Hi,
There has been quite a while since the SSP glue has been committed in
the tree. Yet there has always been a gloomy corner case since then
that was reported from time to time, mainly by port maintainers, which
has been hard to reproduce. This is the main showstopper to enable SSP
for ports by

I've been running my systems with this modification since Feb 2012 and
have seen no problems beyond file(1) usage on /usr/lib/libc.so in
openssl's configure.
I've taken ports/168010 and ports/138228 for exp-runs. I want to get
(optional) SSP support into ports this year.
I'll start a libc.ld exp-
I heard there was some discussion at BSDCan about the direction of a
future FreeBSD installer. Considering we currently have bsdinstall,
pc-sysinstall, and an effort to revive sysinstall, I'd be interested to
know what was decided (if anything) and whether I could help make
progress towards ge

It's not a X-Fi sound card at all. Its chip is CA0106-WBTLF (from
Wikipedia). But it's the only sound card available on ExpressCard,
so it's kinda a great choice for laptop users.
Is that possible to add its support into FreeBSD OSS?
On my FreeBSD 8.4 machine, it's recognized as

Hello FreeBSD devs,
I have found a performance improvement to libc's strnlen().
lib/libc/string/strnlen.c is a trivial byte-by-byte implementation,
where strlen.c has a smarter word-by-word implementation. I have
implemented strnlen similarly to strlen. It runs about 4x as fast, at
the cost o

Please don't turn this into an architecture dependent mess. PCBSD is i386 &
AMD64 only.

There's a GSoC project (of which I'm potential mentor) to fix that.
However, you are entirely right… we can't in all seriousness even think about
