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 339 drivers are converted, the remaining 1/2 need more changes. 340 341 As of import this is snapshot of work in progress and so 342 may not compile; in particular the midi changes are very 343 much "in progress". The audio component has been tested 344 and verified to work with emuxki and auvia. There may 345 be a locking issue in the ac97 code at boot. 346 347 The are two locks per device instance, an ISR lock and 348 a character device lock. The ISR lock replaces calls to 349 splaudio()/splx(), and will be held across calls to device 350 methods which were called at splaudio() before (e.g. 351 trigger_output). The character device lock is held across 352 calls to nearly all of the methods, excluding some only 353 used for initialization, e.g. get_locks. This needs to be 354 documented at merge time. 355 356 To test on a multi way x86 system, search for "mpsafe" in 357 x86/x86/intr.c and change IPL_SCHED to IPL_AUDIO. Run a job 358 that will acquire the ISR lock (depends on the hardware, but 359 "while true; do mixerctl -a > /dev/null; done" may suffice). 360 Play audio, run lockstat and verify that that there is 361 contention on the ISR lock. 362 363 Branch: ad-audiomp2 364 Description: Add MP locking to the audio drivers 365 Status: Terminated 366 Start Date: 7 December 2008 367 End Date: 19 November 2011 368 Base Tag: ad-audiomp2-base 369 Maintainer: Andrew Doran <ad (a] NetBSD.org> 370 Scope: kernel 371 Notes: Ressurect ad-audiomp, make the audio drivers MP safe. 372 373 Branch: agc-netpgp-standalone 374 Description: Remove dependency on openssl libraries in netpgp 375 Status: Active 376 Start Date: 5 May 2012 377 End Date: 378 Base Tag: agc-netpgp-standalone-base 379 Maintainer: Alistair Crooks <agc (a] NetBSD.org> 380 Scope: src/crypto/external/bsd/netpgp 381 Notes: This branch is used to develop the version of netpgp 382 which has its own version of bignum, ciphers, and signatures 383 libraries, so that it is able to operate without openssl 384 being in place. 385 386 Branch: agc-symver 387 Description: Add library symbol versioning information 388 Status: Active 389 Start Date: 24 March 2013 390 End Date: 391 Base Tag: agc-symver-base 392 Maintainer: Alistair Crooks <agc (a] NetBSD.org> 393 Scope: src 394 Notes: This branch is used to develop DSO symbol versioning, allowing 395 symbols to be added, modified and removed from shared libraries. 396 397 Branch: bjh21-hydra 398 Description: Simtec Hydra support and ARM SMP in general 399 Status: Dormant 400 Start Date: 18 Oct 2002 401 End Date: 402 Base Tag: bjh21-hydra-base 403 Maintainer: Ben Harris <bjh21 (a] NetBSD.org> 404 Scope: sys/arch/arm sys/arch/acorn32 405 Notes: This code was on a branch because it involves changes to 406 cpuswitch.S which would otherwise make merging the 407 nathanw_sa branch difficult. 408 409 Branch: bouyer-socketcan 410 Description: Implement a CAN socket layer compatible with linux SocketCAN 411 Status: Terminated 412 Start Date: Sun Jan 15 2017 413 End Date: May 27 2017 414 Base Tag: bouyer-socketcan-base 415 Maintainer: Manuel Bouyer <bouyer (a] NetBSD.org> 416 Scope: src/ 417 Notes: Some documentation on SocketCAN is there: 418 https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/can.txt 419 420 Branch: cherry-xenmp 421 Description: Port i386 and amd64 Xen kernels to run MP 422 Status: Terminated 423 Start Date: 1st June 2011 424 End Date: 13th January 2012 425 Base Tag: cherry-xenmp-base 426 Maintainer: Cherry G.

If you plan to 662 continue this branch, sys/netinet/in_pcb.h already contains 663 the proposed structure layout (which was roughly discussed 664 in the tech-net mailing list). 665 I also defined INP_*() macros to mimicate FreeBSD's inpcb 666 locking style, but currently they do nothing and are not 667 yet called at the correct places (needs discussion about 668 kernel fine-grained locking). 669 To continue this branch, one needs to read all the relevant 670 inpcb/in6pcb source files and change the function names, 671 structure names, structure fields according to the new 672 layout (in6pcb is gone). 673 Don't try to build a kernel from this branch because it won't 674 work. The missing pieces required to do a complete build 675 were not committed because they were incomplete and generated 676 panics. 677 You shouldn't need to worry about KAME syncs because 678 they did most of them by now. 679 After the work is done, you are required to test the branch 680 (before the merge to -current) with an interop IPv6 test. 681 More info at: http://www.tahi.org/ 682 683 Branch: wrstuden-fixsa 684 Description: Fix a number of issues present with Scheduler Activations. 685 Status: Active 686 Start Date: 15 May 2007 687 End Date: 688 Base Tag: wrstuden-fixsa-base 689 Maintainer: Bill Stouder-Studenmund <wrstuden (a] NetBSD.org> 690 Scope: src, though all the interesting stuff is in the kernel 691 or lib/libpthread or maybe gdb. 692 Notes: This branch is based off of the netbsd-4 branch! 693 This branch is intended to stage improvements for the 694 Scheduler Activations system for NetBSD 4.
