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: Terminated 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.

About 1/2 of the 242 drivers are converted, the remaining 1/2 need more changes. 243 244 As of import this is snapshot of work in progress and so 245 may not compile; in particular the midi changes are very 246 much "in progress". The audio component has been tested 247 and verified to work with emuxki and auvia. There may 248 be a locking issue in the ac97 code at boot. 249 250 The are two locks per device instance, an ISR lock and 251 a character device lock. The ISR lock replaces calls to 252 splaudio()/splx(), and will be held across calls to device 253 methods which were called at splaudio() before (e.g. 254 trigger_output). The character device lock is held across 255 calls to nearly all of the methods, excluding some only 256 used for initialization, e.g. get_locks. This needs to be 257 documented at merge time. 258 259 To test on a multi way x86 system, search for "mpsafe" in 260 x86/x86/intr.c and change IPL_SCHED to IPL_AUDIO. Run a job 261 that will acquire the ISR lock (depends on the hardware, but 262 "while true; do mixerctl -a > /dev/null; done" may suffice). 263 Play audio, run lockstat and verify that that there is 264 contention on the ISR lock. 265 266 Branch: ad-audiomp2 267 Description: Add MP locking to the audio drivers 268 Status: Active 269 Start Date: 7 December 2008 270 End Date: 271 Base Tag: ad-audiomp2-base 272 Maintainer: Andrew Doran <ad (a] NetBSD.org> 273 Scope: kernel 274 Notes: Ressurect ad-audiomp, make the audio drivers MP safe. 275 276 Branch: bjh21-hydra 277 Description: Simtec Hydra support and ARM SMP in general 278 Status: Dormant 279 Start Date: 18 Oct 2002 280 End Date: 281 Base Tag: bjh21-hydra-base 282 Maintainer: Ben Harris <bjh21 (a] NetBSD.org> 283 Scope: sys/arch/arm sys/arch/acorn32 284 Notes: This code was on a branch because it involves changes to 285 cpuswitch.S which would otherwise make merging the 286 nathanw_sa branch difficult. 287 288 Branch: chris-arm-intr-rework 289 Description: Rework arm interrupt handling code 290 Status: Active 291 Start Date: 11 Aug 2007 292 End Date: 293 Base Tag: chris-arm-intr-rework-base 294 Maintainer: Chris Gilbert <chris (a] NetBSD.org> 295 Scope: sys/arch/arm sys/arch/cats (other arm archs to follow) 296 Notes: Rework arm interrupt code to provide a shared set of interrupt 297 routines, and allow improvements to be shared across all arm 298 based hardware. 299 300 Branch: gmcgarry_ctxsw 301 Description: Separate scheduler from context-switch code 302 Status: Dormant 303 Start Date: 18 December 2002 304 End Date: 305 Base Tag: gmcgarry_ctxsw_base 306 Maintainer: Gregory McGarry <gmcgarry (a] NetBSD.org> 307 Scope: kernel 308 Notes: Removing knowledge of the scheduler and its run queues 309 from the machine-dependent context switch code is the 310 first step in cleaning up the scheduler. It is necessary 311 for the newlock branch, making the scheduler SMP friendly, 312 adding real-time scheduler extensions, and reducing the 313 number of code paths for LWP and proc switching. 314 315 Branch: gmcgarry_ucred 316 Description: Integrate and encapsulate user credentials 317 Status: Dormant 318 Start Date: 18 December 2002 319 End Date: 320 Base Tag: gmcgarry_ucred_base 321 Maintainer: Gregory McGarry <gmcgarry (a] NetBSD.org> 322 Scope: kernel 323 Notes: merge pcred and ucred and poolify 324 325 Branch: hpcarm-cleanup 326 Description: Fix build problems for hpcarm 327 Status: Active 328 Start Date: 31 July 2007 329 End Date: 330 Base Tag: hpcarm-cleanup-base 331 Maintainer: Robert Swindells <rjs (a] NetBSD.org> 332 Scope: kernel 333 Notes: Modify SA11x0 interrupt code to match PXA2x0 equivalent. 334 335 Branch: itohy-usb1 336 Description: USB stack overhaul, mostly DMA related 337 Status: Active 338 Start Date: 22 May 2007 339 End Date: 340 Base Tag: itohy-usb1-base 341 Maintainer: ITOH Yasufumi <itohy (a] NetBSD.org> 342 Scope: kernel 343 Notes: To check out the kernel source tree, 344 1. check out checkout script 345 cvs checkout -ritohy-usb1 src/sys/dev/usb/filelist 346 2. update files in the branch 347 sh -e src/sys/dev/usb/filelist 348 349 Branch: jym-xensuspend 350 Description: Implement xm save/restore/migrate for NetBSD domU 351 Status: Active 352 Start Date: 2009-02-08 353 End Date: 354 Base Tag: jym-xensuspend-base 355 Maintainer: Jean-Yves Migeon <jym (a] NetBSD.org> 356 Scope: kernel 357 Notes: This branch contains the code required to support the Xen 358 save/restore/migrate facilities. It affects domU frontend 359 drivers (xbd, xennet, xencons, hypervisor), autoconf(9) 360 machinery, as well as MD code (mostly pmap(9)). 361 362 Branch: kame 363 Description: KAME Project 364 Status: Dormant 365 Start Date: 28 Jun 1999 366 End Date: 367 Base Tag: 368 Maintainer: Jun-ichiro itojun Hagino <itojun (a] NetBSD.org> 369 Scope: kernel 370 Notes: http://www.kame.net 371 Used for "reference" purposes for early part of KAME 372 integration effort.

