I've run SLIP absolutely without trouble since installing 2.0R. Last
week I tried to replace SLIP with PPP. But I can't keep the connection
up. The symptom is consistent: The connection is established, and I
can do rlogin or rsh or telnet, with X up, but after about five
minutes, the system wedges. Once I got a good symptom:
-------------
Fatal Trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault virtual address 0xf0550000
fault code: supervisor read, page not present
instruction pointer 0x8: 0xf0138d92 (<--not perfectly sure about 0x8)
process: pppd
Stopped at _pppfcs+0x16 xorb 0(%ebx),%dl
-------------
Here's pppfcs, in if_ppp.c:
-------------
/*
* Calculate a new FCS given the current FCS and the new data.
*/
static u_short
pppfcs(fcs, cp, len)
register u_short fcs;
register u_char *cp;
register int len;
{
while (len--)
fcs = PPP_FCS(fcs, *cp++);
return (fcs);
}
-------------
Plainly, the xorb appears in the PPP_FCS macro, defined in if_ppp.h:
-------------
#define PPP_FCS(fcs, c) (((fcs) >> 8) ^ fcstab[((fcs) ^ (c)) & 0xff])
-------------
Here's the relevant
part of /etc/rc.local:
-------------
# Added 1/23/95, changed to pppgo 4/21/95 -- wouldn't it be neat if it works!
rm -f /var/spool/uucp/LCK..cua00
/usr/local/bin/pppgo &
-------------
And here's pppgo:
-------------
#!/bin/csh
# pppgo [ -d ]
# Usage as shown to get started
set LOCK = /var/spool/uucp/LCK..cua00
if ( -f $LOCK ) then
echo "cua00 is locked. Sorry"
exit 1
endif
set debug = ''
if ("x$1" == 'x-d') then;
set debug = echo
shift
endif
echo Debug is .$debug.
echo '$1' is $1
if (`whoami` != 'root') then
echo Sorry, you must be root
exit 1
endif
$debug stty -f /dev/cua00 crtscts hupcl 38400
$debug /usr/sbin/pppd modem crtscts defaultroute connect /usr/local/bin/chat83\
netmask 0xfffffe00 /dev/cua00 38400
$debug netstat -nr
## echo Remember to use pppstop when done.

I don't know if the above is any use, but I'd be tickled if it sheds
some light.
