No, that's backwards. From the section of the handbook you refer, FIPS allows you to split an existing MS-DOS partition into two pieces, preserving the original partition and allowing you to install onto the second free piece... Afterwards, you can reboot and install FreeBSD on the new free slice. ^^^^^ Also, from dfisk(8) BUGS . .

Actually you can have multiple slices on a dangerously dedicated disk. Try the following: do a dangerously dedicated install onto a small disk. then do a dd to copy the small disk to a bigger one. boot off the new disk and run sysinstall.

I might mention a few gotchas. As Kevin stated, read the pccardd docs. However you go about installing the system, snapshot or release, after you makeworld be sure to rebuild pccardd. Also read LINT on adding apm support. Otherwise you will run into things like shutdown -p not working. Pay particular attention to configuring /etc/rc.conf correctly. You will also need the kernel option options PCIC_RESUME_RESET # reset after resume in order for insert and remove to be recognized. These are just a few things that I had to sort out. Hope this helps. On another front, I have been running stable on my laptop for quite a while. Since I am usually connected to the net through a network card this is not a big problem, but my modem card is not supported. It is however in PAO. Is there an easy way of adding support for the card in Stable. I would state the make and model of the card but I don't have it handy.

X-Mailer: VM 6.75 under 20.4 "Emerald" XEmacs Lucid Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Where do I start looking for this: With 4.1-RELEASE, my fujitsu E6150 notebook correctly suspends and resumes... and with 4.1-CURRENT (sup'd yesterday) it doesn't --- it hangs on the resume. I've even up and down graded several times to verify the behaviour. (I'm not even sure where the suspend/resume code lives ... so I could use some pointers ... but I'm also looking for something that changed recently.) I have also verified that with 4.1-RELEASE (where suspend/resume work) that removing my CDROM (booting fresh with my cdrom removed --- I can replace it with an extra battery) will cause suspend/resume not to work. Please be clear about this: with the laptop in the off state, I remove the cdrom, and replace it with "nothing" or a battery and then boot... and while booted without the cdrom drive, suspend/resume hangs on resume. It hangs on resume even if I use the zzz command. When the laptop resumes, I see it reset ata0 and ata1 (normally). Ata1 doesn't probe when I boot without the cdrom installed (this seems common to desktops, even) ... so I'm wondering if some code is blindly resetting both ata channels and hanging on the non-existent one.

It is evidence of good design that the system will scale down to low end hardware and function acceptably. My 486 is responsible for ipfw, natd, ppp, smtp, pop, nfs, samba, ntp, dns, lpd, ssh and probably a few others I'm not remembering right now. My point was that I'd hate to see anyone with the talent to do kernel development suffer with such hardware. Although it is 4.0-STABLE, I don't build world on this box.

I think that this patch will work on all 82365's. Looking at the code and some old datasheets (but not an original 82365 one, which I can't find, feel free to mail me one) I think this will work. Even on bridges that don't support 3.3V. Well, it will "fail" there by not setting the voltage to 3.3V, but it will "Fail" by setting the voltage to 0 if I read the data sheets right. Since these older chips don't support 3.3V, this is the best that can be expected.

I don't see SILO overflows while the box is simply driving the serial port, but let some other host on my network make the NFS exported drives busy while the modem is working and the SILO overflows erupt. Nate, I don't know what to say to this except you only need to search -questions or usenet to find countless examples of the same problem with the same symptoms being reported. These people have no agenda other than fixing the problem. Perhaps the PIC/chipset implementation makes this less cut and dry and, in your case, you got lucky. Maybe it's the early version of FreeBSD you are running. Sun spots perhaps?

Huh? Jim King posted the patch that does the trick earlier in this thread. I know for fact this works. I've been applying something similar to sio.c since 3.1-RELEASE. It basically makes a one line change that lowers the 16550A threshold to 8 bytes. How is it difficult or impossible to accommodate this with an #ifdef based on a kernel option, i.e. option 16550_LOW_THRESHOLD... ?

This tells me that this is a fairly standard modem card. They seem to like to have config 0x2N map to what FreeBSD calles sioN (or COM(N+1) in the DOS world). This means that you need to take into account which COM ports are used in your laptop, and then pick the next higher number: config 0x23 "sio" ? would likely be the right line. This card is different than most cards in that it can also decode any address that you give it, which means that config 0x30 "sio" ? might give you a better chance of having it work. In general I always try to give the "auto" entry a chance, then look for an entry that has one window mappable anywhere, then go for the specific entry if all else fails.

Nevertheless the fix/hack was to uncomment chn_dmaupdate() from /sys/dev/sound/pcm/channel.c. Here is a snip from the original un-modded code: [...] at line 231 b->rp = chn_getptr(c); b->fp = (b->rp + b->bufsize / 4) % b->bufsize; b->rl = b->bufsize / 4; b->fl = b->bufsize - b->rl; b->underflow = 0; } else { /* chn_dmaupdate(c); */ } } With this line commented (as I and a number of other people reported in a thread on this list) attempting to play a sound file would cause the channel to lock up saying something like "pcm0: play interrupt timeout" and then only a reboot would unlock it. -- Regards, Devin.

I have a couple of boxes deployed using 3ware IDE controllers as well as a Mylex DAC960 and a MegaRAID 428. For RAID0, the 3ware cards seem to perform quite well (I am using them for USENET and proxy servers). But for the POP3, I need something with a little more performance than I seem to get with the 3ware, Mylex and MegaRAID cards. (The 3ware is *REALLY* slow in RAID1, dont know about RAID 10). Has anyone tried the new Adaptec 2100S cards ? I dont want to shell out $500 bucks if they are not that much better than the DAC960s. What about vinum ? Is anyone using it in a production machine ? Is it reliable and ready for prime time ? I want to do either RAID5 or 10 in order to get speed and reliability.

The newish lucent RG-1000 is under $400 with a silver card, around $320 without, and officially PC configurable. Personally I use a $100 486 laptop as a router, but will buy either an airport or an RG-1000 to get bridging and BSS (non-ad-hoc) which means powersave mode on the laptop clients which gives real battery life. You can put a gold card (and sell the internal silver) and put a range extender in an airport, if you're willing to lose the warrenty.

Their plain base station is $279, and is supposed to be compatible with anything that uses 802.11b, so hopefully it would work with the Lucent cards (about $190 each?). I haven't used their stuff or read any reviews on it, I just ran across one of their ads today.

I've run into a road block. According to the ipfstat man page: ... SYNOPSIS ipfstat [ -6aAfghIinosv ] [ -d ] ... -6 Display filter lists for IPv6, if available. ... However when attempted: # ipfstat -6 Usage: ipfstat [-aAfhIinosv] [-d ] I see that if ipfstat were compiled with USE_INET6, it might work. This leads to the question, has the ipfilter code been compiled without IPv6 support on purpose (i.e., it doesn't work under FreeBSD yet so enabling it would cause problems) or would it be safe to turn on? Does the ipf kernel support include IPv6 (assuming the kernel has it)?

To wit: 1) it is not true that you need a MAC to configure the Airport, there are at least two to three alternatives, including a Jave configurator and a Windows program, Freebase. I have used both. You can find out about it all at www.macwindows.com. 2) The Airport really is a great product, combining a 56K modem, 10baseT port, router, NAT, DHCP and wireless for $300. It works very well and is flexible enough to do just about any combination you can think of. 3) Lucent Wavelan cards (Silver) interoperate great with the Airport. To run them on a "desktop" (Windows or FreeBSD), you will want the Lucent PC card to ISA adapter (I didn't try the PCI versiom having heard more config problems with it). It works fine with FreeBSD 4.0. I also did not try FreeBSD on a laptop with Wavelan. The Airport is $300. The Wavelan Silvers are $160. The ISA adapter is $60. So it is pretty affordable... Also neat are the Farallon Homeline products, particularly the Ethernet to Homeline adapter. With them, you can run Ethernet compatible networking across the phone lines in your house. I have the Airport connected to a Homeline adapter and a DSL line feeding another Homeline unit several rooms away. In a big house, you can use this to extend the wireless range without running cables anywhere.

I'm typing this note while I'm at home (no matter where the xterm process is running, it's being displayed on a laptop at home); the laptop in question is connected via a Cisco/Aironet card, and the access point is an Apple Airport. Weaknesses so far are configuring the Airport (it was configured for me, by someone who has access to the requisite software) and the lack (from what I hear) of 129-bit encryption support. The Aironet cards were US$167 each from pcwonders.com.

This flag allows sooner recovery from lost interrupts. I read the code of sio.c but I cannot tell why this flag helps, in my opinion it's not related. Perhaps a coincidence.. But I agree that the trigger should be at least given as flag to the driver, or, if possible via the sysctl interface.

I'm asking this question because in our current setup consider the following situation: clients->[smb]->linux2.2.16(with local raid and nfs)->[nfs]->FreeBSD4.1-R Before the FreeBSD there was quantum-snap server which had limited nfs2 protocol, and didn't allow chown/chgrp and links, thus it had to be replaced. Now, many windows clients cannot open their files, they click on it but get all kinds of weird errors (I cannot post them since I'm not there at the moment, and microsoft error messages are hard to remember. It *looks* like a locking problem to me, but I didn't investigate it yet. Did anyone experience this phenomena? Meanwhile I added "-2" to flags to mountd, and waiting for people there to test it. Is there some known issues with FreeBSD nfs vs. Linux nfs? P.S. it's isn't suitable to install samba on the freebsd machine in our situation, though I can bet that it would have worked much better. --Roman Shterenzon, UNIX System Administrator and Consultant [ Xpert UNIX Systems Ltd., Herzlia, Israel.

