spdx: The BSD-2-Clause-FreeBSD identifier is obsolete, drop -FreeBSD

The SPDX folks have obsoleted the BSD-2-Clause-FreeBSD identifier. Catch
up to that fact and revert to their recommended match of BSD-2-Clause.

various: general adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

No functional change intended.


# 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.


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

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


# 057f1760 04-Sep-2004 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

Make ppp WARNS=5 clean


# 30949fd4 14-Aug-2001 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

o Add ipv6 support, abstracting most NCP addresses into opaque
structures (well, they're treated as opaque).

It's now possible to manage IPv6 interface addresses and routing
table entries and to filter IPV6 traffic whether encapsulated or
not.

IPV6CP support is crude for now, and hasn't been tested against
any other implementations.

RADIUS and IPv6 are independent of eachother for now.

ppp.linkup/ppp.linkdown aren't currently used by IPV6CP

o Understand all protocols(5) in filter rules rather than only a select
few.

o Allow a mask specification for the ``delete'' command. It's now
possible to specifically delete one of two conflicting routes.

o When creating and deleting proxy arp entries, do it for all IPv4
interface addresses rather than doing it just for the ``current''
peer address.

o When iface-alias isn't in effect, don't blow away manually (via ``iface
add'') added interface addresses.

o When listening on a tcp server (diagnostic) socket, bind so that a
tcp46 socket is created -- allowing both IPv4 and IPv6 connections.

o When displaying ICMP traffic, don't display the icmp type twice.
When display traffic, display at least some information about unrecognised
traffic.

o Bump version

# f013f33e 13-Mar-2000 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

To avoid namespace polution in NetBSD:

``struct descriptor'' -> ``struct fdescriptor''


# 82de8666 16-Jan-2000 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

Use AUTHLEN for the length of authname


# 97d92980 27-Aug-1999 Peter Wemm <peter@FreeBSD.org>

$Id$ -> $FreeBSD$


# ab2de065 05-Aug-1999 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

o Obsolete the undocumented ``set weight'' command.
o If we're using RADIUS and the RADIUS mtu is less than our
peers mru/mrru, reduce our mtu to this value for NetBSD too.
o Make struct throughput's sample period dynamic and tweak the ppp
version number to reflect the extra stuff being passed through
the local domain socket as a result (MP mode).
o Measure the current throughput based on the number of samples actually
taken rather than on the full sample period.
o Keep the throughput statisics persistent while being passed to
another ppp invocation through the local domain socket.
o When showing throughput statistics after the timer has stopped, use
the stopped time for overall calculations, not the current time.
Also show the stopped time and how long the current throughput has
been sampled for.
o Use time() consistently in throughput.c
o Tighten up the ``show bundle'' output.
o Introduce the ``set bandwidth'' command.
o Rewrite the ``set autoload'' command. It now takes three arguments
and works based on a rolling bundle throughput average compared against
the theoretical bundle bandwidth over a given period (read: it's now
functional).


# 7063995c 09-Jun-1999 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

Allow our endpoint discriminator to be enabled, disabled, accepted
and denied. This is necessary for some MP implementations that
get confused if you accept their endpoint discriminator but reject
their MRRU.


# 5d9e6103 08-May-1999 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

o Redesign the layering mechanism and make the aliasing code part of
the layering.

We now ``stack'' layers as soon as we open the device (when we figure
out what we're dealing with). A static set of `dispatch' routines are
also declared for dealing with incoming packets after they've been
`pulled' up through the stacked layers.

Physical devices are now assigned handlers based on the device type
when they're opened. For the moment there are three device types;
ttys, execs and tcps.

o Increment version number to 2.2
o Make an entry in [uw]tmp for non-tty -direct invocations (after
pap/chap authentication).
o Make throughput counters quad_t's
o Account for the absolute number of mbuf malloc()s and free()s in
``show mem''.
o ``show modem'' becomes ``show physical''.


