12+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 5.0 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
13+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
14
15BOOTSTRAPPING LIMITED FROM PRE 4.4
16----------------------------------
17
18Upgrading to 5.1 and later versions now require at least 4.4 in
19preparations for upcoming base compilers updates.
20
21
22IF_PPP AND PPPD REMOVED
23-----------------------
24
25It has been replaced by "user ppp", i.e. ppp(8) and tun(4). It had
26already been removed from our default kernel configuration before 5.0,
27so only people with custom configurations based on earlier X86_64_GENERIC
28will have to remove it manually.
29
30+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
31+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 4.8 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
32+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
33
34FFS_ROOT OPTION DISABLED
35------------------------
36
37The FFS_ROOT option has been made a no-op and will be completely removed
38at some point in the future. Users with a custom kernel configuration
39can remove this option from it now.
40
41+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
42+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 4.6 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
43+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
44
45AHC, AHD, AIC, NCV, NSP AND STG DRIVERS REMOVED
46-----------------------------------------------
47
48They were all in our X86_64_GENERIC kernel configuration file, along with
49the AHC_REG_PRETTY_PRINT and AHD_REG_PRETTY_PRINT options, so any custom
50configuration files derived from it need adjustment.
51
52PORTAL FILE SYSTEM REMOVED
53--------------------------
54
55It has been broken for a long time now.
56
57BINUTILS 2.27 REPLACES 2.24, PRIMARY
58------------------------------------
59
60The oldest of the two versions of Binutils, version 2.24, was removed
61and replaced with Binutils 2.27.  It becomes the primary version version
62of binutils and version 2.25 becomes the alternate.
63
64The accepted values of BINUTILSVER are now "binutils227" (default) and
65"binutils225".  The building of Binutils 2.25 can be prevented by setting
66NO_ALTBINUTILS=yes in make.conf.
67
68COMPAT_43 KERNEL OPTION REMOVED
69-------------------------------
70
71It was commented out in our default configs for several years now, but
72might still be present in custom configs created before Nov. 2011.
73
74OPENSSL REMOVED
75---------------
76
77OpenSSL has been removed from base and replaced with a private version of
78LibreSSL.  The previously installed OpenSSL libraries, headers, and man
79pages will remain on the system unless the "make upgrade" command is
80specifically instructed to remove them.  To do this, define
81REMOVE_OPENSSL_FILES for the upgrade command, e.g.
82"make upgrade REMOVE_OPENSSL_FILES=yes"
83
8428-Oct-2016: openssl has been replaced by ressl.  It is recommended that any
85stale OpenSSL files be removed to avoid configuration scripts from using
86the stale and potentially vulnerable version, but all binaries that are
87dynamically linked to the OpenSSL libraries should be rebuilt first to
88avoid breakage.
89
90OPENSSH HPN REMOVED
91-------------------
92
93It has become too cumbersome to maintain HPN patches in OpenSSH in base.
94To use OpenSSH in base remove HPN config, if you have added it.
95Check files below for HPN config, see a few lines below.
96  /etc/ssh/ssh_config, /etc/ssh/sshd_config, ~/.ssh/config
97sshd(8) will fail to start if HPN config is used.
98
99NOTE: HPN config in sshd_config will prohibit remote access to host using ssh.
100
101HPN config:
102HPNDisabled
103HPNBufferSize
104TcpRcvBuf
105TcpRcvBufPoll
106NoneEnabled
107NoneSwitch
108cipher MTR-AES-CTR
109cipher NONE
110
111OpenSSH HPN is a patch set to OpenSSH providing higher performance under some
112circumstances, especially for networking.
113If HPN functionality is needed, install security/openssh from dports.
114
115CS, EX AND VX DRIVERS REMOVED
116-----------------------------
117
118The cs(4), ex(4) and vx(4) drivers have been removed. They were very
119old and its doubtful they ever worked properly in x86_64 but they were
120in X86_64_GENERIC, so custom configurations derived from it have to be
121adjusted.
