Since - release 2.0, FreeBSD has been based on the Berkeley - 4.4BSD-Lite code rather than the Net2 code used for - previous versions. In addition to clearing the legal - issues that surrounded the Net2 code, the port to 4.4 - has also brought in numerous new features, filesystems - and enhanced driver support. - - Since our release of FreeBSD 2.0 in November of 1994, - the performance, feature set, and stability of FreeBSD - has improved dramatically. The largest change is a - revamped Virtual Memory (VM) system with a merged - virtual memory and file buffer cache. This increases - performance while reducing FreeBSD's memory footprint, - making a system with 4 megabytes of RAM a more - acceptable minimum. Other enhancements include full - NIS client and server support, transaction TCP support, - dial on demand PPP, an improved SCSI subsystem, early - support for ISDN, support for FDDI and 100Mbit Fast - Ethernet adapters, improved support for the Adaptec - 2940 and hundreds of bug fixes. - - We have also taken the comments and suggestions of many - of our users to heart and have attempted to provide - what we hope is a more sane and easily understood - installation process. Your feedback on this constantly - evolving process is especially welcome! - - In addition to the base distributions, FreeBSD offers a - new ported software collection with some 270 commonly - sought-after programs. The list of ports ranges from - World Wide Web (http) servers, to games, languages, - editors and almost everything in between. The entire - ports collection requires only 10MB of storage because - each port contains only the changes required for the - source code to compile on FreeBSD and the information - necessary to automatically retrieve the original - sources. The original distribution for each port you - build is automatically retrieved off of CD-ROM or a via - anonymous ftp, so you need only enough disk space to - build the ports you want. Each port is also provided - as a pre-compiled package which can be installed with - the <tt>pkg_add(1)</tt> command for those who do not - wish to compile their own ports from source. See <ref - id="ports" name="The Ports Collection"> for a more - complete description. - -<!-- XXX make xref - For a list of contributors and a general project - description, please see the file "CONTRIB.FreeBSD" - which should be bundled with your binary distribution. - - Also see the "REGISTER.FreeBSD" file for information on - registering with the "Free BSD user counter". This - counter is for ALL freely available variants of BSD, - not just FreeBSD, and we urge you to register yourself - with it. ---> - - The core of FreeBSD does not contain DES code which - would inhibit its being exported outside the United - States. An add-on package, for use only in the United - States, contains the programs that normally use DES. - The auxiliary packages provided separately can be used - by anyone. A freely exportable European distribution - of DES for our non-U.S. users also exists and is - described in the <url - url="http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ" name="FreeBSD - FAQ">. If password security for FreeBSD is all you - need, and you have no requirement for copying encrypted - passwords from other hosts using DES into FreeBSD - password entries, then FreeBSD's MD5 based security may - be all you require. We feel that our default security - model is more than a match for DES, and without any - messy export issues to deal with. - - FreeBSD 2.0.5 represents the culmination of 2 years of - work and many thousands of man hours put in by an - international development team. We hope you enjoy it! - - <sect1><heading>New feature highlights</heading> - - <p>The following features were added or substantially - improved between the release of 2.0 and this 2.0.5 - release. In order to facilitate better - communication, the person, or persons, responsible - for each enhancement is noted. Any questions - regarding the new functionality should be directed to - them first. - - <sect2><heading>Kernel</heading> - - <p> - <descrip> - - <tag>Merged VM-File Buffer Cache</tag> A merged - VM/buffer cache design greatly enhances overall - system performance and makes it possible to do - a number of more optimal memory allocation - strategies that were not possible before. - - Owner: &a.davidg; and &a.dyson; - - <tag>Network PCB hash optimization</tag> For - systems with a great number of active TCP - connections (WEB and ftp servers, for example), - this greatly speeds up the lookup time required - to match an incoming packet up to its - associated connection. - - Owner: &a.davidg; - - <tag>Name cache optimization</tag> The name-cache - would cache all files