The other 3 printfs that are supposed to follow that message never came out. The interesting this is that my machine died just at the same point where I've been having lockups when starting my PPP connection. For the past several days or so I've been getting lockup where everything is sleeping on "lockrd" (something in the vm code) just as my PPP connection is established. I suspect that the above crash is related. Now the other interesting this is that at the same time as the "lockrd" hangups started, pppd started doing something strange. It will run the /etc/ip-up script, immediately run the /etc/ip-down script and then immediately run the /etc/ip-up script again and leave the connection up. I'm going to go play around and see exactly what I have in those two scripts that might be causing problems, but I thought I would mention it here in case anyone had any ideas. All of these problems have happened with various -current kernels over the past several days (maybe even as long as a week). The "double fault" problem just happened with a kernel I sup-ed at 7 am this morning. -- Mike Pritchard mpp@minn.net "Go that way. Really fast.

After some playing around, I came up with a little shell script that will lock my machine up consistently, although it doesn't look like the same hang as above.

Of course. But ``disklabel ... auto'' is way more convenient if it comes to Usenet support. I've simply been tired from singing the same prayer over and over again... Well, i'm aware that i've stolen the word "auto" from the possible name space of /etc/disktab :), but i think the added value justifies this. > It gives the same bogus values for the interleave and the rpm and the > same maximal number of partitions. Deliberately. I don't think we support more than 8 partitions, and the bogus rpm and interleave values are not used that much anyways (since newfs uses a bogus geometry by default).

Yup, i have only been able to test it on a non-sliced disk (due to the lack of a sliced one around me :), i was silently hoping that DIOCGDINFO would return the bogus label for a slice too -- it does even for a CDROM. ;-) I've rather hacked this since it was a ``Frequently Requested Item'', not since it's the cleanest solution i could ever think of. I'm still in the hope that somebody feels challenged enough to wrap a nice tool around libdisk for adding a new disk with a better user-interaction. disklabel ... auto is only intended for people who do already know how to use disklabel(8), just to save them the dirty work. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-) From owner-freebsd-current Mon Jan 22 12:56:24 1996 Return-Path: owner-current Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.3/8.7.3) id MAA12837 for current-outgoing; Mon, 22 Jan 1996 12:56:24 -0800 (PST) Received: from news1.gtn.com (news1.gtn.com [192.109.159.3]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.3/8.7.3) with ESMTP id MAA12825 Mon, 22 Jan 1996 12:56:20 -0800 (PST) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by news1.gtn.com (8.7.2/8.7.2) id VAA13895; Mon, 22 Jan 1996 21:30:18 +0100 (MET) Received: from knobel.gun.de (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by knobel.gun.de (8.7.3/8.7.3) with SMTP id VAA01539; Mon, 22 Jan 1996 21:19:04 +0100 (MET) Date: Mon, 22 Jan 1996 21:19:02 +0100 (MET) From: Andreas Klemm To: Dima Ruban cc: Nate Williams , dtc@scrooge.ee.swin.oz.au, jdp@freebsd.org, sos@freebsd.org, dima@best.net, current@freebsd.org Subject: Re: problems in -current (was Re: awk broken ???)

The user-space arp program also needs some fixes to make it harder to create strange proxy entries. It's still possible to have three different ARP table entries for the same host if you are sufficiently confused about it, and /usr/sbin/arp can make things pretty confusing =) Bill From owner-freebsd-current Mon Jan 22 13:30:39 1996 Return-Path: owner-current Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.3/8.7.3) id NAA15628 for current-outgoing; Mon, 22 Jan 1996 13:30:39 -0800 (PST) Received: from werple.net.au (werple.mira.net.au [203.9.190.18]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.3/8.7.3) with ESMTP id NAA15619 for ; Mon, 22 Jan 1996 13:30:34 -0800 (PST) Received: from cimaxp1.UUCP (Ucimlogi@localhost) by werple.net.au (8.7/8.7.1) with UUCP id HAA03126 for current@FreeBSD.org; Tue, 23 Jan 1996 07:55:09 +1100 (EST) Message-Id: <199601222055.HAA03126@werple.net.au> X-Authentication-Warning: werple.net.au: Ucimlogi set sender to cimaxp1!jb using -f Received: by cimaxp1.cimlogic.com.au; (5.65/1.1.8.2/10Sep95-0953AM) id AA15501; Tue, 23 Jan 1996 07:54:45 +1100 From: John Birrell Subject: Re: Problem making world (thread-related).

