Features ======== This file documents feature changes at a very high level. A '-' means that the support for that feature was removed, a '+' means that the support for that feature was added, and a '*' means that the behavior was changed. <next> release -------------- - /etc/log symlink & /var/adm/log directory - /etc/[uw]tmpx symlink - /usr/adm symlink * moved all /var/adm files to /var/log * moved /var/svc/log to /var/log/svc 1.3 release ----------- - ksh93 (/sbin/sh, /bin/ksh93, /bin/rksh93) and related libraries (libast, libcmd, libdll, libpp, libshell, libsum) are no more. - nonstandard getgrent_r, fgetgrent_r removed from libc - wordexp & wordfree removed from libc - sgtty.h removed, including stty() and gtty() - nightly.sh is no more; see README.md for updated build instructions * removed posix.1c draft versions, and made default the standard versions, of the libc functions getgrgid_r, getgrnam_r, ttyname_r, getlogin_r * removed non-posix versions of the libc functions shmdt, sigwait, gethostname, putmsg, putpmsg, getaddrinfo + _XOPEN_SOURCE=700 and __EXTENSIONS__ are defined by default, if not specified. most third-party software already uses these on Solarises in an attempt to get a somewhat sane compilation environment + all applications automatically use 64-bit files. using the LFS/"large file" interfaces _LARGEFILE_SOURCE, _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE and _FILE_OFFSET_BITS is no longer necessary. + various improvements have been made to shorten the build time. + the installer user interface has been simplified considerably. 1.2 release ----------- - libfruraw, libnvfru, libfru, libfrureg, libfruutils - libpicl, libpicltree, picld(8), etc. - pyzfs & pysolaris - locator(8) - auditing support and libbsm + ship ctfconvert & ctfmerge in /usr/bin * hwdata updated to 2018.11.29 * tzdata updated to 2018g * libressl 2.8.2 * uname(1) returns "amd64" for -m and -p * sysinfo(SI_ARCHITECTURE) returns "amd64" (or "i386" when UNAME_LEGACY is in the environment) * rename vnode interface's AT_* to VATTR_* 1.1 release ----------- - hsfs-formatted boot archive support - libc compat symbols: _nuname, __posix_readdir_r, __threaded - binary compatibility bread/bwrite/bwrite2/getblk kernel symbols - libxnet and libsocket filter libraries - libm.so.1 (legacy libm) - shcomp(1) and the ability to run "compiled" ksh93 shell scripts (shbinexec) - useless ksh93 /usr/bin builtins: cd, command, history, jobs, limit, print, read, type, umask, wait - jsh & jsh93 + ship libcmdutils.so & libuutil.so compilation symlinks * ship openbsd ksh as /bin/sh (/bin/ksh93, /bin/rksh93, and /sbin/sh remain ksh93) * convert BREAD/BWRITE/BWRITE2/GETBLK macros to bread/bwrite/bwrite2/getblk static inlines * collapse driver packages into system/kernel * replace ksh93 /usr/bin builtins with real programs imported from OpenBSD: comm, cut, join, kill, logname, paste, rev, sleep, tee, test, uniq, wc * autofs is disabled by default * zoneinfo data moved from /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo to /usr/share/zoneinfo 1.0 release ----------- - 32-bit x86 kernel support (32-bit x86 applications are still supported) - sparc support - xen domU and dom0 support - Trusted Solaris aka. Trusted Extensions - SVR4 pkg support & code - solaris10 zone brand - GRUB - ndd(8) (use ipadm(8) and dladm(8) instead) - closed source components were removed, including: - in.iked(8) and related utilities - kmdb modules: mpt and nfs - kernel drivers: atiatom, bnx, ixgb, sdpib, usbser_edge, glm, mpt, adpu320, bcm_sata, lsimega, marvel88sx, acpi_toshiba, intel_nhmex - avs ("Sun StorageTek Availability Suite") - tcopy(1) - /usr/ucb and libbc ("SunOS/BSD Compatibility Package") - rdist(1), rcp(1), rlogin(1), rlogind(1m), rsh(1), rshd(1m) - uucp services (uuencode and uudecode are still present) - libslp, slpd ("Service Location Protocol daemon") - Java bits: poold(8), libzfs_jni, libadt_jni, libdtrace_jni, DTrace Java support, parts of libdns_sd - Sun Studio and lint build support - getpwent_r(3c), fgetpwent_r(3c), which are non-standard and were different from other OSes - getpw(3c) - POSIX.1c Draft versions of several reentrant functions were removed. Applications using the draft versions have to be modified; users of the standard versions are unaffected. - readdir_r - getpwuid_r - getpwnam_r - c_synonyms.so - drop support for Riyadh87, Riyadh88, and Riyadh89 timezones - routeadm(1m), svc:/network/routing/legacy-routing, svc:/network/ipv[46]-forwarding removed. use ipadm to manage forwarding and smf to manage the routing-related daemons. - xpg4, xpg6 directories were removed, utilities moved to /usr/bin. - troff(1), nroff(1), addbib(1), checknr(1), deroff(1), diffmk(1), eqn(1), indxbib(1), lookbib(1), refer(1), roffbib(1), soelim(1), tbl(1), ul(1), vgrind(1), /usr/bin/makedev /usr/bin/ta removed -- made obsolete by mandoc - pre-XPG5 behavior: ungetwc(3c), putwchar(3c), putwc(3c), fputwc(3c), fputws(3c), fgetwc(3c), getwc(3c), getwchar(3c), fgetws(3c) - C89 behavior: fprintf(3c), fscanf(3c), fwprintf(3c), fwscanf(3c), printf(3c), scanf(3c), snprintf(3c), sprintf(3c), sscanf(3c), swprintf(3c), swscanf(3c), vfprintf(3c), vfscanf(3c), vfwprintf(3c), vfwscanf(3c), vprintf(3c), vscanf(3c), vsnprintf(3c), vsprintf(3c), vsscanf(3c), vswprintf(3c), vswscanf(3c), vwprintf(3c), vwscanf(3c), wprintf(3c), wscanf(3c) + awk(1) replaced with a version imported from FreeBSD + libcurses, libxcurses, libxcurses2, terminfo were replaced by ncurses + grep(1) replaced with a version imported from FreeBSD + errc(3), warnc(3) were added to libc + fts(3) added to libc + reallocarray(3) added to libc + LibreSSL (libcrypto, libssl, libtls, openssl(1), nc(1)) added + cpio-formatted boot archives * man(1) is mandoc. mandoc.db support added, eliminating the need for manpage symlinks. * socket interfaces are now in libc. libsocket, libxnet and libnsl remain as filter libraries. * socket implementation was modified to be more reasonable by default, and it is no longer possible to choose an alternate socket implementation. msg_accrights was removed and msg_control members are now always visible in struct msghdr. Documentation was updated and moved to section 2: accept(2), bind(2), connect(2), getpeername(2), getsockname(2), getsockopt(2), listen(2), recv(2), send(2), shutdown(2), socket(2), socketpair(2), and the new sockatmark(2) and CMSG_DATA(3) * make(1) is bmake(1) instead of dmake(1) * sed(1) replaced with a version imported from FreeBSD * locale data has been updated to CLDR v28; tools to generate it were imported from FreeBSD. This fixes many character classification errors. * install(1m) was replaced by install(1) from OpenBSD. * all process security flags are on by default * putwchar(3c), putwc(3c), fputwc(3c), and fputws(3c) have only XPG5 behavior * man pages from section 1M have been moved to section 8; third party code (libncurses, namely) is not affected