All went fine but from 3 hours of compilation on a Pentium 300 with 256Megs (when doing 3.* it was not much than 1 hour). The machine works except some problems. First i wanted to use sysinstall to format a new disk. It ends out with no disks found. Thinking a new sysinstall was needed i tried to recompile it. But no luck! cc -Os -march=pentiumpro -pipe -Wall -I/usr/src/release/sysinstall/../../gnu/lib/libdialog -I/usr/src/release/sysinstall -I/usr/src/release/sysinstall/../../sys -c kget.c kget.c:40: machine/uc_device.h: No such file or directory kget.c: In function `kget': kget.c:83: sizeof applied to an incomplete type kget.c:85: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type kget.c:86: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type kget.c: .... Other problem, the USB ports don't work any more (they worked with 4.0 stable). I get uhub0: port 2 power on failed, IOERROR messages. Incidentally, i have installed 4.1 RELEASE on a new machine at home. It has an Abit mobo with Duron and Via chipset. Here usb don't work either. This problem has been reported for via chipsets, but this machine here is pure intel. Moreover smbus etc. does not seem to work, as reported by lmmon. lmmon IOCTL: Device not configured I have never seen this working. Of course lmmon -i works. Finally, i have a very long timeout at boot, probing the ata disks. This i have observed since 4.0. I had only an atapi cdrom on the primary channel, and had a long pause at boot. It disappeared when i added an ata disk on the primary and put the cdrom on the secondary. But now with 4.1 Stable, the pause is still here. Nevertheless things come out fine, and both disk and cdrom work OK. For reference, here is the complete dmesg. Copyright (c) 1992-2000 The FreeBSD Project.

You do need to rebuild sysinstall. To do so, go to /usr/src/release/sysinstall and "make all install". Builds fine on all of my systems, but you are using somewhat different compile options. I use: "cc -O -pipe -Wall". I can't see why the -march option should cause these errors, though. I would be more suspicious of -Os. R.

It tells you that you can try a "make world" but if it fails don't complain until you have tried the buildworld, build[install}kernel, installworld sequence. A lot changed between 4.0 and 4.1. For example, a kernel build using the config is not supported after a cvsup. It may work but there can be changes that the buildkernel mode will process. Your kernel config file can be different. You need to compare what you have against GENERIC. It has been 4 or 5 days since I did a cvsup and all of the builds and installs.

I don't think there's much point in filing a FreeBSD PR because no-one here is likely to dive in and fix the bug in gcc. Much better to take it up with the gcc developers directly.

I also tried "make buildworld" several times after the first build failed. Of course, I removed obj directory in a manner similar to what was suggested by some of you each time. I am using a very simple script that automates the build from freebsddiary.org Yes, it is the build that fails, not the install. If I remember correctly, the build does not even finish building all the stuff in the tools stage (but proceeds for a long time with no errors). I guess you'll have to wait until I am done with my work for the day and get back to the (non-networked) machine on which I have the build logs and post excerpts from them. My only guess at this point is that I managed to not have some C/C++ libraries installed... Well, FreeBSD 4.0 install from the CD set is quite buggy, given that there are 4 CDs and some of the packages/distributions on the first CD are dependent on packages on other CDs and fail to install from the /stand/sysinstall, not even prompting you for the other CD. So that could have happened. I am still hunting down various components across CDs and adding them with pkg_add. -j4 should only affect number of simultaneous processes. Since I have a dual-processor machine, I may try -j8. Thanks for assuring me that the branch is not broken. I was about to ditch FreeBSD with disgust thinking that "these losers even have their stable branch broken...". Just kidding! Nikita.

This is one of those odd times when I figured ... "I never have any trouble upgrading via cvsup ... I'll just do it now" (on a production machine) Well ... step one is to smack myself for being stupid, step two is to get this machine working correctly again, step 3 is to never EVER do anything this stupid again. If anyone is curious, or has any ideas what's wrong ... here are the symptoms: 1. I cvsupped to current 4.1-STABLE from 4.0-STABLE(June 3) 2. make buildworld 3. Attempted to compile a kernel ... lots-o-errors cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf;/usr/sbin/config MYKERNEL All manner of complaints of errors in the kernel config file 4. Tried to do cd /usr/src;make buildkernel error: no such target (Here's where frustration and lack of sleep bred superior stupidity) 5. make installworld (I have no idea what I was thinking at this point ...) Of course ... now I can't do a ps, or top or anything like that ... the machine is still responding and doing its job (as a web server) So I'm super lucky on that point. Anyway, I tried recreating new config file from GENERIC, but I'm looking at GENERIC and it's dated March 1??? What's that about.

No, no ... it complainded that buildkernel was not a valid target- not that MYKERNEL was not a valid target. I tried both what show here and what you suggested. (I abbreviated some things in this email for simplicity) One way or the other - something is seriously hosed.

You'll still get marginally better performance from an ATA 33 and an ATA 66 than you would from two ATA 33s.

I was trying to ftp from a client machine in to my FreeBSD box, it hangs
the FreeBSD box very badly.
Ctl-Alt-Del won't work, I can't type most of the keys on the keyboard
except for the Alt-Fx for switching
to the other login shell, but won't be able to type a character either.
Press reset button is the only way out.
The whole box is freeze after all.

Does anyone know where I can find a patch for fixing this problem?

I was trying to ftp from a client machine in to my FreeBSD box, it hangs
the FreeBSD box very badly.
Ctl-Alt-Del won't work, I can't type most of the keys on the keyboard
except for the Alt-Fx for switching
to the other login shell, but won't be able to type a character either.
Press reset button is the only way out.
The whole box is freeze after all.

Does anyone know where I can find a patch for fixing this problem?

Thanks
Sam.

There was a change added to the uipc_socket2.c in 4.1-stable that would hang the machine on ip activity. The easy way is to recvsup and build the system. There are too many changes to just cvsup and remake the kernel.

This is fine as long as you only wanna use one card, this is what they refer to as running in AD-HOC mode. Cost wise, there is very little difference between this and buying a apple airport base station (which I am typing this e-mail through right now from my laptop running FreeBSD 4.1). Since a card will run you 160-190 and a ISA pcmcia bridge will cost you 60-90 dollars, and a PCI pcmcia bridge is even more. The airport is only 299 dollars. > Just use a PCI/PCMCIA adapter with a wavelan card in your server > (supposed to work with FreeBSD) and a wavelan in the laptop. -- Greg Rumple grumple@zaphon.llamas.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Mon Sep 4 23:20:38 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from vbook.express.ru (vbook.express.ru [212.24.37.106]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2BE4737B422; Mon, 4 Sep 2000 23:20:32 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from vova@localhost) by vbook.express.ru (8.9.3/8.9.3) id JAA06839; Tue, 5 Sep 2000 09:37:30 +0400 (MSD) (envelope-from vova) From: "Vladimir B.

I spent a week lately trying out vinum with five ATA disks. The mobo had ATA-100 capability, so two drives did run at ATA-100, the other ones at ATA-66 (two Promise controllers). I pushed the RAID-5 quite hard with continous parallel buildworld, two-days running postmark and bonnie++, all at the same time. Had no problems, it seems really solid now. The disks were IBM DTLA type, 15G. -- Vallo Kallaste vallo@matti.ee To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Tue Sep 5 3: 2:15 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from neo.skynet.be (neo.skynet.be [195.238.2.53]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 88D2E37B424 for ; Tue, 5 Sep 2000 03:02:13 -0700 (PDT) Received: from [195.238.1.121] (brad.techos.skynet.be [195.238.1.121]) by neo.skynet.be (Postfix) with ESMTP id 01FE26E9B; Tue, 5 Sep 2000 12:01:57 +0200 (MET DST) Mime-Version: 1.0 X-Sender: blk@pop.skynet.be Message-Id: In-Reply-To: <14772.16607.870040.12214@kci.kciLink.com> References: <14772.16607.870040.12214@kci.kciLink.com> Date: Tue, 5 Sep 2000 11:45:40 +0200 To: Vivek Khera , From: Brad Knowles Subject: Re: affordable wireless Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed" Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG At 8:39 PM -0400 2000/9/4, Vivek Khera wrote: > The AirPort base station contians within it a "silver" wavelan PCMCIA > card. The regular wavelan cards you buy work well with it. I'm using this solution myself. In fact, I replaced the WaveLAN card in the AirPort with a WaveLAN Gold (so that I can do 128-bit encryption), and kept the WaveLAN Silver as backup. > I happen to have a Mac around to configure it, but I understand that > the Karlbridge software for Windoze will configure it as well (except > for some features such as the modem dialout). I downloaded the Karlbridge software and installed it on my wife's PC laptop, and tried to use it to configure the AirPort. I could not get this to work properly, so for the moment we're actually running without encryption (the Karlbridge software is supposedly able to allow you to change how the password is stored, because Apple uses a hash of the password on the AirPort and in the Mac client, but everyone else in the world uses the raw password itself). I do have some problems with the AirPort getting wonky and the Mac software at the same time. Usually rebooting the AirPort does the trick, but sometimes I have to reboot them both. I'm hoping that when I switch to using the AirPort as a wireless bridge to my Ethernet/ISDN router, I won't have these kinds of problems any more. Other than that, everything else works like a charm. -- These are my opinions -- not to be taken as official Skynet policy ====================================================================== Brad Knowles, || Belgacom Skynet SA/NV Systems Architect, Mail/News/FTP/Proxy Admin || Rue Colonel Bourg, 124 Phone/Fax: +32-2-706.13.11/12.49 || B-1140 Brussels http://www.skynet.be || Belgium "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania.

The >disks were IBM DTLA type, 15G. Thanks! Thats comforting to hear. I have been somewhat disappointed with entry and medium level hardware RAID products in terms of price/performance. Given the price penalty of SCSI today, the promise of vinum is looking more and more attractive. ---Mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mike Tancsa, tel +1 519 651 3400 Sentex Communications mike@sentex.net Cambridge, Ontario Canada www.sentex.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Tue Sep 5 6:15:39 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from smtpproxy1.mitre.org (mb-20-100.mitre.org [129.83.20.100]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 634C137B422 for ; Tue, 5 Sep 2000 06:15:36 -0700 (PDT) Received: from avsrv1.mitre.org (avsrv1.mitre.org [129.83.20.58]) by smtpproxy1.mitre.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id JAA10513 for ; Tue, 5 Sep 2000 09:15:30 -0400 (EDT) Received: from mailsrv2.mitre.org (mailsrv2.mitre.org [129.83.221.17]) by smtpsrv1.mitre.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id JAA07166 for ; Tue, 5 Sep 2000 09:12:41 -0400 (EDT) Received: from mitre.org ([128.29.145.140]) by mailsrv2.mitre.org (Netscape Messaging Server 4.1) with ESMTP id G0F0TO00.UD2; Tue, 5 Sep 2000 09:15:24 -0400 Message-ID: <39B4F1EE.D75B397D@mitre.org> Date: Tue, 05 Sep 2000 09:15:26 -0400 From: "Andresen,Jason R."

