13+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
14
15IPSEC, IPSEC_ESP AND IPSEC_DEBUG REMOVED FROM VKERNEL64 CONFIG
16--------------------------------------------------------------
17
18IPsec has been removed from the system. Of our standard kernel
19configurations, only the virtual kernel one had it. People running
20vkernels with configuration files derived from our VKERNEL64 will
21have to remove these options manually.

25+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
26
27VIRTIO_PCI REMOVED FROM KERNEL CONFIG
28-------------------------------------
29
30The "device virtio_pci" line in X86_64_GENERIC has been removed. People
31with configuration files derived from it have to remove it manually.
32
33VARIOUS 'R' COMMANDS AND DAEMONS REMOVED
34----------------------------------------
35
36rcp(1), rlogin(1), rlogind(8), rsh(1) and rshd(8) have been removed.
37For those that still need them, there is the net/bsdrcmds port.
38
39VARIOUS FORMER OPTIONS REMOVED
40------------------------------
41
42Various former kernel configuration options which had been no-ops for
43some time were completely removed: SYSVMSG, SYSVSEM, SYSVSHM, P1003_1B,
44_KPOSIX_VERSION and DSCHED_FQ. Users that have any of these still in
45their kernel configuration files have to remove them.
46
47BOOTSTRAPPING LIMITED FROM PRE 4.4
48----------------------------------
49
50Upgrading to 5.1 and later versions now require at least 4.4 in
51preparations for upcoming base compilers updates.
52
53IF_PPP, PPPD, IF_FAITH, AND FAITHD REMOVED
54------------------------------------------
55
56if_ppp has been replaced by "user ppp", i.e. ppp(8) and tun(4). It had
57already been removed from our default kernel configuration before 5.0,
58so only people with custom configurations based on earlier X86_64_GENERIC
59will have to remove it manually.
60
61The faith(4) interface has been completely removed after it had also
62been removed from our default kernel configuration.
63