I'd like to ask people, however, not to switch it off by default. If you encounter problems, please send me a note so that I can collect information about non-conformant TCP implementations and eventually find a way to make vendors fix their TCPs. Which, by the way, the next versions of all KA9Q nos programs should have this fixed (thanks to Phil Karn). If anyone needs copies of the proper patch to NOS, let me know.

Near the top, it should say this: # $Id: bsd.lib.mk,v 1.29 1996/01/21 17:26:25 jdp Exp $ If the revision number --------^ is not 1.29, then you still have the bad version of the file. Another way to tell is to grep for the string "CPLUSPLUSLIB". If that string is not present in the file, then you still have the bad version. Also check /usr/share/mk/bsd.lib.mk, just to make sure that you haven't somehow installed the bad version of the file there. If you have the up-to-date (1.29) version of the file, and you are still having the same problems, then you must be skipping some part of the build process, and still using bad old libraries. -- John From owner-freebsd-current Mon Jan 22 17:05:04 1996 Return-Path: owner-current Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.3/8.7.3) id RAA07637 for current-outgoing; Mon, 22 Jan 1996 17:05:04 -0800 (PST) Received: from apollo.COSC.GOV (root@apollo.COSC.GOV [198.94.103.34]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.3/8.7.3) with ESMTP id RAA07618 for ; Mon, 22 Jan 1996 17:04:59 -0800 (PST) Received: (from vince@localhost) by apollo.COSC.GOV (8.7.3/8.6.9) id RAA01687; Mon, 22 Jan 1996 17:04:58 -0800 (PST) Date: Mon, 22 Jan 1996 17:04:56 -0800 (PST) From: -Vince- To: "Justin T.

The whole issue about our tcp extention support was in relation to terminal servers with broken slip implementations (enabling VJ header compression would cause problems). This has nothing to do with broken routers.

Hmmm, I'm not sure but I think I asked like if I should enable tcp extensions on a Cisco 2501 router using a NE2000 ethernet card on the FreeBSD box but I guess you just got confused.

So boot with the '-s' flag at freebsd's boot prompt. When in single user mode: # swapon -a # mount -at ufs # csh # cd /usr/src possibly you want to change values in /etc/make.conf for the whole build...then # vi /etc/make.conf Make world... # time make world >& world.log & # tail -f world.log # to wath the latest progress Go and drink some coffees ;-)) Make world also does install the new binaries.

But that's what the lists are for: you should remember what's going on, and possibly store the mails for later reference (or grab it from the list archives on freefall). That's also what happened to me yesterday, when my 386 box paniced with a privileged instruction fault after intalling a new snap.

I don't remember exactly what the answer was (look in the mail lists archive), but it seems to have something to do with the way the u structure is allocated in the kernel now. David Greenman wamts to make some wide sweeping changes in the kernel so that the u-dot doesn't even exist any longer.

I've had some problems over the past several weeks with what appeared to be some routing problems, but I now believe they are related to the T/TCP (more specificly RFC 1644) implementation in FreeBSD 2.1R. To help illustrate my problem here is a simple network diagram. A B +-------+--------+ | (Ethernet) (FW) | +--+-------C | | | | (PPP) | +-------D | | +-------E Where: Machine C, D and E are FreeBSD 2.1R. Machine A is SunOS. Machine B is Solaris 2.5. Machine A, B, C and D are all within the same domain behind a firewall. Machine E is outside on the Internet. Here is the problem. >From machine D I could ping and traceroute to machine C and E. I could not use and other services (e.g. ftp, rlogin, telnet, http, etc). I would have to go through and intermediate machine (e.g. A or B) to get to C. When ever I tried to access one of these machines (C or E) from D the connection appeared to startup up and then hang. Netstat showed that the connection had been made but output at the terminal never completed (i.e. I never saw the login prompt). For a while I thought I had a routing problem, but when I boot machine D using Windows I could get to machine C and E with no problems. When I first read this thread I felt the problem might be remotely related. When I disabled RFC 1644 support on machine C and D I was able to get into both C and E from D without any problems. Forgive me if this sounds like a silly question, but did anybody test T/TCP between two FreeBSD 2.1R machines?

Doing that works nicely for folks running sup, but for us running ctm, getting out of sync with the CVS tree, even by one byte, means that ctm breaks without hope of repair, and an entire new source tree has to be downloaded. Since many of us are connected through hosts that make it difficult to download 30 meg chunks, this means going out and begging for ftp space. Distasteful. Because of this, I (at least, and probably others too) am not terribly willing to make manual changes to my source tree. I usually cultivate patience, and wait for the fixes to come down through commits. If things are broken, and commits don't fix it, it surely does put part of the users in a bad position. This hasn't happened before, and I don't think it's likely to happen again, but maybe it's something to keep in mind, when fixing things that have gone bonkers; posting a diff isn't enough. ============================================================================ Chuck Robey chuckr@eng.umd.edu -- I run FreeBSD on n3lxx and Journey2 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Dilbert Zone is Dilbert's new WWW home!

