Major update of MacOSX this summer?
Tuesday January 21, 2003. 02:54 AM | Rumor > Apple |
1. Unix OS Free BSD 5.0 is now available.
2. Six months after the appearance of version 4.7, it was integrated in Jaguar.
3. So.... ?!?
New features in BSD 5.0:
- 1TB filesystem barrier... is no more
- need for downtime to do filesystem repair and backup tasks... is no more
- experimental support for Mandatory Access Controls (MAC)
- fine-grained locking in the kernel paves the road for much higher efficiency of multi-processor systems
- support for Bluetooth, ACPI, CardBus, IEEE 1394
- experimental hardware crypto acceleration
- GCC 3.2.1 compiler
- GEOM, extensible and flexible storage framework
- DEVFS, device virtual filesystem
- support for the sparc64 and ia64 platforms
the next OSX features? ;-)