65+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 4.8 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
66+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
67
68FFS_ROOT OPTION DISABLED
69------------------------
70
71The FFS_ROOT option has been made a no-op and will be completely removed
72at some point in the future. Users with a custom kernel configuration
73can remove this option from it now.
74
75+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
76+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 4.6 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
77+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
78
79AHC, AHD, AIC, NCV, NSP AND STG DRIVERS REMOVED
80-----------------------------------------------
81
82They were all in our X86_64_GENERIC kernel configuration file, along with
83the AHC_REG_PRETTY_PRINT and AHD_REG_PRETTY_PRINT options, so any custom
84configuration files derived from it need adjustment.
85
86PORTAL FILE SYSTEM REMOVED
87--------------------------
88
89It has been broken for a long time now.
90
91BINUTILS 2.27 REPLACES 2.24, PRIMARY
92------------------------------------
93
94The oldest of the two versions of Binutils, version 2.24, was removed
95and replaced with Binutils 2.27.  It becomes the primary version version
96of binutils and version 2.25 becomes the alternate.
97
98The accepted values of BINUTILSVER are now "binutils227" (default) and
99"binutils225".  The building of Binutils 2.25 can be prevented by setting
100NO_ALTBINUTILS=yes in make.conf.
101
102COMPAT_43 KERNEL OPTION REMOVED
103-------------------------------
104
105It was commented out in our default configs for several years now, but
106might still be present in custom configs created before Nov. 2011.
107
108OPENSSL REMOVED
109---------------
110
111OpenSSL has been removed from base and replaced with a private version of
112LibreSSL.  The previously installed OpenSSL libraries, headers, and man
113pages will remain on the system unless the "make upgrade" command is
114specifically instructed to remove them.  To do this, define
115REMOVE_OPENSSL_FILES for the upgrade command, e.g.
116"make upgrade REMOVE_OPENSSL_FILES=yes"
117
11828-Oct-2016: openssl has been replaced by ressl.  It is recommended that any
119stale OpenSSL files be removed to avoid configuration scripts from using
120the stale and potentially vulnerable version, but all binaries that are
121dynamically linked to the OpenSSL libraries should be rebuilt first to
122avoid breakage.
123
124OPENSSH HPN REMOVED
125-------------------
126
127It has become too cumbersome to maintain HPN patches in OpenSSH in base.
128To use OpenSSH in base remove HPN config, if you have added it.
129Check files below for HPN config, see a few lines below.
130  /etc/ssh/ssh_config, /etc/ssh/sshd_config, ~/.ssh/config
131sshd(8) will fail to start if HPN config is used.
132
133NOTE: HPN config in sshd_config will prohibit remote access to host using ssh.
134
135HPN config:
136HPNDisabled
137HPNBufferSize
138TcpRcvBuf
139TcpRcvBufPoll
140NoneEnabled
141NoneSwitch
142cipher MTR-AES-CTR
143cipher NONE
144
145OpenSSH HPN is a patch set to OpenSSH providing higher performance under some
146circumstances, especially for networking.
147If HPN functionality is needed, install security/openssh from dports.
148
149CS, EX AND VX DRIVERS REMOVED
150-----------------------------
151
152The cs(4), ex(4) and vx(4) drivers have been removed. They were very
153old and its doubtful they ever worked properly in x86_64 but they were
154in X86_64_GENERIC, so custom configurations derived from it have to be
155adjusted.
156
157+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
158+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 4.4 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
159+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
160
161AMD REMOVED
162-----------
163
164The am-utils automounter suite has been removed. It stopped working
165at some point and was never fixed. autofs(5) and the associated
166userland has been brought in from FreeBSD and replaces it.
167
168AN DRIVER REMOVED
169-----------------
170
171The an(4) driver has been removed. It was in the X86_64_GENERIC kernel
172config file, so any configurations derived from it have to be adjusted.
173
174/DEV/DRI GROUP CHANGED
175----------------------
176
177The default group assigned to /dev/dri entries has been changed
178from 'wheel' to 'video' with the id of '44'. If you want to have
179access to the dri devices please add yourself to the video group
180with:
181
182# pw groupmod video -m $USER
183
184+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
185+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 4.2 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
186+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
187
188DSCHED REMOVED
189--------------
190
191dsched(4) has been removed and one of its kernel options, DSCHED_FQ, was
192in our default kernel config file. So the DSCHED_FQ option has been turned
193into a no-op for now and can be removed from custom configurations.
194
195EST DRIVER REMOVED, COMPILE_ET AND LIBCOM_ERR TOO
196-------------------------------------------------
197
198The est(4) driver has been removed. All CPUs it supported (except one)
199were 32 bits only. Those who are still using the Core 2 Duo T7500 should
200report back if there are any issues with this CPU and our regular ACPI
201P-state support.
202
203Also, compile_et(1) and com_err(3) have been removed as well. They
204should have been removed along with kerberos support, back in 2009.
205
206SEVERAL LOCALES RENAMED
207-----------------------
208
209Several locales were using obsolete and misleading names, and thus have
210been adjusted to current standards. Any users of the following locales
211need to select alternates:
212
213DFLY 4.2 locale            DFLY 4.4 alterative locale
214---------------            ------------------------------------

