+       The random(4) support for the VIA hardware random number
+       generator (`PADLOCK') is no longer enabled unconditionally.
+       Add the PADLOCK_RNG option in the custom kernel config if
+       needed.  The GENERIC kernels on i386 and amd64 do include the
+       option, so the change only affects the custom kernel
+       configurations.

        The pf(4) packet filter ABI has been changed. pfctl(8) and
        snmp_pf module need to be recompiled to work with new kernel.
