NetBSD CVS Digest volume 2, issue 16



This issue:

Work has started on making repeat builds bit-identical. So far this has involved removing code which embeds build dates into the binaries. [Perry E. Metzger]

UDF: Implement directory hashing to speed up directory traversals. Speed improvements of at least 4 times in untarring and roughly 100 to 500 times on file creation in big directories. [Reinoud Zandijk]

While openpam overwrites possible sensitive data on cleanup, it misses the buffers used in the password dialog. Clean them too.[Matthias Drochner]

Wipe out tty buffer contents after read, to avoid keeping possibly sensitive information in memory longer than necessary. [Matthias Drochner]

simonb-wapbl: "mount -u -o log" works now. [Simon Burge]

Imports

Top 3.8 Beta 1 [Christos Zoulas]

libdevmapper 1.02.27 [Adam Hamsik]