122
123+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
124+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 4.4 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
125+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
126
127AMD REMOVED
128-----------
129
130The am-utils automounter suite has been removed. It stopped working
131at some point and was never fixed. autofs(5) and the associated
132userland has been brought in from FreeBSD and replaces it.
133
134AN DRIVER REMOVED
135-----------------
136
137The an(4) driver has been removed. It was in the X86_64_GENERIC kernel
138config file, so any configurations derived from it have to be adjusted.
139
140/DEV/DRI GROUP CHANGED
141----------------------
142
143The default group assigned to /dev/dri entries has been changed
144from 'wheel' to 'video' with the id of '44'. If you want to have
145access to the dri devices please add yourself to the video group
146with:
147
148# pw groupmod video -m $USER
149
150+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
151+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 4.2 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
152+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
153
154DSCHED REMOVED
155--------------
156
157dsched(4) has been removed and one of its kernel options, DSCHED_FQ, was
158in our default kernel config file. So the DSCHED_FQ option has been turned
159into a no-op for now and can be removed from custom configurations.
160
161EST DRIVER REMOVED, COMPILE_ET AND LIBCOM_ERR TOO
162-------------------------------------------------
163
164The est(4) driver has been removed. All CPUs it supported (except one)
165were 32 bits only. Those who are still using the Core 2 Duo T7500 should
166report back if there are any issues with this CPU and our regular ACPI
167P-state support.
168
169Also, compile_et(1) and com_err(3) have been removed as well. They
170should have been removed along with kerberos support, back in 2009.
171
172SEVERAL LOCALES RENAMED
173-----------------------
174
175Several locales were using obsolete and misleading names, and thus have
176been adjusted to current standards. Any users of the following locales
177need to select alternates:
178
179DFLY 4.2 locale            DFLY 4.4 alterative locale
180---------------            ------------------------------------

201
202BINUTILS 2.25 REPLACES 2.22, PRIMARY
203------------------------------------
204
205The oldest of the two versions of Binutils, version 2.22, was removed
206and replaced with Binutils 2.25.  It becomes the primary version version
207of binutils and version 2.24 becomes the alternate.  There are 8 current
208CVE written against 2.24, so for security reasons version 2.25 should
209always be used.
210
211The accepted values of BINUTILSVER are now "binutils225" (default) and
212"binutils224".  The building of Binutils 2.24 can be prevented by setting
213NO_ALTBINUTILS=yes in make.conf.
214
215LOADER OPTIONS CHANGED
216----------------------
217
218Right after the development branch started, the Fred art accompanying the
219loader menu was improved.  The line between Fred and the menu was removed
220by default (but can optionally be returned) and the placement shifted as
221a result.  The drawing was improved, and the colored version was improved,
222changing the eyes and wing color from white to red.  A new color version
223of Fred was added, one with a blue scheme.
224
225The loader menu defaults have changed since release 4.0:  The vertical
226line was removed, the loader is displayed in color by default*, and the
227blue scheme is used.
228
229The loader.conf changes are:
230loader_color:   option has been removed
231loader_plain:   option has been added, it changed menu to monochrome
232fred_is_red:    changes color scheme from blue to red
233fred_is_blue:   option existed only on 4.1, it has been removed
234fred_separated: Adds line between Fred and menu (as seen previously)
235
236* If loader.conf defines "console" as "comconsole" or "console" is defined
237  in the environment as "comconsole" then color will not be displayed,
238  even if loader_plain value is "NO".
239
240SENDMAIL REMOVED FROM BASE
241--------------------------
242
243The only Mail Transfer Agent provided now is DragonFly Mail Agent (dma).
244If the system being upgraded is still configured to use the sendmail
245binaries from base, the "make upgrade" command will fail.
246
247The administrator must change /etc/mail/mailer.conf to switch the
248mailwrapper to dma or a DPorts-based MTA prior to running the upgrade
249command that permanently removes sendmail executables and could
250potentially break a running mail server.
