|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>IEEE 802.11 wireless stack improvements:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>With the new 'join' feature (managed with <a
|
|
href="http://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig#IEEE_802.11_(WIRELESS_DEVICES)">
|
|
ifconfig(8)</a>), the kernel manages automatic switching between
|
|
different WiFi networks.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig.8">ifconfig(8)</a>
|
|
scan performance has been improved for many devices.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>Generic network stack improvements:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/trunk.4">trunk(4)</a>
|
|
now has LACP administrative knobs for mode, timeout, system priority,
|
|
port priority, and ifq priority.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig.8">ifconfig(8)</a>
|
|
now has the ability to adjust LACP administrative knobs
|
|
<code>lacpmode</code> and <code>lacptimeout</code>.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sendmsg.2">sendmsg(2)</a>,
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sendto.2">sendto(2)</a>,
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/recvfrom.2">recvfrom(2)</a> and
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/recvmsg.2">recvmsg(2)</a> are
|
|
run without KERNEL_LOCK.
|
|
<li>New global IPsec counters are available via
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/netstat.1">netstat(1)</a>.
|
|
<li>New <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/eoip.4">eoip(4)</a>
|
|
interface for the MikroTik Ethernet over IP (EoIP)
|
|
encapsulation protocol.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>Installer improvements:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/installurl.5">installurl(5)</a> now
|
|
defaults to
|
|
<a href="ftp.html">cdn.openbsd.org</a> if
|
|
no mirror was chosen during installation.
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pkg_add.1">pkg_add(1)</a> and
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/syspatch.8">syspatch(8)</a>
|
|
will thus work out of the box.
|
|
<li>DUID can be used to answer the "Which disk is the root disk?"
|
|
question during upgrade.
|
|
<li>Installing a
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/diskless.8">diskless(8)</a>
|
|
setup can be done over interfaces configured with
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhclient.8">dhclient(8)</a>.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/disklabel.8">disklabel(8)</a>
|
|
now creates a /usr/obj partition with a minimum size of 5G when using
|
|
automatic disk allocation.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/disklabel.8">disklabel(8)</a>
|
|
now creates a /usr/local partition with a maximum size of 20G when
|
|
using automatic disk allocation.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>Security improvements:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>New <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/unveil.2">unveil(2)</a>
|
|
system call to restrict file system access of the calling
|
|
process to the specified files and directories. It is most
|
|
powerful when properly combined with privilege separation
|
|
and <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pledge.2">pledge(2)</a>.
|
|
<li>Implemented MAP_STACK option for
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/mmap.2">mmap(2)</a>.
|
|
At pagefaults and syscalls the kernel will check that the
|
|
stack pointer points to MAP_STACK memory, which mitigates
|
|
against attacks using stack pivots.
|
|
<li>New RETGUARD security mechanism on amd64 and arm64:
|
|
use per-function random cookies to protect access to function
|
|
return instructions, making them harder to use in ROP gadgets.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/clang-local.1">clang(1)</a>
|
|
includes a pass that identifies common instructions which
|
|
may be useful in ROP gadgets and replaces them with safe
|
|
alternatives on amd64 and i386.
|
|
<li>The Retpoline mitigation against Spectre Variant 2 has been
|
|
enabled in <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/clang.1">clang(1)</a>
|
|
and in assembly files on amd64 and i386.
|
|
<li>Added SpectreRSB mitigation on amd64.
|
|
<li>Added Intel L1 Terminal Fault mitigation on amd64.
|
|
<li>When available, PCIDs are used on amd64 to separate user
|
|
and kernel thread TLB entries.
|
|
<li>Meltdown mitigation was added to i386.
|
|
<li>amd64 now uses eager-FPU switching to prevent FPU state
|
|
information speculatively leaking across protection boundaries.
|
|
<li>Because Simultaneous MultiThreading (SMT) uses core resources in
|
|
a shared and unsafe manner, it is now disabled by default.
|
|
It can be enabled with the new <code>hw.smt</code>
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sysctl.2">sysctl(2)</a> variable.
|
|
<li>Audio recording is now disabled by default and can be enabled
|
|
with the new <code>kern.audio.record</code>
