Block 16 is attempting to be read for 0 bytes. Something is very
bogus here. There were some changes today that may or may not clear this-
see if that helps. If not, we have to figure why the hell a zero byte read
is being sent down. Why there's any dataphase at all is a mystery too.

If he is using -current, then this is almost certainly because of PHK's
changes. It should have been fixed by his checkin earlier Saturday.
I reproduced this behavior on my test system that has an Adaptec
controller. The symptoms were the same -- a READ command with a block
number specified but with no length.
I'm not sure why there is a data phase at all, but my guess is that the
drive tries to return at least one block.
In any case, cvsup again, try a new kernel and see if the problem goes
away.

I have an Alphastation 200 4/233 that I just did a make world on going from
3.2-Release to 3.3-Stable. After Make world I compiled a new kernel and
installed it. When I went to reboot, it gets to "jumping to bootstrap code"
then hangs there
Anyone have any ideas for me?

Getting the same sorts of problems; System is a PC164SX w/a Diamond
Stealth 3D 2000...under twm got wierd stripes of titlebar color in
some resolution modes..fvwm2 looked fine but I couldn't move windows...
afterstep is prety mellow but the toolbar is a set of solid black
boxes lined up on the side of the screen, but clicking on one of
them launches xterms :> If I click and produce the application
laucher menu over an xterm the menu becomes the new permanent
background of the xterm...also switching out to a console with
ctrl-alt-f2 made the system wig and reboot.
So what's with all of these netcape ports saying they don't work
on alpha? I managed to get netscape working under debian + XFree86;
Is the x86 emulation not as far along in FreeBSD?

I've been trying to boot a recent (9/15) 4.0 snapshot on a DS10 system. It
hangs probing the PCI bus(the last messages I see are:
preloaded elf kernel ...
preloaded mfsroot ...
pcib0: <21271 PCI host bus adapter> on tsunami0
I've tried several SCSI adapters, several PCI graphics cards, and two
versions of the Alpha
firmware (5.4 and 5.5-1) without success.
Has anyone successfully booted FreeBSD on a DS10? Please let me know what
you did!

I actually never got further than fvwm2 on debian before I managed to
get the right kind of scsi controller to let me boot FreeBSD :> I'll
give kde a shot...my suspicion is that it's a problem with my X
configuration, 'cause some of the video glitches look similar to others
I've had in the past...I just thought I oughta throw some data in the
pool since other people are having the same trouble :>

Ergh...so it netscape out of reach then? I kind of need a 128-bit ssl

Maurice,
I'm the author of the platform support for the family of machine which
includes the DS10 & XP1000. While XP1000 support is working & fairly
well tested, support for DS10 is currently known to be broken.
I don't have access to a DS10 right now, but I am awaiting the arrival
of a number of DS10s from our reseller. When they arrive, I *hope* to
be able to fix the problem in short order. I'm guessing the machines
won't arrive until the end of this week at best, most likely sometime
next week. If you need your DS10 to work sooner than that, let's
start talking off-line...
Also, if you have a chance, I would appreciate the output of 'show
conf' from the SRM console on a DS10.
Thanks,
Drew

Currently our support for this system is limited to diskless since the
driver for its scsi controller hasn't been ported to the CAM framework.

The DEC3000 series of machine will only work in a diskless
configuration because their disk controller is currently unsupported.
If you want a machine that "just works", my advice is to run NetBSD on
the 3000 family of systems.
However, if you're interested in contributing to the FreeBSD/alpha
project you could port the esp driver to CAM or, (better still) write
a turbochannel front-end for the already CAM amd SCSI driver
(/sys/pci/amd.c)
Cheers,
Drew

I am still having problems with the ATA driver.
I am seeing the same error messages as has been reported on the lists during
the last few weeks, both on i386 and alpha platforms.
On the i386, the problem is just an irritating itch, but it seems to be
far more serious on the alpha, where the system reboots instantly when the
problems occur.
On reboot, the system stops at the probing of disks, reporting a timeout.
Then, the system reboots again, probing and rebooting in an endless loop.
I have the latest sources, as cvsupped today, October 6th.
I can provide more information on the system configuration if needed, but I
have no access to it right now.

I have a new version almost ready that should fix this problem, including
the panic on the alpha. It just a bit more testing then I'll commit it...

