The bm(4) driver has been added to provide support for Apple Big Mac (BMAC) +Ethernet controller, found on various Apple G3 models.

+ +

[7.1R] The et(4) driver has been added to provide support for Agere ET1310 +10/100/Gigabit Ethernet controller.

+ +

[7.1R] The +glxsb(4) driver +has been added to provide support for the Security Block in AMD Geode LX processors.

+ +

[7.1R] The +ale(4) driver +has been added to provide support for Atheros AR8121/AR8113/AR8114 Gigabit/Fast Ethernet +controllers. This driver is not enabled in GENERIC kernels for +this release.

+ +

[7.1R] The em(4) driver has been +split into two drivers with some common parts. The em(4) driver will +continue to support adapters up to the 82575, as well as new client/desktop adapters. A +new +igb(4) driver +will support new server adapters.

+ +

[7.1R] The +hme(4) driver +has been improved.

+ +

[7.1R] The +ixgbe(4) driver +has been updated to version 1.6.2 from Intel.

+ +

[7.1R] A bug in some of the +miibus(4) +supported drivers that IEEE 802.3 auto-negotiation was performed in a wrong order, has +been fixed. Now it chooses the correct technologies supported by IEEE 802.3 in the order +described in Annex 28B.3.

+ +

[7.1R] A workaround has been added for a bug in TCP/UDP hardware checksum offload of +the +msk(4) driver +for short frames. Note that for frames that requires hardware VLAN tag insertion, the +checksum offload workaround does not work due to changes of checksum offset in mbuf after +the VLAN tag. So disabling hardware checksum offload for the VLAN interface is needed in +such cases.

+ +

[7.1R] The +ndis(4) NDIS +miniport driver wrapper has been improved.

+ +

+
+
+ +
+
+

2.2.3 Network Protocols

+ +

The FreeBSD netisr framework has been reimplemented for parallel threading support. +This is a kernel network dispatch interface which allows device drivers (and other packet +sources) to direct packets to protocols for directly dispatched or deferred processing. +The new implementation supports up to one netisr thread per CPU, and several benchmarks +on SMP machines show substantial performance improvement over the old one.

+ +

A bug in the +gif(4) that +EtherIP packets sent by combination of +if_bridge(4) and + +gif(4) have a +reversed version field has been fixed. If you need to communicate with older FreeBSD +releases via EtherIP, use new flags accept_rev_ethip_ver and send_rev_ethip_ver to control handling the reversed version field. +These can be set by +ifconfig(8) +utility to +gif(4) +interfaces. The EtherIP implementation found on FreeBSD 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 7.0, 7.1, and 7.2 +had an interoperability issue because it sent the incorrect EtherIP packets and discarded +the correct ones. For more details, see +gif(4) manual +page.

+ +

The IGMPv3 and SSM (Source-Specific Multicast) including IPv6 SSM and MLDv2 have been +added. Although the old KAME MLDv2 hooks has been replaced with the new implementation, +the related kernel programming interface is preserved.

+ +

The multicast routing code has been improved and the IPv4 and IPv6 support has been +split.

+ +

The FreeBSD now supports the upcoming Wireless Mesh standard, IEEE 802.11s. The +current implementation is based on the March 2009 D3.0 draft version.

+ +

The wireless network support layer (net80211) now uses pseudo-interfaces named as wlanN instead of a device driver +name like em0 directly. The wlanN interface is created by +ifconfig(8) as +an instance of the parent interface and used for actual communication similar to +vlan(4), IEEE +802.1Q VLAN network interface. Note that multiple instances (to realize multiple BSSes +with a single AP device, for example) can be created if the parent interface supports it. +For more details, see +ifconfig(8) +manual page.

+ +

The net80211 layer now supports TDMA for long distance point-to-point links using +ath(4) +devices.

+ +

An infrastructure for caching flows as a means of accelerating L2 and L3 lookups has +been added. This is called “flow table” and enabled by default on amd64 and +i386 platforms. This also provides stateful load balancing when used with RADIX_MPATH

+ +

The FreeBSD L2 address translation table has been reimplemented to reduce lock +contention on parallel processing and simplify the routing logic. The new implementation +has L2 address translation tables for both ARP (for IPv4) and NDP (for IPv6) which are +separated from the L3 routing tables, and supports flow table caches for both the routing +table and the L2 information. One of the user-visible changes is that a concept of cloned +route (a route generated by an entry with RTF_CLONING flag) is +deprecated. This means routing flags RTF_CLONING, RTF_WASCLONE, and RTF_LLINFO are +obsolete.

