+
+The goal of this project was to enhance the functionality of bhyve’s debug server.
+Several existing features related to single-stepping are tied to Intel-specific VM mechanisms, which severely impairs bhyve’s debugging functionality on other x86 platforms.
+The first goal dealt with extending single-stepping support to AMD hosts.
+The second goal was to add support for hardware watchpoints using the guest OS's hardware debugging registers.
+
+The project was carried out under Google's Summer of Code program and was finished around the end of July.
+The project's wiki also contains detailed documentation regarding several implemented mechanisms.
+
+The changes can be summarized as follows:
+
+* Support for placing software breakpoints inside virtual machines on AMD platforms,
+* Support for single-stepping virtual machines on AMD platforms,
+* Support for placing hardware watchpoints inside virtual machines on Intel and AMD platforms.
+
+Any feedback, comments and discussions are welcome and would be greatly appreciated.

+The port deskutils/calendar-data contains calendar files for the BSD calendar program and is maintained by se@.
+The data for this port lives in a link:https://github.com/freebsd/calendar-data[GitHub repository], which at the moment is maintained mainly by salvadore@.
+
+About two years ago, the calendar files in the base repository were removed from there and a new repository was created on GitHub; see also this link:https://reviews.freebsd.org/D26883[Phabricator review about the creation of the associated port].
+This improvement allows calendar files to be updated independently from the base system.
+
+Unfortunately, when the repository was created, it was forgotten to add a license to it.
+The issue has been solved this quarter with this link:https://github.com/freebsd/calendar-data/pull/9[pull request] submitted by salvadore@ and merged by imp@.
+Since the data originally came from the src repository, the same licence applies.
+If in the past you have contributed to the calendar files with different licensing assumptions, please inform us so that we can license your contributions accordingly or remove them.

+
+The FreeBSD CI team maintains the continuous integration system of the FreeBSD project.
+The CI system checks the committed changes can be successfully built, then performs various tests and analysis over the newly built results.
+The artifacts from those builds are archived in the link:https://artifact.ci.FreeBSD.org[artifact server] for further testing and debugging needs.
+The CI team members examine the failing builds and unstable tests and work with the experts in that area to fix the code or adjust test infrastructure.
+
+During the third quarter of 2022, we continued working with the contributors and developers in the project to fulfill their testing needs and also keep collaborating with external projects and companies to improve their products and FreeBSD.
+
+Important completed tasks:
+
+* Expand the artifact storage space for adding more types of artifacts and longer retention period.
+* Present Testing/CI Status Update in link:https://wiki.freebsd.org/DevSummit/202209[EuroBSDcon 2022 Developer Summit]
+* Add link:https://ci.freebsd.org/job/FreeBSD-main-powerpc-images/[main-powerpc-images] and link:https://ci.freebsd.org/job/FreeBSD-main-powerpcspe-images/[main-powerpcspe-images]
+
+Work in progress tasks:
+
+* Designing and implementing pre-commit CI building and testing (to support the link:https://gitlab.com/bsdimp/freebsd-workflow[workflow working group])
+* Designing and implementing use of CI cluster to build release artifacts as release engineering does
+* Testing and merging pull requests in link:https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ci/pulls[the FreeBSD-ci repo]
+* Simplifying CI/test environment setting up for contributors and developers
+* Setting up the CI stage environment and putting the experimental jobs on it
+* Organizing the scripts in freebsd-ci repository to prepare for merging to src repository
+* Updating documents on wiki
+
+Open or queued tasks:
+
+* Collecting and sorting link:https://hackmd.io/@FreeBSD-CI/freebsd-ci-todo[CI tasks and ideas]
+* Setting up public network access for the VM guest running tests
+* Implementing use of bare-metal hardware to run test suites
+* Adding drm ports building tests against -CURRENT
+* Planning to run ztest tests
+* Adding more external toolchain related jobs
+* Improving maturity of the hardware lab and adding more hardware for testing
+* Helping more software get FreeBSD support in its CI pipeline (Wiki pages: link:https://wiki.freebsd.org/3rdPartySoftwareCI[3rdPartySoftwareCI], link:https://wiki.freebsd.org/HostedCI[HostedCI])
+* Working with hosted CI providers to have better FreeBSD support

