13+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
14
15SMP OPTION REMOVED
16------------------
17
18The SMP kernel option has been made a no-op. All kernels now feature SMP
19support. If you have 'options SMP' in your kernel config, you can as well
20remove it.
21
22DEVICE_POLLING OPTION REPLACED BY IFPOLL_ENABLE OPTION, KTR_POLLING REMOVED
23---------------------------------------------------------------------------
24
25The DEVICE_POLLING kernel option has been made a no-op and it has been
26replaced by IFPOLL_ENABLE. If you have 'options DEVICE_POLLING' in your
27kernel config, you need to change it to IFPOLL_ENABLE.
28
29Also, the KTR_POLLING kernel option has been removed, so it must be
30removed from kernel configs that have it.
31
32BUSLOGIC, CYCLADES AND STALLION ISA SUPPORT REMOVED
33---------------------------------------------------
34
35The bt(4) driver for Buslogic SCSI adapters has been made PCI only. ISA
36cards will no longer be detected.
37
38The same has been done for Stallion multiport serial controllers. stli(4)
39has been completely removed (along with the stlload(8) and stlstty(8)
40utilities) and stl(4) was changed to support only PCI cards. Similarly,
41ISA support was removed from cy(4) too. All these drivers are i386 only.
42
43COMPAT_OLDISA OPTION GONE
44-------------------------
45
46The i386 specific COMPAT_OLDISA kernel option has been removed, since
47nothing needs it anymore.
48

50+ UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 3.0 to later versions +
51+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
52
53APIC_IO OPTION REMOVED
54----------------------
55
56The APIC_IO kernel option is no longer accepted after having been without
57effect for a while. The hw.ioapic_enable tunable now serves its purpose.
58If you have 'options APIC_IO' in your kernel config, you'll have to
59remove it.
60
61WATCHDOG_ENABLE & HW_WDOG OPTIONS REMOVED
62-----------------------------------------
63
64The wdog framework is now compiled into our kernels by default, so the
65options are no longer needed.
66
67DOSCMD(1) REMOVED
68-----------------
69
70doscmd(1) has been removed. It was i386 only. The doscmd(1) specific
71NO_X make.conf option was removed too.
72
73GCC 4.7
74-------
75
76GCC 4.7 has been brought in and replaces GCC 4.1 as DragonFly's non-
77default compiler in base (default is still GCC 4.4).
78
79Users who wish to build only GCC 4.4 have to replace NO_GCC41 with
80NO_GCC47 in /etc/make.conf.
81
82USB4BSD
83-------
84
85A new USB stack (from FreeBSD) has been brought in. The following
86modules have been ported so far: usb, uhci, ohci, ehci, xhci, umass,
87usfs, uether, if_axe, if_udav, ukbd, ums, uep, uhid, usb_quirk,
88and uaudio.
89
90It is not yet the default. To activate it, WANT_USB4BSD=yes has to
91be put in make.conf and device "usb4bsd" (quotes needed) has to
92replace device usb in the kernel config. After that, a full
93build/install/upgrade cycle is needed.
94
95Note that this is experimental and incomplete, but we are interested
96in hearing about issues with it, of course.
97
98ISA SUPPORT REMOVED FROM AIC-6260/6360 DRIVER
99---------------------------------------------
100
101ISA adapter support was dropped from the aic(4) driver.
102
103+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
104+ UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 2.10 to later versions +
105+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
106
107SEVERAL ISA DRIVERS REMOVED
108---------------------------
109
110The following ISA only drivers have been removed along with a couple of
111associated userland tools:
112
113aha(4)
114asc(4) & sasc(1)
115ctx
116dgb(4)
117el(4)
118gpib
119gsc(4) & sgsc(1)
120ie(4)
121labpc(4)
122le(4)
123mse(4)
124rc(4)
125rdp(4)
126spigot
127tw(4) & xten(1) & xtend(8)
128wl(4) & wlconfig(8)
129wt(4)
130
131Note that two of these drivers (aha(4) and ie(4)) are in our GENERIC
132config and one (aha(4)) is in our X86_64_GENERIC kernel configuration
133file.