+ +

The +ipsec(4) +subsystem now supports NAT-Traversal (RFC 3948). This is disabled by default. To enable +this add the following kernel option and rebuild the kernel:

+ +
+device crypto
+options IPSEC
+options IPSEC_NAT_T
+
+ +

[7.2R] IPv4 source address selection for unbound sockets has been implemented as +follows:

+ +
    +
  1. +

    If we found a route, use the address corresponding to the outgoing interface.

    +
  2. + +
  3. +

    [7.2R] Otherwise we assume the foreign address is reachable on a directly connected +network and try to find a corresponding interface to take the source address from.

    +
  4. + +
  5. +

    [7.2R] As a last resort use the default jail address.

    +
  6. +
+ +

[7.2R] This also changes the semantics of selecting the IP for processes within a +jail(8) as it +now uses the same logic as outside the +jail(8).

+ +

[7.2R] The TCP MD5 Signature Option (RFC 2385) for IPv6 has been implemented in the +same way it has been implemented for IPv4.

+ +

[7.2R] The +ng_netflow(4) +Netgraph node now includes support for generating egress netflow instead or in addition +to ingress. An NGM_NETFLOW_SETCONFIG control message has been +added to control the new functionality.

+ +

[7.2R] The +tap(4) Ethernet +tunnel software network interface now supports a new TAPGIFNAME +character device ioctl. This is a convenient shortcut to obtain the network interface +name using a file descriptor to a character device.

+ +

[7.2R] The +tap(4) now +supports SIOCSIFMTU ioctl to set a higher MTU than 1500 +(ETHERMTU). This allows +tap(4) devices +to be added to the same bridge (which requires all interface members to have the same +MTU) with an interface configured for jumbo frames.

+ +

[7.2R] The domains list for handling the list of supported domains in the +unix(4) (UNIX +domain protocol family) subsystem is now MPSAFE.

+ +

[7.1R] The +arp(8) utility +now supports reject and blackhole +keywords. In the entry marked as reject, traffic to the host +will be discarded and the sender will be notified the host is unreachable. In the entry +marked as blackhole, traffic is discarded but the sender is not +notified.

+ +

[7.1R] The +bpf(4) now +supports an ioctl BIOCSETFNR. This is just like BIOCSETF but it does not drop all the packets buffered on the +descriptor and reset the statistics.

+ +

[7.1R] The +if_bridge(4) now +allow to limit the number of source MACs that can be behind a bridge interface via ifmaxaddr parameter of +ifconfig(8).

+ +

[7.1R] A bug in the +carp(4) +interface configuration which leads to a system panic has been fixed.

+ +

[7.1R] The +dummynet(4) +subsystem now supports fast mode operation which allows certain +packets to bypass the dummynet scheduler. This can achieve lower latency and lower +overhead when the packet flow is under the pipe bandwidth, and eliminate recursion in the +subsystem. The new sysctl variable net.inet.ip.dummynet.io_fast has been added to enable this +feature.

+ +

[7.1R] The +enc(4) now +supports sysctl variables to control whether the firewalls or +bpf(4) will see +inner and outer headers or just inner or outer headers for incoming and outgoing IPsec +packets.

+ +

[7.1R] The +gre(4) now +supports ioctls GRESKEY and GREGKEY +which allows set or get GRE key used for outgoing packets.

+ +

[7.1R] A bug in the +ipsec(4) +subsystem that PMTU was broken in those cases when there was a route with a lower MTU +than the MTU of the outgoing interface, has been fixed.

+ +

[7.1R] The netatm subsystem has been removed due to lacking of multiprocessor +support.

+ +

[7.1R] The +ng_nat(4) now +supports redirect functionality in libalias. For more details, +see the manual page.

+ +

[7.1R] The +ng_pptpgre(4) +now supports multiple hooks like +ng_l2tp(4), to +use one pair of pptpgre and ksocket nodes for all calls between two peers.

+ +

[7.1R] The +resolver(3) now +allows underscore in domain names. Although this is a violation of RFC 1034 [STD 13], it +is accepted by certain name servers as well as other popular operating systems' resolver +library.

+ +

[7.1R] A socket option TCP_CONGESTION for TCP socket has been +added. This is for setting and retrieving the congestion control algorithm. The name used +is to allow compatibility with Linux.