251
252Refer: http://www.dragonflybsd.com/docs/docs/newhandbook/mta/ for
253detailed instructions on how to configure the MTA selection.
254
255_KPOSIX_VERSION and P1003_1B OPTIONS REMOVED
256--------------------------------------------
257
258The _KPOSIX_VERSION and P1003_1B kernel options have been changed to
259no-ops. They can be removed from custom kernel configurations.
260
261SOUND SYSTEM UPDATED FROM FreeBSD 11-CURRENT
262--------------------------------------------
263
264Many more sound devices may be detected.
265
266If the default device choosen isn't to your liking, setting the sysctl
267hw.snd.default_unit to a different number will change it.
268
269SCTP SUPPORT DROPPED
270--------------------
271
272Support for the SCTP protocol has been removed.
273
274OLD USB DRIVERS REMOVED
275-----------------------
276
277The old USB stack, along with the kernel config option "device oldusb"
278and the make.conf variable "WANT_OLDUSB" have been removed. This means
279that for custom kernel configuration files which were derived from a
280GENERIC or X86_64_GENERIC file prior to making the usb4bsd stack default,
281various (old USB stack specific) devices will now complain about being
282unknown:
283
284  * oldusb	(obviously)
285  * natausb	(not yet ported to usb4bsd)
286  * rue		(not yet ported to usb4bsd)
287  * ugen	(no longer needed in usb4bsd)
288  * urio	(not yet ported to usb4bsd)
289  * uscanner	(no longer needed in usb4bsd)
290
291They should be removed or commented out in such custom kernel configs.
292
293GCC 5
294-----
295
296The GCC 4.4 compiler has been retired.  It has been replaced by a GCC 5.1.
297The following make.conf variables no longer work: NO_GCC44, NO_OBJC, and
298NO_CXX.  The latter was never documented and the latest versions of GCC are
299partially written in C++ so a C++ compiler is no longer optional.  In
300practical terms it has not been optional for many years as other base
301components are also written in C++.  The resource savings by avoiding
302building Objective-C compiler is so small, the complexity added by NO_OBJC
303internally was deemed a bad tradeoff so that is the reason for its removal.
304Also note that no "info" pages are installed with GCC 5.  After this entry
305was originally written, all info pages were removed from DragonFly.
306
307GCC 5.1 has been designated as the primary compiler.  As such, there is a
308new make.conf variable, NO_ALTCOMPILER.  It will block the rebuilding of
309the designated secondary compiler, GCC 4.7.  However, while DPorts
310primarily uses GCC 5 to build ports now, it still uses GCC 4.7 as well, so
311if building ports from source is desired, don't block building of the
312secondary compiler.
313

315+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 3.8 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
316+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
317
318SMP AND DEVICE_POLLING OPTIONS MADE UNKNOWN
319-------------------------------------------
320
321DEVICE_POLLING was replaced by IFPOLL_ENABLE and the former SMP code is
322the default now (even on single-core systems), both for, like, 21 months.
323We kept the options around as no-ops as a convenience, to allow people
324using the same config for the then current release and the then current
325master. That period is now over, so any configs still having those
326options have to be adjusted.
327
328SYSVIPC SYSCALLS MADE NON-OPTIONAL
329----------------------------------
330
331The code related to the SYSVMSG, SYSVSEM and SYSVSHM kernel options is
332now compiled in by default. The options are no-ops for now.
333
334DEFAULT DRIVER CHANGED FOR LSI "THUNDERBOLT" SERIES RAID CONTROLLERS
335--------------------------------------------------------------------
336
337The default driver for those controllers is now mrsas(4) due to reports
338of file system corruption using the mfi(4) driver. The whole issue (and
339how to deal with potential problems when switching) was explained here:
340
341http://lists.dragonflybsd.org/pipermail/users/2014-July/128703.html
342
343A tunable is provided for letting those controllers still attach via
344the mfi(4) driver, hw.mrsas.mfi_enable (see mrsas(4) manual page).