134
135If buildkernel complains about any of these drivers, just remove them
136from your kernel configuration.
137
138BINUTILS 2.20
139-------------
140Binutils 2.20 has been removed in favor of Binutils 2.22. The accepted
141values of BINUTILSVERS are now binutils221 and binutils222 (default).
142
143BUILDWORLD/-KERNEL PARALLELIZATION WORK
144---------------------------------------
145Due to changes in the way we build with more than one make job, you
146will have to update install(1) and mkdir(1) prior to buildworld if you
147want to build with 'make -j':
148
149cd /usr/src/usr.bin/xinstall; make; make install; make clean
150cd /usr/src/bin/mkdir; make; make install; make clean
151
152DMA(8) UPGRADE
153--------------
154dma(8) has been upgraded to v0.7 which no longer supports the
155/etc/dma/virtusertable. Some of its functionality has been replaced
156with the MASQUERADE keyword and the EMAIL environment variable (see
157the dma(8) manual page).
158

160+ UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 2.8 to later versions +
161+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
162
163GCC 4.4 & BINUTILS 2.21
164-----------------------
165
166GCC 4.4 has been made DragonFly's default compiler and Binutils 2.21 has
167been made DragonFly's default Binutils.
168
169That means that any settings that set CCVER to 'gcc44' are not needed
170anymore. Instead, CCVER can be set to 'gcc41' to go back to using
171GCC 4.1.
172
173It also means that 'binutils221' as a value for BINUTILSVER has no
174effect anymore. 2.17 has been removed and 'binutils220' is available
175as an option.
176
177The NO_GCC44 option has been removed and will not affect the build
178anymore. There is now a NO_GCC41 option that will prevent GCC 4.1 from
179building in a similar fashion.
180
181Note that you must do a full buildworld/buildkernel for upgrading.
182
183pkg_radd settings
184-----------------
185
186The config file for pkg_radd has moved from /etc/settings.conf to
187/etc/pkg_radd.conf. Save the contents of settings.conf before upgrading
188if this is needed. This warning only applies if /etc/settings.conf
189exists. pkg_radd will continue to work with defaults.

194+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
195
196OpenSSL
197--------
198
199OpenSSL has been upgraded, and SHLIB_MAJOR was bumped for libssh and libcrypto.
200This shouldn't break any 3rd-party software, but you'll need to recompile your
2013rd-party software if you want it to link against the new version of OpenSSL.
202
203Loader
204-------
205
206A new loader (dloader) has been added which better handles booting from
207multiple kernel/module versions.
208
209To upgrade (Only for this upgrade, for post 2.8 upgrades see GENERAL below)
210
211 cd /usr/src
212 make buildworld
213 make installworld
214 make upgrade
215 make buildkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
216 make installkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
217
218Note that you must installworld and run the 'upgrade' target before
219installing the new kernel.
220
221BIND
222-----
223
224BIND has been removed from the base system. The ldns and drill tools have
225been added for basic functionality. Use 'drill' where you would normally
226use nslookup or dig, or install BIND from pkgsrc. It's available as
227net/bind95, net/bind96, or net/bind97 as of this writing.
228
229This only affects older systems upgrading to 2.8. New 2.8+ installs
230include BIND as a pkgsrc package.
231
232+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
233+ UPGRADING DRAGONFLY ON AN EXISTING DRAGONFLY SYSTEM +
234+ GENERAL +
235+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
236
237Instructions on how to obtain and maintain DragonFly source code using git
238are in the development(7) manual page.
239
240To upgrade a DragonFly system from sources you run the following sequence:
241
242 cd /usr/src
243 make buildworld
244 make buildkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
245 make installkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
246 make installworld
247
248You will also want to run the 'upgrade' target to upgrade your /etc and the
249rest of your system. The upgrade target is aware of stale files created by
250older DragonFly installations and should delete them automatically.
