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 47Branch: comdex-fall-1999 48Description: Special release branch for pre-1.5 release at 49 Fall 1999 COMDEX. 50Status: Terminated 51Start Date: 52End Date: 53Base Tag: comdex-fall-1999-base 54Maintainer: ? 55Scope: Entire tree. 56Notes: 57 58Branch: netbsd-0-9 59Description: The NetBSD 0.9 release branch 60Status: Terminated 61Start Date: 62End Date: 63Base Tag: netbsd-0-9-base 64Maintainer: Release Engineering <releng@NetBSD.org> 65Scope: Entire tree. 66Notes: 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 70Branch: netbsd-1-0 71Description: The NetBSD 1.0 release branch 72Status: Terminated 73Start Date: 74End Date: 75Base Tag: netbsd-1-0-base 76Maintainer: Release Engineering <releng@NetBSD.org> 77Scope: Entire tree. 78Notes: 79 Commits restricted to release engineering. 80 81Branch: netbsd-1-1 82Description: The NetBSD 1.1 release branch 83Status: Terminated 84Start Date: 85End Date: 86Base Tag: netbsd-1-1-base 87Maintainer: Release Engineering <releng@NetBSD.org> 88Scope: Entire tree. 89Notes: 90 Commits restricted to release engineering. 91 92Branch: netbsd-1-2 93Description: The NetBSD 1.2 release branch 94Status: Terminated 95Start Date: 96End Date: 97Base Tag: netbsd-1-2-base 98Maintainer: Release Engineering <releng@NetBSD.org> 99Scope: Entire tree. 100Notes: 101 Commits restricted to release engineering. 102 103Branch: netbsd-1-3 104Description: The NetBSD 1.3 release branch 105Status: Terminated 106Start Date: 107End Date: 108Base Tag: netbsd-1-3-base 109Maintainer: Release Engineering <releng@NetBSD.org> 110Scope: Entire tree. 111Notes: 112 Commits restricted to release engineering. 113 114Branch: netbsd-1-4 115Description: The NetBSD 1.4 release branch 116Status: Terminated 117Start Date: 1 Apr 2000 118End Date: 119Base Tag: netbsd-1-4-base 120Maintainer: 1.4 Release Engineering <releng-1-4@NetBSD.org> 121Scope: Entire tree. 122Notes: 123 Commits restricted to release engineering. 124 125Branch: netbsd-1-5 126Description: The NetBSD 1.5 release branch 127Status: Terminated 128Start Date: 20 Jun 2000 129End Date: 26 Jan 2005 130Base Tag: netbsd-1-5-base 131Maintainer: 1.5 Release Engineering <releng-1-5@NetBSD.org> 132Scope: Entire tree. 133Notes: 134 Commits restricted to release engineering. 135 136Branch: netbsd-1-6 137Description: The NetBSD 1.6 release branch 138Status: Terminated 139Start Date: 22 May 2002 140End Date: 141Base Tag: netbsd-1-6-base 142Maintainer: 1.6 Release Engineering <releng-1-6@NetBSD.org> 143Scope: Entire tree. 144Notes: 145 Commits restricted to Release Engineering. 146 147Branch: netbsd-2 148Description: The NetBSD 2 release branch 149Status: Active 150Start Date: 23 Dec 2004 151End Date: 152Base Tag: netbsd-2-base 153Maintainer: 2 Release Engineering <releng-2@NetBSD.org> 154Scope: Entire tree.

