1 # $NetBSD: BRANCHES,v 1.107 2006/09/24 06:20:52 yamt Exp $ 2 # 3 # This file contains a list of branches that exist in the NetBSD CVS 4 # tree and their current state. 5 # 6 # This list is necessarily incomplete. 7 # 8 # Within reason, developers may create branch and version tags at any 9 # time for any purpose. 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 856 file data is the VM cache, which needs to operate 857 in terms of VM pages. As no existing device has native 858 pages the same size as our VM pages, there already is 859 a mapping going on between the VM system and the 860 underlying blocks. So it would be easier and cleaner 861 to adjust that to deal w/ different block sizes. 862 Also with UBC, all i/o is in terms of bytes at an offset 863 with a certain length, so the exact block size isn't a big 864 deal. 865 866 Any other wrstuden-devbsize tag may (and should) go away. 867 868 Branch: yamt-km, yamt-km-doc 869 Description: simplify/improve kernel memory management and bootstrap 870 Status: Terminated; merged to -current 871 Start Date: Tue Jan 25 2005 872 End Date: Fri Apr 1 2005 873 Base Tag: yamt-km-base{,2,3,4}, yamt-km-doc-base 874 Maintainer: YAMAMOTO Takashi <yamt (a] NetBSD.org> 875 Scope: yamt-km: src/sys 876 yamt-km-doc: src/share/man/man9/uvm.9 877 Notes: http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/tech-kern/2004/12/25/0005.html 878 879 the followings are per-port status. 880 (account names mean "tested by".) 881 882 works enough to go to multiuser: 883 alpha, i386, xen (yamt@) 884 pc532 (simonb@) 885 alpha, i386, mac68k, macppc, pmax, shark, 886 sparc, sparc64, sun3, x68k (chs@) 887 cobalt, dreamcast, hp300, news68k, newsmips, 888 sun3x (tsutsui@) 889 amiga (mhitch@) 890 cats, hp700 (skrll@) 891 xen (bouyer@) 892 893 known to have the same problem as trunk: 894 vax (chs@, stuck while running kvm_mkdb) 895 896 known to have a problem: 897 luna68k (and, if any, other m68k ports which use TTR) 898 needs to be revisited. 899 -> for luna68k, although not tested, 900 Sysmap has been moved to avoid kva conflict with 901 I/O ranges. 902 903 buildable: 904 src/sys/arch/acorn26/conf/GENERIC 905 src/sys/arch/acorn32/conf/GENERIC 906 src/sys/arch/algor/conf/P6032 907 src/sys/arch/alpha/conf/GENERIC 908 src/sys/arch/alpha/conf/GENERIC.MP 909 src/sys/arch/amd64/conf/GENERIC 910 src/sys/arch/amd64/conf/GENERIC.MP 911 src/sys/arch/amiga/conf/GENERIC 912 src/sys/arch/arc/conf/GENERIC 913 src/sys/arch/atari/conf/MILAN-PCIIDE 914 src/sys/arch/bebox/conf/GENERIC 915 src/sys/arch/cats/conf/GENERIC 916 src/sys/arch/cesfic/conf/GENERIC 917 src/sys/arch/cobalt/conf/GENERIC 918 src/sys/arch/dreamcast/conf/GENERIC 919 src/sys/arch/evbarm/conf/TS7200 920 src/sys/arch/evbppc/conf/WALNUT 921 src/sys/arch/evbsh3/conf/COMPUTEXEVB 922 src/sys/arch/evbsh5/conf/CAYMAN64 923 src/sys/arch/hp300/conf/GENERIC 924 src/sys/arch/hp700/conf/GENERIC 925 src/sys/arch/hpcarm/conf/JORNADA728 926 src/sys/arch/hpcmips/conf/GENERIC 927 src/sys/arch/hpcsh/conf/GENERIC 928 src/sys/arch/hpcsh/conf/HPW650PA 929 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC 930 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC.MP 931 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/XEN0 932 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/XENU 933 src/sys/arch/ibmnws/conf/GENERIC 934 src/sys/arch/iyonix/conf/GENERIC 935 src/sys/arch/luna68k/conf/GENERIC 936 src/sys/arch/mac68k/conf/GENERIC 937 src/sys/arch/macppc/conf/GENERIC 938 src/sys/arch/macppc/conf/GENERIC.MP 939 src/sys/arch/mipsco/conf/GENERIC 940 src/sys/arch/mmeye/conf/GENERIC 941 src/sys/arch/mvme68k/conf/GENERIC 942 src/sys/arch/netwinder/conf/GENERIC 943 src/sys/arch/news68k/conf/GENERIC 944 src/sys/arch/newsmips/conf/GENERIC 945 src/sys/arch/next68k/conf/GENERIC 946 src/sys/arch/ofppc/conf/GENERIC 947 src/sys/arch/pc532/conf/GENERIC 948 src/sys/arch/pmax/conf/GENERIC 949 src/sys/arch/prep/conf/GENERIC 950 src/sys/arch/sandpoint/conf/GENERIC 951 src/sys/arch/sbmips/conf/GENERIC 952 src/sys/arch/sgimips/conf/GENERIC32_IP3x 953 src/sys/arch/shark/conf/GENERIC 954 src/sys/arch/sparc/conf/GENERIC 955 src/sys/arch/sparc/conf/GENERIC.MP 956 src/sys/arch/sparc64/conf/GENERIC 957 src/sys/arch/sparc64/conf/GENERIC.MP 958 src/sys/arch/sun2/conf/GENERIC 959 src/sys/arch/sun3/conf/GENERIC 960 src/sys/arch/vax/conf/GENERIC 961 src/sys/arch/vax/conf/GENERIC.MP 962 src/sys/arch/x68k/conf/GENERIC 963 964 src/sys/arch/playstation2/conf/GENERIC 965 966 Branch: yamt-pdpolicy 967 Description: play with page replacement policy 968 - separate page replacement policy from the rest of kernel 969 - implement alternative replacement policy 970 - related read-ahead adjustment?