235
236BINUTILS 2.25 REPLACES 2.22, PRIMARY
237------------------------------------
238
239The oldest of the two versions of Binutils, version 2.22, was removed
240and replaced with Binutils 2.25.  It becomes the primary version version
241of binutils and version 2.24 becomes the alternate.  There are 8 current
242CVE written against 2.24, so for security reasons version 2.25 should
243always be used.
244
245The accepted values of BINUTILSVER are now "binutils225" (default) and
246"binutils224".  The building of Binutils 2.24 can be prevented by setting
247NO_ALTBINUTILS=yes in make.conf.
248
249LOADER OPTIONS CHANGED
250----------------------
251
252Right after the development branch started, the Fred art accompanying the
253loader menu was improved.  The line between Fred and the menu was removed
254by default (but can optionally be returned) and the placement shifted as
255a result.  The drawing was improved, and the colored version was improved,
256changing the eyes and wing color from white to red.  A new color version
257of Fred was added, one with a blue scheme.
258
259The loader menu defaults have changed since release 4.0:  The vertical
260line was removed, the loader is displayed in color by default*, and the
261blue scheme is used.
262
263The loader.conf changes are:
264loader_color:   option has been removed
265loader_plain:   option has been added, it changed menu to monochrome
266fred_is_red:    changes color scheme from blue to red
267fred_is_blue:   option existed only on 4.1, it has been removed
268fred_separated: Adds line between Fred and menu (as seen previously)
269
270* If loader.conf defines "console" as "comconsole" or "console" is defined
271  in the environment as "comconsole" then color will not be displayed,
272  even if loader_plain value is "NO".
273
274SENDMAIL REMOVED FROM BASE
275--------------------------
276
277The only Mail Transfer Agent provided now is DragonFly Mail Agent (dma).
278If the system being upgraded is still configured to use the sendmail
279binaries from base, the "make upgrade" command will fail.
280
281The administrator must change /etc/mail/mailer.conf to switch the
282mailwrapper to dma or a DPorts-based MTA prior to running the upgrade
283command that permanently removes sendmail executables and could
284potentially break a running mail server.
285
286Refer: http://www.dragonflybsd.com/docs/docs/newhandbook/mta/ for
287detailed instructions on how to configure the MTA selection.
288
289_KPOSIX_VERSION and P1003_1B OPTIONS REMOVED
290--------------------------------------------
291
292The _KPOSIX_VERSION and P1003_1B kernel options have been changed to
293no-ops. They can be removed from custom kernel configurations.
294
295SOUND SYSTEM UPDATED FROM FreeBSD 11-CURRENT
296--------------------------------------------
297
298Many more sound devices may be detected.
299
300If the default device choosen isn't to your liking, setting the sysctl
301hw.snd.default_unit to a different number will change it.
302
303SCTP SUPPORT DROPPED
304--------------------
305
306Support for the SCTP protocol has been removed.
307
308OLD USB DRIVERS REMOVED
309-----------------------
310
311The old USB stack, along with the kernel config option "device oldusb"
312and the make.conf variable "WANT_OLDUSB" have been removed. This means
313that for custom kernel configuration files which were derived from a
314GENERIC or X86_64_GENERIC file prior to making the usb4bsd stack default,
315various (old USB stack specific) devices will now complain about being
316unknown:
317
318  * oldusb	(obviously)
319  * natausb	(not yet ported to usb4bsd)
320  * rue		(not yet ported to usb4bsd)
321  * ugen	(no longer needed in usb4bsd)
322  * urio	(not yet ported to usb4bsd)
323  * uscanner	(no longer needed in usb4bsd)
324
325They should be removed or commented out in such custom kernel configs.
326
327GCC 5
328-----
329
330The GCC 4.4 compiler has been retired.  It has been replaced by a GCC 5.1.
331The following make.conf variables no longer work: NO_GCC44, NO_OBJC, and
332NO_CXX.  The latter was never documented and the latest versions of GCC are
333partially written in C++ so a C++ compiler is no longer optional.  In
334practical terms it has not been optional for many years as other base
335components are also written in C++.  The resource savings by avoiding
336building Objective-C compiler is so small, the complexity added by NO_OBJC
337internally was deemed a bad tradeoff so that is the reason for its removal.
338Also note that no "info" pages are installed with GCC 5.  After this entry
339was originally written, all info pages were removed from DragonFly.
340
341GCC 5.1 has been designated as the primary compiler.  As such, there is a
342new make.conf variable, NO_ALTCOMPILER.  It will block the rebuilding of
343the designated secondary compiler, GCC 4.7.  However, while DPorts
344primarily uses GCC 5 to build ports now, it still uses GCC 4.7 as well, so
345if building ports from source is desired, don't block building of the
346secondary compiler.