Many terminal servers have troubles with the timestamp and T/TCP options. The reason that it works from D->A but not from D->C is that neither SunOS nor Solaris use the extensions so D turns them off during connection startup. The reason it fails from D->C is that the extensions get negotiated but your PPP server can't deal with the extensions.

I don't understand why _thread_init isn't being inserted into a linker set that is called for initialization at startup time (per C++ virtual base class constructor initialization). It *should* be possible to live without the thing in any cause, causing initialization to occur on first reference.

I have always planned, but never gotten around to make ctm handle this. The working concept is that if we are working on file "FOO" then if there exist a file FOO.ctm, then I will apply the change to that instead. That way you can change a file like this: cp foo_file.c foo_file.c.ctm vi foo_file.c and so on... Now as you have noticed, patch can be told what suffix to use instead of ".orig" soo...

Ok, but then please tell me another easy way how I can proofe the quality of the resulting code... I simply thought, that _if_ there are patches for gcc, that add support for a Pentium processor, then nearly every kind of executable should speed up because gcc now uses the whole power of ... hmmm let's say instruction set.

The SPEC benchmarks seem to be what everybody uses, but, unfortunately, they cost money. I'd recommend that you look at the comp.benchmarks FAQ. The latest version is at: ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet-by-group/comp.benchmarks/ in the file "comp.benchmarks_Frequently_Asked_Questions,_With_Answers". (No kidding!) An older version is on the Web at: http://hpwww.epfl.ch/bench/bench.FAQ.html > I simply thought, that _if_ there are patches for gcc, that add support > for a Pentium processor, then nearly every kind of executable should > speed up because gcc now uses the whole power of ... hmmm let's say > instruction set. > > I really didn't expect slower results.