251
252 make upgrade
253
254See the build(7) manual page for further information.
255
256Once you've done a full build of the world and kernel you can do incremental
257upgrades of either by using the 'quickworld' and 'quickkernel' targets
258instead of 'buildworld' and 'buildkernel'. If you have any problems with
259the quick targets, try updating your repo first, and then a full buildworld
260and buildkernel as shown above, before asking for help.
261
262+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
263+ UPGRADING FROM DRAGONFLY <= 2.0 TO DRAGONFLY >= 2.1 +
264+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
265
266In 2.1 kernel and modules has moved to boot directory. For most cases
267this is handled automatically by 'make upgrade'. A few cases needs manual
268intervention:
269
270 * When installing a kernel without first doing a make buildworld,
271 installworld and upgrade to the same DESTDIR as kernel:
272 make DESTDIR/boot directory and move kernel and modules into this boot
273 directory; also move kernel.old and modules.old.
274 Typical example is vkernel(7), use (no modules used):
275
276 cd /var/vkernel
277 mkdir boot
278 chflags noschg kernel
279 mv kernel kernel.old boot
280 chflags schg boot/kernel
281
282 * When using a boot-only partition, /boot/loader.rc needs to be edited:
283 delete occurrences of '/boot/'.
284 These occurences can normally be deleted in any case, see loader(8).
285
286+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
287+ UPGRADING FROM DRAGONFLY <= 1.8 TO DRAGONFLY >= 1.9 +
288+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
289
290In 1.9 major changes to the disk management infrastructure have taken
291place. make upgrade may not catch all of your disk devices in /dev,
292so after upgrading be sure to cd /dev; ./MAKEDEV <blah> where <blah>
293are all of your disk devices. HOWEVER, from late 2.3 on we run devfs
294and MAKEDEV no longer exists.
295
296The biggest changes in 1.9 are:
297
298(1) That whole-slice devices such as da0s1 no longer share the same device
299 id as partition c devices such as da0s1c.
300
301(2) The whole-disk device (e.g. da0) is full raw access to the disk,
302 with no snooping or reserved sectors. Consequently you cannot run
303 disklabel on this device. Instead you must run disklabel on a
304 whole-slice device.
305
306(3) The 'compatibility' partitions now use slice 0 in the device name,
307 so instead of da0a you must specify da0s0a. Also, as per (1) above,
308 accessing the disklabel for the compatibility partitions must be
309 done via slice 0 (da0s0).
310
311(4) Many device drivers that used to fake up labels, such as CD, ACD, VN,
312 and CCD now run through the disk management layer and are assigned
313 real disk management devices. VN and CCD in particular do not usually
314 use a MBR and disklabels must be accessed through the compatibility
315 slice 0. Your /etc/ccd.conf file still specifies 'ccd0', though, you
316 don't name it 'ccd0s0' in the config file.
317
318Generally speaking, you have to get used to running fdisk and disklabel on
319the correctly specified device names. A lot of the wiggle, such as running
320disklabel on a partition, has been removed.
321

324+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
325
326> Kerberos IV
327-------------
328
329Kerberos IV (eBones) was removed from the tree, please consider moving to
330Kerberos 5 (Heimdal).
331
332> Package Management System
333---------------------------
334
335Starting with the 1.4 release, DragonFly uses NetBSD's pkgsrc package
336management system. The necessary tools to build and maintain packages
337are provided in /usr/pkg/bin and /usr/pkg/sbin. Make sure that these
338directories are in your PATH variable.