Just to let everyone know: I should be getting a TechWorks (Buffalo) AirStation in the next couple of days, and I'll be adding it to my FreeBSD Wireless documentation. A co-worker got one, and we played with it briefly; it doesn't look too bad. It's an actual base station (does not work in ad-hoc mode). I don't know if it supports NAT/DHCP though, although bridging appears to work fine. Other comments: * Configuration is done via a web browser (bleah). * Only supports 40-bit encryption. Don't know if it's like the AirPort when it comes to the 128-bit encryption upgrade, though. * Keys can be entered as hex (yes!). * The $279 model doesn't have a modem. With a modem, it's $299 (the same as the AirPort). * It works fine with my Lucent Orinoco (WaveLan) gold card (we didn't try enabling encryption, though). -- Darryl Okahata darrylo@soco.agilent.com DISCLAIMER: this message is the author's personal opinion and does not constitute the support, opinion, or policy of Agilent Technologies, or of the little green men that have been following him all day.

I'm on the verge of being in deep sh*t!) Well, I just cvsup'ed 1 hour ago and built world. No problems. That segfault you got when building perl looks really odd. Other people have said that segfaults during buildworld are generally hardware problems. Most likely memory. Any chance of you swapping out the memory in the machine?

OpenSSH is good, and I certainly use it (and other ssh products) where possible. However, it is not a panacea, it cannot be used everywhere, and if you can enable additional encryption at the link level, then you should certainly do that. -- These are my opinions -- not to be taken as official Skynet policy ====================================================================== Brad Knowles, || Belgacom Skynet SA/NV Systems Architect, Mail/News/FTP/Proxy Admin || Rue Colonel Bourg, 124 Phone/Fax: +32-2-706.13.11/12.49 || B-1140 Brussels http://www.skynet.be || Belgium "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania.

I'd be surprised ... considering I did a successful `make world' about a month ago with no problems, and I've done many compilations (Apache, MySQL, php, ssh) on this machine with no problems prior to this.

I think the mistake is that I accidentally got a 3.X-STABLE tree over top the 4.X tree and the version of perl from 3.X (whatever version that is) isn't up to doing some of the chores that are required for a 4.X make world. My plan of attack at this point is: make -k buildworld make installworld make buildworld If at that point I have no errors, I'm home free to rebuild a current kernel and make installworld again. If I'm still having trouble. I'm going to try cvsdowning to 4.0-STABLE (which is what the machine was before this all started) and see if I can get it working. If that doesn't work and I can still get ssh access to the machine, I'll get really desperate and try getting a 3.5.1 machine on here. If that doesn't work, I'm driving 3.5 hours to do a clean installation (please no) If anyone has any better attack plans, I'm interested to hear them.

When doing a buildworld with anything else cpu-intensive running, it would do all sorts of flaky things, including segfaults. If the only thing running was buildworld, it would succeed. If I add in a cpu-intensive program, like the distributed.net client program, it would consistently fail at random points. I just put in a new fan and am testing out a buildworld with other things running as well.

My 128 bit Lucent card says "128-bit RC-4 encryption". Last I heard, RC-4 was not considered a "safe" algorithm. Also, in any multi-user environment, the secret must be too public. (I believe that when I know something, it's secure. When I tell someone, it's secret. When someone else is told, it's public.) Using an encrypted link is fine, but I worry that people will believe far too much in its security. (Especially when they see "128-bit".) If I'm wrong and it is 3DES, never mind! But still use ssh whenever possible. R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.

I don't think it matters which one you use as long as you stick with one. If you are looking for a fix from cvs-all, capture the changes to a log file and look for it. Switch sites and you could be using a site that the cron job hasn't fired up and updated its source yet. Someone asked at one point in the past (it would be in the archives about the time 4.1 was at rc1) and IIRC the report was something like they all run once an hour. They didn't comment on what time during the hour were the cron jobs running. The last time I checked my /ncvs was around 1+GB and that is a lot of code to check up on. If there were a lot of mirrors around the world, you could even schedule update times to even out usage. You wouldn't want 40 or 50 sites checking cvs at the same time. I was thinking of doing my own release and set my server up to have a mirror. It hasn't been updated for awhile and du of ncvs shows 788630 ncvs/src 1014951 ncvs Kent > > -- > , The power .

I believe this is to facilitate USB keyboards. From the atkbd man page: bit 0 (FAIL_IF_NO_KBD) By default the atkbd driver will install even if a keyboard is not actually connected to the system. This option prevents the driver from being installed in this situation. If the atkbd driver loads it will become the default keyboard even if a USB keyboard is present. If your keyboard controller is busted then you can try removing the flag.

I just cvsup'd two nights ago and am experiencing weirdness in regards to cc1plus. I'm not sure if it is related to a recent change in cc1plus, or the phase of the moon, or my having eaten chili for dinner last night, but if anybody can help me with this, I'd appreciate it. The problem that I'm having has only reared its ugly in head while I'm trying to compile kdelibs-20000829A via ports. I guess the sheer size of this monster is what could be triggering the symptoms, but I digress. I'm running FreeBSD 4.1-STABLE and as I said above, I just cvsup'd two nights ago (Sep 3 20:54 EST). I am using a Compaq Armada 7800 laptop with a Pentium II/Pentium II Xeon/Celeron (300.01-M Hz 686-class CPU), 64 megs of RAM, and 128 megs of swap space. (gideon@judea:~) /usr/libexec/cc1plus -version (03:46P/538/ttyp9) GNU C++ version 2.95.2 19991024 (release) (i386-unknown-freebsd) compiled by GNU C version 2.95.2 19991024 (release). options passed: options enabled: -fpeephole -ffunction-cse -fkeep-static-consts -freg-struct-return -fexceptions -fsjlj-exceptions -fcommon -fgnu-linker -fargument-alias -fident -m80387 -mhard-float -mno-soft-float -mieee-fp -mfp-ret-in-387 -mno-fancy-math-387 -mschedule-prologue -mcpu=i386 -march=pentium What happens is that cc1plus goes merrily along, trying to compile its way through kdelibs-20000829A and does so with nary a complaint until it hits here: Making all in mcopidl gmake[3]: Entering directory `/usr/ports/x11/kdelibs2/work/kdelibs-20000829A/arts/mcopidl' c++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I../../dcop -I../../kdecore -I../../kdeui -I/usr/X11R6/include/qt2 -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/local/include -I./../mcop -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include -pipe -O -march=pentiumpro -mpentiumpro -fmemoize-lookups -fsave-memoized -frtti -c mcopidl.cc At this point, top shows: PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND 59072 root 47 0 38632K 37788K RUN 0:26 65.61% 56.30% cc1plus After about a half a minute of compiling, it appears that cc1plus goes into a tailspin and starts steadily chewing up memory. It doubles its SIZE and the RES memory shown below will continue growing until it eats up all of my swap space and the box grinds to a halt until I kill it off. I also get a gazillion of the dreaded "/kernel: swap_pager: out of swap space" and "/kernel: swap_pager_getswapspace: failed" messages. PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND 59072 root -22 0 86088K 14624K swread 0:30 15.82% 15.43% cc1plus Now, I tried to solve the problem by lowering the memory parameters in /etc/login.conf for default and then re-running 'cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf', as shown below.... default:\ :cputime=unlimited:\ :datasize=unlimited:\ :stacksize=unlimited:\ :memorylocked=40M:\ :memoryuse=40M:\ :memoryuse-cur=40M:\ :filesize=unlimited:\ :coredumpsize=unlimited:\ :openfiles=unlimited:\ :maxproc=unlimited:\ :sbsize=unlimited:\ :priority=0:\ :ignoretime@:\ :umask=022: Apparently, this had no effect, as when I logged out and back in again and tried the whole thing again, I still get a mutating cc1plus that kills my box. So I guess my questions are: 1) Has anybody ever seen this type of anti-social behavior before? 2) What am I doing wrong in my /etc/login.conf such that this anti-social behavior is not stopped before it's allowed to use up all of my swap space and generally do no-so-nice things to my machine? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated--not so much because I want to run kde2, but I'd really like to prevent this sort of thing from happening--no matter what tries to cause it. Thanks very much.... -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Jason Kasper (vanRijn) Systems Engineer bash$ :(){ :|:&};: VORFA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Tue Sep 5 13:27:56 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from scientia.demon.co.uk (scientia.demon.co.uk [212.228.14.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id ABC5237B423 for ; Tue, 5 Sep 2000 13:27:44 -0700 (PDT) Received: from strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk ([192.168.91.36] ident=root) by scientia.demon.co.uk with esmtp (Exim 3.16 #1) id 13WMmX-000GPZ-00; Tue, 05 Sep 2000 18:45:13 +0100 Received: (from ben@localhost) by strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk (8.9.3/8.9.3) id SAA01536; Tue, 5 Sep 2000 18:45:12 +0100 (BST) (envelope-from ben) Date: Tue, 5 Sep 2000 18:45:12 +0100 From: Ben Smithurst To: Krzysztof Parzyszek Cc: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Cvsup mirrors Message-ID: <20000905184512.F72445@strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk> References: <20000905112009.B7168@buchanan-181-249.stures.iastate> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2i In-Reply-To: <20000905112009.B7168@buchanan-181-249.stures.iastate> Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Krzysztof Parzyszek wrote: > I have recently noticed that cvsup*.freebsd.org can happen to have > different contents.