I really don't know whether the Pentium patches are any good or not -- I have no idea. I was only trying to make the point that Dhrystone is not a good benchmark to use for modern compilers. It was always supposed to be a hardware benchmark anyway, not a compiler benchmark. The instructions that came with it used to forbid you from turning on optimization when compiling it! Dhrystone is dominated by string operations, especially strcpy with a constant source string, like this: strcpy(buf, "Man soll das Fell des B酺en nicht verteilen," " bevor man ihn erlegt hat."); Dhrystone-aware compiler writers long ago added optimizations that turn this construct into an open-coded string of 4-byte store immediate instructions. (I've done it myself a few times.) Doing so makes the Dhrystone run blindingly fast, but it doesn't make a significant difference for any real-world application. Maybe this kind of optimization confuses the changes introduced by the Pentium patches -- who knows? My point was just that the numbers you get from Dhrystone aren't a reliable basis for drawing any conclusions about your compiler. Besides, if I remember correctly, the two numbers you quoted were, relatively speaking, _very_ close together. The difference between them is probably not significant. -- John From owner-freebsd-current Tue Jan 23 16:58:54 1996 Return-Path: owner-current Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.3/8.7.3) id QAA02482 for current-outgoing; Tue, 23 Jan 1996 16:58:54 -0800 (PST) Received: from eel.dataplex.net (EEL.DATAPLEX.NET [199.183.109.245]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.3/8.7.3) with SMTP id QAA02469 for ; Tue, 23 Jan 1996 16:58:35 -0800 (PST) Received: from [199.183.109.242] (cod [199.183.109.242]) by eel.dataplex.net (8.6.11/8.6.9) with SMTP id SAA06669; Tue, 23 Jan 1996 18:55:06 -0600 X-Sender: rkw@shark.dataplex.net Message-Id: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Date: Tue, 23 Jan 1996 18:55:23 -0600 To: Chuck Robey From: Richard Wackerbarth Subject: Re: recent diffs Cc: current@FreeBSD.org Sender: owner-current@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk >A couple of times recently, there have been suggestions made that I make >manual changes to my sources, >Because of this, I (at least, and probably others too) am not terribly >willing to make manual changes to my source tree. The trick is that you make the changes to YOUR tree, not to the FreeBSD distributed tree. Move their tree to /pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src and then clone it in /usr/src with the lndir command. You can then copy and edit the file of two that you wish to change. That way the reference tree is not disturbed. The only real problem is that you have to watch for changes to routines that you have modified and merge those with your own. ---- Richard Wackerbarth rkw@dataplex.net From owner-freebsd-current Tue Jan 23 22:50:20 1996 Return-Path: owner-current Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.3/8.7.3) id WAA02206 for current-outgoing; Tue, 23 Jan 1996 22:50:20 -0800 (PST) Received: from news1.gtn.com (news1.gtn.com [192.109.159.3]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.3/8.7.3) with ESMTP id WAA02201 for ; Tue, 23 Jan 1996 22:50:16 -0800 (PST) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by news1.gtn.com (8.7.2/8.7.2) id HAA25983; Wed, 24 Jan 1996 07:45:30 +0100 (MET) Received: (from andreas@localhost) by knobel.gun.de (8.7.3/8.7.3) id HAA00431; Wed, 24 Jan 1996 07:44:30 +0100 (MET) From: Andreas Klemm Message-Id: <199601240644.HAA00431@knobel.gun.de> Subject: Re: dhrystone 2.1 result for gcc-2.7.2 with Pentium patches is poor To: swallace@ece.uci.edu (Steven Wallace) Date: Wed, 24 Jan 1996 07:44:30 +0100 (MET) Cc: current@freebsd.org In-Reply-To: <199601232158.NAA05346@newport.ece.uci.edu> from "Steven Wallace" at Jan 23, 96 01:58:33 pm X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24 ME8b] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-current@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk > > Where are those patches? > I found them in Germany on: http://www-iss.mach.uni-karlsruhe.de/pcg/source.html Andreas /// -- andreas@knobel.gun.de /\/\___ Wiechers & Partner Datentechnik GmbH Andreas Klemm ___/\/\/ - Support Unix - aklemm@wup.de - \/ ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/Printing/aps-491.tgz apsfilter - magic print filter 4lpd >>> knobel is powered by FreeBSD <<< From owner-freebsd-current Wed Jan 24 01:23:16 1996 Return-Path: owner-current Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.3/8.7.3) id BAA13698 for current-outgoing; Wed, 24 Jan 1996 01:23:16 -0800 (PST) Received: from irz301.inf.tu-dresden.de (irz301.inf.tu-dresden.de [141.76.1.11]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.3/8.7.3) with SMTP id BAA13676 for ; Wed, 24 Jan 1996 01:22:47 -0800 (PST) Received: from sax.sax.de by irz301.inf.tu-dresden.de (8.6.12/8.6.12-s1) with ESMTP id KAA22102 for ; Wed, 24 Jan 1996 10:22:02 +0100 Received: by sax.sax.de (8.6.11/8.6.12-s1) with UUCP id KAA00206 for FreeBSD-current@FreeBSD.ORG; Wed, 24 Jan 1996 10:22:02 +0100 Received: (from j@localhost) by uriah.heep.sax.de (8.7.3/8.6.9) id KAA10290 for FreeBSD-current@FreeBSD.ORG; Wed, 24 Jan 1996 10:10:36 +0100 (MET) From: J Wunsch Message-Id: <199601240910.KAA10290@uriah.heep.sax.de> Subject: Re: recent diffs To: FreeBSD-current@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Wed, 24 Jan 1996 10:10:35 +0100 (MET) Reply-To: joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de (Joerg Wunsch) In-Reply-To: <5535.822431340@critter.tfs.com> from "Poul-Henning Kamp" at Jan 23, 96 10:09:00 pm X-Phone: +49-351-2012 669 X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL23] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk As Poul-Henning Kamp wrote: > I have always planned, but never gotten around to make ctm handle this. > The working concept is that if we are working on file "FOO" then if > there exist a file FOO.ctm, then I will apply the change to that instead. > Only problem, I havn't had time.

This is a special case of a grander optimization scheme I thought about, for all files removed and added (and a move is considered a add&remove for now) try to see if any of the removed files can be used to construct the added ones.

The numbers of logical drives after the first may differ due to different linearizations of the extended partition tree. >FreeBSD fdisk returns "partition 0" for the extended partition itself. FreeBSD fdisk doesn't support extended partitions or logical drives in them. Use sysinstall or /usr/src/release/libdisk/tst01 to see where they are. Use another fdisk to create them. Use `cd /dev; sh MAKEDEV wd0s5' to create devices for the logical drive (but not for the BSD partitions). All possible logical drives and partitions for them aren't created by default because there are too many possibilities (about 512 per drive).

Once i'm pressing the up arrow key while configuring the ed0 parameters, it page faults. All works fine if i run the non-visual config, however, and the kernel at least boots into multi-user as well.