+ +

[7.1R] The +rwlock(9) has +been used throughout the inpcbinfo and inpcb infrastructure, and protocols that depend on that +infrastructure, including UDP, TCP, and IP raw sockets to reduce the lock +contentions.

+ +

[7.1R] The FreeBSD now supports multiple routing tables. To enable this, the following +steps are needed:

+ +
    +
  • +

    Add the following kernel configuration option and rebuild the kernel. The 2 is the number of FIB (Forward Information Base, synonym for a +routing table here). The maximum value is 16.

    + +
    +options    ROUTETABLES=2
    +
    + +

    The procedure for rebuilding the FreeBSD kernel is described in the FreeBSD Handbook.

    + +

    This number can be modified on boot time. To do so, add the following to /boot/loader.conf and reboot the system:

    + +
    +net.fibs=6
    +
    +
  • + +
  • +

    Set a loader tunable net.my_fibnum if needed. This means +the default number of routing tables. If not specified, 0 will +be used.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    Set a loader tunable net.add_addr_allfibs if needed. This +enables to add routes to all FIBs for new interfaces by default. When this is set to 0, it will only allocate routes on interface changes for the FIB of +the caller when adding a new set of addresses to an interface. Note that this tunable is +set to 1 by default.

    +
  • +
+ +

To select one of the FIBs, the new +setfib(1) +utility can be used. This set an associated FIB with the process. For example:

+ +
+# setfib -3 ping target.example.com
+
+ +

The FIB #3 will be used for the +ping(8) +command.

+ +

The FIB which the packet will be associated with will be determined in the following +rules:

+ +
    +
  • +

    All packets which have a FIB associated with them will use the FIB. If not, FIB #0 +will be used.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    A packet received on an interface for forwarding uses FIB #0.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    A TCP listen socket associated with an FIB will generate accept sockets which are +associated with the same FIB.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    A packet generated in response to other packet uses the FIB associated with the packet +being responded to.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    A packet generated on tunnel interfaces such as +gif(4) and +tun(4) will be +encapsulated using the FIB of the process which set up the tunnel.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    Routing messages will be associated with the process's FIB.

    +
  • +
+ +

Also, the +ipfw(8) now +supports an action rule setfib. The following action:

+ +
+setfib fibnum
+
+ +

will make the matched packet use the FIB specified in fibnum. The rule processing continues at the next +rule.

+
+ +
+
+

2.2.4 Disks and Storage

+ +

The FreeBSD CAM SCSI subsystem ( +cam(4)) now +includes experimental support for ATA/SATA/AHCI-compliant devices. This is disabled by +default. To enable this, adding the following kernel options to your kernel configuration +file and rebuild the kernel:

+ +
+device ahci
+device  siis
+
+ +

The current implementation supports AHCI-compliant controllers and SiliconImage +SiI3124/SiI3132/SiI3531 controllers. The device node of an ATA drive is ada and one of an ATAPI drive is cd.

+ +

The FreeBSD iSCSI initiator implementation has been improved and supports IPv6.

+ +

A userland utility +mftutil(8) for +the +mfi(4) devices +has been added. This includes basic features to monitor controller, array, and drive +status, change basic attributes, create/delete arrays and spares, and flush the +controller firmware. Note that this is a small utility, not a replacement of MegaCLI in +the Ports Collection which is supported officially and provides more functionality.

+ +

A userland utility +mptutil(8) for +the +mpi(4) devices +has been added. This includes basic features to monitor controller, array, and drive +status, change basic attributes, and create/delete arrays and spares.

+ +

The +siis(4) driver +has been added to provide support for SiliconImage SiI3124/3132/3531 SATA2 controllers. +It supports Serial ATA and ATAPI devices, port multipliers (including FIS-based +switching), hardware command queues (31 command per port) and Native Command Queuing.

+ +

[7.2R] The +ata(4) driver +now supports Marvell PATA M88SX6121.

+ +

[7.2R] The +ata(4) driver +now recognizes nForce MCP67 and MCP73 SATA controllers as AHCI.

+ +

[7.2R] The +ataraid(4) +driver now includes preliminary support for DDF metadata found on Adaptec HostRAID +controllers. Note that spares and rebuilds are not supported yet.

+ +

[7.2R] The +cam(4) SCSI +subsystem now supports a new sysctl variable kern.cam.cd.retry_count. This controls the number of retries for +the CD media. When trying to read scratched or damaged CDs and DVDs, the default +mechanism is sub-optimal, and programs like ddrescue do much +better if you turn off the retries entirely since their algorithms do it by themselves. +This value is set to 4 (for a total of 5 attempts) by default. +Setting it to 0 turns off all retry attempts.

