- FreeBSD errata document. Unlike some of the other RELNOTESng
- files, this file should remain as a single SGML file, so that
- the dollar FreeBSD dollar header has a meaningful modification
- time. This file is all but useless without a datestamp on it,
- so we'll take some extra care to make sure it has one.
-
- (If we didn't do this, then the file with the datestamp might
- not be the one that received the last change in the document.)

- <para>In some releases prior to &release.current;, upgrading
- by using &man.freebsd-update.8; can fail. This issue has
- been fixed by a change in Errata Notice EN-12:01. For more
- information, see <ulink
- url="http://security.freebsd.org/advisories/FreeBSD-EN-12:01.freebsd-update.asc"></ulink></para>

- <para arch="amd64,i386">&os; &release.current; includes
- several changes to improve resource management of PCI
- devices. Some x86 machines may not boot or may have devices
- that no longer attach when using ACPI as a result of these
- changes. This can be worked around by setting a
- &man.loader.8; tunable
- <varname>debug.acpi.disabled</varname> to
- <literal>hostres</literal>. To do this, enter the following
- lines at the loader prompt:</para>
-
- <screen>set debug.acpi.disabled="hostres"
-boot</screen>
-
- <para>Or, put the following line into
- <filename>/boot/loader.conf</filename>:</para>

- <listitem>
- <para>A &man.devctl.4; event upon arrival of a &man.ugen.4;
- device has been changed. The event now includes
- <literal>ugen</literal> and <literal>cdev</literal>
- variables instead of <literal>device-name</literal>. This
- change can prevent the following &man.devd.8; rule which
- worked in a previous releases from working:</para>
-
- <programlisting>attach 0 {
- match "device-name" "ugen[0-9]+.[0-9]+";
- action "/path/to/script /dev/$device-name";

- mentioned that SSM (Source-Specific Multicast) MLDv2 now
- uses <literal>ALLOW_NEW_SOURCES</literal> and

- a join or a leave by default. This conforms RFC 4604,
- <quote>Using Internet Group Management Protocol Version 3
- (IGMPv3) and Multicast Listener Discovery Protocol Version 2
- (MLDv2) for Source-Specific Multicast</quote>. A new
- &man.sysctl.8; variable

- when the interface does not have a corresponding
- <varname>ifconfig_<replaceable>IF</replaceable>_ipv6</varname>
- variable. This problem will be fixed in the future
- releases. To work around this problem on &release.current;,
- add an

- line for each interface specified in

- <para>In &release.current; the &os; USB subsystem supports USB
- 3.0 by the &man.xhci.4; driver. However, a bug that could
- prevent it from working with a USB 3.0 hub has been found
- and fixed after the release date. This means
- &release.current; and prior do not work with a USB 3.0 hub.
- This problem has been fixed in HEAD and will be merged into