350+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
351
352SMP AND DEVICE_POLLING OPTIONS MADE UNKNOWN
353-------------------------------------------
354
355DEVICE_POLLING was replaced by IFPOLL_ENABLE and the former SMP code is
356the default now (even on single-core systems), both for, like, 21 months.
357We kept the options around as no-ops as a convenience, to allow people
358using the same config for the then current release and the then current
359master. That period is now over, so any configs still having those
360options have to be adjusted.
361
362SYSVIPC SYSCALLS MADE NON-OPTIONAL
363----------------------------------
364
365The code related to the SYSVMSG, SYSVSEM and SYSVSHM kernel options is
366now compiled in by default. The options are no-ops for now.
367
368DEFAULT DRIVER CHANGED FOR LSI "THUNDERBOLT" SERIES RAID CONTROLLERS
369--------------------------------------------------------------------
370
371The default driver for those controllers is now mrsas(4) due to reports
372of file system corruption using the mfi(4) driver. The whole issue (and
373how to deal with potential problems when switching) was explained here:
374
375http://lists.dragonflybsd.org/pipermail/users/2014-July/128703.html
376
377A tunable is provided for letting those controllers still attach via
378the mfi(4) driver, hw.mrsas.mfi_enable (see mrsas(4) manual page).
379
380OLDER NETWORK DRIVERS MOVED TO I386 ONLY
381----------------------------------------
382
383The following drivers have been made i386 only: ed(4), sr(4), ng_sync_ar
384and ng_sync_sr. ed(4) used to be in X86_64_GENERIC, so it has to be
385removed in kernel configs derived from X86_64_GENERIC.

390
391UPDATE FROM MOST RECENT 3.6
392---------------------------
393
394Versions of 3.6 built before June 25th have a bug where installworld might
395crash during installation of the new initrd.  Upgrade to the latest version
396of 3.6 before updating to 3.8 or later.
397
398ATM, IPX, NCP AND NWFS SUPPORT DROPPED
399--------------------------------------
400
401Support for the IPX and NCP network protocols and for mouting NetWare
402file systems has been dropped. Dito for ATM protocol support.
403
404INITRD IMAGES NOW INSTALLED BY DEFAULT
405--------------------------------------
406
407An initial ramdisk image is now installed in /boot/kernel/initrd.img.gz
408
409Older images installed under the file name of initrd.img will be removed
410automatically by the make upgrade process.
411
412USB4BSD IS NOW THE DEFAULT USB STACK
413------------------------------------
414
415To get back to the old stack, put "WANT_OLDUSB=yes" in /etc/make.conf and
416replace "device usb" with "device oldusb" in the kernel configuration.
417
418MORE ISA SUPPORT DROPPED
419------------------------
420
421ISA support has been dropped from the following drivers: adv(4), an(4),
422ar(4), cs(4), digi(4), ed(4), ep(4), ex(4), fe(4), lnc(4), sbni(4),
423si(4), sn(4), and stg(4).

430----------
431
432Installed third-party software (dports) will have to be rebuilt after upgrade,
433or reinstalled from binary packages.
434
435UPDATING FROM 3.4 TO 3.6
436------------------------
437
438This only applies for this specific upgrade due to locale changes; it is
439not needed for upgrades after 3.6.  Please update in this order:
440
441make buildworld
442make buildkernel
443make installworld
444make installkernel
445*reboot*
446make upgrade

451CYRIX OPTIONS REMOVED
452---------------------
453
454The following Cyrix related options have been removed: CPU_BTB_EN,
455CPU_CYRIX_NO_LOCK, CPU_DIRECT_MAPPED_CACHE, CPU_DISABLE_5X86_LSSER,
456CPU_FASTER_5X86_FPU, CPU_IORT, CPU_LOOP_EN, CPU_RSTK_EN, CPU_SUSP_HLT,