+ +

[7.2R] A bug in the +ciss(4) driver +which caused low “max device openings” count and led to poor performance has +been fixed.

+ +

[7.2R] The +glabel(8) GEOM +class now supports a new UFS-based label called ufsid that can +be used to reference UFS-carrying devices by the unique file system ID. This file system +ID is automatically generated and detected when the +glabel(8) GEOM +class is enabled. An example of this new label is: /dev/ufsid/48e69c8b5c8e1b43. The benefit of using GEOM labels in +general is to avoid problems of device renaming when shifting drives or controllers.

+ +

[7.2R] The +gjournal(8) GEOM +class now supports the root file system. Previously, an unclean shutdown would make it +impossible to mount the root file system at boot.

+ +

[7.2R] The +gpart(8) utility +has been updated. The APM scheme now supports Tivo Series 1 partitions (read only), a new +EBR scheme to support Extended Boot Records has been added, the BSD scheme now support +bootcode, and bugs in the PC98 and VTOC8 schemes have been fixed.

+ +

[7.2R] An issue in +gvinum(8) with +access permissions to underlying disks used by a gvinum plex has been fixed. If the plex +is a raid5 plex and is being written to, parity data might have to be read from the +underlying disks, requiring them to be opened for reading as well as writing.

+ +

[7.2R] The +hptmv(4) driver +has been updated to version 1.16 from the vendor.

+ +

[7.2R] The +mmc(4) and +mmcsd(4) drivers +now support MMC and SDHC cards, high speed timing, wide bus, and multiblock +transfers.

+ +

[7.2R] [sparc64] The +mpt(4) driver is +now in the GENERIC kernel.

+ +

[7.2R] The +sdhci(4) driver +has been added. This supports PCI devices with class 8 and subclass 5 according to the SD +Host Controller Specification.

+ +

[7.2R] The +sdhci(4) driver +now supports kernel dumping and a sysctl variable hw.sdhci.debug for debug level.

+ +

[7.2R] The +twa(4) driver +now supports 64-bit DMA.

+ +

[7.2R] The +mmc(4) +mmcsd(4), and +sdhci(4) driver +are now included as kernel modules.

+ +

[7.1R] The +aac(4) driver +now supports 64-bit array support for RAIDs larger than 2TB and simultaneous opens of the +device for issuing commands to the controller.

+ +

[7.1R] The +ata(4) driver +now supports a loader variable hw.ata.ata_dma_check_80pin. +This can be used to disable the 80pin cable check on broken systems such as certain +laptops and Soekris boards. The default value is 1.

+ +

[7.1R] A data corruption problem of the +ata(4) driver on +ServerWorks HT1000 chipsets has been fixed.

+ +

[7.1R] The +ciss(4) driver +now supports a loader tunable hw.ciss.nop_message_heartbeat +for NOP-message polling in ciss_periodic(). This can be +used as a workaround for ADAPTER HEARTBEAT FAILED issue. The +default value is 0 (disabled).

+ +

[7.1R] The geom_part GEOM class can be built as a kernel +module.

+ +

[7.1R] The geom_linux_lvm GEOM class can be built as a +kernel module.

+ +

[7.1R] The +hptrr(4) driver +has been updated to version 1.2 from Highpoint.

+ +

[7.1R] A buffer overflow in the +iir(4) driver +has been fixed. This likely fixes a great number of weird problems that have been +reported with this driver.

+ +

[7.1R] The +mpt(4) driver +now supports mpt_user personality.

+ +

[7.1R] The +rr232x(4) driver +has been superseded by +hptrr(4) +driver.

+ +

[7.1R] The +twa(4) driver +has been improved with regard to stability on machines with a plenty of memory and high +CPU load.

+
+ +
+
+

2.2.5 File Systems

+ +

The +gvinum(8) now +supports commands found in the old vinum implementation including attach, detach, start, stop, concat, mirror, stripe, and raid5.

+ +

The +gvinum(8) now +supports grow command to make it easier for users to extend +plexes without having to understand all of the implementation internals.