# 6f8e9f0a 25-Aug-1998 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

If we've got a full output buffer queue and cannot send
anything for two mintues (see ``set choked'' and ``show
bundle''), nuke the ip, mp and link level buffer queues.

This should fix problems where ``ppp -auto'' seems to stop
responding after failing to connect to the peer a few times.


# 86b1f0d7 23-May-1998 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

o Make sure we adjust our min seq and process any outstanding queued
incoming fragments when a link goes down.
o Don't use the minimum sequence numbers of links that aren't open.
o Understand sequence number wrapping when determining the minimum
sequence number.
o Add & adjust a few comments.


# 9c53a7b1 03-May-1998 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

o Display current link throughput in `show links' (assuming
throughput measurement is enabled).
o Load balance the links based on weight *and* on a round-robin
basis. This makes things fairly even on an output basis. We
don't try to allow for the peer sending all his data down one
link (and try to send ours back up the other).
o Show the number of pending input buffers that can't be processed
in ``show mp''.
o Fix a typo in the man page.


# 96c9bb21 02-May-1998 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

o Transfer file descriptors using {send,recv}msg & SCM_RIGHTS,
using the scatter/gather array to transfer the link
information. The whole link is now passed in one message.

This is far better than the two `/bin/cat' processes per additional
link :-) I remember years ago thinking that file descriptor
transferral would be a really amazing facility !

# dd7e2610 01-May-1998 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

Cosmetic: Make our external function names consistent.


# 6f384573 30-Apr-1998 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

o Create a new ``timer'' log level. This lets us ``set
log debug'' without filling our filesystem/screen with
junk that we don't really want to see.
o change PHYS_STDIN to PHYS_DIRECT - we can handle incoming
connections that aren't on STDIN_FILENO now.
o Allow return values from our FSM LayerUp functions. If
LayerUp() fails, the FSM does an immediate FsmDown() without
calling the fsm_parent's Layer{Up,Down} functions.
o Clear the close-on-exec flag of file descriptor 3 when executing
chat programs so that our documented ability to communicate with
/dev/tty via that descriptor works. Also document it as
descriptor 3, not 4 :-O
o Allow a ``rm'' command as an alias for ``remove''.
o Fix the bind()/connect()/accept() calls made by the MP server.
o Create bundle_SendDatalink() and bundle_ReceiveDatalink().
This allows `struct datalink's to flatten themselves, pass
through a pipe (read: the eye of a needle !) and come alive
at the other end. The donator then fork()s & exec()s pppmpipe,
``passing'' the connection to another ppp instance.

*** PPP NOW TALKS MULTILINK :-))) ***

Our link utilization is hideous, and lots of code needs
tidying still. It's also probably riddled with bugs !
It's been tested against itself only, and has hung once,
so confidence isn't high....


# 1fa665f5 27-Apr-1998 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

o Add the link name to modem diagnostics.
o Create struct mpserver as part of struct mp.
mpserver creates a unix-domain socket based on the
peers auth name and endpoint discriminator. If it
already exists, ppp will ``pass the link'' over to
the owner of the socket, joining it into the bundle
of another ppp invocation, otherwise ppp waits for
other invocations to pass it links through this
socket.
The final piece of code will be the code that flattens
our datalink info and passes it down this channel
(not yet implemented).


# 184d1da2 24-Apr-1998 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

Show our link name when we fail to mp_Up().