468COMPAT_SUNOS OPTION REMOVED
469---------------------------
470
471The COMPAT_SUNOS option has been removed. It was meant to provide binary
472compatibility with SunOS 4.x for the sparc32 port of 4.4BSD.
473
474ISA SOUND CARD SUPPORT REMOVED
475------------------------------
476
477The following modules have been removed (all for ISA sound cards):
478snd_ad1816.ko, snd_ess.ko, snd_mss.ko, snd_sb8.ko, snd_sb16.ko, snd_sbc.ko
479
480GCC 4.7
481-------
482
483DragonFly has switched base compilers.  GCC 4.7 is now the default
484compiler and GCC 4.4 is the alternative compiler.  The "NO_GCC47" make
485variable ceases to work now.
486
487Users who wish to build only GCC 4.7 have to use NO_GCC44 in the
488/etc/make.conf to prohibit GCC 4.4 from building.  However, using it is
489highly discouraged.  There are a few packages in pkgsrc that do not build
490with GCC 4.7 and the new "DPorts" system uses GCC 4.4 by default.  At
491this time, it is recommended to keep both compilers on the base system.
492
493SMP OPTION REMOVED
494------------------
495
496The SMP kernel option has been made a no-op. All kernels now feature SMP
497support. If you have 'options SMP' in your kernel config, you can as well
498remove it.
499
500DEVICE_POLLING OPTION REPLACED BY IFPOLL_ENABLE OPTION, KTR_POLLING REMOVED
501---------------------------------------------------------------------------
502
503The DEVICE_POLLING kernel option has been made a no-op and it has been
504replaced by IFPOLL_ENABLE.  If you have 'options DEVICE_POLLING' in your
505kernel config, you need to change it to IFPOLL_ENABLE.
506
507Also, the KTR_POLLING kernel option has been removed, so it must be
508removed from kernel configs that have it.
509
510BUSLOGIC, CYCLADES AND STALLION ISA SUPPORT REMOVED
511---------------------------------------------------
512
513The bt(4) driver for Buslogic SCSI adapters has been made PCI only. ISA
514cards will no longer be detected.
515
516The same has been done for Stallion multiport serial controllers. stli(4)
517has been completely removed (along with the stlload(8) and stlstty(8)
518utilities) and stl(4) was changed to support only PCI cards. Similarly,
519ISA support was removed from cy(4) too. All these drivers are i386 only.
520
521COMPAT_OLDISA OPTION GONE
522-------------------------
523
524The i386 specific COMPAT_OLDISA kernel option has been removed, since
525nothing needs it anymore.
526

530
531APIC_IO OPTION REMOVED
532----------------------
533
534The APIC_IO kernel option is no longer accepted after having been without
535effect for a while. The hw.ioapic_enable tunable now serves its purpose.
536If you have 'options APIC_IO' in your kernel config, you'll have to
537remove it.
538
539WATCHDOG_ENABLE & HW_WDOG OPTIONS REMOVED
540-----------------------------------------
541
542The wdog framework is now compiled into our kernels by default, so the
543options are no longer needed.
544
545DOSCMD(1) REMOVED
546-----------------
547
548doscmd(1) has been removed. It was i386 only. The doscmd(1) specific
549NO_X make.conf option was removed too.
550
551GCC 4.7
552-------
553
554GCC 4.7 has been brought in and replaces GCC 4.1 as DragonFly's non-
555default compiler in base (default is still GCC 4.4).
556
557Users who wish to build only GCC 4.4 have to replace NO_GCC41 with
558NO_GCC47 in /etc/make.conf.
559
560USB4BSD
561-------
562
563A new USB stack (from FreeBSD) has been brought in. The following
564modules have been ported so far: usb, uhci, ohci, ehci, xhci, umass,
565usfs, uether, if_axe, if_udav, ukbd, ums, uep, uhid, usb_quirk,
566and uaudio.
567
568It is not yet the default. To activate it, WANT_USB4BSD=yes has to
569be put in make.conf and device "usb4bsd" (quotes needed) has to
570replace device usb in the kernel config. After that, a full
571build/install/upgrade cycle is needed.
572
573Note that this is experimental and incomplete, but we are interested
574in hearing about issues with it, of course.
575
576ISA SUPPORT REMOVED FROM AIC-6260/6360 DRIVER
577---------------------------------------------
578
579ISA adapter support was dropped from the aic(4) driver.