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sysctl.2">sysctl(2)</a> variable.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/getpwnam.3">getpwnam(3)</a> and
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/getpwnam.3">getpwuid(3)</a> no
|
|
longer return a pointer to static storage but a managed allocation
|
|
which gets unmapped. This allows detection of access to stale entries.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a> includes
|
|
improved defence against user enumeration attacks.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>Routing daemons and other userland network improvements:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospf6d.8">ospf6d(8)</a> can now set
|
|
the metric for a route depending on the status of an interface.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospf6d.8">ospf6d(8)</a> can now be
|
|
bound into an alternate routing domain.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospf6d.8">ospf6d(8)</a> is
|
|
now pledged.
|
|
<li>Prevent <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospfd.8">ospfd(8)</a> and
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ospf6d.8">ospf6d(8)</a> from being
|
|
started more than once (in the same routing domain).
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/slaacd.8">slaacd(8)</a> is now fully
|
|
pledged.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/slaacd.8">slaacd(8)</a> is informed by
|
|
the kernel when Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) fails and generates
|
|
different addresses when possible.
|
|
<li>When <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/slaacd.8">slaacd(8)</a> detects
|
|
roaming between networks, it deprecates all configured IPs. IPs from
|
|
newly advertised prefixes will be preferred.
|
|
<li>A new daemon, <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/rad.8">rad(8)</a>, sends
|
|
IPv6 Router Advertisement messages and replaces the old rtadvd(8)
|
|
daemon from KAME.
|
|
<li>The anachronistic
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/OpenBSD-6.3/networks.5">networks(5)</a>
|
|
configuration file is no longer supported.
|
|
<li>More robust <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pfctl.8">pfctl(8)</a>
|
|
parsing routines and corner case fixes around table and anchor
|
|
handling.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/route.8">route(8)</a> now errors out
|
|
on bad <code>-netmask/-prefixlen</code> usage instead of configuring
|
|
ambiguous routes.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhclient.8">dhclient(8)</a>
|
|
now adds a direct route to the default route gateway when the
|
|
gateway is not reachable via the address/netmask provided by the
|
|
lease.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhclient.8">dhclient(8)</a>
|
|
now updates
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhclient.leases.5">dhclient.leases(5)</a>,
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/resolv.conf.5">resolv.conf(5)</a>,
|
|
and any '-L'
|
|
file before daemonizing and returning control
|
|
to invoking scripts.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhclient.8">dhclient(8)</a>'s
|
|
'-i' option now discards any previously defined values for the options
|
|
to be ignored.
|
|
<li>Any change to any interface now causes
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhclient.8">dhclient(8)</a>
|
|
to appropriately update
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/resolv.conf.5">resolv.conf(5)</a>.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhclient.8">dhclient(8)</a>
|
|
now always records the client identifier used to obtain a lease,
|
|
enabling better conformance to RFC 6842.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhclient.8">dhclient(8)</a>
|
|
now has the '-r' option to release the current lease and exit.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhclient.8">dhclient(8)</a>
|
|
now avoids inappropriate changes to
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/resolv.conf.5">resolv.conf(5)</a>
|
|
by ignoring
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhclient.leases.5">dhclient.leases(5)</a>
|
|
for interfaces that cannot report their link status.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a> improvements:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The default filter action was changed from allow to deny.
|
|
<li>The config option 'announce (all|self|none|default-route)'
|
|
has been deprecated and superseded by filter configuration.
|
|
<li>Improved prefix-sets both in speed and user experience.
|
|
<li>Introduced as-sets to match ASPATH against large lists of AS numbers.
|
|
<li>Support for BGP Origin Validation
|
|
<a href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6811">RFC 6811</a>
|
|
through the <code>roa-set</code> directive.
|
|
<li>Added origin-sets for matching prefix / origin AS pairs efficiently.
|
|
<li>Some syntax cleanups: newlines are optional inside expansion
|
|
lists (previously newlines needed to be escaped) but, in neighbor,