The branch is 475 currently only the kernel, but will likely extend to some userland 476 areas. 477 478 Branch: pkgviews 479 Description: package views, enabling multiple conflicting packages to co-exist 480 Status: Active 481 Start Date: 22 July 2002 482 End Date: 483 Base Tag: pkgviews 484 Maintainer: Alistair Crooks <agc (a] NetBSD.org> 485 Scope: pkgsrc, basesrc/usr.sbin/pkg_install 486 Notes: A more flexible infrastructure for third-party packages by 487 allowing multiple conflicting packages and versions to co-exist 488 within the same tree 489 490 Branch: rpaulo-netinet-merge-pcb 491 Description: merge in6pcb with inpcb 492 Status: Dormant 493 Start Date: Wed Feb 01 2006 494 End Date: 495 Base Tag: rpaulo-netinet-merge-pcb-base 496 Maintainer: Rui Paulo <rpaulo (a] NetBSD.org> 497 Scope: src/sys 498 Notes: No longer active due to the lack of time. If you plan to 499 continue this branch, sys/netinet/in_pcb.h already contains 500 the proposed structure layout (which was roughly discussed 501 in the tech-net mailing list). 502 I also defined INP_*() macros to mimicate FreeBSD's inpcb 503 locking style, but currently they do nothing and are not 504 yet called at the correct places (needs discussion about 505 kernel fine-grained locking). 506 To continue this branch, one needs to read all the relevant 507 inpcb/in6pcb source files and change the function names, 508 structure names, structure fields according to the new 509 layout (in6pcb is gone). 510 Don't try to build a kernel from this branch because it won't 511 work. The missing pieces required to do a complete build 512 were not committed because they were incomplete and generated 513 panics. 514 You shouldn't need to worry about KAME syncs because 515 they did most of them by now. 516 After the work is done, you are required to test the branch 517 (before the merge to -current) with an interop IPv6 test. 518 More info at: http://www.tahi.org/ 519 520 Branch: rtr-xorg-branch 521 Description: xorg & static build alterations to src/x11 522 Status: Active 523 Start Date: Nov 15 2004 524 End Date: 525 Base tag: rtr-xorg-branch-base 526 Maintainer: Tyler R.

Improvements 548 include not allocating memory while preparing to tsleep(), 549 reducing inappropriate upcall delivery (hopefully also 550 eliminating the need to mlock stacks), and being 551 able to pthread_kill() running threads. At this date, 552 most goals have been achieved.

In terms of UBC, the primary cache for 1373 file data is the VM cache, which needs to operate 1374 in terms of VM pages. As no existing device has native 1375 pages the same size as our VM pages, there already is 1376 a mapping going on between the VM system and the 1377 underlying blocks. So it would be easier and cleaner 1378 to adjust that to deal w/ different block sizes. 1379 Also with UBC, all i/o is in terms of bytes at an offset 1380 with a certain length, so the exact block size isn't a big 1381 deal. 1382 1383 Any other wrstuden-devbsize tag may (and should) go away. 1384 1385 Branch: yamt-idlelwp 1386 Description: idle lwp, and some changes depending on it. 1387 1388 1. separate context switching and thread scheduling. 1389 (cf. gmcgarry_ctxsw) 1390 2. implement idle lwp. 1391 3. clean up related MD/MI interfaces. 1392 4. make scheduler(s) modular. 1393 1394 Status: Terminated; merged to -current 1395 Start Date: Fri Feb 17 2007 1396 End Date: Thu May 17 2007 1397 Base Tag: yamt-idlelwp-base8 1398 Maintainer: YAMAMOTO Takashi <yamt (a] NetBSD.org> 1399 Scope: src/sys (src/common is tagged but not branched) 1400 Notes: 1401 Status of ports: 1402 alpha [ Done, UP tested, MP not tested ] 1403 i386 [ Done, tested ] 1404 amd64 [ Done, tested ] 1405 mips [ Done, both MIPS1 and MIPS3 tested] 1406 sparc [ Done, UP tested, MP might have 1407 some problem after newlock2 merge ] 1408 sparc64 [ Done, tested ] 1409 arm [ Done, SA1 tested.
