To avoid name collisions, private tags should 10 # have names which begin with the developer's NetBSD login name 11 # followed by a - or _ character (e.g., thorpej_scsipi, 12 # thorpej-signal) 13 # 14 # Any branch or version tag not listed here should be assumed to be 15 # private to the developer who created it. It is inappropriate for 16 # anyone other than that developer to commit, move tags, or otherwise 17 # modify the contents of the branch. 18 # 19 # Please update this file when a new branch is ready for consumption 20 # by folks other than the maintainer, or when the use or status of an 21 # existing branch changes significantly. 22 # 23 # Format: 24 # Branch: name of branch 25 # Description: Purpose and intention of the branch 26 # Status: Active/Terminated/Dormant 27 # Start Date: date first instantiated 28 # End Date: date it was Terminated/made_Dormant, if any 29 # Base Tag: netbsd-1-5-base, etc. 30 # Maintainer: Somebody to blame. 31 # Scope: Portion of the tree covered. 32 # Notes: Various other info, perhaps explanation of special tags, 33 # who-may-commit policies, etc. 34 # 35 # There are four sections to this file: 36 # Release branches 37 # Individual developers' branches (Active/Dormant) 38 # Individual developers' branches (Terminated), and 39 # other 40 # 41 # Entries within each section should be alphabetized. 42 # 43 44 45 # Release branches: 46 47 Branch: comdex-fall-1999 48 Description: Special release branch for pre-1.5 release at 49 Fall 1999 COMDEX. 50 Status: Terminated 51 Start Date: 52 End Date: 53 Base Tag: comdex-fall-1999-base 54 Maintainer: ? 55 Scope: Entire tree. 56 Notes: 57 58 Branch: netbsd-0-9 59 Description: The NetBSD 0.9 release branch 60 Status: Terminated 61 Start Date: 62 End Date: 63 Base Tag: netbsd-0-9-base 64 Maintainer: Release Engineering <releng (a] NetBSD.org> 65 Scope: Entire tree. 66 Notes: Subsidiary tags of: netbsd-0-9-ALPHA, netbsd-0-9-ALPHA2, 67 netbsd-0-9-BETA, netbsd-0-9-RELEASE. 68 Commits restricted to release engineering. 69 70 Branch: netbsd-1-0 71 Description: The NetBSD 1.0 release branch 72 Status: Terminated 73 Start Date: 74 End Date: 75 Base Tag: netbsd-1-0-base 76 Maintainer: Release Engineering <releng (a] NetBSD.org> 77 Scope: Entire tree. 78 Notes: 79 Commits restricted to release engineering. 80 81 Branch: netbsd-1-1 82 Description: The NetBSD 1.1 release branch 83 Status: Terminated 84 Start Date: 85 End Date: 86 Base Tag: netbsd-1-1-base 87 Maintainer: Release Engineering <releng (a] NetBSD.org> 88 Scope: Entire tree. 89 Notes: 90 Commits restricted to release engineering. 91 92 Branch: netbsd-1-2 93 Description: The NetBSD 1.2 release branch 94 Status: Terminated 95 Start Date: 96 End Date: 97 Base Tag: netbsd-1-2-base 98 Maintainer: Release Engineering <releng (a] NetBSD.org> 99 Scope: Entire tree. 100 Notes: 101 Commits restricted to release engineering. 102 103 Branch: netbsd-1-3 104 Description: The NetBSD 1.3 release branch 105 Status: Terminated 106 Start Date: 107 End Date: 108 Base Tag: netbsd-1-3-base 109 Maintainer: Release Engineering <releng (a] NetBSD.org> 110 Scope: Entire tree. 111 Notes: 112 Commits restricted to release engineering. 113 114 Branch: netbsd-1-4 115 Description: The NetBSD 1.4 release branch 116 Status: Terminated 117 Start Date: 1 Apr 2000 118 End Date: 119 Base Tag: netbsd-1-4-base 120 Maintainer: 1.4 Release Engineering <releng-1-4 (a] NetBSD.org> 121 Scope: Entire tree. 122 Notes: 123 Commits restricted to release engineering. 124 125 Branch: netbsd-1-5 126 Description: The NetBSD 1.5 release branch 127 Status: Terminated 128 Start Date: 20 Jun 2000 129 End Date: 26 Jan 2005 130 Base Tag: netbsd-1-5-base 131 Maintainer: 1.5 Release Engineering <releng-1-5 (a] NetBSD.org> 132 Scope: Entire tree. 133 Notes: 134 Commits restricted to release engineering. 135 136 Branch: netbsd-1-6 137 Description: The NetBSD 1.6 release branch 138 Status: Terminated 139 Start Date: 22 May 2002 140 End Date: 141 Base Tag: netbsd-1-6-base 142 Maintainer: 1.6 Release Engineering <releng-1-6 (a] NetBSD.org> 143 Scope: Entire tree. 144 Notes: 145 Commits restricted to Release Engineering. 146 147 Branch: netbsd-2 148 Description: The NetBSD 2 release branch 149 Status: Active 150 Start Date: 23 Dec 2004 151 End Date: 152 Base Tag: netbsd-2-base 153 Maintainer: 2 Release Engineering <releng-2 (a] NetBSD.org> 154 Scope: Entire tree.

