Remove $FreeBSD$: one-line sh pattern

Remove /^\s*#[#!]?\s*\$FreeBSD\$.*$\n/


# 64a0982b 04-Mar-2017 Enji Cooper <ngie@FreeBSD.org>

usr.sbin: normalize paths using SRCTOP-relative paths or :H when possible

This simplifies make logic/output

MFC after: 1 month

# 2b375b4e 27-Jan-2017 Yoshihiro Takahashi <nyan@FreeBSD.org>

Remove pc98 support completely.
I thank all developers and contributors for pc98.

Relnotes: yes


# a7d5f7eb 19-Oct-2010 Jamie Gritton <jamie@FreeBSD.org>

A new jail(8) with a configuration file, to replace the work currently done
by /etc/rc.d/jail.


# fe0506d7 09-Mar-2010 Marcel Moolenaar <marcel@FreeBSD.org>

Create the altix project branch. The altix project will add support
for the SGI Altix 350 to FreeBSD/ia64. The hardware used for porting
is a two-module system, consisting of a base compute module and a
CPU expansion module. SGI's NUMAFlex architecture can be an excellent
platform to test CPU affinity and NUMA-aware features in FreeBSD.


# 71ccf092 02-Jan-2010 Ed Schouten <ed@FreeBSD.org>

The last big commit: let usr.sbin/ use WARNS=6 by default.


# d7f03759 19-Oct-2008 Ulf Lilleengen <lulf@FreeBSD.org>

- Import the HEAD csup code which is the basis for the cvsmode work.


# 4c1f1c62 08-Jan-2005 Xin LI <delphij@FreeBSD.org>

Cleanup usr.sbin/fd* so they can compile under WARNS=6.

fdcontrol/fdcontrol.c:
- Add const constraint to an intermediate value
which is not supposed to be changed elsewhere.
fdread/fdread.c:
- Use _devname in favor of devname to avoid name
conflicit.
- -1 is less than any positive number so in order
to get the block to function, we should get the
block a little earlier.
- Cast to remove signed when we are sure that a
return value is positive, or is compared with
an positive number (tracknumber of a floppy
disk is not likely to have UINT_MAX/2 anyway)
fdread/fdutil.c:
- Use more specific initializer
fdwrite/fdwrite.c:
- Use static on format_track since it's not
referenced in other places.
- Use const char* to represent string constant.

Bump WARNS accordingly.


# e152198a 08-Jan-2005 Xin LI <delphij@FreeBSD.org>

Follow style.Makefile(5):
WARNS comes before CFLAGS

This reduces diff against my local branch.


# 1a06a03c 28-Mar-2004 Yoshihiro Takahashi <nyan@FreeBSD.org>

Add PC98 supports.

Submitted by: Watanabe Kazuhiro <CQG00620@nifty.ne.jp> (mostly)


# 487fc286 25-Feb-2004 Bruce Evans <bde@FreeBSD.org>

Backed out previous commit (bogus addition of -static to CFLAGS).

Sorted macros (in build order).


# 9b28b5e6 25-Feb-2004 Poul-Henning Kamp <phk@FreeBSD.org>

Recognize "auto" format.

Be more verbose when asked to.

Long promised major enhancement set for the floppy disk driver:

. The main device node now supports automatic density selection for
commonly used media densities. So you can stuff your 1.44 MB and
720 KB media into your drive and just access /dev/fd0, no questions
asked. It's all that easy, isn't it? :)

. Device density handling has been completely overhauled. The old way
of hardwired kernel density knowledge is no longer there. Instead,
the kernel now implements 16 subdevices per drive. The first
subdevice uses automatic density selection, while the remaining 15
devices are freely programmable. They can be assigned an arbitrary
name of the form /dev/fd[:digit]+.[:digit:]{1,4}, where the second
number is meant to either implement device names that are mnemonic
for their raw capacity (as it used to be), or they can alternatively
be created as "anonymous" devices like fd0.1 through fd0.15,
depending on the taste of the administrator. After creating a
subdevice, it is initialized to the maximal native density of the
respective drive type, so it needs to be customized for other
densities by using fdcontrol(8). Pseudo-partition devices (fd0a
through fd0h) are still supported as symlinks.

. The old hack to use flags 0x1 to always assume drive 0 were there is
no longer supported; this is now supposed to be done by wiring the
devices down from the loader via device flags. On IA32
architectures, the first two drives are looked up in the CMOS
configuration records though. On PCMCIA (i. e., the Y-E Data
controller of the Toshiba Libretto), a single drive is always
assumed.

. Other specialities like disabling the FIFO and not probing the drive
at boot-time are selected by per-controller or per-drive flags, too.

. Unit attentions (media has been changed) are supposed to be detected
now; density autoselection only occurs after a unit attention. (Can
be turned off by a per-drive flag, this will cause each Fdopen() to
perform the autoselection.)

. FM floppies can be handled now (on controllers that actually support
it -- not all do these days).

. Fdopen() can be told to avoid density selection by setting
O_NONBLOCK; this leaves the descriptor in a half-opened state where
only a few ioctls are accepted. This is necessary to run fdformat
on a device that uses automatic density selection (since you cannot
autoselect on an unformatted medium, obviously).

. Just differentiate between a plain old NE765 and the enhanced chips,
but don't try more; the existing code was wrong and only misdetected
the chips anyway.

BUGS and TODOs:

. All documentation update still needs to be done.

. Formatting not-so-standard format yields unpredictable results; i
have yet to figure out why this happens. "Standard" formats like
720 and 1440 KB do work, however.

. rc scripts are needed to setup device nodes with nonstandard
densities (like the old /dev/fdN.MMM we used to have).

. Obtaining device flags from the kernel environment doesn't work yet,
thus currently only drives that are present in (IA32) CMOS are
really detected. Someone who knows the odds and ends about device
flags is needed here, i can't figure out what i'm doing wrong.

. 2.88 MB still needs to be done.


# 90e655ea 20-Jul-2001 David E. O'Brien <obrien@FreeBSD.org>

Perform a major cleanup of the usr.sbin Makefiles.
These are not perfectly in agreement with each other style-wise, but they
are orders of orders of magnitude more consistent style-wise than before.


# 015fadf9 26-Jun-2001 Dima Dorfman <dd@FreeBSD.org>

Add appropriate includes and prototypes; staticize; set WARNS=2. Also
minor Makefile nits.

# 345e52e7 26-Mar-2001 Ruslan Ermilov <ru@FreeBSD.org>

- Backout botched attempt to introduce MANSECT feature.
- MAN[1-9] -> MAN.


# c73e22c3 20-Mar-2001 Ruslan Ermilov <ru@FreeBSD.org>

Set the default manual section for usr.sbin/ to 8.


# e9e8f7b7 30-Oct-1994 Joerg Wunsch <joerg@FreeBSD.org>

Import the fdcontrol command. It has been in 1.1.5, but obviously has been lost on its way to 2.0.
This program uses the FD_DEBUG ioctl, which will have to be commited yet.
