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 820 file data is the VM cache, which needs to operate 821 in terms of VM pages. As no existing device has native 822 pages the same size as our VM pages, there already is 823 a mapping going on between the VM system and the 824 underlying blocks. So it would be easier and cleaner 825 to adjust that to deal w/ different block sizes. 826 Also with UBC, all i/o is in terms of bytes at an offset 827 with a certain length, so the exact block size isn't a big 828 deal. 829 830 Any other wrstuden-devbsize tag may (and should) go away. 831 832 Branch: yamt-km, yamt-km-doc 833 Description: simplify/improve kernel memory management and bootstrap 834 Status: Terminated; merged to -current 835 Start Date: Tue Jan 25 2005 836 End Date: Fri Apr 1 2005 837 Base Tag: yamt-km-base{,2,3,4}, yamt-km-doc-base 838 Maintainer: YAMAMOTO Takashi <yamt (a] NetBSD.org> 839 Scope: yamt-km: src/sys 840 yamt-km-doc: src/share/man/man9/uvm.9 841 Notes: http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/tech-kern/2004/12/25/0005.html 842 843 the followings are per-port status. 844 (account names mean "tested by".) 845 846 works enough to go to multiuser: 847 alpha, i386, xen (yamt@) 848 pc532 (simonb@) 849 alpha, i386, mac68k, macppc, pmax, shark, 850 sparc, sparc64, sun3, x68k (chs@) 851 cobalt, dreamcast, hp300, news68k, newsmips, 852 sun3x (tsutsui@) 853 amiga (mhitch@) 854 cats, hp700 (skrll@) 855 xen (bouyer@) 856 857 known to have the same problem as trunk: 858 vax (chs@, stuck while running kvm_mkdb) 859 860 known to have a problem: 861 luna68k (and, if any, other m68k ports which use TTR) 862 needs to be revisited. 863 -> for luna68k, although not tested, 864 Sysmap has been moved to avoid kva conflict with 865 I/O ranges. 866 867 buildable: 868 src/sys/arch/acorn26/conf/GENERIC 869 src/sys/arch/acorn32/conf/GENERIC 870 src/sys/arch/algor/conf/P6032 871 src/sys/arch/alpha/conf/GENERIC 872 src/sys/arch/alpha/conf/GENERIC.MP 873 src/sys/arch/amd64/conf/GENERIC 874 src/sys/arch/amd64/conf/GENERIC.MP 875 src/sys/arch/amiga/conf/GENERIC 876 src/sys/arch/arc/conf/GENERIC 877 src/sys/arch/atari/conf/MILAN-PCIIDE 878 src/sys/arch/bebox/conf/GENERIC 879 src/sys/arch/cats/conf/GENERIC 880 src/sys/arch/cesfic/conf/GENERIC 881 src/sys/arch/cobalt/conf/GENERIC 882 src/sys/arch/dreamcast/conf/GENERIC 883 src/sys/arch/evbarm/conf/TS7200 884 src/sys/arch/evbppc/conf/WALNUT 885 src/sys/arch/evbsh3/conf/COMPUTEXEVB 886 src/sys/arch/evbsh5/conf/CAYMAN64 887 src/sys/arch/hp300/conf/GENERIC 888 src/sys/arch/hp700/conf/GENERIC 889 src/sys/arch/hpcarm/conf/JORNADA728 890 src/sys/arch/hpcmips/conf/GENERIC 891 src/sys/arch/hpcsh/conf/GENERIC 892 src/sys/arch/hpcsh/conf/HPW650PA 893 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC 894 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC.MP 895 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/XEN0 896 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/XENU 897 src/sys/arch/ibmnws/conf/GENERIC 898 src/sys/arch/iyonix/conf/GENERIC 899 src/sys/arch/luna68k/conf/GENERIC 900 src/sys/arch/mac68k/conf/GENERIC 901 src/sys/arch/macppc/conf/GENERIC 902 src/sys/arch/macppc/conf/GENERIC.MP 903 src/sys/arch/mipsco/conf/GENERIC 904 src/sys/arch/mmeye/conf/GENERIC 905 src/sys/arch/mvme68k/conf/GENERIC 906 src/sys/arch/netwinder/conf/GENERIC 907 src/sys/arch/news68k/conf/GENERIC 908 src/sys/arch/newsmips/conf/GENERIC 909 src/sys/arch/next68k/conf/GENERIC 910 src/sys/arch/ofppc/conf/GENERIC 911 src/sys/arch/pc532/conf/GENERIC 912 src/sys/arch/pmax/conf/GENERIC 913 src/sys/arch/prep/conf/GENERIC 914 src/sys/arch/sandpoint/conf/GENERIC 915 src/sys/arch/sbmips/conf/GENERIC 916 src/sys/arch/sgimips/conf/GENERIC32_IP3x 917 src/sys/arch/shark/conf/GENERIC 918 src/sys/arch/sparc/conf/GENERIC 919 src/sys/arch/sparc/conf/GENERIC.MP 920 src/sys/arch/sparc64/conf/GENERIC 921 src/sys/arch/sparc64/conf/GENERIC.MP 922 src/sys/arch/sun2/conf/GENERIC 923 src/sys/arch/sun3/conf/GENERIC 924 src/sys/arch/vax/conf/GENERIC 925 src/sys/arch/vax/conf/GENERIC.MP 926 src/sys/arch/x68k/conf/GENERIC 927 928 src/sys/arch/playstation2/conf/GENERIC 929 930 Branch: yamt-pdpolicy 931 Description: play with page replacement policy 932 - separate page replacement policy from the rest of kernel 933 - implement alternative replacement policy 934 - related read-ahead adjustment?
