/etc/sortix-release is temporarily a symbolic link to /lib/sortix-release,
as the file is required to upgrade from source on Sortix 1.0.
/etc/machine is temporarily a symbolic link to /lib/machine, as the file
is required to upgrade from source on Sortix 1.0. However, the
/lib/machine file is obsolescent and will be removed after the next
release, when the compatibility can be dropped
/etc/os-release is moved to /lib/os-release, which is allowed per the
standard since /usr is a symbolic link to the current directory. Nothing
needed the file to be in its old location.
Add tcgetblob(2) harddisk-writable key that says whether a block device is
writable.
Prefer writable block devices in disked(8).
Ignore read-only block devices in sysinstall(8) and sysupgrade(8) when
searching for existing installations and other operating systems.
This is a compatible ABI change.
This new tool builds all the binary packages from a ports directory and
replaces the latter half of build-aux/build-ports.sh. Meanwhile it has
gained cleaning support and build-aux/clean-ports.sh is merged into
build-aux/build-ports.sh for simplicity.
Implement com(4) interrupt support for receiving data.
Add termios terminal support to the com(4) driver with tcsetattr(2)
support for configuring the hardware serial settings.
Add kernel(7) --console option which can be used to initialize the
com(4) driver early for the kernel console with the specified serial
settings and window size.
Add kernel(7) --text option for overriding the TERM environment variable.
Add kernel(7) --disable-logo option for disabling writing the the
operating system logo to the console on boot.
Add advanced bootloader option to select booting to a serial console on
com1. Add bootloader variables and hooks to customize this behavior.
Add tix-iso-bootconfig(8) --console, --grub-serial, --serial, and
--serial-console options as a convenince to opt into booting to the
serial console by default.
Add tix-iso-bootconfig(8) --kernel-options option for forwarding
additional options to the kernel.
The logterminal driver used for tty1 currently assumes that it controls
the kernel log, which is not true when com(4) is used as the console,
therefore the tty1 driver is currently disabled if a serial console is
selected, as a temporary workaround.
Every process now has an init process like it has a session, and each
session belong to an init. Orphaned processes are reparented to its init
process. All descendent processes are SIGKILL'd when an init process exits
and creating additional processes/threads fails.
Add setinit(2) for becoming the init process for your child processes and
add getinit(2) for locating your init process.
Add TIOCSCTTY force flag that releases a terminal from its current session
and makes it the controlling terminal for the current session. This ioctl
is essential to transferring the controlling terminal to a nested init,
which has its own session.
Add TIOCUCTTY that releases the terminal as the controlling terminal for
its current session.
Remove INIT_PID as it is replaced by getinit(2).
Move /etc/default/grub to /etc/grub as it's owned by the sysadmin.
Move /etc/grub.d to /etc/default/grub.d as it's owned by the system.
Support /etc/grub's GRUB_CMDLINE_SORTIX in 10_sortix.
Remove the old /etc/grub.d/10_sortix.cache with a compatibility hook as it
has moved to /etc/default/grub.d/10_sortix.cache.
The .tix.tar.xz binary package format now stores the contents in the root
rather than the data/ subdirectory and the tix metadata now has the same
layout as the loose files in /tix, such that a .tix.tar.xz package can
simply be directly extracted into the filesystem. The /tix/manifest/ is now
included in the binary package rather than being generated on installation.
The /tix/collection.conf and /tix/tixinfo metadata files are now in the
tix-vars(1) format in the style of port(5).
The /tix/installed.list file has been removed since it isn't loose file
compatible and one can list the /tix/tixinfo directory instead.
The /tix/repository.list file has been removed since the feature is unused
and doesn't match the future direction of tix.
The kernel support for tix binary packages has been removed since it will
simply install by extracting the tar archive into the root filesystem.
Add the post-install sha256sum to the port version stamp.
The custom initrd format was originally useful when it was mounted,
however it has been extracted into the ramfs for a very long time and
has no advantages over the standard tar format which can be readily
created and modified using standard tools. The kernel initrd(7) support
already supports tar, so this change simply switches the format.
This change adds the display(1) graphical user interface and desktop
environment with basic windowing support and the graphical terminal(1)
emulator along with integrations in chkblayout(1), chvideomode(1),
sysinstall(8), sysupgrade(8), as well as the games and ports.
Adopt the Aurora procedural wallpaper in display(1) and login(8).
Remove the obsolete dispd.
Juhani contributed keyboard and video mode APIs to the display protocol
and other miscellaneous changes.
dzwdz contributed the initial functioning window buttons, improved title
bar, window tiling, and minor bug fixes

This change adds all the kernel parts of a network stack. The network stack
is partial but implements many of the important parts.
Add if(4) network interface abstraction. Network interfaces are registered
in a global list that can be iterated and each assigned an unique integer
identifier.
Add reference counted packets with a cache that recycles recent packets.
Add support for lo(4) loopback and ether(4) ethernet network interfaces.
The /dev/lo0 loopback device is created automatically on boot.
Add arp(4) address resolution protocol driver for translation of inet(4)
network layer addresses into ether(4) link layer addresses. arp(4) entries
are cached and evicted from the cache when needed or when the entry has not
been used for a while. The cache is limited to 256 entries for now.
Add ip(4) internet protocol version 4 support. IP fragmentation and options
are not implemented yet.
Add tcp(4) transmission control protocol sockets for a reliable transport
layer protocol that provides a reliable byte stream connection between two
hosts. The implementation is incomplete and does not yet implement out of
band data, options, and high performance extensions.
Add udp(4) user datagram protocol sockets for a connectionless transport
layer that provides best-effort delivery of datagrams.
Add ping(4) sockets for a best-effort delivery of echo datagrams.
Change type of sa_family_t from unsigned short to uint16_t.
Add --disable-network-drivers to the kernel(7) options and expose it with a
bootloader menu. tix-iso-bootconfig can set this option by default.
Import CRC32 code from libz for the Ethernet checksum.
This is a compatible ABI change that adds features to socket(2) (AF_INET,
IPPROTO_TCP, IPPROTO_UDP, IPPROTO_PING), the ioctls for if(4), socket
options, and the lo0 loopback interface.

This change implements a dependency tracking daemon(7) system in init with
overridable init(5) configuration, parallel startup, readiness signaling,
rotating logs, reliable stopping, and handling of leaked processes.
The /etc/init/target file is replaced by the new /etc/init/default per the
new init(5) format. The old configuration is migrated upon upgrade using an
upgrade hook.
extfs(8) now signals readiness using READYFD for fast mounting.
Filesystems that fail to be repaired are now mounted read-only.
The mounting and filesystem checking code is synchronized with sysinstall.
The duplicated array_add utility function now protects against overflows.
tix-iso-bootconfig(8) gains the --init-target option.
tix-iso-liveconfig(8) gains the --daemons option.