In terms of UBC, the primary cache for 858 file data is the VM cache, which needs to operate 859 in terms of VM pages. As no existing device has native 860 pages the same size as our VM pages, there already is 861 a mapping going on between the VM system and the 862 underlying blocks. So it would be easier and cleaner 863 to adjust that to deal w/ different block sizes. 864 Also with UBC, all i/o is in terms of bytes at an offset 865 with a certain length, so the exact block size isn't a big 866 deal. 867 868 Any other wrstuden-devbsize tag may (and should) go away. 869 870 Branch: yamt-km, yamt-km-doc 871 Description: simplify/improve kernel memory management and bootstrap 872 Status: Terminated; merged to -current 873 Start Date: Tue Jan 25 2005 874 End Date: Fri Apr 1 2005 875 Base Tag: yamt-km-base{,2,3,4}, yamt-km-doc-base 876 Maintainer: YAMAMOTO Takashi <yamt (a] NetBSD.org> 877 Scope: yamt-km: src/sys 878 yamt-km-doc: src/share/man/man9/uvm.9 879 Notes: http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/tech-kern/2004/12/25/0005.html 880 881 the followings are per-port status. 882 (account names mean "tested by".) 883 884 works enough to go to multiuser: 885 alpha, i386, xen (yamt@) 886 pc532 (simonb@) 887 alpha, i386, mac68k, macppc, pmax, shark, 888 sparc, sparc64, sun3, x68k (chs@) 889 cobalt, dreamcast, hp300, news68k, newsmips, 890 sun3x (tsutsui@) 891 amiga (mhitch@) 892 cats, hp700 (skrll@) 893 xen (bouyer@) 894 895 known to have the same problem as trunk: 896 vax (chs@, stuck while running kvm_mkdb) 897 898 known to have a problem: 899 luna68k (and, if any, other m68k ports which use TTR) 900 needs to be revisited. 901 -> for luna68k, although not tested, 902 Sysmap has been moved to avoid kva conflict with 903 I/O ranges. 904 905 buildable: 906 src/sys/arch/acorn26/conf/GENERIC 907 src/sys/arch/acorn32/conf/GENERIC 908 src/sys/arch/algor/conf/P6032 909 src/sys/arch/alpha/conf/GENERIC 910 src/sys/arch/alpha/conf/GENERIC.MP 911 src/sys/arch/amd64/conf/GENERIC 912 src/sys/arch/amd64/conf/GENERIC.MP 913 src/sys/arch/amiga/conf/GENERIC 914 src/sys/arch/arc/conf/GENERIC 915 src/sys/arch/atari/conf/MILAN-PCIIDE 916 src/sys/arch/bebox/conf/GENERIC 917 src/sys/arch/cats/conf/GENERIC 918 src/sys/arch/cesfic/conf/GENERIC 919 src/sys/arch/cobalt/conf/GENERIC 920 src/sys/arch/dreamcast/conf/GENERIC 921 src/sys/arch/evbarm/conf/TS7200 922 src/sys/arch/evbppc/conf/WALNUT 923 src/sys/arch/evbsh3/conf/COMPUTEXEVB 924 src/sys/arch/evbsh5/conf/CAYMAN64 925 src/sys/arch/hp300/conf/GENERIC 926 src/sys/arch/hp700/conf/GENERIC 927 src/sys/arch/hpcarm/conf/JORNADA728 928 src/sys/arch/hpcmips/conf/GENERIC 929 src/sys/arch/hpcsh/conf/GENERIC 930 src/sys/arch/hpcsh/conf/HPW650PA 931 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC 932 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC.MP 933 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/XEN0 934 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/XENU 935 src/sys/arch/ibmnws/conf/GENERIC 936 src/sys/arch/iyonix/conf/GENERIC 937 src/sys/arch/luna68k/conf/GENERIC 938 src/sys/arch/mac68k/conf/GENERIC 939 src/sys/arch/macppc/conf/GENERIC 940 src/sys/arch/macppc/conf/GENERIC.MP 941 src/sys/arch/mipsco/conf/GENERIC 942 src/sys/arch/mmeye/conf/GENERIC 943 src/sys/arch/mvme68k/conf/GENERIC 944 src/sys/arch/netwinder/conf/GENERIC 945 src/sys/arch/news68k/conf/GENERIC 946 src/sys/arch/newsmips/conf/GENERIC 947 src/sys/arch/next68k/conf/GENERIC 948 src/sys/arch/ofppc/conf/GENERIC 949 src/sys/arch/pc532/conf/GENERIC 950 src/sys/arch/pmax/conf/GENERIC 951 src/sys/arch/prep/conf/GENERIC 952 src/sys/arch/sandpoint/conf/GENERIC 953 src/sys/arch/sbmips/conf/GENERIC 954 src/sys/arch/sgimips/conf/GENERIC32_IP3x 955 src/sys/arch/shark/conf/GENERIC 956 src/sys/arch/sparc/conf/GENERIC 957 src/sys/arch/sparc/conf/GENERIC.MP 958 src/sys/arch/sparc64/conf/GENERIC 959 src/sys/arch/sparc64/conf/GENERIC.MP 960 src/sys/arch/sun2/conf/GENERIC 961 src/sys/arch/sun3/conf/GENERIC 962 src/sys/arch/vax/conf/GENERIC 963 src/sys/arch/vax/conf/GENERIC.MP 964 src/sys/arch/x68k/conf/GENERIC 965 966 src/sys/arch/playstation2/conf/GENERIC 967 968 Branch: yamt-pdpolicy 969 Description: play with page replacement policy 970 - separate page replacement policy from the rest of kernel 971 - implement alternative replacement policy 972 - related read-ahead adjustment?