Yes. Does that mean that all non 4.1-STABLE machines are left in the cold when it comes to log into a 4.1-STABLE system from them ?!? Is updating /usr/share/misc/termcap to the version in the -stable tree sufficient to make things work between 3.x and -stable machines ?

It is impossible to fix termcap bugs AND stays compatible in the same time, since compatible variant IS buggy.

I compiled kdelibs2 a few times and never noticed that. I have 256MBs of swap partitions (128MB each). Compilation has been slow at times and swap has been accessed, but I was running other large processes and the port build completed every time without eating all the memory.

Alternative workaround which comes to mind first is renaming termcap entry, but among other problems it cause the same problem reversed and worse, i.e. with loging from new releases to old ones for which renamed entry simple not exist. -- Andrey A.

Rawio is largely a seek-time tester, and not particularly representative of real-world I/O loads either. To get a feel for how a controller interacts with the buffer cache, you need to present the load via the filesystem. I typically use a large number of bonnie processes (20 or so) working with large datasets (1-10GB) and then ignore their output and instead monitor the controller's throughput using devstat. Other filesystem load generators are probably worth considering as well, since bonnie's I/O patterns are not very imaginiative. -- ... every activity meets with opposition, everyone who acts has his rivals and unfortunately opponents also. But not because people want to be opponents, rather because the tasks and relationships force people to take different points of view.

The > disks were IBM DTLA type, 15G. FWIW, the German magazine recently published a comparison of 331 disk drives (issue 16/00). The top performing IDE drive was the IBM DTLA 307030 (30 GB), with a weighted result of 20.7 MB/s. Only one SCSI drive exceeded this value. I don't see a 15 GB DTLA drive in the list, the smallest is 19 GB, but it only did 13.9 MB/s. Note that the benchmark is probably flawed: the tests found an average positioning time of 11.0 ms for the DTLA 307030, compared to as low as 7.2 ms for SCSI drives (IBM DDYS). If these times seem slow to you, c't measures positioning time differently from the manufacturers: they measure the average over the whole disk, while manufacturers measure the average over the first 504 MB (!).

For the past month, I've not been able to get partitions laid on them that FreeBSD is willing to notice correctly (w/ disklabel & fdisk). I've tried a lot of different things. Originally I tried writing the partition information w/ sysinstall - that didn't work, then I tried fdisk w/ -u (& -i -u) & that didn't work. Each time that I wrote the values out - the light would flicker on the disk, but the partition table wasn't changed (presumably some other sector was changed). I've upgraded my machine a couple of times (& I'm going to be doing it once more now) & replaced /dev/MAKEDEV & the affiliated disks (da1 & da2) - yet I still can't get this to work... Here's the output from fdisk on the drives (I had successfully partitioned them under solaris86 which is why the solaris partitions are there). fdisk: invalid fdisk partition table found ******* Working on device /dev/da2 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=2181 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=2181 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 512 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 1 is: sysid 130,(Linux swap or Solaris x86) start 5136, size 5125728 (2502 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 0/ sector 34/ head 81; end: cyl 311/ sector 18/ head 97 The data for partition 2 is: sysid 6,(Primary 'big' DOS (> 32MB)) start 5128816, size 30414368 (14850 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 311/ sector 19/ head 97; end: cyl 164/ sector 18/ head 166 The data for partition 3 is: The data for partition 4 is: sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 1, size 35037764 (17108 Meg), flag 80 (active) beg: cyl 0/ sector 2/ head 0; note - I didn't put the 4th partition on - it continues to tell me that that parition exists - even though solaris (when I ran the installer) knew of only the first 2. Also - when I step through the sysinstall utility & try to make slices after I lay the partitions, it tells me that the devices aren't configured.

Use the java based configurator on this web site to configure it with. I have used this tool under FreeBSD just fine. http://edge.mcs.drexel.edu/GICL/people/sevy/airport/ I think I am using the linux-jdk for it, but it works none the less, and allows you to configure your base station from any OS.

The AUTO_EOI_* options can squeeze a bit more performance out of system. If your motherboard doesn't support EOI, your system will rapidly (< 5 minutes) lock up though. Stripping unnecessary drivers can help if you are short on RAM, but this can only save a few hundred K at most.

It was changed from a link to a real file, and it is in UPDATING. Soft updates went to the standard 2 clause BSD license, and thus the change.

However, for now, I have been using a number of bonnie processes simultaneously. The box I am building is going to be just a pop3 server. So at any given time, a number of popper processes running scanning through a users mailbox to see how many messages they have seems to be well enough approximated by a number of disk intensive processes like bonnie at once. As for testing, so far so good. Actually, I was quite taken aback by some of the results. It really does seem a lot faster, certainly from the limited testing I have done. In one, test where I blast email at the box as fast as I can from two outside hosts, it took half the time deliver mail to 13,000 user mail boxes as compared to the time it took on the 428 MegaRAID controller in a 3 disk striped config with the same physical drives involved. The other neat thing I have found so far, was that on a 256MB machine, comparing the amr, mlx, da, ad to the vinum drive, the vinum tests gave me the best even distribution of multiple processes blasting on the disk. Running 15 bonnie -s 100 at once, all the drivers except vinum tended to favor the first and second process in terms of performance. vinum gave very uniform results across all the processes which I guess if I saw 20 popper processes start up, all accessing big mail boxes, I would want each to get equal disk access! The only problem I have run into so far is creating a 3 disk RAID5 array. Is this not possible ? It *seems* to take the command OK (raid5 -v /dev/da0e /dev/da1e /dev/da2e), but newfs gives newmail# newfs -v /dev/vinum/vinum0 newfs: /dev/vinum/vinum0: Input/output error on a STABLE box from 2 days ago.

I have installed FreeBSD, Linux and Win98 on it, and have seen a problem with fdisk. Note that it is FreeBSD 4.1-Release, so a recent fdisk. Linux is on first slice, 2 Gigs. FreeBSD is on second slice 2.5 Gigs. I wanted to allocate the rest to Win98. Problem Win98 refused to install on the partition fdisked and newfs_msdos. So i used Dos fdisk to delete the third partition and recreate it, then Dos format /s c: to format it. Then Win98 install went out fine (i had to disable ATA 66 in the BIOS before running Dos programs otherwise nothing worked. I then installed drivers coming with the Abit mobo, and reenabled ATA 66). Rebooting to FreeBSD i discovered that the Dos slice began at cylinder 1024 and ended at last cylinder. There was a 2 Gig hole from the end of FreeBSD slice to the beginning of Dos slice. Why Dos fdisk did that, i don't know. It is not a very verbose program! But more important, while sector numbers were fine, the cylinder indications were completely bogus. They say the slice is beginning cylinder 1023 and ending cylinder 1023. I can see above similar bogus cylinder informations. I have tried to use fdisk -u to restore correct numbers, but to no avail. At best one gets starting cylinder 0, ending cylinder = number of cylinders remaining. So i changed nothing. Since apparently only sector numbers are relevant, this caused no problem. However the problem came when i installed Linux, namely Mandrake 7.1. I have been much impressed by the very nice installer. The Ultra 66 mode was properly recognized and install went out fine and quick. I asked to put lilo on the Linux partition and rebooted to find that F2 did not fire up Linux. Using the Mandrake cdrom in rescue mode and doing mount /dev/hda2 /mnt lilo -r /mnt i discovered the problem. There was a Windows label in lilo.conf and since cylinder numbers were botched, lilo aborted. Erasing it and rerunning lilo installed the boot sector on /dev/hda2 and allowed linux access. Moral, it would be fine to fix the fdisk problems in FreeBSD. Moreover this program is horrendous to use, and the documentation is close to 0. As far as disklabel is concerned, it is of the same vein. One has to compute a lot of entries from what fdisk reports, write an entry in /etc/disktab and run disklabel -r -w before having something reasonable. The label auto does not work, at least on my ata drive. This could be easily automated. Manually it took me two hours to figure out, in order to reuse an old disk. -- Michel TALON To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Wed Sep 6 2:37: 1 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from bumper.jellybaby.net (bumper.jellybaby.net [194.159.247.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BE7A837B422 for ; Wed, 6 Sep 2000 02:36:56 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from simond@localhost) by bumper.jellybaby.net (8.9.2/8.9.2) id KAA28853; Wed, 6 Sep 2000 10:36:49 +0100 (BST) (envelope-from simond) Date: Wed, 6 Sep 2000 10:36:49 +0100 From: simond@irrelevant.org To: Doug White Cc: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Problems with installing 4.1-RELEASE Message-ID: <20000906103649.C27237@irrelevant.org> References: <20000902204907.A5182@irrelevant.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0.1i In-Reply-To: ; from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu on Tue, Sep 05, 2000 at 11:23:05AM -0700 Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tue, Sep 05, 2000 at 11:23:05AM -0700, Doug White wrote: > On Sat, 2 Sep 2000 simond@irrelevant.org wrote: > > > Hiya, is there any reason why "flags 0x1" got added to the atkbd0 line > > somewhere between 4.0 and 4.1?

Yeah, that's what I ended up doing, by installing 4.0 and going to 4.1S without the flag, it works, but it doesn't seem ideal to cause the installation CD to hang on some keyboard controllers (the Via Apollo Pro on the Asus A7V in my case). -- Simon Dick simond@irrelevant.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Wed Sep 6 3: 0:10 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from mx7.port.ru (mx7.port.ru [194.67.23.44]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 492F537B423 for ; Wed, 6 Sep 2000 03:00:07 -0700 (PDT) Received: from [212.96.98.35] (helo=[212.96.98.35]) by mx7.port.ru with esmtp (Exim 3.14 #3) id 13Wbzw-0000WR-00; Wed, 06 Sep 2000 14:00:05 +0400 Date: Wed, 6 Sep 2000 14:00:28 +0400 (MSD) From: Jaroshenko Serge X-Sender: jaroshenko@freebsd.merlin.ru To: Alex Markov Cc: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Cannot make buildworld on i815 mobo... :-( In-Reply-To: <001501c017e7$73bb1aa0$1945a4d4@asdg.ru> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On my motherboard, Gigabyte 6OMM7E chip i815E, work just fine!