345
346OLDER NETWORK DRIVERS MOVED TO I386 ONLY
347----------------------------------------
348
349The following drivers have been made i386 only: ed(4), sr(4), ng_sync_ar
350and ng_sync_sr. ed(4) used to be in X86_64_GENERIC, so it has to be
351removed in kernel configs derived from X86_64_GENERIC.
352
353+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
354+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 3.6 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
355+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
356
357UPDATE FROM MOST RECENT 3.6
358---------------------------
359
360Versions of 3.6 built before June 25th have a bug where installworld might
361crash during installation of the new initrd.  Upgrade to the latest version
362of 3.6 before updating to 3.8 or later.
363
364ATM, IPX, NCP AND NWFS SUPPORT DROPPED
365--------------------------------------
366
367Support for the IPX and NCP network protocols and for mouting NetWare
368file systems has been dropped. Dito for ATM protocol support.
369
370INITRD IMAGES NOW INSTALLED BY DEFAULT
371--------------------------------------
372
373An initial ramdisk image is now installed in /boot/kernel/initrd.img.gz
374
375Older images installed under the file name of initrd.img will be removed
376automatically by the make upgrade process.
377
378USB4BSD IS NOW THE DEFAULT USB STACK
379------------------------------------
380
381To get back to the old stack, put "WANT_OLDUSB=yes" in /etc/make.conf and
382replace "device usb" with "device oldusb" in the kernel configuration.
383
384MORE ISA SUPPORT DROPPED
385------------------------
386
387ISA support has been dropped from the following drivers: adv(4), an(4),
388ar(4), cs(4), digi(4), ed(4), ep(4), ex(4), fe(4), lnc(4), sbni(4),
389si(4), sn(4), and stg(4).

394
395ABI CHANGE
396----------
397
398Installed third-party software (dports) will have to be rebuilt after upgrade,
399or reinstalled from binary packages.
400
401UPDATING FROM 3.4 TO 3.6
402------------------------
403
404This only applies for this specific upgrade due to locale changes; it is
405not needed for upgrades after 3.6.  Please update in this order:
406
407make buildworld
408make buildkernel
409make installworld
410make installkernel
411*reboot*
412make upgrade
413
414See this mailing list post for details:

416
417CYRIX OPTIONS REMOVED
418---------------------
419
420The following Cyrix related options have been removed: CPU_BTB_EN,
421CPU_CYRIX_NO_LOCK, CPU_DIRECT_MAPPED_CACHE, CPU_DISABLE_5X86_LSSER,
422CPU_FASTER_5X86_FPU, CPU_IORT, CPU_LOOP_EN, CPU_RSTK_EN, CPU_SUSP_HLT,
423CYRIX_CACHE_WORKS, and CYRIX_CACHE_REALLY_WORKS
424
425ISA SUPPORT REMOVED FROM RP(4)
426------------------------------
427
428ISA support has been removed from the rp(4) driver. It is now PCI only.
429

433
434COMPAT_SUNOS OPTION REMOVED
435---------------------------
436
437The COMPAT_SUNOS option has been removed. It was meant to provide binary
438compatibility with SunOS 4.x for the sparc32 port of 4.4BSD.
439
440ISA SOUND CARD SUPPORT REMOVED
441------------------------------
442
443The following modules have been removed (all for ISA sound cards):
444snd_ad1816.ko, snd_ess.ko, snd_mss.ko, snd_sb8.ko, snd_sb16.ko, snd_sbc.ko
445
446GCC 4.7
447-------
448
449DragonFly has switched base compilers.  GCC 4.7 is now the default
450compiler and GCC 4.4 is the alternative compiler.  The "NO_GCC47" make
451variable ceases to work now.
