These represent problem reports covering all versions fo FreeBSD including experimental development code and obsolete releases. Bugs can be in one of several states: open A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed analyzed The report has been examined by a team member and evaluated feedback The problem has been solved, and the originator has been given a patch or a fix has been committed. The PR remains in this state pending a response from the originator. suspended Work on the problem has been postponsed. This happens if a timely solution is not possible or is not cost-effective at the present time. The PR continues to exist, though a solution is not being actively sought. If the problem cannot be solved at all, it will be closed, rather than suspended. closed A problem report is closed when any changes have been integrated, documented, and tested.

For three weeks I have tried every permutation of installing Free BSD on a 386 and 486 pc so that it installs on a SCSI drive purchased especially for the install. The problem is that I have an IDE drive as drive C and the SCSI as drive D. DOS sees everything fine and I have no hardware conflicts. What were the problems? 1) BSD's Fdisk cannot see the correct geometry for the SCSI drive. Even though I plug in the right numbers for the drive, BSD adds the size of the IDE drive to the SCSI drive and then destroys the partition table of both drives. Even when I dedicate the entire SCSI drive to FreeBSD, The install destroys the IDE partition and Boot sectors. 2) The installer destroys the partition table of the IDE drive even if the install is aborted. I assume that that last little syncing drives 1...2... is what does it before the install quits. 3) Even though the install seems to go without errors, the bootmgr uses virus technology (sic) to install itself in track 0 sector 1. This cannot be removed by using fdisk /mbr as it also seems that the track is write protected. Even diskedit cannot zero out the sector. This has cause several screaming fits around here as the only low level format I have is in the bios of my old 386 board so I then have to reinstall it to retrieve the drive. SOMEONE WHOULD WARN USERS OF THIS. THE RECOVERY PROCEDURE IS AS FOLLOWS: low level format the drive install DOS from the original setup. The usual procedures do not work I suspect because they use BIOS routines while the original DOS install writes directly to the disk 4 Even if I put a small BSD partition on the IDE drive for root and swap, the BSD fdisk still screws up the SCSI partitions (thinks the drive is much larger than reality) and then destroys the IDE drive. 5 The FIPS program has a serious bug in it as it creates a second primary dos partition which confuses the hell out of DOS Short of dedicating a complete machine to BSD, is there any way to install BSD on a SCSI drive D when an IDE drive is already installed. How can one deinstall the stupid Bootmgr??? The last response to this question was some words about patching INT13 but had no real mechanism or software to do this.

Anyway, your method is not portable programming, in case you are not sure whether the first operand might start with a hyphen, better prepend it with a knwon to be alpha character, as in: if [ "X$1" = "X-h" ] ; then etc. Our test(1) implementation fully agrees with Posix.2: The algorithm for determining the precedence of the operators and the 1 return value that shall be generated is based on the number of arguments 1 presented to test. (However, when using the [...] form, the right- 1 bracket final argument shall not be counted in this algorithm.) In the 1 following list, $1, $2, $3, and $4 represent the arguments presented to 1 test. 1 0 arguments: 1 ... 1 argument: 1 ... 2 arguments: 1 ... 3 arguments: 1 - If $2 is a binary primary, perform the binary test of $1 and 2 $3. 2 - If $1 is !, negate the two-argument test of $2 and $3. 1 - Otherwise, produce unspecified results. 1 4 arguments: 1 - If $1 is !, negate the three-argument test of $2, $3, and $4. 1 - Otherwise, the results are unspecified. 1 >4 arguments: 1 The results are unspecified. 1 The ``> 4 arguments'' is the case you are complaining about. As you can see, it's up to the implementation of the test command to decide about the operator precedence.