+
+cloud-init is the standard way of provisioning servers in the cloud.
+Unfortunately, cloud-init support for operating systems other than Linux is rather poor, and the lack of cloud-init support on FreeBSD is a hindrance to cloud providers who want to offer FreeBSD as a Tier 1 platform.
+To remedy the situation, this project aims to bring FreeBSD cloud-init support on par with Linux support.
+The broader plan is to lift support across all BSDs.
+
+The project deliverables include completing an extraction of certain networking classes, implementing man:ifconfig[8] and man:login.conf[5] parsers, implementing IPv6 configuration, creating man:devd.conf[5] rules for Azure, and extref:{handbook}[FreeBSD Handbook] documentation about productionizing FreeBSD.
+
+On the way there, any BSD-related bugs found in modules and documentation will also be fixed.
+
+People interested in helping with the project can help with testing new features and fixes through package:net/cloud-init-devel[], which will be updated on a weekly basis.
+Further, people with access to, and experience with, OpenBSD and NetBSD are also highly welcome to help.

+FreeBSD Cluster Administration Team members are responsible for managing the machines the Project relies on to synchronise its distributed work and communications.
+In this quarter, the team has worked on the following:
+
+* Added additional storage to the CI system.
+It will help store more artifacts.
+* link:https://www.vuxml.org/freebsd/index.html[VuXML] deployed in all official mirrors.
+It speeds up the `pkg audit` functionality.
+* A new (and additional) monitoring system is in place.
+* A few old and faulty machines were decommissioned.
+* Moved several services to newer hardware.
+* Regular cluster-wide software upgrades
+* Regular support for FreeBSD.org user accounts
+* Regular disk and parts support (and replacement) for all physical hosts and mirrors.
+
+Work in progress:
+
+* git infra: Add `--filter` support.
+* Work with the PowerPC team to improve the package builders, universal, and reference machines.
+* Site audit at our primary site: inventory of spares and other miscellanea occupying space in our cabinets.
+* Discussions with link:https://www.juniper.net/[Juniper] about a donation of new switches for our primary site.
+* Plan for a large scale network upgrade at our primary site.
+* Cluster refresh (more extended project).
+Most cluster machines are running FreeBSD `13-STABLE` or `14-CURRENT` as of 2022-09-30.
+Only a handful of machines are still on FreeBSD `12-STABLE`.
+
+We are looking for an additional full mirror site (five servers) in Europe.
+See link:https://wiki.freebsd.org/Teams/clusteradm/generic-mirror-layout[generic mirrored layout] for our needs.
+Offers of link:https://wiki.freebsd.org/Teams/clusteradm/tiny-mirror[additional single-server mirrors] are always welcome too, especially in Europe.

+=== FreeBSD/Firecracker
+
+Links: +
+link:https://firecracker-microvm.github.io/[Firecracker VM]
+
+Contact: Colin Percival <cperciva@FreeBSD.org>
+
+Firecracker is an open source "microVM" developed by Amazon Web Services; it
+is designed for the needs of "serverless" compute environments and has a
+particular focus on security and minimalism.
+
+Starting in June 2022, Colin Percival has been working to port FreeBSD to run
+in the Firecracker environment, with significant assistance from other FreeBSD
+developers. As of this quarterly report, a set of patches are pending review
+which collectively add the needed support to make FreeBSD functional in a
+patched version of Firecracker.
+
+In Q4 Colin intends to finish committing the relevant patches to FreeBSD,
+release a kernel and disk image so other FreeBSD users can experiment with
+Firecracker, and update and merge Firecracker patches which add PVH boot
+support (used by FreeBSD).
+
+This work has already produced "spinoff" benefits in revealing ways to speed
+up the FreeBSD boot process; due to its low overhead and minimal environment,
+Firecracker is an excellent context to work on this.
+
+This work is supported by Colin's FreeBSD/EC2 Patreon.