Since apparently only sector numbers are relevant, this caused no > problem. No. This is the defined way for indicating that a slice starts and ends beyond cylinder 1024. The MBR format does not have enough bits to indicate cylinders above 1024. Period. Thus, it uses the special values you saw as magic values to indicate that only the starting block and length are correct. Which you would have observed if you had read the entire screen. For example: sysid 12,(DOS or Windows 95 with 32 bit FAT, LBA) start 63, size 2096577 (1023 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 0/ sector 1/ head 1; end: cyl 1023/ sector 63/ head 15 The data for partition 2 is: sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 2096640, size 17914176 (8747 Meg), flag 80 (active) beg: cyl 1023/ sector 63/ head 255; end: cyl 1023/ sector 63/ head 15 Note that the start and size entries are perfectly valid. > However the problem came when i installed Linux, namely Mandrake 7.1.

For simulating the performance of mail-related disk subsystems, so far I have been pretty happy with what I've been doing with postmark. See my postmark benchmarking page at . And now that the SmartRAID V/VI drivers are available for FreeBSD 4.2, I will be repeating my previous vinum/SmartRAID/rawio benchmarks (see ) to see how things have changed. On our POP3 mail systems, we're seeing average message sizes around 70KB, so I will be doing further bonnie++ 1.00b (see ) tests averaging about that, of course using multiple processes in parallel, and making sure that I move at least multiple GB of data per test to try and make sure that we eliminate as much buffer cache effect as we can. I'm also going to be testing Sun Solaris UFS against UFS Logging (both DiskSuite trans meta devices as well as using the "logging" keyword in the mount options) against Veritas VxVM and VxFS, and in single disk, mirrored pairs, striped pairs, mirrored+striped pairs (four disks), and four pure striped disks. > The only problem I have run into so far is creating a 3 disk RAID5 > array. Is this not possible ? While possible (three disks is the minimum number required to make a RAID-5 volume), it wastes 1/3 your disk space, it is very costly in terms of I/O, and generally is not that great of an idea. > Am I better off in the end going with 4 drives in a RAID 10 config instead ? If that is possible, in my experience you will find that it will perform much, much better, and it should be more reliable. Myself, I'd be inclined to throw in a fifth disk as a hot spare, and run the remaining four in RAID 0+1 mode (of course, if at all possible you want to stripe the mirrors and not mirror the stripes, since if you do the former and you lose a disk, then only that submirror is degraded and the stripe is fine, while if you do the latter, then the entire stripe is degraded which then causes the mirror to be degraded too). -- These are my opinions -- not to be taken as official Skynet policy ====================================================================== Brad Knowles, || Belgacom Skynet SA/NV Systems Architect, Mail/News/FTP/Proxy Admin || Rue Colonel Bourg, 124 Phone/Fax: +32-2-706.13.11/12.49 || B-1140 Brussels http://www.skynet.be || Belgium "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania.

NO_TCSH is for people who don't want to build and install new versions of csh. It doesn't mean that you can run the system without it, and definitely doesn't mean that you can remove it and expect things to build. NOPERL is another example. Try build your kernel without /usr/bin/perl.

The only scripts I've noted being rewritten recently are killall and which, both with good reason.

This includes stock GENERIC kernel builds. I have synced up the OS with very recent (within 24 hours) builworld's and installworld's apparently without problems. However, the only way to boot is with /kernel.GENERIC, since all of my kernel compiles report the above profiling errors. I searched the archives for errors of this type but did not find anything relevant. To the best of my knowledge, this behavior began in mid-August, and I have wrestled with it ever since (close to 10 reinstalls to try different ideas). My questions: Could this be hardware related? No changes recently but still who knows?... If I build a new GENERIC kernel after a fresh install of 4.1-R, the kernel works. Only after syncing up /usr/src with cvsup to -stable do I incur the wrath of profiling errors. Should I not sync up anymore?

It's an unofficial document, which was largely posted to freebsd-mobile. You can get a copy from: ftp://ftp.sonic.net/pub/users/darrylo/freebsd/wavelan Although it's a "work-in-progress", it's currently suffering from bit-rot, having not been updated in a month or two.

So how can I update my -STABLE from remote location ? You shouldn't, unless you have a serial console, and even then it's quite dangerous.

Odd, sounds like a bug in either the mobo or the driver. Try booting with -v and see if an error shows up during the atkbdc probe.

My team does this with remote Sun systems attached to a serial console via a FreeBSD system running conserver, as it saves a helijet trip to the mainland. We have plans to upgrade the FreeBSD console server remotely. Currently we've only upgraded our less critical FreeBSD systems remotely, a trip by elevator away. With careful planning it can be done. > > > I'm thinking abount alternate disk partitions for /usr, /var and /, so I > > would be able to update into alternate location, and switch rootdev to > > updated location.

I've done this with Solaris, Tru64-UNIX, and FreeBSD. It's an idea I brought over from the MVS (IBM Mainframe) world, where at our shop we call it the FOOBAR Roll. The steps we take (I'll miss some minor steps for brevity) are, 1. Copy the system to a disk mounted as /foobar. 2. Modify /foobar/etc/fstab to reflect new device names for /, /usr, etc. Also modify boot parameters. 3. chroot /foobar /bin/sh 4. cd /usr/src 5. make buildworld, buildkernel, installkernel, boot, installworld. So far so good. There is no guarantee that this will work as FreeBSD evolves, but it works for now and it saves a 30 minute helicopter trip to Vancouver.

Lyris is failing to issue a wait(2) call to obtain the exit status of children that have terminated. The kernel will keep a a process table entry for the terminated child until the exit status has been fetched by its parent. My guess the reason Linux doesn't have any zombies is that the Linux init(8) is getting involved to fetch the status and clean up after the application. This is not standard UNIX. What FreeBSD is doing, e.g. nothing as it's an application issue, is the correct thing to do. IIRC, there are some differences between SYSV and BSD in this regard, though I cannot remember the details and I don't have Stevens' book here to reference.

This is true, however the Linux activator should be doing the right thing and emulating linux's perhaps broken behavior. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Wed Sep 6 11:23:55 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from hotmail.com (f123.law9.hotmail.com [64.4.9.123]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 253AE37B422 for ; Wed, 6 Sep 2000 11:23:53 -0700 (PDT) Received: from mail pickup service by hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC; Wed, 6 Sep 2000 11:23:53 -0700 Received: from 168.88.19.2 by lw9fd.law9.hotmail.msn.com with HTTP; Wed, 06 Sep 2000 18:23:53 GMT X-Originating-IP: [168.88.19.2] From: "Alan Bindemann" To: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu Cc: mux@qualys.com, stable@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Which release of 4.1 supports i810 with XFree86 4.0.1?

Data point: I've also seen this, with a 4-STABLE source tree cvsuped on 23rd August. The affected machine is a AMD K6-2/333 based desktop system. I'd done a binary upgrade from 3.4-RELEASE to 4.1-RELEASE and then cvsupped and compiled STABLE. When things then went horribly wrong I assumed that I'd messed something up during the upgrade, blew everything away, and went for a fresh install of 4.1-RELEASE. I'm running this okay, with a GENERIC kernel, and haven't had a chance to try building a custom kernel or sync up to STABLE again yet. I run 4-STABLE built from the *same* 23rd August source tree on a Sony Vaio 505SN (with a 400MHz Mobile Pentium II) and I haven't seen a problem there. Could the problem be something perculier to the K6? What sort of hardware are you running, Matt? Regards, Neil Hoggarth.

I had this problem of zombies on the linux box with an earlier beta of lyris 4.0, but the production release of lyris was not exhibiting this behavior. I do believe they are properly reaping processes... but I have to run ktrace on it to see, I suppose.

Is it still necessary to wait() on threads? I did a ktrace on lyris, but see no evidence of any calls to fork(2) or wait(2). What would I look for to see evidence that it is indeed using threads as I've been led to believe? The lyris 4.0 betas exhibited the zombie problem on linux itself, as well, but the 4.0 release does not.

For the past month, I've not been able to get partitions laid on them that FreeBSD is willing to notice correctly (w/ disklabel & fdisk). I've tried a lot of different things. Originally I tried writing the partition information w/ sysinstall - that didn't work, then I tried fdisk w/ -u (& -i -u) & that didn't work. Each time that I wrote the values out - the light would flicker on the disk, but the partition table wasn't changed (presumably some other sector was changed). I've upgraded my machine a couple of times (& I'm going to be doing it once more now) & replaced /dev/MAKEDEV & the affiliated disks (da1 & da2) - yet I still can't get this to work... Here's the output from fdisk on the drives (I had successfully partitioned them under solaris86 which is why the solaris partitions are there). fdisk: invalid fdisk partition table found ******* Working on device /dev/da2 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=2181 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=2181 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 512 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 1 is: sysid 130,(Linux swap or Solaris x86) start 5136, size 5125728 (2502 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 0/ sector 34/ head 81; end: cyl 311/ sector 18/ head 97 The data for partition 2 is: sysid 6,(Primary 'big' DOS (> 32MB)) start 5128816, size 30414368 (14850 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 311/ sector 19/ head 97; end: cyl 164/ sector 18/ head 166 The data for partition 3 is: The data for partition 4 is: sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 1, size 35037764 (17108 Meg), flag 80 (active) beg: cyl 0/ sector 2/ head 0; note - I didn't put the 4th partition on - it continues to tell me that that parition exists - even though solaris (when I ran the installer) knew of only the first 2.

It seems like my devices are hosed, but they've been rebuilt. when I try running disklabel on one of these disks disklabel: ioctl DIOCGDINFO: Invalid argument & device not configured when I try it on the slices.

