@ND3JR Sure, but 32-bit generated code is larger. So stuff had to be removed.

It's a fresh new year, which means time to update the calendars provided by calendar(1), and, traditionally, reflect on the number of obscure holidays with moving dates.

Riastradh has added additional runtime checks to the ctype functions, which are a libc feature that is commonly used incorrectly. This includes guard page exploit mitigations.https://freshbsd.org/netbsd/src/commit/FzouP6F1eaQTSROFhttps://freshbsd.org/netbsd/src/commit/BCljW4bJuFO5QTOF

@txt_file Kernel SMP support, requiring fine-grained locking and synchronization primitives that the 386 does not have.You can read the changelog here. It's a very significant release: https://netbsd.org/releases/formal-5/NetBSD-5.0.html

Did you know: if you speak French, Spanish, or Polish, and don't know how to code, you can still help us make an operating system?https://wiki.netbsd.org/tutorials/sysinst_translations_and_testing/

If you have an iwm(4) Intel Wi-Fi device, try out a -current kernel as of today. Stability and throughput should be improved.

Does anyone have contacts at any of Harvard University, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, Microsoft, Cisco, or Intel who would be responsible for open source software licensing?We'd like to change source code from 4-clause to 3-clause BSD that are copyright these organizations.

A lot of the current base for 32-bit x86 is embedded and clone CPUs, Vortex86, AMD Geode, VIA. An OS that requires i686+SSE2 does not run on that hardware. In 2025, supporting i486/i586 makes a lot more sense than supporting 32-bit x86 but requiring SSE2.
