I made, what I thought, was a simple suggestion that I thought might help a lot of people. As I don't have much time these days to do any development for FreeBSD (a fact I very much regret BTW), I thought at least I could contribute an idea. I apologize to anyone who felt I was whining about the state of affairs. I was just trying to use myself as a case in point. I thought, since this is a volunteer effort, that people should feel it was their place, indeed their responsibily, to contribute however they could. I didn't have any bug reports to submit or code to donate, so I donated a thought. My only concern was for the future of the project. In the future, I'll try to be less concerned. -Ben Greenwald To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Sun Feb 7 00:32:27 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA23178 for freebsd-stable-outgoing; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 00:32:27 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from enaila.nidlink.com (enaila.nidlink.com [216.18.128.8]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA23172 for ; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 00:32:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sworkman@nidlink.com) Received: from nidlink.com (pm3d2-10.nidlink.com [216.18.131.65]) by enaila.nidlink.com (8.9.0/8.9.0) with ESMTP id AAA15229 for ; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 00:32:22 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <36BD5017.61683D63@nidlink.com> Date: Sun, 07 Feb 1999 00:34:31 -0800 From: Shawn Workman X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.08 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.0-STABLE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: make world error References: <36BD4843.2751D0DE@nidlink.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Since it errored out so quickly I just ran make install and reinstalled my previous world..

If you got a little less confrontational, and a little less defensive, it is very likely that more people will listen to you. Remember, what the project needs a _lot_ of is volunteers contributing bug reports, bug fixes and _code_. There are very many users out there with cute ideas and no implementation plan, compared with the relatively small number of developers who do the actual work in their _free_time_. Your concern for the project can best be implemented as "real work", rather than "chirping from the sideline". Ideas are like @$$holes, everybody has one, and nobody is interested in the next guy's.

By "dedicated", I assume you mean what FreeBSD calls "dangerously dedicated". This way of doing things simply does not work with boot managers.

Most of these well known names have their own, 'improved' BIOS. They do more sanity checks on everything, which in some rare cases can make life easier and 'safer', but in most cases they are a nuisance. There are other ways to get problems with a Compaq BIOS than DD, eg a brand new unpartitioned disk :( there are ways around those problems, but it can be a real nuisance even if you're just installing win95 (as if win95 alone wasn't enough of a nuisance) So if it doesn't work, it's not because DD is a bad (or wrong) thing, but the BIOS checks for something it just should not check (ie it should only look at the signature on the master boot record, and if it is ok, it should load it without any further tests). Those 'well known' names should fix their broken BIOSes, as they've always caused problems with non-dos (=fat16) OSes (yes, even win95b with fat32 was a problem with some vendors BIOS). You've been warned that DD may not work for you, and no one foces you to use it. You know which BIOSes are likely not to work with it, and there actually are cases where it can make one's life easier :) Sorry if this was a bit too loud, but I just don't want to see DD go away.

Actually, of all the mailings that have been sent out on this subject, I think mine was the least confrontational. I was simply trying to state how I felt about the tendency of the people in this project to discount new ideas as complaints and to discount users who aren't also developers. After all, it is the common users that choose to become the developers. If they end up feeling burned by FreeBSD, they aren't likely to choose to donate to it. They'll just order their free copy of Solaris. At least they'll have someone to call with their problems that won't talk down to them. -Ben Greenwald To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Sun Feb 7 11:17:22 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA00275 for freebsd-stable-outgoing; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 11:17:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from medianstrip.net (chlojolo.ne.mediaone.net [24.128.145.127]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA00264 for ; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 11:17:15 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mike@medianstrip.net) Received: from mike.medianstrip.net (mike.medianstrip.net [10.0.0.3]) by medianstrip.net (Postfix) with ESMTP for id 8521F14AFB; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 14:17:13 -0500 (EST) Received: by mike.medianstrip.net (Postfix, from userid 1000) id 9D3AE36C7; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 14:17:12 -0500 (EST) Date: Sun, 7 Feb 1999 14:17:12 -0500 From: mike ryan To: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: DHCP Client??

The mailing lists refer to a patch I never found. i mailed the dhcp maintainer (mellon@hoffman.vix.com) about this and another minor bug back in june of '98 (with a url for the patch no less) and was told the bugs were fixed in 3.0 and he didn't have time to port the fixes back to 2.0. as far as i know, 3.0 still isn't available. heck, 2.0 is still in beta. haven't tried it yet, but it looks like the most recent beta release (10) includes code to initialize only the requested interfaces.

Using /stand/sysinstall, I 'upgraded' to the smallest 3.0 system to get the binaries. I downloaded the port-current and unpacked them. I cd'd to /usr/ports/net/cvsup to make all install. The cvsup install kindly noticed that my X11R6 was out of date, and updated it to 3.3.3; this was something I needed. I did a cvsup with cvs tag=RELENG_3 ( I also tried =. with the same result below) I performed a 'make world' which seemed to finish okay. [ This is not my main trouble report, but when I rebooted, I could not log in, as all my passwords were rejected. Readonly inspection of /etc/master.passwd revealed no visible problems. /stand/sysinstall would not let me set the root password unless I performed a minimal binary install again. This I did, and I had to delete my users from master.passwd and adduser them again. Luckily, there weren't too many yet, and now I can reboot and log in. ] NOW THE TROUBLE STARTS When I try to build a new kernel, the build crashes with references to syscons.o [ see APPENDIX below for screen dump ] I notice that this is coincident with the first paragraph of /usr/src/UPDATING, which says syscons is being reworked. I did the recommended 'make clean', which did not help. MY QUESTIONS ARE: 1. Am I the only one who can't build a kernel without these errors? 2. Is it possible to get a version without these errors? Also, I would like to have a new enough version of FreeBSD to have PCI device 'rl' supported. 3. Have I made some error or omission? Thank you for your attention, Wayne M.