Vidrine" To: current@freebsd.org Subject: HEADS UP: nsswitch meets current HEADS UP: nsswitch meets current Hello, I have just commited nsswitch support to FreeBSD-current. The code is based on NetBSD 1.4.2's nsswitch and I attempted to keep the implementations as close as possible. By creating an /etc/nsswitch.conf file, you can configure FreeBSD so that various databases such as passwd and group can be looked up using flat files, NIS, or Hesiod. To summarize, = Hesiod has been added to libc (see hesiod(3)). = A library routine for parsing nsswitch.conf and invoking callback functions as specified has been added to libc (see nsdispatch(3)). = The following C library functions have been modified to use nsdispatch: . getgrent, getgrnam, getgrgid . getpwent, getpwnam, getpwuid . getusershell . getaddrinfo . gethostbyname, gethostbyname2, gethostbyaddr . getnetbyname, getnetbyaddr . getipnodebyname, getipnodebyaddr, getnodebyname, getnodebyaddr As a side effect, by Hajimu UMEMOTO 's suggestion (thanks!), the default for the resolver is now files, then dns. This is different than the traditional default of dns, then files. HOWEVER, note that since November 1998 we have installed a default host.conf that causes lookup to be files, then dns anyway. = host.conf has been removed from src/etc. rc.network has been modified to warn that host.conf is no longer used at boot time. In addition, if there is a host.conf but no nsswitch.conf, the latter is created at boot time from the former. See also hesiod.conf(5) and nsswitch.conf(5). Thanks to Luke Mewburn for writing this freely distributable name-service switch implementation for the NetBSD Project. Thanks to those who sent in reports/suggestions/patches! Note that patches adding this support to 4.1-RELEASE and 4.1-STABLE are available at http://www.nectar.com/freebsd/nsswitch, as well as the patches that have been committed to -CURRENT. -- Jacques Vidrine / n@nectar.com / jvidrine@verio.net / nectar@FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message ----- End forwarded message ----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Wed Sep 6 13:30:56 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from cube.gelatinous.com (cube.gelatinous.com [207.82.194.150]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id D093537B423 for ; Wed, 6 Sep 2000 13:30:54 -0700 (PDT) Received: (qmail 26948 invoked by uid 1005); 6 Sep 2000 20:30:54 -0000 Date: 6 Sep 2000 20:30:54 -0000 Message-ID: <20000906203054.26947.qmail@cube.gelatinous.com> From: danh@gelatinous.com To: stable@freebsd.org Subject: VPN?

On SYSV (and Linux) doing "signal(SIGCHLD, SIG_IGN)" is sufficient to get rid of zombies. On BSD, you have to use sigaction() with the SA_NOCLDWAIT flag to get the same result. (Two minutes later) Yes, the following Q&D program does not leave a zombie child on linux. But when the linux-compiled binary is run under the linuxulator, it does leave a zombie. I.e. linuxulator bug. #include int main() { int pid; signal(SIGCHLD, SIG_IGN); if ((pid = (int)fork()) == 0) { exit(0); } printf("Child is %d, go look for it!\n", pid); sleep(30); } The same source compiled under FreeBSD also leaves a zombie, but that is an entirely different matter (it is supposed to). $.02, /Mikko -- Mikko Työläjärvi_______________________________________mikko@rsasecurity.com RSA Security To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Wed Sep 6 13:44:37 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from peak.mountin.net (peak.mountin.net [207.227.119.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 16BB637B422 for ; Wed, 6 Sep 2000 13:44:33 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from daemon@localhost) by peak.mountin.net (8.9.1/8.9.1) id PAA25785; Wed, 6 Sep 2000 15:44:25 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from jeff-ml@mountin.net) Received: from dial-78.max1.wa.cyberlynk.net(207.227.118.78) by peak.mountin.net via smap (V1.3) id sma025781; Wed Sep 6 15:44:04 2000 Message-Id: <4.3.2.20000906150106.00b77ee0@207.227.119.2> X-Sender: jeff-ml@207.227.119.2 X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 4.3 Date: Wed, 06 Sep 2000 15:41:38 -0500 To: Neil Blakey-Milner From: "Jeffrey J.

True, but there isn't a NO_SH option either and we all should know that it is required on many a system. At least one shell *is* needed. >"POLA" entails having /bin/csh that is csh-compatible.

I recall the csh/tcsh debate, but with NO_TCSH csh and the hardlink to tcsh neither are updated. My logic says that if they are not updated, then why keep them around. >NOPERL is another example. Try build your kernel without /usr/bin/perl. I disagree, as this is a poor example. This option, and others, are used more by those that wish to have an up-to-date version. Further, I could argue then it should be part of the build tools, if it is required. And yes, I do know that perl is needed somewhere on the system or many things will go BOOM. My question stems more from having a (eventually) truly modular system, which is why I question having a csh script. For those that don't use csh other than one time upon install, it is just another file not being used. Let's not get into another "which shell" debate, otherwise I'll have to request that ksh be in the base system. With a NO_KSH option for those that don't wish it. I would not ask that all scripts then use ksh. ;) It boils down to if it required, then why bother having NO_? option for it. Other options are somewhat dubious, as they are needed for various 3rd party software, but at least the system can be build without them.

The existence of NO_TCSH is mostly for the same reason as the existence of perl - "We have our own copy, don't overwrite it." That's why NO_SENDMAIL existed too. You can't have a "functional" system without /usr/sbin/sendmail of _some_ variety, but you could replace sendmail with exim, postfix, or qmail, or a later version of sendmail, and you don't want that clobbered. It's almost exactly the same example. There is a 44bsd-csh port for people who want old csh, and those people don't want tcsh clobbering it. > My question stems more from having a (eventually) truly modular system, > which is why I question having a csh script.

I would not ask that all scripts then use ksh. ;) I can see where you're coming from, but you aren't allowed to complain if you remove something that is there and something doesn't work. If I removed perl (because I hate it with a passion and think python rocks the world (this is an example)), and my kernel compile or ports builds break, I couldn't complain either. > It boils down to if it required, then why bother having NO_? option for > it.

I'm not against the rewrite in 'sh' if it is a function-for-function replacement. I do however think you're taking leaps in your argument for not having /bin/csh at all. I can think of a number of scripts from ports that will break.

FreeBSD 4.1 or later contains full ipsec code, including the KAME IKE daemon (racoon, in ports). FreeBSD 4.0 also contained ipsec but racoon didnt work with it, meaning you had to manually key security associations and in practise it was somewhat difficult to interoperate with some other ipsec platforms. > I have downloaded the KAME RELEASE version source > but I notice it hasn't been updated since May of > last year. The snapshots are a more appropriate thing to use, but I dont think you need them. There aren't very many changes to ipsec made there, except for racoon which is also updated in the ports collection.

Hmm. I wonder if this is a coincidence. I don't think it's a plus for Vinum, anyway. I suspect that somewhere in the system we have a problem with process balancing. It's very obvious initializing Vinum subdisks, where the elapsed time for performing identical operations in parallel can vary by a factor of 2:1. > The only problem I have run into so far is creating a 3 disk RAID5 > array.

That depends very much on what you want to do. RAID 10 will be faster, of course.

All will be documented in the above page when I get it done. My FreeBSD VPN requirements are mostly as a client, rather than as a server. I'm finding that mpd-netgraph is pretty good for connecting to a Windows2000 box, after a small patch was applied to coerce it to authenticate with MS-CHAP instead of MD5-CHAP.

Yes vinum was faster in the mail test. I think the big hit has been the issue of RAID5 on 3 disks.

So a shift to 4.01 will soon to be considered. Do you think people will only buy Matrox G 400 because it is very well supported by X 3? To speak for my case, i have received mail that GeForce works with X 3 but my own works very poorly, if at all. I am obliged to go to 4.01 and install nVidia drivers under Linux.

The mother board is an Abit KT7 hosting a Duron with Via chipset. I can triple boot FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE (stock GENERIC kernel) Linux and Win98. Problem: under freebsd i cannot run fdformat fd0. Immediately bad crc errors appear, only some sectors come out with V. Of course i have tried with several floppies and two floppy drives, one of them working very well in another machine. Much stranger: with the same floppy and floppy drive and machine, formatting works perfectly OK with Linux and Win98. To add to the bizarre, once i have a good fdformatted floppy (under linux) i can perfectly read and write to it under freebsd. dd if=/dev/fd0 of= /tmp/flop works and is quite fast. dd if=/tmp/flop of=/dev/fd0 also works. Floppy drives are Sony, and it is the first time i see that on a freebsd machine. -- Michel Talon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Thu Sep 7 4:49:33 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from gem.lightlink.com (gem.lightlink.com [205.232.34.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4D2CC37B63C for ; Thu, 7 Sep 2000 04:46:02 -0700 (PDT) Received: from cornell.edu (isdn1-13.lightlink.com [205.232.34.78]) by gem.lightlink.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id HAA32615 for ; Thu, 7 Sep 2000 07:46:00 -0400 Message-ID: <39B747A2.E5B74CF6@cornell.edu> Date: Thu, 07 Sep 2000 07:45:38 +0000 From: Nikita Proskourine X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.org Subject: problems with make buildworld still...

Well, the cvsup for the latest bugfixes alone is worth it. I guess I don't know why you are making buildworld and installworld right after installing without updating anything (what you said makes it sound like you completed the install, then cd /usr/src and started building for the hell of it). If you cvsup, you WILL have to buildworld and installworld. Oh, before you cvsup to 4.1-STABLE, cd into the /usr/src/sys/ufs/ffs directory and delete the two symlinks (softdeps.c and ufs_softdeps.h, I believe). Between 4.0-RELEASE and 4.1-STABLE they got changed from symlinks to real files, its the one thing cvsup doesn't do on its own, and you'll have to do it if you want the build to succeed.

This is why I should never write eMail right before I go to bed, I end up forgetting things. Problems 1 and 2 are indicative of some sort of hardware errors as mentioned in three, and the ata controller resetting because of device timeouts. Strip the machine down to what it needs to run, and run hard drive diagnostics on the hard drive. If you can stand to lose all the data on the drive, do write/ read 0 testing to it. If not, there are lesser tests which may work, but won't test the drive as fully as a write/ read 0. But write errors when installing (and read errors on the fly) are most likely the cause of the "at least one corrupted file", and perhaps with the compile time errors as well (missing files, corrupted files, etc.). Oh, and if its still failing, change the IDE cables as well; I know it sounds strange, but I've had bad IDE cables as well. Cheers!

