   • http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/sys/kern/sys_socket.c rev 1.41 and 1.42

   • How much space is there in a socket buffer (so->so_snd or so->so_rcv)? This is problematical if the fields are unsigned, as the space might still be negative (cc > hiwat or mbcnt > mbmax). Should detect overflow and return 0.

5. c++filt Morphs
   • Used to segfault
   • obrien committed fix from upstream repo
6. It appears that BSD.local.dist, BSD.X11.dist, and BSD.X11-4.dist are installed but not used for anything
   • flz MAINTAINERS commit: these are for ports, and no longer maintained in src/ (will be removed)
7. tcp_syncache allocation bug (reqst00106055)
   • Attilio has committed my fix to RELENG_6
   • does not apply to later releases
8. devctl queue size limit
   • fixed by bsdimp in r196529
   • was a somewhat broken sysctl to turn off all devctl notifications

   • See also kern/130107 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/130107

9. Add file to store info on selected timezone (reqst00080218)

10. procfs locking (reqst00063533)

    • http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=85137

    • http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2004-August/034061.html

    • has this occurred again on $WORKBSD post 5.3?
11. gcore on threaded apps
    • Contribute from $WORKBSD
    • In progress -- Attilio
12. IPv6 if_addr_mutex recursion

    • http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2008-March/084515.html

    • reqst00141355
    • believed fixed by bms and/or qingli
13. BTX real mode
    • Not sure what this point was, probably just a reminder to keep an eye out for jhb's work
14. bpf compat32

    • http://people.freebsd.org/~jhb/patches/bpf32.patch

    • should add i386 ifconfig support
    • kib is cleaning up and porting to head

      • http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=207194

      • http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=207195

      • and patch from pluknet
15. devfs panic
    • reqst00184017

    • devfs_close->_sx_xunlock->_mtx_lock_sleep

      • resolved with merge from stable/6
16. /dev/io does not play nicely with threaded apps
    • access control should apply to proc as a whole, but instead it has poorly defined per-thread behaviour
    • have to open /dev/io early on, before starting threads
    • behaviour is probably much more deterministic in post-KSE world

    • Related: http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=202097

    • Attilio has committed http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=207329

17. document new FIONWRITE, FIONSPACE (and all other ioctls) somewhere.

    • Obtained from NetBSD, breuffer committed as http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/207923

    • http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=116947 (patch from Tom Judge)

19. phk: I belive the askboot() panics if you type garbage, that's not fun. We should give it a specific "reboot" facility and not panic.
