Some Patches
HTTP accept filter patch
This trivial patch, relative to 8.0-CURRENT May 2009, adds the POST method
to the requests buffered by the accf_http kernel module. This reduces
the webserver's vulnerability to DOS attacks by script kiddies using
scripts like slowloris
accf_http.patch
Note that the http accept filter was not intended to be used as an
anti-DOS tool. For now, this seems to work though.
Sony vaio VGN-S5M/S patch
This patch, relative to 5.4-RELEASE, makes my vaio VGN-S5M/S
laptop recognise the internal SATA controller for what it is.

MP3 player patch
This quirk will make the Time DPA20B 1GB MP3 player work in FreeBSD
5.4-STABLE. I'm told this player is also rebranded as Xirion, so this
may work for some of those players as well.

scsi_da.c.patch
mount_mfs patch
This patch adds the -P option to mount_mfs.
The idea is, when using a filesystem image as backend for a memory
filesystem, you probably don't want to newfs it first. The -P option
skips the newfs part.
This one is against 5.1-current. There's also a FreeBSD
Problem Report.
mdmfs.patch
FTPD patch
The reason for this patch is that I didn't want to accidentally create a
useraccount that can "browse the directory tree" using ftp. With this
patch, when using the new option -c to ftpd, only users that are in the
file /etc/ftpchroot will be allowed access. And they will be restricted
(chrooted) to their own homedirectory.
It's a patch against FreeBSD 4.5 STABLE, but it probably works on later
versions as well.