Unfortunately, you forgot to provide us with the detailed information required to track such a bug. As it stands, it's neither clear to us what happened nor reproducible in any way. The only chance to get help is to send us: . exact disk information (what disk? what BIOS geometry? did the FreeBSD installation recognize the BIOS geometry or did it guess wrong?), . the exact figures of the created failing fdisk table (either C/H/S values as well as the logical sector offset/length for each fdisk partition -- a hexdump of the entire master boot record would count as a sufficient replacement in case you are not able to send us these numbers). -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-) From owner-freebsd-bugs Wed Jun 5 07:40:05 1996 Return-Path: owner-bugs Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id HAA04891 for bugs-outgoing; Wed, 5 Jun 1996 07:40:05 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from gnats@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id HAA04883; Wed, 5 Jun 1996 07:40:03 -0700 (PDT) Resent-Date: Wed, 5 Jun 1996 07:40:03 -0700 (PDT) Resent-Message-Id: <199606051440.HAA04883@freefall.freebsd.org> Resent-From: gnats (GNATS Management) Resent-To: freebsd-bugs Resent-Reply-To: FreeBSD-gnats@freefall.FreeBSD.org, hsu@clinet.fi Received: from hauki.clinet.fi (hauki.clinet.fi [194.100.0.1]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id HAA04423 for ; Wed, 5 Jun 1996 07:33:09 -0700 (PDT) Received: from katiska.clinet.fi (root@katiska.clinet.fi [194.100.0.4]) by hauki.clinet.fi (8.7.5/8.6.4) with ESMTP id RAA00921 for ; Wed, 5 Jun 1996 17:32:36 +0300 (EET DST) Received: (hsu@localhost) by katiska.clinet.fi (8.7.5/8.6.4) id RAA20913; Wed, 5 Jun 1996 17:32:35 +0300 (EET DST) Message-Id: <199606051432.RAA20913@katiska.clinet.fi> Date: Wed, 5 Jun 1996 17:32:35 +0300 (EET DST) From: Heikki Suonsivu Reply-To: hsu@clinet.fi To: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org X-Send-Pr-Version: 3.2 Subject: kern/1293: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode (PPP/modems/cyclades?)

The only programs running in these machines are pppd, rlogin, getty (patched agetty, actually) and gated. >Description: The machine locks up with console containing either Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode ... or some fatal trap message and a double panic message. It seems that about 1 crash out of 4 leads to a deadlock like one of these. Other panics are reboots without trails, the systems do not seem to generate dumps. If it is a hardware problem, it would have to be a general design problem in one of the components (cyclades is the only "uncommon" piece of hardware). But I doubt it, as the same configuration works fine with leased lines, and the machines are from varying ages and configurations. It seems that this has something to do with dialup modems. >How-To-Repeat: I do not know.

Another user posted a message on the newsgroup comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc which appears to report a similar or the same problem: ----begin extract of posting from Gunther Schadow (gusw@zedat.fu-berlin.de) my new machine has an Adaptech 2940 Ultra SCSI host adapter with an IBM DORS SCSI2 (2 GB) disk, a CD ROM and a DAT drive attached to it. Now, when I write to the DAT, everything seems O.K., however, when trying to read, I sometimes get: ahc0: target 6, lun 0 (st0) timed out st0(ahc0:6:0): BUS DEVICE RESET message queued and then: st0(ahc0:6:0): Target Busy I can't figure out, what is wrong here, since sometimes reading works just fine. But then, there's an other problem, that occurs even when writing to the DAT (namely a file system dump). Now, it's the disk that timed out, and this causes the SCSI bus to reset, and the kernel to hang, doing nothing any more. ahc0: target 0, lun 0 (sd0) timed out ad0(ahc:0:0:0): BUS DEVICE RESET message queued ahc0: target 0, lun 0 (sd0) timed out and HANG. ---end extract of posting >How-To-Repeat: See description. I first suspected a hardware problem with the CD or the CD-ROM drive, but I verified both of them on anther PC running the same release, but has a BusLogic SCSI controller. This and the other news posting leads me to believe that the adaptec controller is the common problem item. The same PC works fine with WindowsNT, so I would tend to believe that the controller itself is not broken, just has some problems with the FreeBSD driver. >Fix: Do not use the CD-ROM drive with FreeBSD.

Both are Pentium, with Triton Motherboard. BusLogic SCSI. One has 2 disks and a CD-ROM. The other has one disk and a CD-ROM. No IDE disks. One machine has ATI-Mach64, the other has ATI-Mach 32 graphics. One has 3COM lan card, the other has SMC lan card. >Description: I installed the X-User cluster from the Express menu, using a local SCSI CD-ROM as my media. I then installed the DES package (all pieces) from the Custom menu, using a filesystem on a local server via nfs as my media. (The install directory on the server contains more than the DES install files). The server is on the same subnet as the machine being installed. After both installs, I checked the network interfaces section of the Configuration menu. The information I had entered for the server which made the nfs install possible (i.e. IP addr, nameserver IP addr, gateway IP addr, netmask value) was still in the menu, and it was correct. After the system rebooted when I exited the installation, the network did not come up configure properly. The netmask was wrong (ff000000) among other things. After several attempts, I discovered that if I performed the exact same steps as above, except that I installed the X-User cluster from NFS from that same fileserver, my result was different. After the reboot after installation, the machine came up with the correct network configuration. I tracked down the problem - the line in /etc/sysconfig which should read ifconfig_de0="inet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.255.0" was missing after the first install above, but present after the second. I believe this is a bug, since all the other information that I entered (such as hostname, host's IP addr, defaultrouter) did get placed in /etc/sysconfig. >How-To-Repeat: see description >Fix: Always install from NFS.