585SEVERAL ISA DRIVERS REMOVED
586---------------------------
587
588The following ISA only drivers have been removed along with a couple of
589associated userland tools:
590
591aha(4)
592asc(4) & sasc(1)
593ctx
594dgb(4)
595el(4)
596gpib
597gsc(4) & sgsc(1)
598ie(4)
599labpc(4)
600le(4)
601mse(4)
602rc(4)
603rdp(4)
604spigot
605tw(4) & xten(1) & xtend(8)
606wl(4) & wlconfig(8)
607wt(4)
608
609Note that two of these drivers (aha(4) and ie(4)) are in our GENERIC
610config and one (aha(4)) is in our X86_64_GENERIC kernel configuration
611file.
612
613If buildkernel complains about any of these drivers, just remove them
614from your kernel configuration.
615
616BINUTILS 2.20
617-------------
618Binutils 2.20 has been removed in favor of Binutils 2.22.  The accepted
619values of BINUTILSVERS are now binutils221 and binutils222 (default).
620
621BUILDWORLD/-KERNEL PARALLELIZATION WORK
622---------------------------------------
623Due to changes in the way we build with more than one make job, you
624will have to update install(1) and mkdir(1) prior to buildworld if you
625want to build with 'make -j':
626
627cd /usr/src/usr.bin/xinstall; make; make install; make clean
628cd /usr/src/bin/mkdir; make; make install; make clean
629
630DMA(8) UPGRADE
631--------------
632dma(8) has been upgraded to v0.7 which no longer supports the
633/etc/dma/virtusertable. Some of its functionality has been replaced
634with the MASQUERADE keyword and the EMAIL environment variable (see
635the dma(8) manual page).

640
641GCC 4.4 & BINUTILS 2.21
642-----------------------
643
644GCC 4.4 has been made DragonFly's default compiler and Binutils 2.21 has
645been made DragonFly's default Binutils.
646
647That means that any settings that set CCVER to 'gcc44' are not needed
648anymore. Instead, CCVER can be set to 'gcc41' to go back to using
649GCC 4.1.
650
651It also means that 'binutils221' as a value for BINUTILSVER has no
652effect anymore. 2.17 has been removed and 'binutils220' is available
653as an option.
654
655The NO_GCC44 option has been removed and will not affect the build
656anymore. There is now a NO_GCC41 option that will prevent GCC 4.1 from
657building in a similar fashion.
658
659Note that you must do a full buildworld/buildkernel for upgrading.
660
661pkg_radd settings
662-----------------
663
664The config file for pkg_radd has moved from /etc/settings.conf to
665/etc/pkg_radd.conf.  Save the contents of settings.conf before upgrading
666if this is needed.  This warning only applies if /etc/settings.conf
667exists.  pkg_radd will continue to work with defaults.

674OpenSSL
675--------
676
677OpenSSL has been upgraded, and SHLIB_MAJOR was bumped for libssh and libcrypto.
678This shouldn't break any 3rd-party software, but you'll need to recompile your
6793rd-party software if you want it to link against the new version of OpenSSL.
680
681Loader
682-------
683
684A new loader (dloader) has been added which better handles booting from
685multiple kernel/module versions.
686
687To upgrade (Only for this upgrade, for post 2.8 upgrades see GENERAL below)
688
689	cd /usr/src
690	make buildworld
691	make installworld
692	make upgrade
693	make buildkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
694	make installkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
695
696Note that you must installworld and run the 'upgrade' target before
697installing the new kernel.
698
699BIND
700-----
701
702BIND has been removed from the base system.  The ldns and drill tools have
703been added for basic functionality.  Use 'drill' where you would normally
704use nslookup or dig, or install BIND from pkgsrc.  It's available as
705net/bind95, net/bind96, or net/bind97 as of this writing.
706
707This only affects older systems upgrading to 2.8.  New 2.8+ installs
708include BIND as a pkgsrc package.