452
453Users who wish to build only GCC 4.7 have to use NO_GCC44 in the
454/etc/make.conf to prohibit GCC 4.4 from building.  However, using it is
455highly discouraged.  There are a few packages in pkgsrc that do not build
456with GCC 4.7 and the new "DPorts" system uses GCC 4.4 by default.  At
457this time, it is recommended to keep both compilers on the base system.
458
459SMP OPTION REMOVED
460------------------
461
462The SMP kernel option has been made a no-op. All kernels now feature SMP
463support. If you have 'options SMP' in your kernel config, you can as well
464remove it.
465
466DEVICE_POLLING OPTION REPLACED BY IFPOLL_ENABLE OPTION, KTR_POLLING REMOVED
467---------------------------------------------------------------------------
468
469The DEVICE_POLLING kernel option has been made a no-op and it has been
470replaced by IFPOLL_ENABLE.  If you have 'options DEVICE_POLLING' in your
471kernel config, you need to change it to IFPOLL_ENABLE.
472
473Also, the KTR_POLLING kernel option has been removed, so it must be
474removed from kernel configs that have it.
475
476BUSLOGIC, CYCLADES AND STALLION ISA SUPPORT REMOVED
477---------------------------------------------------
478
479The bt(4) driver for Buslogic SCSI adapters has been made PCI only. ISA
480cards will no longer be detected.
481
482The same has been done for Stallion multiport serial controllers. stli(4)
483has been completely removed (along with the stlload(8) and stlstty(8)
484utilities) and stl(4) was changed to support only PCI cards. Similarly,
485ISA support was removed from cy(4) too. All these drivers are i386 only.
486
487COMPAT_OLDISA OPTION GONE
488-------------------------
489
490The i386 specific COMPAT_OLDISA kernel option has been removed, since
491nothing needs it anymore.
492

495+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
496
497APIC_IO OPTION REMOVED
498----------------------
499
500The APIC_IO kernel option is no longer accepted after having been without
501effect for a while. The hw.ioapic_enable tunable now serves its purpose.
502If you have 'options APIC_IO' in your kernel config, you'll have to
503remove it.
504
505WATCHDOG_ENABLE & HW_WDOG OPTIONS REMOVED
506-----------------------------------------
507
508The wdog framework is now compiled into our kernels by default, so the
509options are no longer needed.
510
511DOSCMD(1) REMOVED
512-----------------
513
514doscmd(1) has been removed. It was i386 only. The doscmd(1) specific
515NO_X make.conf option was removed too.
516
517GCC 4.7
518-------
519
520GCC 4.7 has been brought in and replaces GCC 4.1 as DragonFly's non-
521default compiler in base (default is still GCC 4.4).
522
523Users who wish to build only GCC 4.4 have to replace NO_GCC41 with
524NO_GCC47 in /etc/make.conf.
525
526USB4BSD
527-------
528
529A new USB stack (from FreeBSD) has been brought in. The following
530modules have been ported so far: usb, uhci, ohci, ehci, xhci, umass,
531usfs, uether, if_axe, if_udav, ukbd, ums, uep, uhid, usb_quirk,
532and uaudio.
533
534It is not yet the default. To activate it, WANT_USB4BSD=yes has to
535be put in make.conf and device "usb4bsd" (quotes needed) has to
536replace device usb in the kernel config. After that, a full
537build/install/upgrade cycle is needed.
538
539Note that this is experimental and incomplete, but we are interested
540in hearing about issues with it, of course.

542ISA SUPPORT REMOVED FROM AIC-6260/6360 DRIVER

550
551SEVERAL ISA DRIVERS REMOVED
552---------------------------
553
554The following ISA only drivers have been removed along with a couple of
555associated userland tools:
556
557aha(4)
558asc(4) & sasc(1)
559ctx
560dgb(4)
561el(4)
562gpib
563gsc(4) & sgsc(1)
564ie(4)
565labpc(4)
566le(4)
567mse(4)
568rc(4)
569rdp(4)
570spigot
571tw(4) & xten(1) & xtend(8)
572wl(4) & wlconfig(8)
573wt(4)
574
575Note that two of these drivers (aha(4) and ie(4)) are in our GENERIC
576config and one (aha(4)) is in our X86_64_GENERIC kernel configuration
577file.
