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: mycroft 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 264 drivers are converted, the remaining 1/2 need more changes. 265 266 As of import this is snapshot of work in progress and so 267 may not compile; in particular the midi changes are very 268 much "in progress". The audio component has been tested 269 and verified to work with emuxki and auvia. There may 270 be a locking issue in the ac97 code at boot. 271 272 The are two locks per device instance, an ISR lock and 273 a character device lock. The ISR lock replaces calls to 274 splaudio()/splx(), and will be held across calls to device 275 methods which were called at splaudio() before (e.g. 276 trigger_output). The character device lock is held across 277 calls to nearly all of the methods, excluding some only 278 used for initialization, e.g. get_locks. This needs to be 279 documented at merge time. 280 281 To test on a multi way x86 system, search for "mpsafe" in 282 x86/x86/intr.c and change IPL_SCHED to IPL_AUDIO. Run a job 283 that will acquire the ISR lock (depends on the hardware, but 284 "while true; do mixerctl -a > /dev/null; done" may suffice). 285 Play audio, run lockstat and verify that that there is 286 contention on the ISR lock. 287 288 Branch: ad-audiomp2 289 Description: Add MP locking to the audio drivers 290 Status: Terminated 291 Start Date: 7 December 2008 292 End Date: 19 November 2011 293 Base Tag: ad-audiomp2-base 294 Maintainer: Andrew Doran <ad (a] NetBSD.org> 295 Scope: kernel 296 Notes: Ressurect ad-audiomp, make the audio drivers MP safe. 297 298 Branch: agc-netpgp-standalone 299 Description: Remove dependency on openssl libraries in netpgp 300 Status: Active 301 Start Date: 5 May 2012 302 End Date: 303 Base Tag: agc-netpgp-standalone-base 304 Maintainer: Alistair Crooks <agc (a] NetBSD.org> 305 Scope: src/crypto/external/bsd/netpgp 306 Notes: This branch is used to develop the version of netpgp 307 which has its own version of bignum, ciphers, and signatures 308 libraries, so that it is able to operate without openssl 309 being in place. 310 311 Branch: agc-symver 312 Description: Add library symbol versioning information 313 Status: Active 314 Start Date: 24 March 2013 315 End Date: 316 Base Tag: agc-symver-base 317 Maintainer: Alistair Crooks <agc (a] NetBSD.org> 318 Scope: src 319 Notes: This branch is used to develop DSO symbol versioning, allowing 320 symbols to be added, modified and removed from shared libraries. 321 322 Branch: bjh21-hydra 323 Description: Simtec Hydra support and ARM SMP in general 324 Status: Dormant 325 Start Date: 18 Oct 2002 326 End Date: 327 Base Tag: bjh21-hydra-base 328 Maintainer: Ben Harris <bjh21 (a] NetBSD.org> 329 Scope: sys/arch/arm sys/arch/acorn32 330 Notes: This code was on a branch because it involves changes to 331 cpuswitch.S which would otherwise make merging the 332 nathanw_sa branch difficult. 333 334 Branch: cherry-xenmp 335 Description: Port i386 and amd64 Xen kernels to run MP 336 Status: Terminated 337 Start Date: 1st June 2011 338 End Date: 13th January 2012 339 Base Tag: cherry-xenmp-base 340 Maintainer: Cherry G.

If you plan to 577 continue this branch, sys/netinet/in_pcb.h already contains 578 the proposed structure layout (which was roughly discussed 579 in the tech-net mailing list). 580 I also defined INP_*() macros to mimicate FreeBSD's inpcb 581 locking style, but currently they do nothing and are not 582 yet called at the correct places (needs discussion about 583 kernel fine-grained locking). 584 To continue this branch, one needs to read all the relevant 585 inpcb/in6pcb source files and change the function names, 586 structure names, structure fields according to the new 587 layout (in6pcb is gone). 588 Don't try to build a kernel from this branch because it won't 589 work. The missing pieces required to do a complete build 590 were not committed because they were incomplete and generated 591 panics. 592 You shouldn't need to worry about KAME syncs because 593 they did most of them by now. 594 After the work is done, you are required to test the branch 595 (before the merge to -current) with an interop IPv6 test. 596 More info at: http://www.tahi.org/ 597 598 Branch: wrstuden-fixsa 599 Description: Fix a number of issues present with Scheduler Activations. 600 Status: Active 601 Start Date: 15 May 2007 602 End Date: 603 Base Tag: wrstuden-fixsa-base 604 Maintainer: Bill Stouder-Studenmund <wrstuden (a] NetBSD.org> 605 Scope: src, though all the interesting stuff is in the kernel 606 or lib/libpthread or maybe gdb. 607 Notes: This branch is based off of the netbsd-4 branch! 608 This branch is intended to stage improvements for the 609 Scheduler Activations system for NetBSD 4. Improvements 610 include not allocating memory while preparing to tsleep(), 611 reducing inappropriate upcall delivery (hopefully also 612 eliminating the need to mlock stacks), and being 613 able to pthread_kill() running threads. At this date, 614 most goals have been achieved.

In terms of UBC, the primary cache for 1537 file data is the VM cache, which needs to operate 1538 in terms of VM pages. As no existing device has native 1539 pages the same size as our VM pages, there already is 1540 a mapping going on between the VM system and the 1541 underlying blocks. So it would be easier and cleaner 1542 to adjust that to deal w/ different block sizes. 1543 Also with UBC, all i/o is in terms of bytes at an offset 1544 with a certain length, so the exact block size isn't a big 1545 deal. 1546 1547 Any other wrstuden-devbsize tag may (and should) go away. 1548 1549 Branch: yamt-idlelwp 1550 Description: idle lwp, and some changes depending on it. 1551 1552 1. separate context switching and thread scheduling. 1553 (cf. gmcgarry_ctxsw) 1554 2. implement idle lwp. 1555 3. clean up related MD/MI interfaces. 1556 4. make scheduler(s) modular. 1557 1558 Status: Terminated; merged to -current 1559 Start Date: Fri Feb 17 2007 1560 End Date: Thu May 17 2007 1561 Base Tag: yamt-idlelwp-base8 1562 Maintainer: YAMAMOTO Takashi <yamt (a] NetBSD.org> 1563 Scope: src/sys (src/common is tagged but not branched) 1564 Notes: 1565 Status of ports: 1566 alpha [ Done, UP tested, MP not tested ] 1567 i386 [ Done, tested ] 1568 amd64 [ Done, tested ] 1569 mips [ Done, both MIPS1 and MIPS3 tested] 1570 sparc [ Done, UP tested, MP might have 1571 some problem after newlock2 merge ] 1572 sparc64 [ Done, tested ] 1573 arm [ Done, SA1 tested.