+ +

The FreeBSD NFS subsystem now supports RPCSEC_GSS +authentication on both the client and server. This replaces the RPC implementation of the +NFS client and server with the newer RPC implementation originally developed to support +the NFS Lock Manager. It supports both the new RPC implementation and the older legacy +implementation inherited from the original NFS codebase and the default is to use the new +one. To use RPCSEC_GSS on either client or server, you must +build a kernel which includes the KGSSAPI option and the +crypto(4) +device. For more details, see +gssd(8) manual +page.

+ +

The FreeBSD NFS subsystem now includes a new, experimental implementation with support +for NFSv2, NFSv3, and NFSv4. This is not enabled by default. To enable this, add the +following kernel options to your kernel configuration file and rebuild the kernel:

+ +
+options    NFSCL   # for NFS client
+options NFSD    # for NFS server
+
+ +

The fstype for +mount(8) program +is newnfs, and +mount_newnfs(8) +program has also been added. The old, unmaintained NFSv4 client based on an +implementation at University of Michigan was removed from the FreeBSD source tree.

+ +

The FreeBSD NFS subsystem now uses TCP as the default transport.

+ +

The shared vnode locking for pathname lookups in the +VFS(9) subsystem +has been improved. This is enabled by default. Setting a sysctl variable vfs.lookup_shared to 0 disables it. Note +that the LOOKUP_SHARED kernel option equivalent to the sysctl +variable has been removed.

+ +

The ZFS file system has been updated to version 13. The +changes include ZFS operations by a regular user, L2ARC, ZFS Intent Log on separated +disks (slog), sparse volumes, and so on.

+ +

[7.2R] The semantics of +acl(3) extended +access control lists has been changed as follows:

+ +
    +
  • +

    The inode modification time (mtime) is not updated when extended attributes are added, +modified, or removed.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    The inode access time (atime) is not updated when extended attributes are queried.

    +
  • +
+ +

[7.2R] The FreeBSD NFS file system now supports a sysctl variable vfs.nfs.prime_access_cache to determine whether or not nfs_getattr() will use an ACCESS RPC to prime the access cache +instead of a simple GETATTR RPC. This is because on many NFS servers an ACCESS RPC is +much more expensive to service than a GETATTR RPC for files in an NFSv3 mount. The sysctl +variable is enabled by default to maintain the previous behavior.

+ +

2.3 Userland Changes

+ +

The GCC stack protection (also known as ProPolice) has been enabled in the FreeBSD +base system.

+ +

A BSD-licensed ar(1) utility has +been added in favor of one in GNU binutils and it is now the +default utility for building the FreeBSD base system.

+ +

The +awk(1) utility +now supports 64 files. The upper limit was 20 in the prior releases.

+ +

The +bsnmpd(1) +program now supports OIDs for ZFS.

+ +

The +camcontrol(8) +program now supports a new modularized ATA kernel module and various ATA commands.

+ +

The +cat(1) and cp(1) now use a +larger buffer if the number of pages of the physical memory on the system is grater than +32k. This reduces a number of context switches.

+ +

A new BSD-licensed +cpio(1) utility +has been added in favor of GNU cpio and it is now the default +utility in the FreeBSD base system.

+ +

A script for the +crashinfo(8) +utility for simple analysis of crash dump has been added. It generates a text file +containing the output of several commands run against the core dump such as +kgdb(1) (stack +trace), ps(1), +netstat(1), +vmstat(8), +iostat(8), +dmesg(8), and +fstat(1).

+ +

The df(1) utility's -h flag now supports displaying inode counts in a human-readable +format when a flag -i is specified.

+ +

The df(1) utility now +supports a -T flag to display file system type in each +entry.

+ +

A bug in the +dhclient(8) that +can create a malformed /etc/resolv.conf has been fixed.

+ +

The +dhclient(8) now +uses an -n flag when invoking +route(8) +command. This eliminates a long delay in the case that it gets a lease but DNS service is +not working.

+ +

The +dhclient(8) +utility now uses 68 (bootpc) as the source port for unicast DHCPREQUEST packets instead of allowing the protocol stack to pick a +random source port. This fixes the behavior where +dhclient(8) +would never transition from RENEWING to BOUND without going through REBINDING in +some networks which has a tight policy on DHCP spoofing.

+ +

The +env(1) utility +now supports a -u name +option that completely unsets the given name instead of setting it to a null value.

+ +

The +find(1) utility +now supports a number of primaries found in GNU find including +-ignore_readdir_race, -noignore_readdir_race, -noleaf, -gid, -uid, -wholename, -iwholename, -mount, -d, -lname, -ilname, -quit, -samefile, and -true.