578
579If buildkernel complains about any of these drivers, just remove them
580from your kernel configuration.
581
582BINUTILS 2.20
583-------------
584Binutils 2.20 has been removed in favor of Binutils 2.22.  The accepted
585values of BINUTILSVERS are now binutils221 and binutils222 (default).
586
587BUILDWORLD/-KERNEL PARALLELIZATION WORK
588---------------------------------------
589Due to changes in the way we build with more than one make job, you
590will have to update install(1) and mkdir(1) prior to buildworld if you
591want to build with 'make -j':
592
593cd /usr/src/usr.bin/xinstall; make; make install; make clean
594cd /usr/src/bin/mkdir; make; make install; make clean
595
596DMA(8) UPGRADE
597--------------
598dma(8) has been upgraded to v0.7 which no longer supports the
599/etc/dma/virtusertable. Some of its functionality has been replaced
600with the MASQUERADE keyword and the EMAIL environment variable (see
601the dma(8) manual page).

606
607GCC 4.4 & BINUTILS 2.21
608-----------------------
609
610GCC 4.4 has been made DragonFly's default compiler and Binutils 2.21 has
611been made DragonFly's default Binutils.
612
613That means that any settings that set CCVER to 'gcc44' are not needed
614anymore. Instead, CCVER can be set to 'gcc41' to go back to using
615GCC 4.1.
616
617It also means that 'binutils221' as a value for BINUTILSVER has no
618effect anymore. 2.17 has been removed and 'binutils220' is available
619as an option.
620
621The NO_GCC44 option has been removed and will not affect the build
622anymore. There is now a NO_GCC41 option that will prevent GCC 4.1 from
623building in a similar fashion.
624
625Note that you must do a full buildworld/buildkernel for upgrading.
626
627pkg_radd settings
628-----------------
629
630The config file for pkg_radd has moved from /etc/settings.conf to
631/etc/pkg_radd.conf.  Save the contents of settings.conf before upgrading
632if this is needed.  This warning only applies if /etc/settings.conf
633exists.  pkg_radd will continue to work with defaults.

640OpenSSL
641--------
642
643OpenSSL has been upgraded, and SHLIB_MAJOR was bumped for libssh and libcrypto.
644This shouldn't break any 3rd-party software, but you'll need to recompile your
6453rd-party software if you want it to link against the new version of OpenSSL.
646
647Loader
648-------
649
650A new loader (dloader) has been added which better handles booting from
651multiple kernel/module versions.
652
653To upgrade (Only for this upgrade, for post 2.8 upgrades see GENERAL below)
654
655	cd /usr/src
656	make buildworld
657	make installworld
658	make upgrade
659	make buildkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
660	make installkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
661
662Note that you must installworld and run the 'upgrade' target before
663installing the new kernel.
664
665BIND
666-----
667
668BIND has been removed from the base system.  The ldns and drill tools have
669been added for basic functionality.  Use 'drill' where you would normally
670use nslookup or dig, or install BIND from pkgsrc.  It's available as
671net/bind95, net/bind96, or net/bind97 as of this writing.
672
673This only affects older systems upgrading to 2.8.  New 2.8+ installs
674include BIND as a pkgsrc package.

676+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
677+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY ON AN EXISTING DRAGONFLY SYSTEM		+
678+				GENERAL					+
679+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
680
681Instructions on how to obtain and maintain DragonFly source code using git
682are in the development(7) manual page.
683
684To upgrade a DragonFly system from sources you run the following sequence:
685
686	cd /usr/src
687	make buildworld
688	make buildkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
689	make installkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
690	make installworld
691
692You will also want to run the 'upgrade' target to upgrade your /etc and the
693rest of your system.  The upgrade target is aware of stale files created by
694older DragonFly installations and should delete them automatically.
