 ## Primary goals  ## Primary goals
   
 We see four main goals one could achieve within five days with enough manpower:  We want NetBSD 6.0 to be the best NetBSD release ever. There are already
   a lot of great features in it:
   
 1. Update and complete the several guides we have.  * Improved kernel performance and scalibity
 The NetBSD guide could have some updates (e.g. one could write about npf,  * New kernel module framework with automatic module loading
 or write one guide for it on its own).  * Logic Volume Manager
 The internals guide has many XXXs in it, too, and the part about regression  * NetBSD Packet Filter
 testing is factually empty, and perhaps could need one guide on its own.  * Xen SMP support
   * Flash file-system CHFS
 2. The wiki needs some work on it.  * Automated Regression Testing
 The old wiki needs to be migrated completely into the new one.  * Improved FUSE support
   * Updated Linux emulation
 3. NetBSD could need some new advertising material. Anyone good in writing  * GCC 4.5.3
 texts can make new texts for the current flyers, and if you're good with  * Updated X.org X11 distribution
 inkscape and scribus, creating one or two posters for exhibitions would be  * SMTP authentication client built into Postfix (now version 2.8.7)
 nice, too.  * New and enhanced drivers
   * ... and many other features
 4. Minor improvements (working on manpages), thinking about versioning the  
 documentation, address some topics that was not written about before.  To make sure that NetBSD users get the best possible experience of
   the new release we would like to fix as many as possible of the
   following bugs. If you are able to fix these bugs by supplying patches
 ## Possible topics  or testing fixes please consider to participate.
   We are also in need of people to supply documentation fixes, preferably
 There were several suggestions on what could be done, so here are topics  in the form of patches.  Release notes and/or manual pages!
 somebody wanted to be addressed:  
   Critical bugs:
 ### Working on guides  
  * Create a list of notebooks and netbooks running NetBSd, what is missing  * [[PR 45677|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/45677]]: The stress_killer test sometimes does
    with them and what is running. This page could suit well into the wiki  * [[PR 45708|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/45708]]: Unable to read big files from large FFSv2 (12TB), ls out of swap
    where it is editable by more people.  * [[PR 44788|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/44788]]: mlock(2) panic
  * genfs, fifofs, layerfs and specfs actually have no manpages and nearly no  * [[PR 45187|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/45187]]: select(2) sometimes doesn't wakeup
    documentation. Documenting them would be good for writing new FSs.  * [[PR 45833|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/45833]]: occasional crash of 5.99.59: SPL NOT LOWERED ON TRAP EXIT
  * Look into internals guide. Every chapter (except for five) has XXXs in it  
    or misses fundamental information.  Important bugs:
  * Regression testing needs to be documented. It has a chapter in the  
    internals guide, but I want to stress this topic, as it is important for  * [[PR 38670|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/38670]]: ^Z does not seems to suspend programs that vfork'ed and wait.
    people new to developing with NetBSD.  * [[PR 38965|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/38965]]: ktrace locking issue
  * The Xen-howto could be updated (http://www.lumbercartel.ca/library/xen/  * [[PR 39420|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/39420]]: stopped processes can hold locks
    might be a good source).  * [[PR 42663|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/42663]]: lwp_exit() might race with lwp_free()
    LumberCartel has permitted the use of his document,  * [[PR 44658|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/44658]]: spurious chroot escape warning
    don't forget to give credit and backlink to his pages.  * [[PR 34735|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/34735]]: diagnostic assertion failed genfs_vnops.c 1123
  * Write an introduction for people coming from Linux and migrating to  * [[PR 38760|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/38760]]: umount -f /usr panics the system
    NetBSD, the main differences to consider, etc.  * [[PR 39548|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/39548]]: kernel debugging assertion "(vp->v_flag & VONWORKLST)" failed
  * Create an npf guide (similarly to the PF user's guide  * [[PR 30525|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/30525]]: remounting ffs read-only (mount -ur) does not sync metadata
    http://openbsd.org/faq/pf/index.html). This doesn't need to be as lengthy  * [[PR 39264|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/39264]]: newfs can create a filesystem with > 2^31 inodes, which doesn't work (?)
    as the OpenBSD one, but having one would be nice.  * [[PR 40562|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/40562]]: busy loop in ffs_sync when unmounting a file system
    This can also be addressed in the guide's chapter concerning firewalls.  * [[PR 41013|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/41013]]: netbsd5-rc2 crash (kernel diagnostic assertion "vp->v_usecount == 1" failed)
  * The pkgsrc guide could also need updates. Additionally, it would be good  * [[PR 39371|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/39371]]: wapbl should allow mounting "/" even if journal is hosed
    for people new to pkgsrc if the way make works and how dependencies are  * [[PR 39609|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/39609]]: wapbl "replaying log to disk" message is potentially misleading
    automatically resolved would be documented in the guide.  * [[PR 32318|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/32318]]: NFS client or server hang
    That would make it much easier for people who want to contribute.  * [[PR 39385|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/39385]]: unmounting ptyfs with busy ptys causes deadlock in vrele
  * Write an example on how to migrate NetBSD to a new platform.  * [[PR 40388|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/40388]]: IPv6 incompatibility with pre-5.99.6 binary
  * Gather and actualize bluetooth information. The chapter in the guide could  * [[PR 38078|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/38078]]: IPFilter lacks documentation almost completely
    be updated.  * [[PR 38457|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/38457]]: ipf doesn't handle IPv6 fragments
  * Write an article on how to contribute. At the moment, there is  * [[PR 39066|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/39066]]: Tty settings mangled.