+ +

The +fsck(8) utility +now supports a -r flag to free up excess unused inodes. +Decreasing the number of preallocated inodes reduces the running time of future runs of +fsck and frees up space that can allocated to files. This flag is ignored when running in +preen mode.

+ +

The +freebsd-update(8) now supports backing up the old +kernel when installing a new kernel. The backup kernel will be written to /boot/kernel.old if the directory does not exist or the directory +was created by freebsd-update in a previous backup. Otherwise the +freebsd-update(8) will generate a new directory +name for use by the backup. This is enabled by default.

+ +

The +gpt(8) program +has been removed in favor of +gpart(8).

+ +

The +gzip(1) utility +now supports uncompressing files which are created by pack +found in some commercial UNIX-like systems.

+ +

The +i2c(8) utility +for diagnostics of I2C has been added.

+ +

The +ifconfig(8) now +supports vnet and -vnet option to +allow moving interfaces between jails with vimage.

+ +

A BSD-licensed libdwarf library has been added for DTrace +clients.

+ +

The libmsun library now supports acosl(), asinl(), atanl(), atan2l(), cargl(), csqrtl(), fmodl(), hypotl(), and remquol() functions.

+ +

The libproc library has been added for DTrace clients.

+ +

The +mtest(8) utility +now supports IPv6.

+ +

The +mount(8) program +now supports an -o mountprog=filename option to allow an alternative program to +be used for mounting a file system. This is useful for non- +nmount(2) based +file systems such as FUSE.

+ +

The +nfscbd(8), +nfsuserd(8), +nfsdumpstate(8), +and +nfsrevoke(8) +utilities for the new NFSv4 subsystem has been added.

+ +

The +pmcannotate(8) +utility has been added. This prints out sources of a tool (in C or assembly) with inlined +profiling informations retrieved by a prior +pmcstat(8) +analysis.

+ +

The +route(8) utility +now supports show, weights, and sticky commands. For more details, see +route(8) manual +page.

+ +

The +rtld(1) now +supports a new environment variable LD_ELF_HINTS_PATH for +overriding the rtld hints file. This environment variable would be ignored if the process +uses setuid and/or setgid. This feature gives a convenient way to use a custom set of +shared library that is not in the default location.

+ +

The +rtld(1) now +supports the dynamic string token substitution in the rpath and soneeded pathes. The +$ORIGIN, $OSNAME, $OSREL and $PLATFORM tokens are +supported. Enabling the substitution requires DF_ORIGIN flag in +DT_FLAGS or DF_1_ORIGIN if DF_FLAGS_1, that may be set with -z +origin GNU ld flag. This translation is unconditionally +disabled for setuid/setgid processes. The $ORIGIN +translation relies on the AT_EXECPATH auxinfo supplied by the +FreeBSD kernel.

+ +

The +traceroute(8) +and +traceroute6(8) +now support an -a flag to display AS number corresponding to +the lookup IP address on each hop. It will query the number to WHOIS server specified in +-A option. If no -A is specified, +whois.radb.net will be used as the default value.

+ +

The +tzsetup(8) now +supports an -s flag to skip the question about adjusting the +clock to UTC.

+ +

The +wake(8) utility, +a tool to send Wake on LAN frames to hosts on a local Ethernet network has been +added.

+ +

The +ypserv(8) +program now supports shadow.byname and shadow.byuid maps.

+ +

[7.2R] A bug in the +atacontrol(8) +utility, which prevents it from working when /usr is not +mounted or invoked from /rescue, has been fixed.

+ +

[7.2R] The +btpand(8) daemon +from NetBSD has been added. This daemon provides support for Bluetooth Network Access +Point (NAP), Group Ad-hoc Network (GN) and Personal Area Network User (PANU) +profiles.

+ +

[7.2R] The +cpucontrol(8) +utility has been added to control +cpuctl(4) +pseudo-device.

+ +

+ +

[7.2R] The +newfs(8) utility +now supports operations on a regular file.

+ +

[7.2R] The +config(8) +utility now supports multiple makeoption lines.

+ +

[7.2R] The +csup(1) utility +now supports CVSMode to fetch a complete CVS repository. Note that the rsync transfer +mode is currently disabled.

+ +

[7.2R] The +dirname(1) +utility now accepts multiple arguments in the same way that +basename(1) +does.

+ +

[7.2R] The du(1) utility now +supports an -l flag. When specified, the du(1) utility counts +a file with multiple hard links as multiple different files.