I don't think that's fair, 4.0.1 sometimes works pretty well for me, I have the dual head stuff setup and it's awesome. It doesn't work at all on my laptop however. I'd say that if you want to upgrade, do a complete backup of your existing X11 directory and if you can't get 4.0.1 working in 20-40 minutes then it's time to save yourself the fustration and go back to 3.3.6. -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."

So that > must be different than your GeForce, right? Yes, the "GeForce2 GTS" and "GeForce 256" are different chips. There's also an even newer "GeForce2 Ultra". The GeForce 256 works fine with XFree86 3.3.6 and 4.0.1. The GeForce2 is a different story: After much research I decided that it *might* be possible to get this card working with 4.0.1 if you use some binary-only Linux drivers from Nvidia; with 3.3.6 it looks completely hopeless. At that point I threw the TNT2 card back in the PC and put the GeForce2 back in the Win2000 PC I borrowed it from.

The machine I'm on is a small workstation that is usually very quiet (mosly used as an x-terminal and e-mail destination). At least three times, I have had load averages suddenly jump to over 1 and stay there. This is very unusual for this machine. The only time I get load averages that high normally is a buildworld/installworld. top shows one running process (itself) and that the machine is 90+% idle. The only way to fix things seems to be to reboot the machine. The load average profile after the jump looks just like normal, except everything is +1 from there.

I don't have a solution/suggestion. But I can say that I've seen this as well. Only once or twice, and it seemed to have no negative effect on the machine - it was just an unusually high load average (in my case, all three of them were 1.00 on a machine that was doing hardly anything - and they stayed at exactly 1.00 for some hours) -- FreeBSD ('BSD'): No battles to the death are recalled.

Unfortunately, it seems lyris doesn't call signal(SIGCHLD, SIG_IGN). I'm still getting zombies out of it... grrr. It uses linux kernel threads, and that seems to be where the issue is. On linux, I'm guessing those threads don't need to be reaped by wait(), but in the linuxalator under FreeBSD, they do. Perhaps I need to attack the linux kernel thread implementation...

It is a GeForce 256 (as recognized by the SVGA driver) and on FreeBSD the screen rapidly becomes corrupted. Since i can dual boot linux, i can see that here this corruption problem does not occur, for whatever reason i don't know, but i cannot get a greater resolution than 1024 x 768 (above screen remains black) which is poor on a 17" Iyama screen. > Hmmm.

I have spent my afternoon compiling X 4.01 i have run X -configure (which recognizes the same chip) and X and all that happens is that X coredumps and leaves me without terminal. Same replacing the nv_drv driver with the binary nvidia driver. I have carefully applied everything in the README's including compilation of nvidia linux kernel module and making of devices. During the compilation i have seen a lot of -DUSE_MMX floating around which makes me wonder wether this is appropriate on an AMD processor.

At present i am reduced to run my freebsd box on terminal mode. Hope i will find some issue to that. Note that this is not the only problem with that machine.

Thought it'd be fixed ages ago :) There was a big discussion about this on the bsdi-users mailing list a year or so ago. The gist of the problem was that on x86 architecture, you don't have enough timers to measure the system without affecting the system. Something about needing to make the resolution of the measuring timer be relatively prime to the scheduling timer. Thus, it is possible for the two logical timers to get in sync and artifically increase the load. Usually running some CPU intensive job breaks the synchronization. This is from memory, so may be slightly inaccurate, and may not apply to FreeBSD, though I suspect it does considering the issue was with the hardware capabilities. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Vivek Khera, Ph.D. Khera Communications, Inc.

Guess that makes some sort of sense. Oddly maybe, I most often noticed this after running top just after an /etc/daily /etc/security run, one of the few times of day that the l.a. ever gets past 1 around here .. > This is from memory, so may be slightly inaccurate, and may not apply > to FreeBSD, though I suspect it does considering the issue was with > the hardware capabilities.

I've installed 4.0-R via a 3c589C with no problems. I assume 4.1-R would also have no problems. You use the ep driver, and do a pcmcia install. Works fine, but you have to get your pcmcia controller and irqs for the cards done correctly and install with pcmcia. PAO is no longer required for this to work well. -mobile would be a better place to ask about this.

There are two or three likely sources for the LC_CTYPE. First, it could be the X server. To see if this is the case, use the following .xinitrc: #!/bin/sh xterm and then do a printenv. I kinda doubt it as I don't see this on my systems here, but I use XFree86 3.3.6. Second, it could be coming gnome-terminal. You can test this out by changing the above script in the obvious way. Do a printenv as well. This likely is where the problem came from. I don't use kde, gnome, or anything more complex than twm + xterm or qvwm + xterm. In any event the make system likely should cope.

(with regards to scripts) I use sh for nearly all "serious" shell scripts; I only do the most trivial things as csh scripts, so I doubt I would notice any subtle incompatibilities. csh is my interactive shell of choice, and tcsh is just different enough to cause serious transition shock. What's wrong with small, simple, and functional? Why do I need 609K of feature bloat when a 279K executable does everything I want? Consider also that we're talking about the default shell for root here; the most conservative choice minimizes the possibility of unpleasant surprises. If I'm called in to perform disaster recovery on someone else's server--or worse, asked to perform telephone support--the last thing I want to trip over is some junior sysadmin wannabe's customized .tcshrc that screws up everything even more. What individuals choose as defaults for their personal accounts is their business. I don't see a problem with having sh, ksh, zsh, bash, csh, tcsh, _whatever_ available. But I stand by my opinion that replacing csh with tcsh in 4.1-RELEASE was the single most ill-conceived action taken by the committers. I expect to continue recommending 3.5.1-RELEASE for all new installations where it's hardware-compatible.

The old "csh" in pre-4.0 FreeBSD was actually a stripped down implementation of tcsh. The old "csh" in FreeBSD was not replaced with tcsh. Rather, the old reduced-feature tcsh in pre-4.0 FreeBSD was restored to a fully functional tcsh. -- Crist J.

I'm sure if you actually contributed a list of changes, I can generate a csh.cshrc for all the old-timers who want it to work "exactly the way it always did".

And how does this differ from some junior sysadmin wannabe's customized .cshrc? If he's a junior sysadmin wannabe, you're going to have to tell him to type 'csh' anyway. Now just tell him to type 'csh -f', and it won't do any 'l33t K-r4d ~/.tcshrc reading. > But I stand by my opinion that replacing csh with tcsh in 4.1-RELEASE > was the single most ill-conceived action taken by the committers. Well. Firstly, this wasn't an action taken in a void by the evil committers who do everything behind the backs of the users. This was brought up on 6 April on a public forum, and the concensus was that it was worthwhile. Now, yet again, if you have a problem with the way things work when csh is invoked as 'csh', then report it, and don't bring it up arbitrarily on a mailing list. If you report it, we can fix it. It can function again the way you like. If you don't report it, then you don't get to complain. > I expect to continue recommending 3.5.1-RELEASE for all new > installations where it's hardware-compatible. (Why, oh why, > wasn't Adaptec 29160 support back-ported?) That's your decision. If you think the 300k hit is too big, and you can't be bothered to use the 44bsd-csh package, and you don't appreciate the fact we now have a _maintained_ csh-compatible csh with a UI that non-guru's can use, and you can't take the time to actually report your problems to the proper forums at all, and you're willing to live without numerous improvements and optimizations that have and will occur in the future _just_ because you can't be bothered putting in the effort to get it fixed, then that's what you think. Not much I can do about it, really.

This setting is totally useless if you're planning on running XFre86-4.0 with something like GNOME; you simply run out of shared memory segments, and consequently many programs just won't start up, issuing "X error of failed request". The SHMSEG setting is also one of the "undocumented" options in LINT, so consequently it was hard work trying to solve the problem. I have since compiled my custom kernel with SHMSEG=1024, and everything works beautifully. -- "I'm entirely unaccountable for any moments of sanity contained herein." :s/Windows/UNIX John Toon | j.a.toon@btinternet.com | "Sonnilon" To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Fri Sep 8 7:37:59 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from point.osg.gov.bc.ca (point.osg.gov.bc.ca [142.32.102.44]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B578237B446 for ; Fri, 8 Sep 2000 07:37:54 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from daemon@localhost) by point.osg.gov.bc.ca (8.8.7/8.8.8) id HAA06175; Fri, 8 Sep 2000 07:37:52 -0700 Received: from passer.osg.gov.bc.ca(142.32.110.29) via SMTP by point.osg.gov.bc.ca, id smtpda06173; Fri Sep 8 07:37:33 2000 Received: (from uucp@localhost) by passer.osg.gov.bc.ca (8.9.3/8.9.1) id HAA03220; Fri, 8 Sep 2000 07:37:33 -0700 (PDT) Received: from cwsys9.cwsent.com(10.2.2.1), claiming to be "cwsys.cwsent.com" via SMTP by passer9.cwsent.com, id smtpdKm3218; Fri Sep 8 07:37:07 2000 Received: (from uucp@localhost) by cwsys.cwsent.com (8.11.0/8.9.1) id e88Eb7t03189; Fri, 8 Sep 2000 07:37:07 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <200009081437.e88Eb7t03189@cwsys.cwsent.com> Received: from localhost.cwsent.com(127.0.0.1), claiming to be "cwsys" via SMTP by localhost.cwsent.com, id smtpdcM3183; Fri Sep 8 07:36:41 2000 X-Mailer: exmh version 2.1.1 10/15/1999 Reply-To: Cy Schubert - ITSD Open Systems Group From: Cy Schubert - ITSD Open Systems Group X-OS: FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE X-Sender: cy To: John Toon Cc: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: SHMSEG and general shared memory settings In-reply-to: Your message of "Fri, 08 Sep 2000 14:31:00 BST." <39B8EA14.D76BFDD2@btinternet.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Fri, 08 Sep 2000 07:36:41 -0700 Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In message <39B8EA14.D76BFDD2@btinternet.com>, John Toon writes: > Hi, > > Could I suggest that the generic kernel be changed from having a > SHMSEG=9 (as in LINT) to something higher? > > This setting is totally useless if you're planning on running XFre86-4.0 > with something like GNOME; you simply run out of shared memory segments, > and consequently many programs just won't start up, issuing "X error of > failed request".