About 1/2 of the 221 drivers are converted, the remaining 1/2 need more changes. 222 223 As of import this is snapshot of work in progress and so 224 may not compile; in particular the midi changes are very 225 much "in progress". The audio component has been tested 226 and verified to work with emuxki and auvia. There may 227 be a locking issue in the ac97 code at boot. 228 229 The are two locks per device instance, an ISR lock and 230 a character device lock. The ISR lock replaces calls to 231 splaudio()/splx(), and will be held across calls to device 232 methods which were called at splaudio() before (e.g. 233 trigger_output). The character device lock is held across 234 calls to nearly all of the methods, excluding some only 235 used for initializtion, e.g. get_locks. This needs to be 236 documented at merge time. 237 238 To test on a multi way x86 system, search for "mpsafe" in 239 x86/x86/intr.c and change IPL_SCHED to IPL_AUDIO. Run a job 240 that will acquire the ISR lock (depends on the hardware, but 241 "while true; do mixerctl -a > /dev/null; done" may suffice). 242 Play audio, run lockstat and verify that that there is 243 contention on the ISR lock. 244 245Branch: bjh21-hydra 246Description: Simtec Hydra support and ARM SMP in general 247Status: Dormant 248Start Date: 18 Oct 2002 249End Date: 250Base Tag: bjh21-hydra-base 251Maintainer: Ben Harris <bjh21@NetBSD.org> 252Scope: sys/arch/arm sys/arch/acorn32 253Notes: This code was on a branch because it involves changes to 254 cpuswitch.S which would otherwise make merging the 255 nathanw_sa branch difficult. 256 257Branch: gmcgarry_ctxsw 258Description: Separate scheduler from context-switch code 259Status: Dormant 260Start Date: 18 December 2002 261End Date: 262Base Tag: gmcgarry_ctxsw_base 263Maintainer: Gregory McGarry <gmcgarry@NetBSD.org> 264Scope: kernel 265Notes: Removing knowledge of the schedular and its run queues 266 from the machine-dependent context switch code is the 267 first step in cleaning up the scheduler. It is necessary 268 for the newlock branch, making the scheduler SMP friendly, 269 adding real-time scheduler extensions, and reducing the 270 number of code paths for LWP and proc switching. 271 272Branch: gmcgarry_ucred 273Description: Integrate and encapsulate user credentials 274Status: Dormant 275Start Date: 18 December 2002 276End Date: 277Base Tag: gmcgarry_ucred_base 278Maintainer: Gregory McGarry <gmcgarry@NetBSD.org> 279Scope: kernel 280Notes: merge pcred and ucred and poolify 281 282Branch: kame 283Description: KAME Project 284Status: Dormant 285Start Date: 28 Jun 1999 286End Date: 287Base Tag: 288Maintainer: Jun-ichiro itojun Hagino <itojun@NetBSD.org> 289Scope: kernel 290Notes: http://www.kame.net 291 Used for "reference" purposes for early part of KAME 292 integration effort. The branch is not actively used, as I 293 (itojun) use patch(1) and diff(1) for the KAME syncs. 294 295Branch: kent-audio2 296Description: In-kernel audio mixer 297Status: Active 298Start Date: Sun Jan 16 2005 299End Date: 300Base Tag: kent-audio2-base 301Maintainer: TAMURA Kent <kent@NetBSD.org> 302Scope: kernel (audio device drivers) 303Notes: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-kern/2004/12/03/0007.html 304 Please consult with the maintainer before committing 305 to this branch. 306 This branch is not expected to be compilable yet. 307 308Branch: matt-timespec 309Description: Convert the kernel to struct timespec as its primary time 310 storage mechanism. 311Status: Active 312Start Date: 2005-02-19 313End Date: 314Base Tag: 315Maintainer: Matt Thomas <matt@NetBSD.org> 316Scope: kernel 317Notes: 318 319Branch: newlock 320Description: New locking primitives, based on Solaris's 321Status: Terminated 322Start Date: March 9, 2002 323End Date: Febuary 12, 2007 324Base Tag: newlock-base 325Maintainer: Jason R.