+ +

[7.2R] The du(1) utility now +supports an -A flag to display the apparent size instead of +the disk usage. This can be helpful when operating on compressed volumes or sparse +files.

+ +

[7.2R] The du(1) utility now +supports a -B blocksize +option to calculate block counts in blocks of blocksize bytes. This is different from the -k or -m options or setting BLOCKSIZE and gives an estimate of how much space the examined +file hierarchy would require on a file system with the given blocksize. Unless in -A mode, +blocksize is rounded up to the next multiple of +512.

+ +

[7.2R] The +dumpfs(8) +utility now supports an -f flag, which causes it to list all +free fragments in the file system by fragment (block) number. This new mode does the +necessary arithmetic to generate absolute fragment numbers rather than the cg-relative +numbers printed in the default mode.

+ +

[7.2R] If -f is passed once, contiguous fragment ranges +are collapsed into an X-Y format as free block lists are currently printed in regular +dumpfs output. If specified twice, all block numbers are printed individually, allowing +both compact and more script-friendly representation.

+ +

[7.2R] The +fetch(1) utility +now supports an -i flag which supports the If-Modified-Since +HTTP 1.1 request. If specified it will cause the file to be downloaded only if it is more +recent than the mtime of the local file. Also, libfetch now +accepts the mtime in the url structure and a flag to indicate when this behavior is +desired.

+ +

[7.2R] The +fsck(8) utility +now supports a -C flag for check +clean mode. This checks if the file system was dismounted cleanly first and then +skip file system checks if true. Otherwise it does full checks.

+ +

[7.2R] The +fsck(8) utility +now supports a -D flag for damaged recovery mode, which will +enable certain aggressive operations that can make +fsck(8) to +survive with file systems that has very serious data damage. This is a useful last resort +when on disk data damage is very serious and causes +fsck(8) to +crash.

+ +

[7.2R] The +getaddrinfo(3) +function now supports SCTP.

+ +

[7.2R] A bug was fixed in the +ipfw(8) utility +which displays extra messages for a NAT rule even when a -q +flag is specified.

+ +

[7.2R] The ln(1) utility now +supports a -w flag to check if the source file actually +exists. When the flag is specified and the file does not exist, ln(1) will issue a +warning message.

+ +

The ln(1) utility now +allows creating hard links to symbolic links because the POSIX.1-2008 requires this +behavior for -L and -P flag.

+ +

The +lpr(1) utility +now support an -m flag to send an email after the job is +completed and a -t option to set the job title.

+ +

[7.2R] The +make(1) utility +now supports a -p flag to print the input graph only, without +executing any commands. The output is the same as -d g1. When +combined with -f /dev/null, only the built-in rules of make +are displayed.

+ +

[7.2R] The +make(1) utility +now supports a -Q flag to cause file banners not to be +generated in addition to the same effect of a -q flag when a +-j option is specified.

+ +

[7.2R] The +make(1) utility +now supports the .MAKE.JOB.PREFIX variable. If -j and -v are specified, its output for +each target is prefixed with a token --- target --- the first part of which can be controlled +via the variable.

+ +

[7.2R] The +make(1) utility +now supports .MAKE.PID and .MAKE.PPID variable. These are set to process ID of the +make(1) process +and its parent process respectively.

+ +

[7.2R] The +makefs(8) +utility to create a file system image from a directory tree has been added.

+ +

[7.2R] The +mergemaster(8) +utility now supports an -F option to automatically install +files that differ only in their version control ID strings.

+ +

[7.2R] The +mount(8) utility +now supports an -o mountprog=/somewhere/mount_xxx option to force it to use the +specified program to mount the file system instead of calling +nmount(2) +directly. This is useful when you want to use third party programs such as FUSE, for +example.

+ +

[7.2R] The +netstat(1) +utility now reports +unix(4) sockets' +listen queue statistics when an -L flag is specified.

+ +

[7.2R] A bug in the +netstat(1) +utility has been fixed. It crashed with the following options in the previous +versions:

+ +
+% netstat -m -N foo
+
+ +

[7.2R] A bug in the +netstat(1) +utility has been fixed. The -ss option now works in the icmp6 +section as expected.

+ +

[7.2R] The +pciconf(8) +utility now supports a -b flag, which lists any base address +registers (BAR) that are assigned resources for each device.