# 643f4904 24-Apr-1998 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

o Defer setting up pap/chap based IP numbers & labels until after
we've determined if we're going to join another ppp invocation.
o Make ``show link'' show all link details, and ``show links''
just give a list of links and their current status.
o Show our current label in ``show bundle''.
o Allow link cloning and removal as soon as our MRRU is set.
o Make ``show lcp'' require context as nothing will ever change
in our MP LCP (it's auto-configured as per rfc1990).
o Initialise our LQM owner in hdlc_Init().
o Store our endpoint discriminator and authentication name at both
the datalink and multilink level and compare them when we've
finished AUTHENTICATE phase and before entering NETWORK phase.
If they don't match, close the link again.
Display the information in the appropriate ``show'' command.
o Initialise datalink::phone and datalink::fsmp.object properly
when we're cloning the link.
o Show which link we're passing LQRs on in our diagnostics.
o Reject endpoint discriminator REQs at the logical multilink
level.
o Remove the rest of our CARRIER and LINK logging setup.


# 08676022 23-Apr-1998 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

Create #defines for all endpoint discriptor classes,
and allow `set enddisc mac'.


# 673903ec 23-Apr-1998 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

o Initialise MP correctly depending on if we're the
first link in mp_Up().
o Bring MP and its CCP down when we enter phase TERMINATE,
and ditch everything in the incoming packet queue.
o Enable MRRU negotiation. Now, we can multilink
mode, but only with one physical link.
o Close the link if the peer PROTO REJs PROTO_MP.
o Prepend our protocol before passing a packet to
struct mp for fragmentation.
o Log info messages to DEBUG, not ERROR (oops).
o Align `show mp' output (again).


# 49052c95 22-Apr-1998 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

Negotiate MRRU, SHORTSEQ and ENDDISC. ENDDISC doesn't imply
multilink ('cos I've seen my ISP REQ it without multilink).

Setting MRRU is ifdef'd out until it's debugged and we can
merge -direct links with other running programs.

Fix MTU setting.


# 2764b86a 06-Apr-1998 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

o Move alias function pointers into loadalias.c
o Move Var*Version into command.c
o Remove struct pppVars (and there was much rejoicing) !
o Forward-decl some structs in .h files to avoid include
ordering requirements and remove a few more redundant
#includes.


# 3b0f8d2e 03-Apr-1998 Brian Somers <brian@FreeBSD.org>

o Move struct lcp and struct ccp into struct link.
o Remove bundle2lcp(), bundle2ccp() and bundle2link().
They're too resource-hungry and we have `owner pointers'
to do their job.
o Make our FSM understand LCPs that are always ST_OPENED
(with a minimum code that != 1).
o Send FSM code rejects for invalid codes.
o Make our bundle fsm_parent deal with multiple links.
o Make timer diagnostics pretty and allow access via ~t
in `term' mode (not just when logging debug) and
`show timers'. Only show timers every second in debug
mode, otherwise we get too many diagnostics to be useful
(we probably still do). Also, don't restrict ~m in term
mode to depend on debug logging.
o Rationalise our bundles' phases.
o Create struct mp (multilink protocol). This is both an
NCP and a type of struct link. It feeds off other NCPs
for output, passing fragmented packets into the queues
of available datalinks. It also gets PROTO_MP input,
reassembles the fragments into ppp frames, and passes
them back to the HDLC layer that the fragments were passed
from.
** It's not yet possible to enter multilink mode :-( **
o Add `set weight' (requires context) for deciding on a links
weighting in multilink mode. Weighting is simplistic (and
probably badly implemented) for now.
o Remove the function pointers in struct link. They ended up
only applying to physical links.
o Configure our tun device with an MTU equal to the MRU from
struct mp's LCP and a speed equal to the sum of our link
speeds.
o `show {lcp,ccp,proto}' and `set deflate' now have optional
context and use ChooseLink() to decide on which `struct link'
to use. This allows behaviour as before when in non-multilink
mode, and allows access to the MP logical link in multilink
mode.
o Ignore reconnect and redial values when in -direct mode and
when cleaning up. Always redial when in -ddial or -dedicated
mode (unless cleaning up).
o Tell our links to `staydown' when we close them due to a signal.
o Remove remaining `#ifdef SIGALRM's (ppp doesn't function without
alarms).
o Don't bother strdup()ing our physical link name.
o Various other cosmetic changes.