I found the need to rerun *extremely* annoying. This fix causes the count to be correctly adjusted later in pass 4 by correctly stating the parent reference count. Note that the parent reference count is incremented when the directory entry is made (for ".."), but is not really there in the case of a directory that does not make an entry in its parent dir. This can be tested by waiting for the inode sync after cd'ing from a shell into a test fs. Then you "mkdir xxx yyy zzz", wait a second, and hit the machine reset button.

Same here. > Finally, in the line 278 code there is a "NCR" and in the line 342 > code there is a "NRC". Is each correct?

Hmm, is this before or after PHK's new printf stuff? visuserconfig uses printf pretty heavily, and any funnies would cause unspeakable havoc. Can you give some idea of where it's crashing? If you're seeing stack corruption, I'd blame printf, but if it's repeatable and not stack-based then I'll have to have a look 8( > This is an i386 with an MDA display (in case it matters :).

I'm getting a weird problem lately, where when I try to compile something *large*, like the full kernel sources from scratch, after a period of time, the compile just hangs there. For instance, its currently at '../../kern/kern_acct.c'. If I ctl-c out of the compile and restart it, it continues from where I stopped it and finishes the kernel. I *just* installed the newest kernel, and am currently working at a make world, which also hangs after an indeterminate amount of time, to which I again, ctl-c and restart and its continues on its merry way. Purely a theory, but this only started happening *after* the vm stuff was upgraded... Marc G.

Our pipes have been a bit slower than they should be, considering the simple functionality that they perform. The latest results that I get show significant performance improvements in both the Byte and lmbench benchmarks on pipe latency, pipe bandwidth, and pipe context switch. The stuff on my workstation includes this new code, and is isolated well enough that it is "theoretically" possible to include even into -stable (not likely though.) Pipe latency is about 2x the speed, pipe bandwidth is about 50% faster, and I am still evaluating the context switch -- but it is faster. Before I include the changes, I plan to add more intelligent memory management of pipes (including making them pageable -- instead of tieing up wired memory), and page-flipping. Page-flipping should add about 50% more onto the bandwidth. Anyway, the code is simpler than I had first thought that it would be, and should probably be ready for testing in the next week or so...

I read the Lai/Baker paper: in "Figure 1", FreeBSD kicks some serious butt on context switches -- it appears to be both flat and linear past 200 processes (the limit of the graph in the figure). I would be loathe to screw with what is essentially "perfection", IMO. Solaris is on the order of 3 times slower until 30 processes, and jumps to 6-9 times slower based on algorithm (the worst algorithm being the one they must use in the SMP case).

I rememebr that the pipe performance was a factor for the context switch overhead; I wasn't sure which aspect of context switching you were addressing. I'd definitely like to see the line drop across the board, but trading back end for front end is (IMO) undesirable. Have you gotten a copy of the "ctx" program they used in the paper to get their benchmark results? I'd be interested in something like this as an add-on to the general diagnostic tools available for FreeBSD anyway...

Yup. In order to provide support for weird devices that claim to be something else than they actually are (magneto-optical drives that claim to be T_DIRECT, CD recorders that pretend T_READONLY (CD-ROM)), i've included an additional field there in -current. The first one is used to match the device (together with the vendor and model strings), while the second one assigns it to a particular driver. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-) From owner-freebsd-current Fri Jan 26 15:22:45 1996 Return-Path: owner-current Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.3/8.7.3) id PAA06009 for current-outgoing; Fri, 26 Jan 1996 15:22:45 -0800 (PST) Received: from godzilla.zeta.org.au (godzilla.zeta.org.au [203.2.228.19]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.3/8.7.3) with SMTP id PAA06003 Fri, 26 Jan 1996 15:22:40 -0800 (PST) Received: (from bde@localhost) by godzilla.zeta.org.au (8.6.9/8.6.9) id KAA27798; Sat, 27 Jan 1996 10:17:54 +1100 Date: Sat, 27 Jan 1996 10:17:54 +1100 From: Bruce Evans Message-Id: <199601262317.KAA27798@godzilla.zeta.org.au> To: dyson@freefall.freebsd.org, terry@lambert.org Subject: Re: Good news -- pipe stuff Cc: current@freefall.freebsd.org Sender: owner-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk >I think that the context switch performance improvement that I would expect >to see would be mostly an artifact of the measurement method (improving >pipe perf.)

Don't forget about named pipes (fifofs) which also suffer from many bugs and inefficiencies from going through the socket layer. The bugs involve not setting file attributes quite right.

However, iozone reports that writes are slightly faster than 2 weeks ago. The only significant difference between iozone writes and bonnie writes is that iozone writes are page-aligned while bonnie writes aren't. Not page aligning the buffers is stupid but shouldn't have such a large penalty.