Should not parameters like this be in loader.conf? This would negate the need to build a new kernel when changing SYSV parameters.

Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello! I have a host running 4.0-RELEASE I've noticed that suddenly the load became more than 1, and it is sustained at that level for long time. I killed and restarted all processes that could've been producing the load. Now, I don't see any processes that could be the reason for such a load, (I am using "top" and "ps"), nor I see any unaccounted processes in /proc. host: [10:16] [140] ~#w 10:17AM up 63 days, 16:16, 1 user, load averages: 1.24, 1.34, 1.16 USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE WHAT str p0 anotherhost Thu09AM - w There are just one or two connections to sendmail or/and pop3 server as shown by netstat, but those are short-term connections. Q.: 1. Is there any bug in 4.0 that could be responsible for indicating such relatively high load (in the absense of "active" processes") ? The ps and systat -vmstat outputs are below. systat -vmstat does not show much activity. Also: 2. Although it doesn't look like the host is compromized, but if it was, how can I check for "hidden" processes (assuming that the kernel was not changed (if hiding is possible in this case), and otherwise) ?

That is what it looks like. I have to say that sucks, though. We use a rather involved version of Apache for a web server, and part of the reason why I was upgrading the kernel instead of just reinstalling and restoring was so that I wouldn't have to recompoile packages such as Apache. :-( It's only mod_perl that isn't working, it seems. Of course, it's either work on that or work on Act!, so you can guess which I'll be hacking on. :-) SeanMike -- SeanMike Whipkey - Damnit. Where's my witty repartee? "Ow! Ow! Ow!

Personally, I use the O'Rielly performance and tuning book, though working in an Oracle ghetto does help understand the parameters. Sun has some good papers describing them as well.

Likes" Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I've been noticing this lately, but I don't know how long this has been going on. I've been trying to figure out how to get /etc/periodic/daily/100.clean-disks to work. I was getting ready to send in a problem report, but before I did I cvsupped to see if there was a newer version of the file which may have fixed my problem. Sure enough, the cvsup had a newer version of the file (minor revision changed from 1.3.2.1 to 1.3.2.2). I looked at the file, and didn't see any obvious changes, so I tried diff. The only difference in the file was the version number line. No whitespace, no variable names, nothing else, just the version number and date. The last couple of updates I have done, when using mergemaster to fix my /etc directory, I have noted a number of similar cases each time. Is there some reason for these version numbers to change even if the files haven't? That seems to only create extra work for admins doing updates. (Not to mention annoying them when they are running mergemaster. :-) ) --Kevin T. Likes p.s. If it makes a difference, I'm tracking RELENG_4.

Other opinions have also been tabulated. Your opinion is noted, but will not carry the day, because it is still only one person's opinion and the overall votes are against you. Perhaps the csh/tcsh move IS the worst action taken on the way to release 4.1, but if so then the people behind the 4.1 release should be mighty pleased that the WORST thing they did was still a good thing. Just MO. >I expect to continue recommending 3.5.1-RELEASE for all new >installations where it's hardware-compatible. (Why, oh why, >wasn't Adaptec 29160 support back-ported?) There are a lot of improvements in the newer releases, even for hardware that is supported by 3.5.1. At this point, I wouldn't run anything less than 4.1, unless constrained by some resource (memory, disk space, whatever). You have the source from 3.5.1. If this csh/tcsh change is the ONLY reason you are not recommending 4.1, then I would think your customers would be better off with 4.1 plus the old version version of csh. There is no one who is going to force you or your customers to run this new csh/tcsh if you do not want to run it. ps: is this the same EPS from NeXTSTEP/RBrowser days? --- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.acs.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or drosih@rpi.edu Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Fri Sep 8 10:25:40 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from usc.edu (usc.edu [128.125.253.136]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 960CB37B42C for ; Fri, 8 Sep 2000 10:25:32 -0700 (PDT) Received: from scf-fs.usc.edu (root@scf-fs.usc.edu [128.125.253.183]) by usc.edu (8.9.3.1/8.9.3/usc) with ESMTP id KAA05811 for ; Fri, 8 Sep 2000 10:25:28 -0700 (PDT) Received: from phoenix (res-2567.usc.edu [128.125.247.54]) by scf-fs.usc.edu (8.9.3.1/8.9.3/usc) with SMTP id KAA02278 for ; Fri, 8 Sep 2000 10:25:28 -0700 (PDT) From: "Khairuddin Ghani" To: Subject: full /var, but minimal content.

Okay, bad example. :-) But that's only on this one file. The last couple of times I've run mergemaster, I've seen files come up where the only change was the revision id. Of course, the real reason is probably someone checking it in without a fix they thought they'd put in (understandable as a small percentage). Bound to happen. By the way, has anyone gotten this script to actually delete files? I've been trying to debug why it won't work on my system, and the best I can figure out is that 1) it excludes everything (at lease the find2perl version does an lstat and excludes all files with any dev number) and 2) it wants files to match all patterns in a list instead of just one. But I'm probably missing something really simple. (Given the spelling mistake which would prevent it from running, I wonder if everyone is just leaving it off by default.) --Kevin T.

What you might be seeing is someone committing a fix, then backing it out again. If you go from x to x+2 you see no apparent change but if you had updated to x+1 first you would have.

How do I do that? I tried to built it manualy but I'm not sure if I'm doing this right, because the build fails. What i did: I extracted the src files, and went to the directory ./programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/bsd/drm/kernel/tdfx typed in make. And thats it I'm not that expert with compiling something, so I'm quite sure that I'm doing something wrong. > 2) You are running in a resolution that your card does not support for GL.

However, whatever they're doing, they seem to do *only* if you haven't explicitly set the i18n stuff in your environment. I had the same problem - practically every app running under GNOME/XFree86 4.0.1/FreeBSD 4.1-S hollered about the locale. I finally found the i18n section in the handbook (where else!), read it carefully and opted for the preferred method of setting these variables, through the login class. I created an "american" class in /etc/login.conf (there is an example "russian" class) and set my users' class (in master.passwd, using vipw) to "american" (no quotes). I haven't seen the error message since. My "american" class looks like this: # # American Users Accounts. Setup proper environment variables # american:American English Users:\ :charset=ISO-8859-1:\ :lang=en_US.ISO_8859-1:\ :tc=default: Note that, according to the handbook and bolstered by my experience, all you need to set are the "charset" and "lang" variables. > Ryan > rklosh@rkl.org Hope this is of some help.

I've compiled the agp module statically into the kernel and installed Xfree86 4.0.1 from the latest XFree86-4 port. This is on a FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE box, but I'm sending this message to -stable as the agp module doesn't seem to have changed since -RELEASE came out. When I run X or startx, X seems to start ok, I see the normal X startup stuff flash pass the screen and then the screen goes blank and the box locks up. Can't telnet to it (but can ping it). I have dmesg output, XFree86.0.log output and the XF86Config file if anyone would like to see them. Any suggestions as to what the problem is or what my next debugging step would be? (I suspect that would be trying gdb :(. If so what should I look for?) Carl.

(From what I can see.) The question is this: What happened to the pnp support in user config in 4.0? The man page pnp(4) is still there, although inaccurate, and from what I've looked though in the past two days, support for pnp configuration at boot seems to have disappeared. What's going on? I have hesitated to bring myself up past 4.0-STABLE (don't feel like messing around much and need stability on this machine), but I am seriously considering it if I need to, to add PnP support. If I went to -current, would PnP be restored? When I added the entry 'controller pnp0' as suggested by the pnp(4) manpage to my kernel config (which seemed strange to me because it was called controller), config said that 'controller' was depreciated and to use device. When I added the entry 'device pnp0', config told me it couldn't find the device pnp. So where has it gone? As far as I can see this is a large inconvenience for a number of people, so can someone please advice what can be done to configure PnP devices from /boot/kernel.conf or by other means at boot? Is there a substitute or other command that can be used in it's place? Was it depreciated? If so, by what? Why was this removed? Etc... etc... Usually this wouldn't be a concern, because I would just let it set itself, and forget it. (Plug'n Pray) However, I am running low on IRQs and need to move some things around; I want to give IRQs to devices that are coming up with 'can't assign resources'... Otherwise I can't get all the devices working due to stupidity in hardware. Some are on-board devices on the ISA side. I was considering to just go out and buy better hardware, but I don't want to give up since, IMHO, I think in most cases the software should be made to run on hardware, not the converse. (Plus, I wanted to get this specific hardware running.) It is a tight fit getting all the peripherals working, but it will fit if I can get the PnP side working.

If I "kldunload" my driver and subsequently try to open the device, the kernel panics. I found that the vn device suffers from this same bug. For example: Before kldload vn: [root@dbm]# echo -n>/dev/vn0 su: /dev/vn0: Device not configured [root@dbm]# This of course is the expected behavior. We then can do this... [root@dbm]# kldload vn [root@dbm]# echo -n>/dev/vn0 [root@dbm]# Again, expected behavior... But if we then do this... [root@dbm]# kldunload vn [root@dbm]# echo -n>/dev/vn0 we get an instant panic. It seems that there is already a pr open for this (kern/18270) which includes a patch to correctly cleanup after "kldunload". Is this the correct fix for this...why hasn't this been committed?? -- Regards, Devin.

"Don't do that" :) I'm not sure if the file will be added after the 21st or if there are lingering concerns - I hope it will, because that will make it extremely annoying for us otherwise. In particular, I don't intend to continue supporting rsaref, so this would make cvsup3 somewhat useless as a mirror if it doesnt carry the file.
