VirtualBox is a family of powerful x86 virtualization products for
enterprise as well as home use. Not only is VirtualBox an extremely
feature rich, high performance product for enterprise customers, it
is also the only professional solution that is freely available as
Open Source Software under the terms of the GNU General Public License.
===> The following configuration options are available for virtualbox-ose-kmod-legacy-5.2.44.1403000_7:
DEBUG=off: Debug symbols, additional logs and assertions
INVARIANTS=off: Use if kernel is compiled with INVARIANTS option
VIMAGE=on: VIMAGE virtual networking support

emulators/virtualbox-ose*: Exclude from extract bundled binary files of kBuild
Thes is ~430-640 files, ~30-55MB total for different platforms.
We are using devel/kBuild for build VirtualBox ports.
devel/kBuild is a newer version than the one included in the VirtualBox
tarballs.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

emulators/virtualbox-ose-kmod*: Tie to a specific release branch.
Use a more restricted range of supported __FreeBSD_version values for
the virtualbox kernel module since it uses internal KPIs for which KBI
stability is not guaranteed. DECLARE_MODULE_TIED would tie the module
to a specific __FreeBSD_version which would cause the module to stop
loading when an SA or EN is pushed on a release branch. Instead, use
DECLARE_MODULE_MAXVER with an upper bound that is limited to the range
of a releng branch so that a module built on X.Y will load on X.Y with
SAs or ENs applied but will fail to load on X.Y-1 or X.Y+1.

Fix CONFLICTS entries of multiple ports
There have been lots of missing CONFLICTS_INSTALL entries, either
because conflicting ports were added without updating existing ports,
due to name changes of generated packages, due to mis-understanding
the format and semantics of the conflicts entries, or just due to
typoes in package names.
This patch is the result of a comparison of all files contained in
the official packages with each other. This comparison was based on
packages built with default options and may therefore have missed
further conflicts with optionally installed files.
Where possible, version numbers in conflicts entries have been
generalized, some times taking advantage of the fact that a port

*/*: Remove redundant '-*' from CONFLICTS definitions
The conflict checks compare the patterns first against the package
names without version (as reported by "pkg query "%n"), then - if
there was no match - agsinst the full package names including the
version (as reported by "pkg query "%n-%v").

emulators/virtualbox-ose-kmod-legacy: Fix hang at module loading time
After src commit e266a0f7f001 a module is not allowed to call
kern_kldload while being loaded. The virtualbox module is doing
exactly this though. virutalbox used to do this because the ng_ether
netgraph node did not provide version information in the past and
there was no way to properly depend on it.
ng_ether has gained versioning information in base r238844 more
than ten years ago, so we can now unconditionally properly depend
on it, since this revision is now included in all supported FreeBSD
versions.
Thanks to Tomoaki AOKI for identifying the base commuit exposing
the issue.

- Update VirtualBox OSE to 6.1.18
- Old VirtualBox OSE 5.2.44 preserved as "-legacy" versions of the
ports (repocopied)
- Add back extra patch removed in r528258, actually required to
build DEBUG kmod
- Correctly define WITH_DEBUG when enabling the DEBUG option, so
binaries are not stripped
Please note that this new version supports only amd64 CPUs. If you need
to use older hardware please install the legacy ports.
Note that moving VM snapshots across major updates is unsupported, it's
strongly suggested to properly shutdown VMs before upgrading, please

Remove virtualbox-*-legacy due to lack of staging
The virtualbox-ose-kmod-legacy port is staged, but it has no purpose
without the unstaged virtualbox-ose-legacy port, so both ports have
been removed at the same time.
- Remove devel/dev86 from BUILD_DEPENDS and devel/bcc from CONFLICTS. It
has not been used for very long time.
- Remove devel/yasm from BUILD_DEPENDS for kernel module. It is actually
unnecessary for building kmod.

- Convert USE_PYDISTUTILS=easy_install to USE_PYDISTUTILS=yes
- Add patch to fix building with new gsoap [1]

- Update to virtualbox-ose 4.2.20_1
- This update pulls in many changes from the port and brings better support
for FreeBSD 10 and GCC from ports. I am doing that in preparation of the
upcoming VirtualBox 4.3 update that should land soon.
In the rc.d scripts, change assignments to rcvar to use the
literal name_enable wherever possible, and ${name}_enable
when it's not, to prepare for the demise of set_rcvar().
In cases where I had to hand-edit unusual instances also
modify formatting slightly to be more uniform (and in
some cases, correct). This includes adding some $FreeBSD$
tags, and most importantly moving rcvar= to right after
name= so it's clear that one is derived from the other.
- Fix PG_UNMANAGED compile problem on HEAD after r224746.
Remove explicit initialization of m->flags and m->oflags because per
default vm_phys_alloc_contig() already initializes the page as unmanaged.
Chase move of PG_UNMANAGED flag from m->flags to m->oflags and renaming
to VPO_UNMANAGED for an additional assert.