695
696	make upgrade
697
698See the build(7) manual page for further information.
699
700Once you've done a full build of the world and kernel you can do incremental
701upgrades of either by using the 'quickworld' and 'quickkernel' targets
702instead of 'buildworld' and 'buildkernel'.  If you have any problems with
703the quick targets, try updating your repo first, and then a full buildworld
704and buildkernel as shown above, before asking for help.
705
706+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
707+         UPGRADING FROM DRAGONFLY <= 2.0 TO DRAGONFLY >= 2.1		+
708+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
709
710In 2.1 kernel and modules has moved to boot directory.  For most cases
711this is handled automatically by 'make upgrade'.  A few cases needs manual
712intervention:
713
714 * When installing a kernel without first doing a make buildworld,
715   installworld and upgrade to the same DESTDIR as kernel:
716   make DESTDIR/boot directory and move kernel and modules into this boot
717   directory; also move kernel.old and modules.old.
718   Typical example is vkernel(7), use (no modules used):
719
720	cd /var/vkernel
721	mkdir boot
722	chflags noschg kernel
723	mv kernel kernel.old boot
724	chflags schg boot/kernel
725
726 * When using a boot-only partition, /boot/loader.rc needs to be edited:
727   delete occurrences of '/boot/'.
728   These occurences can normally be deleted in any case, see loader(8).
729
730+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
731+         UPGRADING FROM DRAGONFLY <= 1.8 TO DRAGONFLY >= 1.9		+
732+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
733
734In 1.9 major changes to the disk management infrastructure have taken
735place.  make upgrade may not catch all of your disk devices in /dev,
736so after upgrading be sure to cd /dev; ./MAKEDEV <blah> where <blah>
737are all of your disk devices.  HOWEVER, from late 2.3 on we run devfs
738and MAKEDEV no longer exists.
739
740The biggest changes in 1.9 are:
741
742(1) That whole-slice devices such as da0s1 no longer share the same device
743    id as partition c devices such as da0s1c.
744
745(2) The whole-disk device (e.g. da0) is full raw access to the disk,
746    with no snooping or reserved sectors.  Consequently you cannot run
747    disklabel on this device.  Instead you must run disklabel on a
748    whole-slice device.
749
750(3) The 'compatibility' partitions now use slice 0 in the device name,
751    so instead of da0a you must specify da0s0a.  Also, as per (1) above,
752    accessing the disklabel for the compatibility partitions must be
753    done via slice 0 (da0s0).
754
755(4) Many device drivers that used to fake up labels, such as CD, ACD, VN,
756    and CCD now run through the disk management layer and are assigned
757    real disk management devices.   VN and CCD in particular do not usually
758    use a MBR and disklabels must be accessed through the compatibility
759    slice 0.  Your /etc/ccd.conf file still specifies 'ccd0', though, you
760    don't name it 'ccd0s0' in the config file.
761
762Generally speaking, you have to get used to running fdisk and disklabel on
763the correctly specified device names.  A lot of the wiggle, such as running
764disklabel on a partition, has been removed.

770> Kerberos IV
771-------------
772
773Kerberos IV (eBones) was removed from the tree, please consider moving to
774Kerberos 5 (Heimdal).
775
776> Package Management System
777---------------------------
778
779Starting with the 1.4 release, DragonFly uses NetBSD's pkgsrc package
780management system.  The necessary tools to build and maintain packages
781are provided in /usr/pkg/bin and /usr/pkg/sbin.  Make sure that these
782directories are in your PATH variable.