|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/systat.1">systat(1)</a> now report
|
|
the time spent by each CPU waiting on spinning locks.
|
|
<li>Improved read speed on MSDOSFS via clustering.
|

<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/systat.1">systat(1)</a>
|
|
has a new uvm view that displays statistics relevant to the UVM subsystem.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/mg.1">mg(1)</a>

|
now handles carriage returns during incremental search by setting the
|
|
mark and exiting the search, as modern emacsen do.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/disklabel.8">disklabel(8)</a>

things up considerably.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>OpenSMTPD
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Incompatible change to the
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/smtpd.conf.5">smtpd.conf(5)</a>
|
|
grammar: separate envelope matching, which happens during the
|
|
SMTP dialogue while receiving a message and merely results
|
|
in assigning an action name, from delivery actions, which do
|
|
not take effect until the queue runner makes a delivery attempt.
|
|
This gets rid of several different roadblocks in OpenSMTPD
|
|
development.
|
|
<li>Improve SMTP server engine with a new RFC 5322 message parser.
|
|
<li>Remove limitations preventing
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/smtpd.8">smtpd(8)</a>
|
|
from dealing with clients submitting long lines.
|
|
<li>Improve security by moving expansion of .forward file variables
|
|
into the users' MDA process.
|
|
<li>Introduce MDA wrappers allowing recipient MDA commands to be
|
|
transparently wrapped inside global commands.
|
|
<li>A new <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/smtp.1">smtp(1)</a>
|
|
command line client has been added.
|
|
<li>Assorted documentation improvements, cleanups and minor bug fixes.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li><a href="https://www.openssh.com/releasenotes.html#7.9">OpenSSH 7.9</a>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>New features:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>In most places
|
|
in <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>
|
|
and <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a> where
|
|
port numbers are used, service names (from /etc/services) can
|
|
now be used.
|
|
<li>The <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>
|
|
IdentityAgent configuration directive now accepts environment
|
|
variable names. This supports the use of multiple agent
|
|
sockets without needing to use fixed paths.
|
|
<li>Support signalling sessions via the SSH protocol in
|
|
<a href="http://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a>.
|
|
<li>"ssh -Q sig" can be used to list supported signature
|
|
options. Also "ssh -Q help" will show the full set of
|
|
supported queries.
|
|
<li>The new CASignatureAlgorithms option
|
|
in <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>
|
|
and <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a>
|
|
controls the allowed signature formats for CAs to sign
|
|
certificates with. For example, this allows banning CAs that
|
|
sign certificates using the RSA-SHA1 signature algorithm.
|
|
<li>Key revocation lists (KRLs) can now contain keys specified
|
|
by SHA256 hash. These lists are managed
|
|
by <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ssh-keygen.8">ssh-keygen(8)</a>. In
|
|
addition, KRLs can now be created from base64-encoded SHA256
|
|
fingerprints, i.e. from only the information contained
|
|
in <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a>
|
|
authentication log messages.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<li>Non-exhaustive list of bug fixes:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>:
|
|
<a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ssh-keygen.1">ssh-keygen(1)</a>:
|
|
avoid spurious "invalid format" errors when attempting to load
|
|
PEM private keys while using an incorrect passphrase.
|
|
<li><a href="http://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a>: when a
|
|
channel closed message is received from a client, close the
|
|
stderr file descriptor at the same time stdout is closed. This
|
|
avoids stuck processes if they were waiting for stderr to
|
|
close and were insensitive to stdin/out closing.
|
|
<li><a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>: allow
|
|
ForwardX11Timeout=0 to disable the untrusted X11 forwarding
|
|
timeout and support X11 forwarding indefinitely. Previously
|
|
the behaviour of ForwardX11Timeout=0 was undefined.
|
|
<li><a href="http://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a>: do not
|
|
fail closed when configured with a text key revocation list
|
|
that contains a too-short key.
|
|
<li><a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>: treat
|
|
connections with ProxyJump specified the same as ones with a
|
|
ProxyCommand set with regards to hostname canonicalisation
|
|
(i.e. don't try to canonicalise the hostname unless
|
|
CanonicalizeHostname is set to 'always').
|
|
<li><a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>: fix
|
|
regression in OpenSSH 7.8 that could prevent public-key
|
|
authentication using certificates hosted in
|
|
a <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ssh-agent.1">ssh-agent(1)</a> or
|
|
against <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a>
|
|
from OpenSSH <7.8.