710+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
711+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY ON AN EXISTING DRAGONFLY SYSTEM		+
712+				GENERAL					+
713+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
714
715Instructions on how to obtain and maintain DragonFly source code using git
716are in the development(7) manual page.
717
718To upgrade a DragonFly system from sources you run the following sequence:
719
720	cd /usr/src
721	make buildworld
722	make buildkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
723	make installkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
724	make installworld
725
726You will also want to run the 'upgrade' target to upgrade your /etc and the
727rest of your system.  The upgrade target is aware of stale files created by
728older DragonFly installations and should delete them automatically.
729
730	make upgrade
731
732See the build(7) manual page for further information.
733
734Once you've done a full build of the world and kernel you can do incremental
735upgrades of either by using the 'quickworld' and 'quickkernel' targets
736instead of 'buildworld' and 'buildkernel'.  If you have any problems with
737the quick targets, try updating your repo first, and then a full buildworld
738and buildkernel as shown above, before asking for help.
739
740+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
741+         UPGRADING FROM DRAGONFLY <= 2.0 TO DRAGONFLY >= 2.1		+
742+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
743
744In 2.1 kernel and modules has moved to boot directory.  For most cases
745this is handled automatically by 'make upgrade'.  A few cases needs manual
746intervention:
747
748 * When installing a kernel without first doing a make buildworld,
749   installworld and upgrade to the same DESTDIR as kernel:
750   make DESTDIR/boot directory and move kernel and modules into this boot
751   directory; also move kernel.old and modules.old.
752   Typical example is vkernel(7), use (no modules used):
753
754	cd /var/vkernel
755	mkdir boot
756	chflags noschg kernel
757	mv kernel kernel.old boot
758	chflags schg boot/kernel
759
760 * When using a boot-only partition, /boot/loader.rc needs to be edited:
761   delete occurrences of '/boot/'.
762   These occurences can normally be deleted in any case, see loader(8).
763
764+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
765+         UPGRADING FROM DRAGONFLY <= 1.8 TO DRAGONFLY >= 1.9		+
766+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
767
768In 1.9 major changes to the disk management infrastructure have taken
769place.  make upgrade may not catch all of your disk devices in /dev,
770so after upgrading be sure to cd /dev; ./MAKEDEV <blah> where <blah>
771are all of your disk devices.  HOWEVER, from late 2.3 on we run devfs
772and MAKEDEV no longer exists.
773
774The biggest changes in 1.9 are:
775
776(1) That whole-slice devices such as da0s1 no longer share the same device
777    id as partition c devices such as da0s1c.
778
779(2) The whole-disk device (e.g. da0) is full raw access to the disk,
780    with no snooping or reserved sectors.  Consequently you cannot run
781    disklabel on this device.  Instead you must run disklabel on a
782    whole-slice device.
783
784(3) The 'compatibility' partitions now use slice 0 in the device name,
785    so instead of da0a you must specify da0s0a.  Also, as per (1) above,
786    accessing the disklabel for the compatibility partitions must be
787    done via slice 0 (da0s0).
788
789(4) Many device drivers that used to fake up labels, such as CD, ACD, VN,
790    and CCD now run through the disk management layer and are assigned
791    real disk management devices.   VN and CCD in particular do not usually
792    use a MBR and disklabels must be accessed through the compatibility
793    slice 0.  Your /etc/ccd.conf file still specifies 'ccd0', though, you
794    don't name it 'ccd0s0' in the config file.
795
796Generally speaking, you have to get used to running fdisk and disklabel on
797the correctly specified device names.  A lot of the wiggle, such as running
798disklabel on a partition, has been removed.

804> Kerberos IV
805-------------
806
807Kerberos IV (eBones) was removed from the tree, please consider moving to
808Kerberos 5 (Heimdal).
809
810> Package Management System
811---------------------------
812
813Starting with the 1.4 release, DragonFly uses NetBSD's pkgsrc package
814management system.  The necessary tools to build and maintain packages
815are provided in /usr/pkg/bin and /usr/pkg/sbin.  Make sure that these
816directories are in your PATH variable.
817
818In order to obtain a reasonably current snapshot of the pkgsrc tree, use
819the tarball from NetBSD:
820
821	fetch -o /tmp/pkgsrc.tar.gz ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc.tar.gz
822	cd /usr; tar -xzf /tmp/pkgsrc.tar.gz; chown -R root:wheel pkgsrc
823
824This tree can then be kept up to date with cvs update:
825
826	cd /usr/pkgsrc; cvs up
827
828NOTE! If you upgraded from a pre-1.4 system to 1.4 or later, you need to
829build and install the pkgsrc bootstrap manually:
830
831	cd /usr/pkgsrc/bootstrap
832	./bootstrap --pkgdbdir /var/db/pkg --prefix /usr/pkg