There is a slight #include problem with the Alpha header files, it all
boils down to u_int* being used used /sys/alpha/include/alpha_cpu.h In
building yacc..
cc -O -pipe -c /usr/src/usr.bin/yacc/main.c
In file included from /usr/include/machine/frame.h:34,
from /usr/include/machine/ucontext.h:34,
from /usr/include/sys/ucontext.h:34,
from /usr/include/sys/signal.h:238,
from /usr/include/signal.h:44,
from /usr/src/usr.bin/yacc/main.c:52:
/usr/include/machine/alpha_cpu.h:299: syntax error before `alpha_ldbu'
Now, shoudl this be fixed with an #include <sys/types.h> as being a
necessary pre-requisite to include signals.h, with that we're placing a
requirement on programmers that they'll never catch when testing on
i386, meaning running into this more than once (already more than a few
programs will break compiling, yacc is merely the first in the make
world chain.
I've currently included sys/types.h in alpha_cpu.h, which is hackish
but at least gets the world built. I'm now doing the buildworld to see
what breaks, but I can't see it's clear what the optimial solution is.
I would say to put in the extra #include in alpha_cpu or possibly higher
up in the chain, but requiring it in all applications probably means
we're going to be doing a few bouts of patching.
The kernel built without a hitch.

I think the latest version of sys/alpha/include/ucontext.h no longer needs
to include frame.h at all.

I'm sure it's something stupid like a missing header file or a broken
sym-link, but when I try to compile the egcs port on my alpha under
3.3-STABLE, It barfs on just about every line with a "vsprintf" line in
it. I commented out most of them, since they looked like just error
reporting routines, but now I can't read the errors to figure out what I
did wrong. *sigh* Anyone else have any ideas?

Hello,
I tried to install Free BSD 3.3 on a Multia last night.
I used the two floppies from the 4.0 snapshot which worked fine on the 3.1 install. Everything went smooth Free BSD seems to install.
After the sucessful install I tred to reboot the system and failed. I did a boot dka0 -flags a. But with or without flags the system starts coming up and wants to boot /boot/kernel. There it fails, because it is unable to open /boot/kernel.
On this machine I had running Red Hat 6.0 sucessfully before.
Any hints?
Oh, I lost the bookmark from the web page where somebody desribed how he did the Free BSD install on a Multia. If anybody still knows the URL, please send it to me.
Regards
Kai

Looks like a divide by zero but I can't see any further than that without
a stacktrace. Can some just send an alpha system to Poul so that he can
test before committing stuff..

>Description:
The kldstat command gives information about the address, size etc of
loadable kernel modules. However, on 64-bit machines, the addresses
are 64-bits wide. This makes the address value run into the size
value in the output of the kldstat command. For example, here's a
sample output of kldstat on a 500MHz Alphastation:
Id Refs Address Size Name
1 1 0xfffffc0000300000 3eab80 kernel
Notice how the address and size fields run into each other due to
inadequate space provided for the address on a 64-bit machine.
>How-To-Repeat:
Simply issue the command 'kldstat' on an alpha.
>Fix:
Just modify the kldstat program to reserve sufficient space for
printing out the address field on 64-bit machines.

I can't get hold of the machine right now, but as far as I remember it said:
can't open /boot/kernel
I have a second multia here, I will try it this evening to reproduce the problem.

It prints this message:

I'd like to know what kind of restrictions there are on how big an
mmap object can be, how big of an address space one process can have, and
other similar things which are limited by the 32-bit word size on the i386
port.
Any information, or pointers to information, will be greatly appreciated.

I know that this is sort-of a known problem, but I hope to find people
with strong memories to help me ;-)
Situation: DEC3000/400 "Sandpiper" doing a BOOTP netboot:
>>> boot ez0

FreeBSD/alpha SRM net boot, Revision 0.1
(root@alpine.iaf.nl, Mon Jul 12 05:13:52 CEST 1999)
Memory: 65536 k
netbbinfo valid: force = 0, ea = 08:00:2b:3c:61:45
boot: boot device name does not contain ethernet address.
boot: using hard-coded ethernet address.
boot: ethernet address: 08:00:2b:3c:61:45
prom_init: open failed: 7
Boot device name was: "BOOTP 0 7 0 0 0 2 CORE-IO"
Your firmware may be too old to network-boot NetBSD/Alpha,
or you might have to hard-code an ethernet address into
your network boot block with setnetbootinfo(8).
?05 HLT INSTR
PC= 00000000.2000003C PSL= 00000000.00000007
>>>
The first thing I had to do is port (well, quick hack) NetBSD's setnetbootinfo
for use on FreeBSD as it is missing from the source tree. This was needed
because the Sandpiper's SRM did not send the MAC address as part of the
boot device name. But a hardcoded MAC address did not solve the issue,
the boot device name string returned "BOOTP 0 7 0 0 0 2 CORE-IO"
is one field short from what netboot expects. The last field is the device
to boot from. I *guess* it needs to be EZ0 but I could be wrong.
As for a different SRM version: the latest (V7.0) is not doing BOOTP
correctly at all so it looks that one is out.
Are there people on this list that have successfully booted a DEC3000 using
netboot? If so, which SRM version did you use (assuming there is a working
one, which I doubt) or did you hack netboot to make this happen?