    http://www.netbsd.org/contrib/, but having a guide on how NetBSD  * [[PR 4029|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/4029]]: Register usage doesn't comply with SPARC ABI
    development really works, where the code lies and how e.g. the website  * [[PR 44705|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/44705]]: libc violates sparc ABI by using %g7
    is made (it took me weeks to figure out where the website lies), etc. would  * [[PR 38540|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/38540]]: recent i386 GENERIC kernel cannot boot with VIA chipset
    be good.  * [[PR 38643|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/38643]]: (dM) st tape drive loses data
   * [[PR 39305|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/39305]]: loops through gre(4) cause a hang or crash
 ### wiki  * [[PR 42420|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/42420]]: $ORIGIN undefined on NetBSD
  * [[Migrate articles from the old user wiki to the new one.|wiki/todo/migrate_content_from_wiki.netbsd.se]]  * [[PR 40066|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/40066]]: gcc -O1 generates wrong code in loop optimize
  * Design a new wiki frontpage and think about how to order the wiki. The old  * [[PR 40468|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/40468]]: Optimizer bug suspected -- porting devel/libffi to NetBSD/powerpc
    user wiki had a pretty nice one.  * [[PR 30756|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/30756]]: gdb not usable for live debugging of threaded programs
  * Create a site for 'general tips' related to NetBSD that don't really fit  * [[PR 41936|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/41936]]: gdb does not work for threaded programs on sparc64
    into any other category.  * [[PR 41208|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/41208]]: objcopy -S -O binary aborts w/ BFD internal error
  * Think of an easier way for new users (non-developers) to contribute to the  * [[PR 41127|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/41127]]: Update/improve newfs docs regarding raw devices
    wiki. At the moment, the way with getting an OpenID, writing a mail,  * [[PR 45762|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/45762]]: ntpd default config violates pool.ntp.org policy
    waiting for creation and activation is long and difficult.  * [[PR 40346|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/40346]]: libexpat should be in base.tgz
    One could e.g. think about having a simple NetBSD OpenID-server (SimpleID  * [[PR 9582|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/9582]]: sysinst doesn't allow source or pkgsrc installation
    is quite nice for that) and a registration form so that you don't have to  * [[PR 38571|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/38571]]: sysinst runs "postinstall fix"
    dig through OpenID first to get an account.  * [[PR 12769|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/12769]]: clarify the upgrade notes for when the sets are on /usr
   * [[PR 43314|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/43314]]: pc relative relocations are "off by 1*size" on vax
 ### advertising material  * [[PR 44159|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/44159]]: startx (xinit) fails
  * Work out posters (potentially A0) for exhibitions. Anybody fond with  * [[PR 45153|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/45153]]: there should be a build.sh target for building live images
    inkscape, scribus and design could do great work on that!  * [[PR 45155|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/45155]]: there are no usb-stick installer images
  * Work over the advertising materials, the exiting can be seen here:  * [[PR 45439|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/45439]]: gcc generates out-of-range branch insn for m68k
    http://www.netbsd.org/gallery/advocacy/.  * [[PR 45573|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/45573]]: internal compiler error when building f2c on sparc64
    They have nice designs, but are fairly outdated and don't really outline  * [[PR 45620|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/45620]]: MAKEDEV failures remains unoticed in miniroot build
    what NetBSDs benefits are.  * [[PR 45628|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/45628]]: acpicpu(4) changes between 5.99.55 and 5.99.56 break amd64
  * Design new wallpapers. NetBSD needs nice wallpapers for your desktop. ;)  * [[PR 45816|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/45816]]: Screen corruption in German sysinst install
   * [[PR 45854|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/45854]]: vnode clean list corruption?
 ### miscellanous documentation  
  * pcap(3) could need cross-links (e.g. pcap_next and pcap_next_ex).  Should be fixed:
  * Work over vfs(9) and vnode(9) (some functions missing), and insert them  
    into the internals guide.  * [[PR 37726|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/37726]]: request documentation of 2147 second limit on adjtime(2)
  * Work through the packages in pkgsrc/x11 and xsrc and document  * [[PR 19774|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/19774]]: ddb can be entered twice and then you can't get out
    correspondences and version numbers there. This is important for working  * [[PR 36526|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/36526]]: ddb(4) doesn't document ddb.commandonenter fully, nor correctly
    on pkgsrc's Xorg.  * [[PR 36227|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/36227]]: TRYEMULROOT-related doc issues about absolute symlinks
  * Update the pages for possible projects and bounties, and think of some  * [[PR 38141|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/38141]]: lookup/vfs_busy acquire rwlock recursively (now, transient unmount failures)
    infrastructure on how to make it easily appendable. Currently, there are  * [[PR 38889|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/38889]]: Crash on open/mmap/close of block device
    three pages for that issue: http://wiki.netbsd.org/projects/,  * [[PR 45694|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/45694]]: update by ./build.sh doesn't complete because of unwriteable /dev
    http://wiki-static.aydogan.net/Bounties ([[check this|wiki/todo/migrate_content_from_wiki.netbsd.se]]) and  * [[PR 38265|http://gnats.NetBSD.org/38265]]: sometimes /kern directory can not be read