+ +

[7.2R] The +powerd(8) +program has been improved. Changes include reasonable CPU load estimation on SMP systems +and a new mode named as hiadaptive for AC-powered systems. The +hiadaptive mode raises the CPU frequency twice as fast as adaptive, it drops the CPU frequency 4 times slower, prefers twice +lower CPU load and has an additional delay before leaving the highest frequency after the +period of maximum load.

+ +

The +revoke(1) +utility has been added. This is a wrapper of +revoke(2) +syscall.

+ +

[7.2R] The +stat(1) utility +now displays an octal representation of suid, sgid and sticky bits when the -x flag is specified.

+ +

[7.2R] The +strndup(3) +function has been added.

+ +

The +tftpd(8) program +now supports a -W option. This is almost the same as a -w option but will generate unique named based on the submitted +filename, a +strftime(3) +format string, and a two digit sequence number. The time format string can be set by an +-F option.

+ +

[7.2R] The wc(1) utility now +supports an -L flag to output the number of characters in the +longest input line.

+ +

[7.2R] A bug in the +rpc.yppasswdd(8) +program, which causes it to leave a zombie process when a password or default shell is +changed, has been fixed.

+ +

[7.1R] The +adduser(8) +utility now supports a -M option to set the mode of a new +user's home directory.

+ +

[7.1R] The +atacontrol(8) +utility now supports a spindown command to set or report timeout +after which the device will be spun down.

+ +

+ +

[7.1R] The cp(1) now supports a +-a flag, which is equivalent to -RpP flags.

+ +

[7.1R] A bug in the cp(1) utility which +prevents POSIX.1e ACL (see also +acl(3)) from +copying properly has been fixed.

+ +

[7.1R] The +cron(8) utility +now supports -m flag which overrides the default mail +recipient for cron mails unless explicitly provided by MAILTO= +line in crontab file.

+ +

[7.1R] The +dhclient(8) now +supports more options described in +dhcp-options(5).

+ +

[7.1R] The +dhclient(8) now +supports is_default_interface() function which determines +if this interface is one with the default route.

+ +

[7.1R] A bug in the +dhclient(8) that +prevents removal of the default route from working has been fixed.

+ +

[7.1R] The +environ(7), +environment array of strings now supports unsetting a variable by setting the first +character to NULL. This is required by third-party software such as Dovecot and Postfix.

+ +

[7.1R] The +fdisk(8) now +supports a -q flag to not display any warnings.

+ +

[7.1R] The +fetch(1) program +and libfetch library now supports a NO_PROXY environment variable. This specifies comma- or +whitespace-separated list of host names for which proxies should not be used. If a single +asterisk is specified, the use of proxies is disabled.

+ +

[7.1R] The +ffsll(3) and +flsll(3) +functions have been added. These functions are the same as +ffs(3) and +fls(3) except +that they accept long long as the arguments.

+ +

[7.1R] The +fortune(6) +program now supports FORTUNE_PATH environment variable to +specify search path of the fortune files.

+ +

+ +

[7.1R] The +memrchr(3) +function has been added. This behaves like +memchr(3) except +that it locates the last occurrence of the specified character in the string.

+ +

[7.1R] The incorrect output grammar of +morse(6) program +has been fixed.

+ +

[7.1R] The +mountd(8) +utility now supports -h bindip option which specifies IP addresses to bind +to for TCP and UDP requests. This option may be specified multiple times. If no -h option is specified, INADDR_ANY will be +used. Note that when specifying IP addresses with this option, it will automatically add +127.0.0.1 and if IPv6 is enabled, ::1 +to the list.

+ +

[7.1R] The +moused(8) +utility now supports -L flag which changes the speed of +scrolling and changes -U option behavior to only affect the +scroll threshold.

3 Upgrading from previous releases of +FreeBSD

+ +

[amd64, i386] Upgrades between RELEASE versions (and snapshots of the various security +branches) are supported using the +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 FreeBSD release. The +freebsd-update(8) utility requires that the host +being upgraded has Internet connectivity.

+ +

An older form of binary upgrade is supported through the Upgrade option from the main +sysinstall(8) +menu on CDROM distribution media. This type of binary upgrade may be useful on non-i386, +non-amd64 machines or on systems with no Internet connectivity.

+ +

Source-based upgrades (those based on recompiling the FreeBSD base system from source +code) from previous versions are supported, according to the instructions in /usr/src/UPDATING.

+ +
+
+

Important: Upgrading FreeBSD should, of course, only be attempted after backing +up all data and configuration +files.