839
840The compatibility shims for the build environment have been removed, you
841have to update to DragonFly 1.2 release branch first.
842
843The default PAM configuration has moved from /etc/pam.conf to /etc/pam.d/.
844The existing configuration can be converted using /etc/pam.d/convert.sh.
845Entries in /etc/pam.d/ override entries in /etc/pam.conf. In addition
846the pam_skey.so module was retired, you have to remove it manually from
847your configuration, when you convert it.
848
849> Required user and group IDs when upgrading from either FreeBSD or DragonFly
850---------------------
851
852The following users may be missing from your password file.  Use vipw and
853add any that are missing:
854
855smmsp:*:25:25::0:0:Sendmail Submission User:/var/spool/clientmqueue:/sbin/nologin
856_pflogd:*:64:64::0:0:pflogd privsep user:/var/empty:/sbin/nologin
857
858The following groups may be missing from your group file.  Use vi /etc/group
859and add any that are missing:

863_pflogd:*:64:
864
865
866> Upgrading to DragonFly from FreeBSD
867---------------------
868
869You can build the DragonFly world and DragonFly kernels on a FreeBSD-4.x or
870FreeBSD-5.x machine and then install DragonFly over FreeBSD, replacing
871FreeBSD.  Note that the DragonFly buildworld target does not try to reuse
872make depend information, it starts from scratch, so no pre-cleaning of the
873object hierarchy is necessary.
874
875	# get the CVS repository (it is placed in /home/dcvs, 500MB).
876	# Please use the -h option and a mirror site to pull the
877	# initial repository, but feel free to use the main repository
878	# machine to pull updates.
879	cvsup /usr/share/examples/cvsup/DragonFly-cvs-supfile
880	# install the source from the CVS hierarchy (remove preexisting
881	# FreeBSD src first) (500MB)
882	cd /usr
883	rm -rf src
884	cvs -R -d /home/dcvs checkout -P src
885
886	# build it (500MB used in /usr/obj)
887	#
888	cd /usr/src
889	make buildworld
890	make buildkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
891
892Once you have built DragonFly you have to install it over FreeBSD.  Since
893DragonFly does not track changes made by FreeBSD to its include file
894hierarchy and include file pollution can cause all sorts of unexpected
895compilation issues to come up, it is best to wipe your include hierarchy
896prior to installing DragonFly.  Note that you should not wipe any installed
897FreeBSD header files or binaries until after you have successfully completed
898the build steps above.
899
900	rm -rf /usr/include
901	mkdir /usr/include
902	make installkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
903	make installworld
904
905Then you need to upgrade your system.  DragonFly's 'make upgrade' target
906will unconditionally upgrade the /etc files that sysops do not usually
907mess around with, such as the files in /etc/rc.d.  It will also remove any
908obsolete files such as utilities and manpages that have been removed from
909the system since the version you're coming from.  If you are unsure we
910recommend that you make a backup of at least your /etc before applying
911this step.  Note that DragonFly's RC system is basically RCNG from
912FreeBSD-5, but there are some differences in the contents of the RC files.
913
914	make upgrade
915
916NOTE! Never do a 'make upgrade' before 'make installworld' has been run.
917Doing so might leave your system in an unusable state.
918
919Finally we recommend that you do an 'ls -lta BLAH' for /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin,
920/usr/bin, and /usr/lib, and remove any stale files that you find.  Please
921report these files to the DragonFly developers so that they can be added to
922the 'upgrade' target.
923
924