I've got 20 tun, 20 slip and 15 pp devices configured in my kernel but we seem to be having some problems when we get up around 12 - 13 (in total) in use.. User ppp caused a problem at first with "device not configured" sometimes and "can't find ifindex" at others. We got past that one with some mods to the ppp code but yesterday, a cslip connection failed rather strangely. Sliplogin worked ok and configured the interface (sl8) but I could not get it to come up. "ifconfig -au" did not show sl8 "ifconfig sl8 up" did not change the state "ifconfig sl8" did show the source and destination correctly. We tried twice with the same result. The same person has had no trouble up till now, and he's got on since. He's using ppp until I can sort it out. Problem is we rarely get more than 12 connections at a time so its hard to troubleshoot.. I tracked down the earlier ppp problem to the kernel returning ENOXIO from the call to open the tun device in os.c . The change I made was to ignore this and try the next device until one worked. This is now working fine, but I can't explain why the kernel should return ENOXIO even when the device is in use. The reason I'm thinking there may be some limit is that the ppp problem only showed itself when we got up to about 12 or 13 interfaces in use, and there was 12 in use during the slip problem also. I'm fairly sure the problem is with the kernel configuration but can't find where I've gone wrong.. The machine is a 486 with 8 Meg ram and 2 16ye cyclades cards.

They are totally harmless. The ``sendto: permission denied'' sounds like you have IPFW in your kernel. This is expected. You first need to alter the ipfw rule to allow packets out.

Same problem. We've got a machine with a couple hundred interface aliases on a single interface. Periodically, one or two specific aliases on it will break; the interface will no longer respond to packets addressed to that alias, and there will be extra host routes added towards the interface. Deleting the routes and the alias, then re-adding the alias, solves the problem. However, do this once or twice (and 2 or 3 always break at once), and all (every one of 'em) the aliases go away. We add the aliases from a script. Re-running the script and re-adding the aliases has twice now fixed the problem for weeks at a time. I've observed that this problem only occurs at or around boot-up time (I check immediately after reboots now). I've also noticed that this only seems to happen immediately after the route cache expire times get shorter. I'm wondering if route expirations could be causing the problem; that would explain (to me) why the system stabilizes completely after adding the aliases again (all the routes get re-added) and the problem goes away for a long time (because the route cache expire time only goes down once or twice, and always right after the system comes up). Any ideas? This is happening on a Pentium 133 with an SMC ISA Ethernet NIC and 64M RAM. MAXUSERS is currently 64, NMBCLUSTERS is 2048 (we're not running out of mbufs or anything tho.) rtmaxcache is 400, up from 200, and I'm trying it at 600, although this seems like a band-aid for the problem (if route expires really are the problem), since changes in the route cache expiration shouldn't (from what I can tell) kill all the interfaces.

I have an ASUS P55TP4XEG, Pentium 120Mhz, 64Mb 60ns FPM RAM, Buslogic 946, external 4.3Gb Conner SCSI-II drive, SMC EtherPower NIC. The system is virtually identical to another system that runs with no troubles whatsoever. However, executables occasionally come up as slightly modified on the new system. Typically, only one byte changes. These are files that should never be written to, reflect no timestamp changes, and don't seem to have been modified with malice in mind. Sometimes the change has no effect, sometimes it results in various crashes. I've set up a monitoring program to report any diffs on cksum's of every program and library on the system. Some days nothing changes, other days a couple of files will change. I usually reload those files from the other system and continue. In one case, cksum reported a file as different, but it was OK immediately afterwards. Most of the changes have occurred under extremely light load, in some cases with only one user logged in. There is no evidence of foul play. The files so far affected have been: /usr/local/lib/libc-client.so.2.2 /usr/sbin/inetd /bin/csh /usr/libexec/telnetd They sound like targets for a hacker, but as I said, single-byte changes have resulted in the following effects: libc-client - vi could no longer redraw the screen inetd - inetd would randomly dump core csh - hitting Escape for command completion would dump core telnetd - telnetd would not execute at all The symptoms, combined with the case in which cksum came up with a wrong answer, seem to indicate some sort of "flaky" problem, either with memory or the disk controller or the drive itself. However, I really can't see why any part of these programs would ever be written to disk. In any case, I'm seeking advice or ideas. I once heard of someone with a similar problem on the FreeBSD lists, but I've been unable to track down a reference.

