I'm polishing up the "JAIL" code I wrote and readying it for -current.
This code provides an optional strenthening of the chroot() jail
as we know it, and will provide safe sandboxes for most practical
uses.
The biggest impact of this is a new argument to the suser() call
all over the kernel:
pcm no longer works correctly the Yamaha YMF715 based sound system
of my laptop.
It was working fine up till shortly before secure/libcrypt broke on -current.
The kernel with broken pcm0 is from:

Ok
dumb question mayhaps...
Why isn't the FreeBSD project using tags like $FreeBSD$ instead of the
now-used $Id$?
I looked in the log files and saw that at one point there was an attempted
switch, but it got reversed again.

OK,
just to re-organise something here:
Some people are referring to Netscape (Navigator | Communicator)
whereas others are referring to Mozilla (from www.mozilla.org)
I think this makes a ton of differences.
Also, anyone even bothered to file the communicator 4.5 binary?

The stuff was added to the tree, but was backed out because our CVS
support, at the time, wasn't up to snuff. I'd love to see this
change, but there are many other
Boy, aren't we lucky that every kern_envp entry has an '='

Fixed.

Its some new code to manage "autogrow" stacks. The existing (old) code
made a process stack autogrow. But, its useful to be able to create
additional autogrow memory regions to use as thread stacks in
bug in nfs_access(). nfs/nfs_vnops.c, line 414 or so.
Fixed!
This is a nasty one. I'm surprised it hasn't caused grief before

-Wall and -Wcast-qual has been turned on in /usr/src/share/mk/bsd.kern.mk.
Please note that you will see a lot of warnings ( but no fatal errors )
while compiling the kernel now until we can get it all cleaned up.
I am working a first-pass cleanup now.
Do not 'cleanup' the cod

And to followup to my own message, since nobody else has
yes, though luckily it turns out to not matter.
except possibly on tapes..
the 2nd call in the raw case will probably finish immediatly

I was wondering what the naming scheme for files in /usr/src/sys/kern was
:). There seem to be several sorts of files there--
bus_if.mdevice_.m imgact_*.c
inflate.c init_*.ckern_*.c
link_*.cmake*.{pl,sh} md5c.c
Ah now I see what sean is aguing about..
He has a point..
maybe using jailsuser() or something might be a better idea?
(On the other hand at 3.x existing KLD modules are not YET a problem
except for OSS)