of the same name to the - same bucket, which would put for instance all - ".." entries in the same bucket. We added the - parent directory version to frustrate the hash, - and improved the management of the cache in - various other ways while we were at it. - - Owner: &a.phk; and &a.davidg; - - <tag>Less restrictive swap-spaces</tag> The need - to compile the names of the swap devices into - the kernel has been removed. Now - <tt>swapon(8)</tt> will accept any block - devices, up to the maximum number of swap - devices configured in the kernel. - - Owner: &a.phk; and &a.davidg; - - <tag>Hard Wired SCSI Devices</tag> Prior to - 2.0.5, FreeBSD performed dynamic assignment of - unit numbers to SCSI devices as they were - probed, allowing a SCSI device failure to - possibly change unit number assignment. This - could cause filesystems other disks in the - system to be incorrectly mounted, or not - mounted at all. Hard wiring allows static - allocation of unit numbers (and hence device - names) to scsi devices based on SCSI ID and - bus. SCSI configuration occurs in the kernel - config file. Samples of the configuration - syntax can be found in the <tt>scsi(4)</tt> man - page or the LINT kernel config file. - - Owner: &a.dufault; - - Sources involved: <tt>sys/scsi/*</tt> - <tt>usr.sbin/config/*</tt> - - <tag>Slice Support</tag> FreeBSD now supports a - <em>slice</em> abstraction which enhances - FreeBSD's ability to share disks with other - operating systems. This support will allow - FreeBSD to inhabit DOS extended partitions. - - Owner: &a.bde; - - Sources involved: <tt>sys/disklabel.h</tt> - <tt>sys/diskslice.h</tt> <tt>sys/dkbad.h</tt> - <tt>kern/subr_diskslice.c</tt> <tt>kern/subr_dkbad.c</tt> - <tt>i386/isa/diskslice_machdep.c</tt> <tt>i386/isa/wd.c</tt> - <tt>scsi/sd.c</tt> <tt>dev/vn/vn.c</tt> - - <tag>Support for Ontrack Disk Manager Version 6.0</tag> - Support has been added for disks - which use Ontrack Disk Manager. The fdisk - program does <em>not</em> know about it - however, so make all changes using the install - program on the boot.flp or the Ontrack Disk - Manager tool under MS-DOS. - - Owner: &a.phk; - - <tag>Bad144 is back and working</tag> Bad144 - works again, though the semantics are slightly - different than before in that the bad-spots are - kept relative to the slice rather than absolute - on the disk. - - Owner: &a.bde; and &a.phk; - - </descrip> - - <sect2><heading>New device support</heading> - - <sect3><heading>SCSI and CDROM devices</heading> - - <p><descrip> - - <tag>Matsushita/Panasonic (Creative) CD-ROM driver</tag> - The Matsushita/Panasonic CR-562 and - CR-563 drives are now supported when connected to - a Sound Blaster or 100% compatible host adapter. - Up to four host adapters are supported for a - total of 16 CD-ROM drives. The audio functions - are supported with the Karoke variable speed - playback. - - Owner: &a.uhclem; - - Sources involved: <tt>isa/matcd</tt> - - <tag>Adaptec 2742/2842/2940 SCSI driver</tag> The - original 274x/284x driver has evolved - considerably since the 2.0 release of FreeBSD. - We now offer full support for the 2940 series as - well as the Wide models of these cards. The - arbitration bug that caused problems with fast - devices has been corrected and - <em>experimental</em> tagged queuing support has - been added (kernel option - <tt>AHC_TAGENABLE</tt>). John Aycock has also - released the sequencer code under a Berkeley - style copyright making the driver entirely clean - of the GPL. - - Owner: &a.gibbs; - - Sources involved: <tt>isa/aic7770.c</tt> <tt>pci/aic7870.c</tt> - <tt>i386/scsi/*</tt> <tt>sys/dev/aic7xxx/*</tt> - - <tag>NCR5380/NCR53400 SCSI (ProAudio Spectrum) driver</tag> - Owner: &a.core; - - Submitted by: Serge Vakulenko (vak@cronyx.ru) - - Sources involved: <tt>isa/ncr5380.c</tt> - - <tag>Sony CDROM driver</tag> Owner: &a.core; - - Submitted by: Mikael Hybsch (micke@dynas.se) - - Sources involved: <tt>isa/scd.c</tt> - - </descrip> - - <sect3><heading>Serial devices</heading> - - <p><descrip> - - <tag>SDL Communications Riscom/8 Serial Board Driver</tag> - Owner: &a.ache; - - Sources involved: <tt>isa/rc.c</tt> <tt>isa/rcreg.h</tt> - - <tag>Cyclades Cyclom-y Serial Board Driver</tag> - Owner: &a.bde; - - Submitted by: Andrew Werple - (andrew@werple.apana.org.au) and Heikki Suonsivu - (hsu@cs.hut.fi) - - Obtained from: NetBSD - - Sources involved: <tt>isa/cy.c</tt> - - <tag>Cronyx/Sigma sync/async serial driver</tag> - Owner: &a.core; - - Submitted by: Serge Vakulenko - - Sources involved: <tt>isa/cronyx.c</tt> - - </descrip> - - <sect2><heading>Networking</heading> - - <p><descrip> - - <tag>Diskless booting</tag> Diskless booting in 2.0.5 - is much improved over previous releases.