Except for one instance when it was actually a VM system bug (and this was a LONG time ago), it turned out to be bad cache ram in every instance. Single bit errors in the cache were causing files to show up with erroneous contents. If you do a `make world' in a continuous loop, you'll find that it aborts occasionally with a syntax error in one of the source files. Go look at the file in question and you'll find some strange error where a character has changed its value in some strategic spot. This is a sure sign!

What would be the most important kernel config parameters that may have a bearing here. From my reading, maxusers of 10 should be ample, I've set it to 15 anyway. I am using the default CHILD_MAX and OPEN_MAX settings. We have 14 slip, 10 tun devices in the configuration at the moment. The sliplogin process failed with I think 9 sliplogin processes and 3 or 4 ppp connections. Hmmm, I've just noticed some errors showing in the system message buffer that are not turning up in /var/log/messages at least not in full. dmesg shows: arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo and 110 more lines the same :( I only found two similar lines in /var/log/messages* messages.1:May 30 00:50:19 pasa /kernel: ocate llinfo messages.1:May 30 00:50:19 pasa /kernel: ocate llinfo Note, the machine has only been up 12 hours at the moment so the current stuff shown in dmesg is not getting logged.

With lots of interfaces, the buffer is too small. "ifconfig sl8" (the port that wouldn't come up) did not show the UP flag so I assumed thats why ifconfig -au did not list it. Trying to ping the machine on the other end gave network down errors. We are upgrading to a pre-mega_commit -stable tomorrow on another machine with different problem :( more about that in a different message. If that works we will move the dialin machine to -stable within the week. However I can't see any changes to the kernel that would fix the ppp problem in -stable, the slip one has me totally baffled (not hard I assure you :) > > We tried twice with the same result.

On all three of our servers, one running news, a web server, and a serial router, we have had them fail in a consistent way. They continue to route traffic and are pingable but will not respond either on the console, open telnet sessions or start new telnet sessions. Nothing is logged as to what may have caused the problem. The root directories do not grow at all (/tmp and /var are linked to /usr/?), I ran a cron job every 5 minutes for a while on one of the machines logging numbers of processes, uptime, df output and swapinfo. This did not show any steady increase to any of the parameters apart from the usual peaks and lows. The servers are all 486 machines with between 8 and 16 Meg of RAM, one using scusi and the others ide. We have upgraded one of them (the news server) to -stable and we will be moving another over today in the hope this may fix the problem. Can anyone give a hint as to why this should be happening to me? I'm sure I was a good guy in my previous life :) ciao dave -- Dave Edwards davo@katy.apana.org.au || davo@frisbee.net.au Adelaide, South Australia ---- From owner-freebsd-bugs Fri Jun 7 20:12:52 1996 Return-Path: owner-bugs Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id UAA27068 for bugs-outgoing; Fri, 7 Jun 1996 20:12:52 -0700 (PDT) Received: from godzilla.zeta.org.au (godzilla.zeta.org.au [203.2.228.19]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) with SMTP id UAA27039; Fri, 7 Jun 1996 20:12:39 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from bde@localhost) by godzilla.zeta.org.au (8.6.12/8.6.9) id NAA15037; Sat, 8 Jun 1996 13:09:32 +1000 Date: Sat, 8 Jun 1996 13:09:32 +1000 From: Bruce Evans Message-Id: <199606080309.NAA15037@godzilla.zeta.org.au> To: davo@katy.apana.org.au, freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org, freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Interface problem Cc: sa-tech@tierzero.apana.org.au Sender: owner-bugs@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk >Hmmm, I've just noticed some errors showing in the system message >buffer that are not turning up in /var/log/messages at least >not in full. dmesg shows: >arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo >and 110 more lines the same :( >I only found two similar lines in /var/log/messages* >messages.1:May 30 00:50:19 pasa /kernel: ocate llinfo >messages.1:May 30 00:50:19 pasa /kernel: ocate llinfo It looks like the message buffer filled up. >Note, the machine has only been up 12 hours at the moment so the >current stuff shown in dmesg is not getting logged.

It always allocates the specified unit even if this unit is in use or doesn't exist. Perhaps this causes some of your other problems. >Can anyone tell me why open(/dev/tun0) would return ENOXIO when >the device is in use? ENXIO.