Goals: 343 - Implement new locking primitives on most-used ports. 344 - Minor locking improvements. 345 - Remove spinlockmgr(). 346 347Branch: pkgviews 348Description: package views, enabling multiple conflicting packages to co-exist 349Status: Active 350Start Date: 22 July 2002 351End Date: 352Base Tag: pkgviews 353Maintainer: Alistair Crooks <agc@NetBSD.org> 354Scope: pkgsrc, basesrc/usr.sbin/pkg_install 355Notes: A more flexible infrastructure for third-party packages by 356 allowing multiple conflicting packages and versions to co-exist 357 within the same tree 358 359Branch: rpaulo-netinet-merge-pcb 360Description: merge in6pcb with inpcb 361Status: Dormant 362Start Date: Wed Feb 01 2006 363End Date: 364Base Tag: rpaulo-netinet-merge-pcb-base 365Maintainer: Rui Paulo <rpaulo@NetBSD.org> 366Scope: src/sys 367Notes: No longer active due to the lack of time. If you plan to 368 continue this branch, sys/netinet/in_pcb.h already contains 369 the proposed structure layout (which was roughly discussed 370 in the tech-net mailing list). 371 I also defined INP_*() macros to mimicate FreeBSD's inpcb 372 locking style, but currently they do nothing and are not 373 yet called at the correct places (needs discussion about 374 kernel fine-grained locking). 375 To continue this branch, one needs to read all the relevant 376 inpcb/in6pcb source files and change the function names, 377 structure names, structure fileds according to the new 378 layout (in6pcb is gone). 379 Don't try to build a kernel from this branch because it won't 380 work. The missing pieces required to do a complete build 381 were not committed because they were incomplete and generated 382 panics. 383 You shouldn't need to worry about KAME syncs because 384 they did most of them by now. 385 After the work is done, you are required to test the branch 386 (before the merge to -current) with an interop IPv6 test. 387 More info at: http://www.tahi.org/ 388 389Branch: rtr-xorg-branch 390Description: xorg & static build alterations to src/x11 391Status: Active 392Start Date: Nov 15 2004 393End Date: 394Base tag: rtr-xorg-branch-base 395Maintainer: Tyler R.

Most per architecture 421 changes need to be made in the pmap module. LFS is not 422 currently stable due interaction between the pagedaemon (?) 423 and the HOLDRELE() in lfs_segment.c. It may trash your 424 filesystem.. 425 426 Most of the locks replaced are now sleep/adaptive locks or 427 spin locks at IPL_VM. Assuming audio interrupt handlers 428 are made MP safe there are far fewer potential deadlocks 429 against the kernel lock. 430 431 v_interlock becomes an adaptive mutex so now acquring 432 it can potentially block, similarly for other locks 433 that were before simplelocks. This needs to be audited 434 carefully. 435 436 Use vnodes in general needs to be audited, as vnodes can 437 now be inspected without the kernel lock held. 438 439 Acquiring locks in the pmap module can now block, meaning 440 that the current pmap, cpu or lazy pmap status can change 441 out from underneath the requestor. This also needs to be 442 audited. 443 444 Currently, i386 has the necessary modifications, and has 445 trap handling and a few calls to allocators out from under 446 the kernel lock.