|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>API and Documentation Enhancements
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>X.509 verification is now more strict so
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_flags.3">X509_VERIFY_PARAM</a>
|
|
host, ip or email failure will cause future
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/X509_verify_cert.3">X509_verify_cert(3)</a>
|
|
calls to fail.
|
|
<li>Support for single DES cipher suites is removed.
|
|
<li>Support for RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 (RFC 8017) is added to
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/man3/RSA_sign.3">RSA_sign(3)</a>
|
|
<li>Modified signature of <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/CRYPTO_mem_leaks.3">CRYPTO_mem_leaks_*(3)</a> to return -1. This function
|
|
is a no-op in LibreSSL, so this function returns an error to not
|
|
indicate the (non-)existence of memory leaks.
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/SSL_copy_session_id.3">SSL_copy_session_id(3)</a>, PEM_Sign, <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/EVP_EncodeUpdate.3">EVP_EncodeUpdate(3)</a>, <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/BIO_set_cipher.3">BIO_set_cipher(3)</a>, <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/X509_OBJECT_up_ref_count.3">X509_OBJECT_up_ref_count(3)</a> now return an int for error handling, matching OpenSSL.
|
|
<li>Converted a number of #defines into proper functions, matching
|
|
OpenSSL's ABI (e.g. <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/X509_CRL_get_issuer.3">X509_CRL_get_issuer(3)</a> and other X509_*get*(3) functions)
|
|
<li>Added X509_get0_serialNumber(3) from OpenSSL.
|
|
<li>Removed EVP_PKEY2PKCS8_broken(3) and PKCS8_set_broken(3), while adding
|
|
PKCS8_pkey_add1_attr_by_NID(3) and PKCS8_pkey_get0_attrs(3), matching
|
|
OpenSSL.
|
|
<li>Removed broken pkcs8 formats from <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/openssl.1">openssl(1)</a>.
|
|
<li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/RSA_meth_get_finish.3">RSA_meth_get_finish(3)</a> and <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/RSA_meth_set1_name.3">RSA_meth_set1_name(3)</a> from OpenSSL.
|
|
<li>Added new <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/EVP_CIPHER_CTX_get_iv.3">EVP_CIPHER_CTX_(get|set)_iv(3)</a> API that allows the IV to be retrieved and set with appropriate validation.
|
|
<li>Extensive documentation updates and additional API history.
|
|
<li>Removed SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG buggy client workarounds.
|
|
<li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ENGINE_finish.3">ENGINE_finish(3)</a> and <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ENGINE_free.3">ENGINE_free(3)</a> succeed on NULL and simplify callers and matching OpenSSL behavior, rewrote ENGINE_* documentation.
|
|
<li>Added const annotations to many existing APIs from OpenSSL, making
|
|
interoperability easier for downstream applications.
|
|
<li>Documented <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/BN_set_flags.3#BUGS">security pitfalls</a> with BN_FLG_CONSTTIME and constant-time operation of BN_* functions.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<li>Testing and Proactive Security
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added Wycheproof test support for ECDH, RSASSA-PSS, AES-GCM,
|
|
AES-CMAC, AES-CCM, AES-CBC-PKCS5, DSA, ChaCha20-Poly1305, ECDSA, and
|
|
X25519 test vectors. Applied appropriate fixes for errors uncovered by
|
|
tests.
|
|
<li>Added more cipher tests, including all TLSv1.2 ciphers.
|
|
<li>Added a blinding value when generating DSA and ECDSA signatures, in
|
|
order to reduce the possibility of a side-channel attack leaking the
|
|
private key.
|
|
<li>Added timing-safe compares for checking results of signature
|
|
verification.
|
|
<li>Added ECC constant time scalar multiplication support.

