2024-11-06 Today brought in a new category: filesystems. Sadly, the website did not process it well. I am working on that. It may take a few days.
2024-11-07 Commit processing is halted. I have a fix for the new category. It is making its way through the system.
UPDATE: the backend is processing the original filesystems commit now. It should take about an hour.
UPDATE: as of 20:30 UTC, the filesystems commit has been processed. Commit processing is now up to date.

Description:
The sandsifter audits x86 processors for hidden instructions and hardware bugs, by systematically generating machine code to search through a processor's instruction set, and monitoring execution for anomalies. Sandsifter has uncovered secret processor instructions from every major vendor; ubiquitous software bugs in disassemblers, assemblers, and emulators; flaws in enterprise hypervisors; and both benign and security-critical hardware bugs in x86 chips. Run this program under sudo so that it will use the correct directories to store its data. WWW: https://github.com/rigred/sandsifter

Remove most expired ports that depend on Python 2.7:

Exceptions are:
- mail/mailman, our listservers still use it
- www/chromium, solely because of popular demand,
  upstream is (slowly) working on porting it to Python 3
- ports that have actual patches for Python 3 against
  them (Cinnamon and a few unrelated other ports)
- llvm70 and qt5-webengine because they seem to have a lot
  of dependencies which need further analysis
- sysutils/uefi-edk2-bhyve because bhyve seems to use them
- python2 and python27 themselves

I'm sure there will be complaints, but the nice thing about
a version control system is that we can revert and adjust things.

Bump the Capstone library version to 4

This port is dependant on both the Capstone library and the Python
bindings for Capstone. The version of the library has to be bumped to 4 as
the bindings version has to be kept in sync with the library version in
order to avoid build problems.

security/sandsifter: update to version 1.03

This version is based on a fork of the original repository (which was
itself a fork) and is the same fork that Debian and Ubuntu use. The
previous repository is no longer under development.

Some binaries have been renamed by the new upstream.

Extend pkg-messsage with some more usage instructions.
