option QUOTA2 (added where QUOTA was enabled in kernel config files),
turned on with tunefs(8) on a per-filesystem
basis. mount_mfs(8) can also turn quotas on.

Add support for the Extensible MIPS ("eMIPS") platform.  The
NetBSD/emips port runs on Xilinx and Beecube FPGA systems and the
Giano system simulator.

eMIPS is a platform developed at Microsoft Research for researching
reconfigurable computing.  eMIPS allows dynamic loading and scheduling
of application-specific circuits for the purpose of accelerating
computations based on the current workload.

NetBSD eMIPS support for NetBSD 4.x was written at Microsoft Research
by Alessandro Forin and Neil Pittman.  Microsoft Corporation has
donated full copyright to The NetBSD Foundation.

Platform support for eMIPS is the first part of Microsoft's
contribution.  The second part includes the hardware accelerator
framework and will be proposed on tech-kern soon.

hdaudio(4) is a standards-compliant driver for High Definition Audio.
It will replace azalia(4) after testing.
To use, comment out azalia in your kernel configuration and uncomment the
hdaudio and hdafg lines so it reads:
hdaudio*        at pci? dev ? function ?
hdafg*          at hdaudiobus?
You should also:
cd /dev
sh MAKEDEV audio

Note recent Xen work on xbd and xvif.

mention gpio changes

Mention pfsync(4) import

In the rc_silent change, mention "boot netbsd -z" because it's a common
case, even though it's boot loader dependent.

Add a postprocessor to /etc/rc, which logs messages to /var/run/rc.log,
and which can suppress output in silent mode.  Silent mode is enabled
via the new rc_silent variable, which defaults to a value that depends
on the kern.boothowto sysctl.

Part of the /etc/rc silent changes requested in PR 41946
and proposed in tech-userlevel.

Expose the kernel's boothowto(9) variable through the sysctl
kern.boothowto variable.

Part of the /etc/rc silent changes requested in PR 41946
and proposed in tech-userlevel.

Note the new modules.tgz set and the new build.sh modules operation

hdaudio(4) is a standards-compliant driver for Intel High Definition Audio.