From Billy Brumley and his team at Tampere University of Technology.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>Internal Improvements
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Simplified key exchange signature generation and verification.
|
|
<li>Converted more code paths to use CBB/CBS. All handshake messages are
|
|
now created by CBB. RSA key exchange is simplified and uses dedicated
|
|
buffers for secrets.
|
|
<li>Simplified session ticket parsing and handling, inspired by
|
|
BoringSSL.
|
|
<li>Stopped handing AES-GCM in ssl_cipher_get_evp, since they use the
|
|
EVP_AEAD interface.
|
|
<li>Stopped using composite EVP_CIPHER AEADs.
|
|
<li>Removed unused SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED and
|
|
SSL3_FLAGS_POP_BUFFER flags in write path, simplifying IO paths.
|
|
<li>Updated BN_clear to use explicit_bzero.
|
|
<li>Cleaned up BN_* implementations following changes made in OpenSSL by
|
|
Davide Galassi and others.
|
|
<li>Revised the implementation of RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 to match the
|
|
specification in RFC 8017. Based on an OpenSSL commit by David
|
|
Benjamin.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>Bug Fixes
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a one-byte buffer overrun in callers of EVP_read_pw_string
|
|
<li>Fixed various memory leaks found by Coverity.
|
|
<li>Converted more functions in public API to use const arguments.
|
|
<li>Correctly clear the current cipher state, when changing cipher state.
|
|
This fixed an issue where renegotiation of cipher suites would fail
|
|
when switched from AEAD to non-AEAD or vice-versa.
|
|
Issue reported by Bernard Spil.
|
|
<li>Fixed a pair of 20+ year-old bugs in X509_NAME_add_entry
|
|
<li>Fixed a potential memory leak on failure in ASN1_item_digest
|
|
<li>Fixed a potential memory alignment crash in asn1_item_combine_free
|
|
<li>Fixed small timing side-channels in ecdsa_sign_setup and
|
|
dsa_sign_setup.
|
|
<li>Added a missing bounds check in c2i_ASN1_BIT_STRING.
|
|
<li>Fixed a potential leak/incorrect return value in DSA signature
|
|
generation.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>Mandoc 1.14.4
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>In HTML output, many
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/mdoc.7">mdoc(7)</a> macros
|
|
now use more fitting HTML elements.
|
|
<li>In HTML output, almost all "style" attributes and a number of
|
|
redundant "class" attributes were removed.
|
|
<li>Baby steps towards responsive design: use a @media query in
|
|
mandoc.css, use the HTML meta viewport element, and remove all
|
|
hard-coded widths and heights from the generated HTML code.
|
|
<li>Many style improvements in
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/mandoc.css">mandoc.css</a>.
|
|
<li>More than 15 new low level
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/roff.7">roff(7)</a>
|
|
and GNU man-ext features.
|
|
Mandoc can now format the manuals of the groff port.

|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/update-plist.1">update-plist(1)</a>
|
|
has been entirely rewritten and now figures out MULTI_PACKAGES and
|
|
variable substitution almost 100%.
|
|
<li>New packages now run maintenance database tools like
|
|
update-desktop-database just once instead of after
|
|
every package addition/removal.
|
|
<li>Ports infrastructure manuals
|
|
(<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bulk.8">bulk(8)</a>,
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dpb.1">dpb(1)</a> and others) are now

