Hi folks, This is a copy of a message I sent to cvs-all, requesting help with kernel loadable SMBFS support without the need for LIBICONV statically linked into the kernel. Ciao, Sheldon. ------- Forwarded Message Date: Wed, 25 Jul 2001 21:29:18 +0200 From: Sheldon Hearn <sheldonh@starjuice.net> To: cvs-committers@FreeBSD.org cc: cvs-all@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: cvs commit: src/sys/modules/libiconv Makefile Message-ID: <854.996089358@axl.seasidesoftware.co.za> On Wed, 25 Jul 2001 12:21:06 MST, Sheldon Hearn wrote: > Added files: > sys/modules/libiconv Makefile > Log: > Add build infrastructure for a libiconv loadable kernel module. > > This should allow the use of the smbfs module without the > requirement to rebuild the kernel with LIBICONV. I haven't connected this to the modules build because I can't test that it works. Sure, it loads fine, but I get a reproducible kernel mode page fault in the rl(4) interrupt handler when I actually try to use it. 1) Start with smbfs.ko, libiconv.ko, libmchain.ko neither loaded nor statically linked. 2) Configure an SMB mount as per normal (e.g. edit /etc/fstab and /usr/local/etc/nsmb.conf). 3) Try to mount the share (e.g. mount /smb/mydomain/mypeer). At this point, I get my trap. Of course, I can't get a crash dump, because the DDB panic command dies a horrible death as the kernel squeals about lockmgr locking against itself. If I could get feedback on this from both rl(4) users and users of other NIC drivers, I'd be ecstatic. On the other hand, a functional kernel debugger wouldn't hurt. Ciao, Sheldon. ------- End of Forwarded Message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