+
+The FreeBSD Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to
+supporting and promoting the FreeBSD Project and community worldwide. Donations
+from individuals and corporations are used to fund and manage software
+development projects, conferences, and developer summits. We also provide
+travel grants to FreeBSD contributors, purchase and support hardware to improve
+and maintain FreeBSD infrastructure, and provide resources to improve security,
+quality assurance, and release engineering efforts. We publish marketing
+material to promote, educate, and advocate for the FreeBSD Project, facilitate
+collaboration between commercial vendors and FreeBSD developers, and finally,
+represent the FreeBSD Project in executing contracts, license agreements, and
+other legal arrangements that require a recognized legal entity.
+
+==== Fundraising Efforts
+
+First, I’d like to send a big thank you to everyone who gave a financial
+contribution to our efforts. We are 100% funded by your donations, so every
+contribution helps us continue to support FreeBSD in many ways, including some
+of the work funded and published in this status report.
+
+We support FreeBSD in five main areas. Software development is the largest area
+we fund with through staff developers and contractors who implement new
+features, support tier 1 platforms, review patches, and fix issues. You can
+find out some of the work we did under OS Improvements in this report. FreeBSD
+Advocacy is another area that we support to spread the word about FreeBSD at
+conferences, in presentations online and in-person, tutorials and how-to guides.
+We purchase and support hardware for the FreeBSD infrastructure that supports
+the work going on in the Project. Virtual and in-person events are organized by
+the Foundation to help connect and engage community members to share their
+knowledge and collaborate on projects. Finally, we provide legal support to the
+Project when needed and protect the FreeBSD trademarks.
+
+Our goal this year is to raise at a minimum $1,400,000 towards a spending budget
+of around $2,000,000. As we enter the last quarter of 2022, our donation total
+sits at $167,348, so we still need your help. If you haven't made a donation
+this year, please consider making one at https://freebsdfoundation.org/donate/.
+We also have a Partnership Program for larger commercial donors. You can find
+out more at
+https://freebsdfoundation.org/our-donors/freebsd-foundation-partnership-program/
+
+==== OS Improvements
+
+During the second quarter of 2022, 300 src, 36 ports, and 13 doc tree commits
+were made that identified The FreeBSD Foundation as a sponsor. Some of that
+work has dedicated report entries.
+
+* FreeBSD as a Tier I cloud-init Platform
+* Intel wireless towards 11ac
+* LLDB multiprocess debugging support
+* OpenStack on FreeBSD
+* Snapshots on Filesystems Using Journaled Soft Updates
+
+The other sponsored work is challenging to concisely summarize. It varies from
+complex new features to various bug fixes spanning the src tree. Here is a
+small sample to give a flavor of last quarter's work.
+
+- 240afd8 makefs: Add ZFS support
+
+ This allows one to take a staged directory tree and create a file consisting
+ of a ZFS pool with one or more datasets that contain the contents of the
+ directory tree. This is useful for creating virtual machine images without
+ using the kernel to create a pool; "zpool create" requires root privileges and
+ currently is not permitted in jails. makefs -t zfs also provides reproducible
+ images by using a fixed seed for pseudo-random number generation, used for
+ generating GUIDs and hash salts. makefs -t zfs requires relatively little by
+ way of machine resources.
+
+- 36f1526 Add experimental 16k page support on arm64
+
+ Add initial 16k page support on arm64. It is considered experimental, with no
+ guarantee of compatibility with userspace or kernel modules built with the
+ current 4k page size. Testing has shown good results in kernel workloads that
+ allocate and free large amounts of memory as only a quarter of the number of
+ calls into the VM subsystem are needed in the best case.
+
+- 1424f65 vm_pager: Remove the default pager
+
+ It's unused now. Keep the OBJ_DEFAULT identifier, but make it an alias of
+ OBJT_SWAP for the benefit of out-of-tree code.
+
+- a889a65 eventtimer: Fix several races in the timer reload code
+
+ In handleevents(), lock the timer state before fetching the time for the next
+ event. A concurrent callout_cc_add() call might be changing the next event
+ time, and the race can cause handleevents() to program an out-of-date time,
+ causing the callout to run later (by an unbounded period, up to the idle
+ hardclock period of 1s) than requested.
+
+===== Bhyve Issue Support
+
+The Foundation contracted John Baldwin to dedicate time to Bhyve as issues
+arise, especially security issues. Here is a summary of his 2022q3 work on that
+contract.
+
+- bb31aee bhyve virtio-scsi: Avoid out of bounds accesses to guest requests.
+- 62806a7 bhyve virtio-scsi: Tidy warning and debug prints.
+- 7afe342 bhyve e1000: Sanitize transmit ring indices.
+- c94f30e bhyve: Validate host PAs used to map passthrough BARs.
+- 16bedf5 pci: Add helper routines to iterate over a device's BARs.
+- baf753c bhyve: Support other schemes for naming pass-through devices.
+- fa46f37 bhyve e1000: Skip packets with a small header.
+- e7439f6 bhyve xhci: Cache the value of MaxPStreams when initializing an endpoint.
+
+===== RISC-V Improvements
+
+At the end of the quarter, the Foundation contracted Mitchell Horne to add and
+improve support for RISC-V hardware. Mitchell will also perform general
+maintenance such as fixing bugs, handling reports, providing review for new code
+changes, and improving source code legibility and documentation.
+
+==== Continuous Integration and Quality Assurance
+
+The Foundation provides a full-time staff member and funds projects to improve
+continuous integration, automated testing, and overall quality assurance efforts
+for the FreeBSD project. You can read about CI activities this quarter in a
+dedicated entry.
+
+==== FreeBSD Advocacy and Education
+
+Much of our effort is dedicated to Project advocacy. This may involve
+highlighting interesting FreeBSD work, producing literature and video tutorials,
+attending events, or giving presentations. The goal of the literature we
+produce is to teach people FreeBSD basics and help make their path to adoption
+or contribution easier. Other than attending and presenting at events, we
+encourage and help community members run their own FreeBSD events, give
+presentations, or staff FreeBSD tables.
+
+The FreeBSD Foundation sponsors many conferences, events, and summits around the
+globe. These events can be BSD-related, open source, or technology events
+geared towards underrepresented groups. We support the FreeBSD-focused events
+to help provide a venue for sharing knowledge, working together on projects, and
+facilitating collaboration between developers and commercial users. This all
+helps provide a healthy ecosystem. We support the non-FreeBSD events to promote
+and raise awareness of FreeBSD, to increase the use of FreeBSD in different
+applications, and to recruit more contributors to the Project. We are continuing
+to attend events both in person and virtual as well as planning the November
+Vendor Summit. In addition to attending and planning virtual events, we are
+continually working on new training initiatives and updating our selection of
+link:https://freebsdfoundation.org/freebsd-project/resources/[how-to guides] to
+facilitate getting more folks to try out FreeBSD.
+
+Check out some of the advocacy and education work we did last quarter:

+Thus I would like to encourage all of you to submit reports: reports are useful to share your work, to find help, to have more eyes reviewing your changes, to have more people testing your softwares, to reach a wider audience whenever you need to tell something to all of the FreeBSD community and in many other cases.

+
+The ongoing project aims to support the latest Intel wireless chipsets on FreeBSD using LinuxKPI compat code backed by native net80211 and kernel code.
+In addition work is on the way to support 11n and 11ac standards in the LinuxKPI 802.11 compat code and fill gaps for mostly 11ac in the native net80211 wireless stack.
+
+For the Intel iwlwifi wireless driver there were no major updates in the last months.
+We updated the firmware to the latest publicly available version and fixed some of the most visible bugs.
+Work is also on the way to support the D3 power saving code.
+
+LinuxKPI compat code also got some improvements and fixes which at times were only observable on certain generations of iwlwifi chipsets.
+
+Changes in net80211 and LinuxKPI compat code for 11n and 11ac have little public visibility so far in order to not break basic support.
+Updates to constants based on newer 802.11 standards and other changes without user-visible effect were merged, and
+functional changes will follow in the coming months, initially hidden behind compile-time or runtime options.
+
+Improvements and updates were largely merged back to stable/13 for the benefit of the users tracking this branch and to help with more testing.
+
+For the latest state of the development, please follow the freebsd-wireless mailing list and check the wiki pages.

+The KDE on FreeBSD project packages the software from the KDE Community, along with dependencies and related software, for the FreeBSD ports tree.
+The software includes a full desktop environment called KDE Plasma (for both X11 and Wayland) and hundreds of applications that can be used on any FreeBSD machine.
+
+The KDE team (kde@) is part of desktop@ and x11@, building the software stack to make FreeBSD beautiful and usable as a daily-driver graphics-based desktop machine.
+The notes below describe *mostly* ports for KDE, but also include items that are important for the entire desktop stack.
+
+==== Qt6 Landed
+
+The big news in the KDE ports is not directly KDE-related.
+Qt6 has landed, which prepares us for the next generation of Qt-based applications.
+
+It is now possible to have `USES=qt:6` to select the new Qt version.
+Some ports have been flavorized to make use of the new version.
+
+KDE itself is not affected: the upstream work on KDE Frameworks for Qt6 is not yet completed.
+Most of the KDE Frameworks will compile with Qt6, but that is not important for FreeBSD ports yet.
+With package:devel/qt6[] you get Qt 6.4.0, released at the end of the quarter.
+
+==== KDE Stack
+
+KDE Gear releases happen every quarter, KDE Plasma updates once a month, and KDE Frameworks have a new release every month as well.
+These (large) updates land shortly after their upstream release and are not listed separately.
+
+* KDE Frameworks 5 is now at version 5.98 (latest monthly release from September 2022).
+* KDE Gear is now version 22.08.1 (update for September 2022).
+* KDE Plasma is now version 5.24.6 (update for July 2022).
+
+Note that KDE Plasma 5.25 has been released upstream, but is waiting on fixes before it can land in the ports tree (for example, link:https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=458356[this KActivityManager bug] in KDE's bug-tracker).
