https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=197137 Bug ID: 197137 Summary: benchmarks/netperf: Enable OMNI by default Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: marius@FreeBSD.org Reporter: marcel@FreeBSD.org Assignee: marius@FreeBSD.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(marius@FreeBSD.org) The netperf package is incompatible with non-FreeBSD netperf installations. The error on NetBSD or Ubuntu is: marcel@ubuntu:~$ netperf -H 192.168.160.172 MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 192.168.160.172 () port 0 AF_INET : demo Unknown error 998 netperf: remote error 998 The problem is caused by FreeBSD's netperf port having OMNI disabled by default. Apparently this introduces a compatibility problem. The FreeBSD netperf can communicate with a non-FreeBSD netperf, so it appears to be a one-way incompatibility. The fix is to build the netperf port by hand with OMNI enabled. Given that OMNI is enabled by default since netperf 2.5, it's not clear why FreeBSD keeps it disabled. Especially since it breaks interoperability OOTB. A better default is to have OMNI enabled... --- Comment #1 from Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> --- Auto-assigned to maintainer marius@FreeBSD.org -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
