FreeBSD src/ r240000

Development

Alan L. Cox 今天 commit 了 r240000。我记得刚换 svn 的那会才18到19万 revision 的样子。。。

FreeBSD 的 svn 代码库包括了从 1993 年 6 月 12 日到现在的全部 revision。与之前的 “n"cvs 不同(由于诉讼原因,FreeBSD 在 1994 年以 4.4-Lite 为基础重建了新的 cvs 代码库,也就是 2.x 和后来版本的 ncvs;早期代码库仍然可以在一些光盘出版物上找到),这套代码库包括了 FreeBSD 从一开始到现在的全部修订历史(不过,FreeBSD 2.0 之前的 tag 并未保留)。

1GB page on AMD processor

Kernel

So now AMD 0x10 processors can handle 1GB pages, according to Alan Cox’s commit today! It would be exciting to see it on FreeBSD 8.0 (already in -HEAD).

(I’m still looking for a development desktop PC donation, see the FreeBSD wantlist)

ZERO_COPY_SOCKET discouraged for now

Kernel

It seems that we still have some race conditions that can lead to strange issues and we may want to discourage this for 6.0-RELEASE.

Alan Cox has committed some fixes for the issue, hope these can be merged back.

Matt's DragonFly VM fix

Kernel

Matt has committed a critical VM fix and kindly reminded that FreeBSD has also the issue. I have ported the patch here and requested a review by Dr. Alan Cox. I’d like to commit it at once it is approved.