I rebooted my system and it gave me, I guess, the boot manager. It said: "F1 for dos F2 for freebsd" I hadn't finished installing it, so I though it was going to undo everything. I loaded windows 95 (the dos partition) and deleted the freebsd partition. I though when I did that that it would get rid of the choice thing. I rebooted my computer, but it came up again except there was only one option and that was F1 for dos. Is there a way I can get rid of that? When I ran FIPS I saved the boot records on a disk so I have the file rootboot.000 is there any hope for me??? This is the family computer, and so the rest of my family will be unhappy at the wait for it to pass.

From my (admittedly scanty) reading of the source, this is the most improtant parameter there is. I set ours to 64+ on anything that will be having more than casual use.

One hack is to disable all SET_RX_EARLY_THRESH commands. After disabling SET_RX_EARLY_THRESH the card is able to receive packets of all sizes, but with a high input error rate. Which isn't really nice either, but 15% packet loss is still better than receiving every 15th packet ... Also, not using RX_EARLY interrupts might increase the change of locking the device driver in IFF_OACTIVE state due to lost RX_COMPLETE interrupts (the LINUX driver mentions that problem).

I have installed the Walnut Creek's FreeBSD 2.1 on my hard disk (IDE) using ATAPI.FLP which I had downloaded from FreeBSD.org. During installation everything (use of my ATAPI CDROM) were OK. However after installation my cdrom is not recognized even I have uncommented options ATAPI and device wcd0 in the configuration file (GENERIC) and compiled the kernel. ATAPI.FLP worked fine, I wanted to let you know. Any advice for the rest ?

FreeBSD is also installed somewhere. >Description: The sixth last line of the printf(3) manpage says "Because sprintf() and vsprintf() assume an infinitely long string, callers must be careful not to overflow the actual space; this is often impossible to assure." The last statement in the quote is a patent lie, as the following code will readily demonstrate. It is never impossible to assure that sprintf() and vsprintf() do not overflow the actual space available to them. cut here------> #include #include /* main (); */ /* "... no type or storage class" :( */ signed int Vasprintf (char **, char *, ...); main () { char * string; int n; n = Vasprintf (&string, "FaVe%d%d%sDeAl", 2355, 1235, "asase"); printf ("The string \"%s\" occupies %d chars.\n", string, n); _exit (-7); } signed int Vasprintf (char **ret, char * template, ...) /* You didn't actually expect me to turn this into avsprintf(), did you!? */ { va_list xargs; int sockets[2], child; FILE *tf; int retlen; if (pipe(sockets) < 0) { perror ("Can't create pipe"); exit (10); } va_start (xargs, template); if (tf = fdopen (sockets[1], "w")) { retlen = vfprintf (tf, template, xargs); } else { perror ("Can't open stream"); exit (1); } va_end (xargs); if (!(*ret = (char *) malloc (retlen + 1))) perror ("Malloc failure (out of memory?)"); if (!*ret) exit (666); /* who really reads exit codes, anyways? */ /* we now know how many chars are to be printed. Let's DO IT! */ if (vsprintf (*ret, template, xargs) != retlen) { printf ("AHHH!!! The printf(3) manpages is correct!!\n"); exit (777); } return retlen; } /* sockets? close what sockets? */ <------end cutting here No matter what format string we hand Vasprintf() from main(), it [Vasprintf()] will return the number of characters we need to alloc for sprintf() and vsprintf() thus allowing us to prevent them from "overflowing the actual space" (printf(3)) available to them. >How-To-Repeat: I don't know. >Fix: Change the sentence starting on the sixth line of the printf(3) manpage to "Because sprintf() and vsprintf() assume an infinitely long string, callers must be careful not to overflow the actual space; this often requires a silly function to prevent from happening." >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: From owner-freebsd-bugs Sat Jun 8 23:49:31 1996 Return-Path: owner-bugs Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id XAA04492 for bugs-outgoing; Sat, 8 Jun 1996 23:49:31 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from joerg@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id XAA04464; Sat, 8 Jun 1996 23:49:29 -0700 (PDT) Date: Sat, 8 Jun 1996 23:49:29 -0700 (PDT) From: Joerg Wunsch Message-Id: <199606090649.XAA04464@freefall.freebsd.org> To: ac199@freenet.hamilton.on.ca, joerg, freebsd-bugs Subject: Re: docs/1303 Sender: owner-bugs@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Synopsis: printf(3) manpage lies patently State-Changed-From-To: open-closed State-Changed-By: joerg State-Changed-When: Sun Jun 9 08:45:45 MET DST 1996 State-Changed-Why: Slightly reworded in rev 1.5 of printf.3.