339
340In order to obtain a reasonably current snapshot of the pkgsrc tree, use
341the tarball from NetBSD:
342
343 fetch -o /tmp/pkgsrc.tar.gz ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc.tar.gz
344 cd /usr; tar -xzf /tmp/pkgsrc.tar.gz; chown -R root:wheel pkgsrc
345
346This tree can then be kept up to date with cvs update:
347
348 cd /usr/pkgsrc; cvs up
349
350NOTE! If you upgraded from a pre-1.4 system to 1.4 or later, you need to
351build and install the pkgsrc bootstrap manually:
352
353 cd /usr/pkgsrc/bootstrap
354 ./bootstrap --pkgdbdir /var/db/pkg --prefix /usr/pkg

359+ DRAGONFLY 1.3+ (EITHER PREVIEW or HEAD) +
360+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
361
362The compatibility shims for the build environment have been removed, you
363have to update to DragonFly 1.2 release branch first.
364
365The default PAM configuration has moved from /etc/pam.conf to /etc/pam.d/.
366The existing configuration can be converted using /etc/pam.d/convert.sh.
367Entries in /etc/pam.d/ override entries in /etc/pam.conf. In addition
368the pam_skey.so module was retired, you have to remove it manually from
369your configuration, when you convert it.
370
371> Required user and group IDs when upgrading from either FreeBSD or DragonFly
372---------------------
373
374The following users may be missing from your password file. Use vipw and
375add any that are missing:
376
377smmsp:*:25:25::0:0:Sendmail Submission User:/var/spool/clientmqueue:/sbin/nologin
378_pflogd:*:64:64::0:0:pflogd privsep user:/var/empty:/sbin/nologin
379
380The following groups may be missing from your group file. Use vi /etc/group
381and add any that are missing:
382
383smmsp:*:25:
384authpf:*:63:
385_pflogd:*:64:
386
387
388> Upgrading to DragonFly from FreeBSD
389---------------------
390
391You can build the DragonFly world and DragonFly kernels on a FreeBSD-4.x or
392FreeBSD-5.x machine and then install DragonFly over FreeBSD, replacing
393FreeBSD. Note that the DragonFly buildworld target does not try to reuse
394make depend information, it starts from scratch, so no pre-cleaning of the
395object hierarchy is necessary.
396
397 # get the CVS repository (it is placed in /home/dcvs, 500MB).
398 # Please use the -h option and a mirror site to pull the
399 # initial repository, but feel free to use the main repository
400 # machine to pull updates.
401 cvsup /usr/share/examples/cvsup/DragonFly-cvs-supfile
402 # install the source from the CVS hierarchy (remove preexisting
403 # FreeBSD src first) (500MB)
404 cd /usr
405 rm -rf src
406 cvs -R -d /home/dcvs checkout -P src
407
408 # build it (500MB used in /usr/obj)
409 #
410 cd /usr/src
411 make buildworld
412 make buildkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
413
414Once you have built DragonFly you have to install it over FreeBSD. Since
415DragonFly does not track changes made by FreeBSD to its include file
416hierarchy and include file pollution can cause all sorts of unexpected
417compilation issues to come up, it is best to wipe your include hierarchy
418prior to installing DragonFly. Note that you should not wipe any installed
419FreeBSD header files or binaries until after you have successfully completed
420the build steps above.
421
422 rm -rf /usr/include
423 mkdir /usr/include
424 make installkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
425 make installworld
426
427Then you need to upgrade your system. DragonFly's 'make upgrade' target
428will unconditionally upgrade the /etc files that sysops do not usually
429mess around with, such as the files in /etc/rc.d. It will also remove any
430obsolete files such as utilities and manpages that have been removed from
431the system since the version you're coming from. If you are unsure we
432recommend that you make a backup of at least your /etc before applying
433this step. Note that DragonFly's RC system is basically RCNG from
434FreeBSD-5, but there are some differences in the contents of the RC files.
435
436 make upgrade
437
438NOTE! Never do a 'make upgrade' before 'make installworld' has been run.
439Doing so might leave your system in an unusable state.
440
441Finally we recommend that you do an 'ls -lta BLAH' for /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin,
442/usr/bin, and /usr/lib, and remove any stale files that you find. Please
443report these files to the DragonFly developers so that they can be added to
444the 'upgrade' target.
445
