* Updated the XBOX kernel to use the new nfe(4) driver obtained fromRink Springer2006-06-271-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | OpenBSD. This driver seems to give a small performance increase, and should lead to better maintainability in the future. The nForce Ethernet-specific hack in sys/i386/xbox/xbox.c is still required, judging from dev/nfe/if_nfe.c. The condition it hacks will almost certainly only occur on XBOX-es anyway, so it is best left there. Approved by: imp (mentor) Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=159997

* Retire NETSMBCRYPTO as a kernel option and make its functionalityYaroslav Tykhiy2006-03-051-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | enabled by default in NETSMB and smbfs.ko. With the most of modern SMB providers requiring encryption by default, there is little sense left in keeping the crypto part of NETSMB optional at the build time. This will also return smbfs.ko to its former properties users are rather accustomed to.

* Add delete-old and delete-old-libs targets:Alexander Leidinger2005-07-231-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - removes obsolete files/dirs or libraries. - works in interactive (default) and batch mode - respects DISTDIR - documented in UPDATING and build(7) The head of the file ObsoleteFiles.inc contains instructions how to add obsolete files/dirs/libs to the list. Obviously one should add obsolete files to this list, when he removes a file/dir/lib from the basesystem. Additionally add check-old target: - allows re@ to check if a file on the obsolete list resurfaces Design goals: - allows full control by the user (default interactive mode) - possibility of scripted removal of obsolete files (batch mode) - opt-in removal of files (explicit list of files) - seperate removal of libs (2 delete targets) Important design decissions: - structured list of files to remove instead of a plain text file: * allows to remove additional files if a NO_foo knob is specified without the need to change the targets (no NO_foo knob is respected yet) - not using mtree like NetBSD does: * mtree doesn't has an interactive mode Discussed on: arch (long ago), current (this year) Additional input from: re (hrs) Approved by: mentor (joerg) Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=148330

Unlike pccard_ifconfig, ifconfig_DEFAULT applies to all interfaces that do not specify an ifconfig_<ifn> variable rather than just those listed in removable_interfaces. - Correct the list of interfaces when network_interfaces and removable_interfaces are both set by including removable_interfaces in the list of canidates. - When listing dhcp interfaces, include those with other ifconfig options so nat works.