<p>
|
|
Quick installer information for people familiar with OpenBSD, and the use of
|
|
the "<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/disklabel.8">disklabel</a> -E" command.
|
|
If you are at all confused when installing OpenBSD, read the relevant
|
|
INSTALL.* file as listed above!
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/alpha:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Write <i>floppy64.fs</i> or <i>floppyB64.fs</i> (depending on your machine)
|
|
to a diskette and enter <i>boot dva0</i>.
|
|
Refer to INSTALL.alpha for more details.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Make sure you use a properly formatted floppy with NO BAD BLOCKS or your install
|
|
will most likely fail.
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/amd64:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If your machine can boot from CD, you can write <i>install64.iso</i> or
|
|
<i>cd64.iso</i> to a CD and boot from it.
|
|
You may need to adjust your BIOS options first.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If your machine can boot from USB, you can write <i>install64.fs</i> or
|
|
<i>miniroot64.fs</i> to a USB stick and boot from it.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you can't boot from a CD, floppy disk, or USB,
|
|
you can install across the network using PXE as described in the included
|
|
INSTALL.amd64 document.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you are planning to dual boot OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
|
|
read INSTALL.amd64.
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/arm64:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Write <i>miniroot64.fs</i> to a disk and boot from it after connecting
|
|
to the serial console. Refer to INSTALL.arm64 for more details.
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/armv7:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Write a system specific miniroot to an SD card and boot from it after connecting
|
|
to the serial console. Refer to INSTALL.armv7 for more details.
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/hppa:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Boot over the network by following the instructions in INSTALL.hppa or the
|
|
<a href="hppa.html#install">hppa platform page</a>.
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/i386:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If your machine can boot from CD, you can write <i>install64.iso</i> or
|
|
<i>cd64.iso</i> to a CD and boot from it.
|
|
You may need to adjust your BIOS options first.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If your machine can boot from USB, you can write <i>install64.fs</i> or
|
|
<i>miniroot64.fs</i> to a USB stick and boot from it.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you can't boot from a CD, floppy disk, or USB,
|
|
you can install across the network using PXE as described in
|
|
the included INSTALL.i386 document.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
|
|
read INSTALL.i386.
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/landisk:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Write <i>miniroot64.fs</i> to the start of the CF
|
|
or disk, and boot normally.
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/loongson:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Write <i>miniroot64.fs</i> to a USB stick and boot bsd.rd from it
|
|
or boot bsd.rd via tftp.
|
|
Refer to the instructions in INSTALL.loongson for more details.
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/luna88k:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Copy 'boot' and 'bsd.rd' to a Mach or UniOS partition, and boot the bootloader
|
|
from the PROM, and then bsd.rd from the bootloader.
|
|
Refer to the instructions in INSTALL.luna88k for more details.
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/macppc:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Burn the image from a mirror site to a CDROM, and power on your machine
|
|
while holding down the <i>C</i> key until the display turns on and
|
|
shows <i>OpenBSD/macppc boot</i>.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Alternatively, at the Open Firmware prompt, enter <i>boot cd:,ofwboot
|
|
/6.4/macppc/bsd.rd</i>
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/octeon:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
After connecting a serial port, boot bsd.rd over the network via DHCP/tftp.
|
|
Refer to the instructions in INSTALL.octeon for more details.
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/sgi:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
To install, burn cd64.iso on a CD-R, put it in the CD drive of your
|
|
machine and select <i>Install System Software</i> from the System Maintenance
|
|
menu. Indigo/Indy/Indigo2 (R4000) systems will not boot automatically from
|
|
CD-ROM, and need a proper invocation from the PROM prompt.
|
|
Refer to the instructions in INSTALL.sgi for more details.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If your machine doesn't have a CD drive, you can setup a DHCP/tftp network
|
|
server, and boot using "bootp()/bsd.rd.IP##" using the kernel matching your
|
|
system type. Refer to the instructions in INSTALL.sgi for more details.
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/sparc64:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Burn the image from a mirror site to a CDROM, boot from it, and type
|
|
<i>boot cdrom</i>.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If this doesn't work, or if you don't have a CDROM drive, you can write
|
|
<i>floppy64.fs</i> or <i>floppyB64.fs</i>
|
|
(depending on your machine) to a floppy and boot it with <i>boot
|
|
floppy</i>. Refer to INSTALL.sparc64 for details.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Make sure you use a properly formatted floppy with NO BAD BLOCKS or your install
|
|
will most likely fail.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
You can also write <i>miniroot64.fs</i> to the swap partition on
|
|
the disk and boot with <i>boot disk:b</i>.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If nothing works, you can boot over the network as described in INSTALL.sparc64.

<h3>How to upgrade</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you already have an OpenBSD 6.3 system, and do not want to reinstall,
|
|
upgrade instructions and advice can be found in the
|
|
<a href="faq/upgrade64.html">Upgrade Guide</a>.
|
|
</section>

|
|
|
|
<section id=sourcecode>
|
|
<h3>Notes about the source code</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>src.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src</code>.
|
|
This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
|
|
which are in a separate archive.
|
|
To extract:
|
|
<blockquote><pre>
|
|
# <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src</kbd>
|
|
# <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
|
|
# <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</kbd>
|
|
</pre></blockquote>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>sys.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src/sys</code>.
|
|
This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
|
|
To extract:
|
|
<blockquote><pre>
|
|
# <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</kbd>
|
|
# <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
|
|
# <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</kbd>
|
|
</pre></blockquote>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
|
|
is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
|
|
described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
|
|
Using these files
|
|
results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
|
|
a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

<h3>Ports Tree</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
|
|
<blockquote><pre>
|
|
# <kbd>cd /usr</kbd>
|
|
# <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</kbd>
|
|
</pre></blockquote>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
|
|
if you know nothing about ports
|
|
at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
|
|
Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
|
|
OpenBSD ports system.
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
|
|
As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
|
|
<a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
|
|
So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
|
|
the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
|
|
with a command like:
|
|
<blockquote><pre>
|
|
# <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
|
|
# <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_4</kbd>
|
|
</pre></blockquote>
|
|
<p>
|
|
[Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
|
|
server.]
|
|
<p>
|
|
Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
|
|
ports for the 6.4 release will be made available if problems arise.
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
|
|
would like to know more, the mailing list
|
|
<a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