So it would be easier and cleaner 1096 to adjust that to deal w/ different block sizes. 1097 Also with UBC, all i/o is in terms of bytes at an offset 1098 with a certain length, so the exact block size isn't a big 1099 deal. 1100 1101 Any other wrstuden-devbsize tag may (and should) go away. 1102 1103Branch: yamt-km, yamt-km-doc 1104Description: simplify/improve kernel memory management and bootstrap 1105Status: Terminated; merged to -current 1106Start Date: Tue Jan 25 2005 1107End Date: Fri Apr 1 2005 1108Base Tag: yamt-km-base{,2,3,4}, yamt-km-doc-base 1109Maintainer: YAMAMOTO Takashi <yamt@NetBSD.org> 1110Scope: yamt-km: src/sys 1111 yamt-km-doc: src/share/man/man9/uvm.9 1112Notes: http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/tech-kern/2004/12/25/0005.html 1113 1114 the followings are per-port status. 1115 (account names mean "tested by".) 1116 1117 works enough to go to multiuser: 1118 alpha, i386, xen (yamt@) 1119 pc532 (simonb@) 1120 alpha, i386, mac68k, macppc, pmax, shark, 1121 sparc, sparc64, sun3, x68k (chs@) 1122 cobalt, dreamcast, hp300, news68k, newsmips, 1123 sun3x (tsutsui@) 1124 amiga (mhitch@) 1125 cats, hp700 (skrll@) 1126 xen (bouyer@) 1127 1128 known to have the same problem as trunk: 1129 vax (chs@, stuck while running kvm_mkdb) 1130 1131 known to have a problem: 1132 luna68k (and, if any, other m68k ports which use TTR) 1133 needs to be revisited. 1134 -> for luna68k, although not tested, 1135 Sysmap has been moved to avoid kva conflict with 1136 I/O ranges. 1137 1138 buildable: 1139 src/sys/arch/acorn26/conf/GENERIC 1140 src/sys/arch/acorn32/conf/GENERIC 1141 src/sys/arch/algor/conf/P6032 1142 src/sys/arch/alpha/conf/GENERIC 1143 src/sys/arch/alpha/conf/GENERIC.MP 1144 src/sys/arch/amd64/conf/GENERIC 1145 src/sys/arch/amd64/conf/GENERIC.MP 1146 src/sys/arch/amiga/conf/GENERIC 1147 src/sys/arch/arc/conf/GENERIC 1148 src/sys/arch/atari/conf/MILAN-PCIIDE 1149 src/sys/arch/bebox/conf/GENERIC 1150 src/sys/arch/cats/conf/GENERIC 1151 src/sys/arch/cesfic/conf/GENERIC 1152 src/sys/arch/cobalt/conf/GENERIC 1153 src/sys/arch/dreamcast/conf/GENERIC 1154 src/sys/arch/evbarm/conf/TS7200 1155 src/sys/arch/evbppc/conf/WALNUT 1156 src/sys/arch/evbsh3/conf/COMPUTEXEVB 1157 src/sys/arch/evbsh5/conf/CAYMAN64 1158 src/sys/arch/hp300/conf/GENERIC 1159 src/sys/arch/hp700/conf/GENERIC 1160 src/sys/arch/hpcarm/conf/JORNADA728 1161 src/sys/arch/hpcmips/conf/GENERIC 1162 src/sys/arch/hpcsh/conf/GENERIC 1163 src/sys/arch/hpcsh/conf/HPW650PA 1164 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC 1165 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC.MP 1166 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/XEN0 1167 src/sys/arch/i386/conf/XENU 1168 src/sys/arch/ibmnws/conf/GENERIC 1169 src/sys/arch/iyonix/conf/GENERIC 1170 src/sys/arch/luna68k/conf/GENERIC 1171 src/sys/arch/mac68k/conf/GENERIC 1172 src/sys/arch/macppc/conf/GENERIC 1173 src/sys/arch/macppc/conf/GENERIC.MP 1174 src/sys/arch/mipsco/conf/GENERIC 1175 src/sys/arch/mmeye/conf/GENERIC 1176 src/sys/arch/mvme68k/conf/GENERIC 1177 src/sys/arch/netwinder/conf/GENERIC 1178 src/sys/arch/news68k/conf/GENERIC 1179 src/sys/arch/newsmips/conf/GENERIC 1180 src/sys/arch/next68k/conf/GENERIC 1181 src/sys/arch/ofppc/conf/GENERIC 1182 src/sys/arch/pc532/conf/GENERIC 1183 src/sys/arch/pmax/conf/GENERIC 1184 src/sys/arch/prep/conf/GENERIC 1185 src/sys/arch/sandpoint/conf/GENERIC 1186 src/sys/arch/sbmips/conf/GENERIC 1187 src/sys/arch/sgimips/conf/GENERIC32_IP3x 1188 src/sys/arch/shark/conf/GENERIC 1189 src/sys/arch/sparc/conf/GENERIC 1190 src/sys/arch/sparc/conf/GENERIC.MP 1191 src/sys/arch/sparc64/conf/GENERIC 1192 src/sys/arch/sparc64/conf/GENERIC.MP 1193 src/sys/arch/sun2/conf/GENERIC 1194 src/sys/arch/sun3/conf/GENERIC 1195 src/sys/arch/vax/conf/GENERIC 1196 src/sys/arch/vax/conf/GENERIC.MP 1197 src/sys/arch/x68k/conf/GENERIC 1198 1199 src/sys/arch/playstation2/conf/GENERIC 1200 1201Branch: yamt-pdpolicy 1202Description: play with page replacement policy 1203 - separate page replacement policy from the rest of kernel 1204 - implement alternative replacement policy 1205 - related read-ahead adjustment?