783
784In order to obtain a reasonably current snapshot of the pkgsrc tree, use
785the tarball from NetBSD:
786
787	fetch -o /tmp/pkgsrc.tar.gz ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc.tar.gz
788	cd /usr; tar -xzf /tmp/pkgsrc.tar.gz; chown -R root:wheel pkgsrc
789
790This tree can then be kept up to date with cvs update:
791
792	cd /usr/pkgsrc; cvs up
793
794NOTE! If you upgraded from a pre-1.4 system to 1.4 or later, you need to
795build and install the pkgsrc bootstrap manually:
796
797	cd /usr/pkgsrc/bootstrap
798	./bootstrap --pkgdbdir /var/db/pkg --prefix /usr/pkg

805
806The compatibility shims for the build environment have been removed, you
807have to update to DragonFly 1.2 release branch first.
808
809The default PAM configuration has moved from /etc/pam.conf to /etc/pam.d/.
810The existing configuration can be converted using /etc/pam.d/convert.sh.
811Entries in /etc/pam.d/ override entries in /etc/pam.conf. In addition
812the pam_skey.so module was retired, you have to remove it manually from
813your configuration, when you convert it.
814
815> Required user and group IDs when upgrading from either FreeBSD or DragonFly
816---------------------
817
818The following users may be missing from your password file.  Use vipw and
819add any that are missing:
820
821smmsp:*:25:25::0:0:Sendmail Submission User:/var/spool/clientmqueue:/sbin/nologin
822_pflogd:*:64:64::0:0:pflogd privsep user:/var/empty:/sbin/nologin
823
824The following groups may be missing from your group file.  Use vi /etc/group
825and add any that are missing:
826
827smmsp:*:25:

829_pflogd:*:64:
830
831
832> Upgrading to DragonFly from FreeBSD
833---------------------
834
835You can build the DragonFly world and DragonFly kernels on a FreeBSD-4.x or
836FreeBSD-5.x machine and then install DragonFly over FreeBSD, replacing
837FreeBSD.  Note that the DragonFly buildworld target does not try to reuse
838make depend information, it starts from scratch, so no pre-cleaning of the
839object hierarchy is necessary.
840
841	# get the CVS repository (it is placed in /home/dcvs, 500MB).
842	# Please use the -h option and a mirror site to pull the
843	# initial repository, but feel free to use the main repository
844	# machine to pull updates.
845	cvsup /usr/share/examples/cvsup/DragonFly-cvs-supfile
846	# install the source from the CVS hierarchy (remove preexisting
847	# FreeBSD src first) (500MB)
848	cd /usr
849	rm -rf src
850	cvs -R -d /home/dcvs checkout -P src
851
852	# build it (500MB used in /usr/obj)
853	#
854	cd /usr/src
855	make buildworld
856	make buildkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
857
858Once you have built DragonFly you have to install it over FreeBSD.  Since
859DragonFly does not track changes made by FreeBSD to its include file
860hierarchy and include file pollution can cause all sorts of unexpected
861compilation issues to come up, it is best to wipe your include hierarchy
862prior to installing DragonFly.  Note that you should not wipe any installed
863FreeBSD header files or binaries until after you have successfully completed
864the build steps above.
865
866	rm -rf /usr/include
867	mkdir /usr/include
868	make installkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
869	make installworld
870
871Then you need to upgrade your system.  DragonFly's 'make upgrade' target
872will unconditionally upgrade the /etc files that sysops do not usually
873mess around with, such as the files in /etc/rc.d.  It will also remove any
874obsolete files such as utilities and manpages that have been removed from
875the system since the version you're coming from.  If you are unsure we
876recommend that you make a backup of at least your /etc before applying
877this step.  Note that DragonFly's RC system is basically RCNG from
878FreeBSD-5, but there are some differences in the contents of the RC files.
879
880	make upgrade
881
882NOTE! Never do a 'make upgrade' before 'make installworld' has been run.
883Doing so might leave your system in an unusable state.
884
885Finally we recommend that you do an 'ls -lta BLAH' for /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin,
886/usr/bin, and /usr/lib, and remove any stale files that you find.  Please
887report these files to the DragonFly developers so that they can be added to
888the 'upgrade' target.
889
890
