FreeBSD status report |
 |
The FreeBSD project has published a new Quarterly Status Update detailing the project's progress over the past three months. The FreeBSD team has done a lot of work to improve driver support, particularly for newer Intel wireless cards, and refreshed ports. One key feature that received attention was the Linux compatibility layer, which allows FreeBSD to run some Linux programs: "There was a fair number of all kinds of improvements to the layer, ranging from updated linux(4) man page, to a new linux rc script, which now takes care of eg mounting Linux-specific filesystems or setting ELF fallback brand, to new syscalls, to tiny improvements such as making ^T work for Linux binaries. From the user point of view, when running 13-CURRENT, Linux jails are now in a mostly working state: you can SSH into a jail with CentOS 8 binaries, run screen(1), Emacs, Postgres, OpenJDK 11, use 'yum upgrade'... Of course there's still a bunch of things that need work." The report has many more details on the work going into FreeBSD. |