Take this example from the handbook: To apply the deltas, simply say: cd /where/ever/you/want/the/stuff ctm -v -v /where/you/store/your/deltas/src-xxx.* What on earth is "/where/ever/you/want/the/stuff"? The "/where/you/store/your/deltas/" is obvious, but there's no explanation at all for the first directory. I think this is the only problem I have, because if when I run ctm it says that everything checks out okay, but I don't think it's in the right directory (i.e. I ran ctm in /usr/CTM, where I have the gzipped deltas, and the result sure doesn't look right). I think I just need a little more hand-holding than the documentation provides...

Being so frustrated and having been searched all possible literatures, I have to turn to this list at my last try. I have two network interfaces fxp0 and de0 on my machine. I used to use 2.2.6. Both cards worked fine. I cvsuped RELENG_3 and complied it sucessfully. However, after I configured rc.conf, compiled the kernel, reboot the machine, it died at the point: Doing networking initial work:hostname. After it happend several times, I commented out the ifconfig command in rc.network. The machine could boot then. I even had X-windows running. I tried to manually configure my network cards by typing: ifconfig lo0 inet * ifconfig de0 inet * netmask * ifconfig fxp0 inet * netmask * However, "ifconfig fxp0" killed the machine. I lost keyboard. I tried to uncomment the lines in rc.network and left only network_interfaces="lo0". Still , rebooting died at the ifconfig point. I donot know what caused the problem. I used /usr/obj/elf/usr/src/usr.sbin/config/config configured the kernel. Does it matter? I am will very grateful if somebody could give me a hint. --Xiaowei To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Sun Feb 7 21:56:13 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id VAA16880 for freebsd-stable-outgoing; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 21:56:13 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from david.siemens.de (david.siemens.de [192.35.17.14]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id VAA16868 for ; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 21:56:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from andre.albsmeier@mchp.siemens.de) X-Envelope-Sender-Is: andre.albsmeier@mchp.siemens.de (at relayer david.siemens.de) Received: from salomon.siemens.de (salomon.siemens.de [139.23.33.13]) by david.siemens.de (8.9.2/8.9.2) with ESMTP id GAA24737 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 06:55:59 +0100 (MET) Received: from curry.mchp.siemens.de (curry.mchp.siemens.de [146.180.31.23]) by salomon.siemens.de (8.9.2/8.9.2) with ESMTP id GAA28053 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 06:56:00 +0100 (MET) Received: (from daemon@localhost) by curry.mchp.siemens.de (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA03067 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 06:56:01 +0100 (CET) Date: Mon, 8 Feb 1999 06:55:59 +0100 From: Andre Albsmeier To: Rico Pajarola Cc: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG, Andre Albsmeier Subject: Re: Fully Dedicated HD may clobber some BIOS' Message-ID: <19990208065559.A16209@internal> References: <3.0.32.19990207170425.0092c9e0@shrike.overmind.ch> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.1i In-Reply-To: <3.0.32.19990207170425.0092c9e0@shrike.overmind.ch>; from Rico Pajarola on Sun, Feb 07, 1999 at 05:04:30PM +0100 Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Sun, 07-Feb-1999 at 17:04:30 +0100, Rico Pajarola wrote: > At 14:54 99.02.07 +0100, Andre Albsmeier wrote: > >Just to add it for reference: Machines from our company (Siemens) also don't > >work with dangerously dedicated disks :-( They have a thing called Phoenix > >BIOS and I have got plenty of them... > > > >Interesting, all these "well known" names (Compaq, HP, Siemens) seem to have > >problems with it... > Most of these well known names have their own, 'improved' BIOS.

Take this example from the handbook: :: ::To apply the deltas, simply say: :: :: cd /where/ever/you/want/the/stuff :: ctm -v -v /where/you/store/your/deltas/src-xxx.* :: :: ::What on earth is "/where/ever/you/want/the/stuff"? The ::"/where/you/store/your/deltas/" is obvious, but there's no explanation at ::all for the first directory. :: ::I think this is the only problem I have, because if when I run ctm it says ::that everything checks out okay, but I don't think it's in the right ::directory (i.e. I ran ctm in /usr/CTM, where I have the gzipped deltas, and ::the result sure doesn't look right). I think I just need a little more ::hand-holding than the documentation provides... Thanks, You have to create your own "/where/ever/you/want/the/stuff" directory and apply yor deltas. For example, # mkdir /usr/src/3.0-STABLE # cd /usr/src/3.0-STABLE # ctm -v /where/you/store/your/deltas/src-3.* or # mkdir /usr/src/3.0-STABLE # cd /where/you/store/your/deltas # ctm -v -b /usr/src/3.0-STABLE src-3.* If your are starting off from some where in a huge tree, you could use the "src-*00xEmpty.gz" file. For example, # mkdir /usr/src/what-ever # cd /where/you/store/your/deltas Now, get src-*.??00xEmpty.gz and following src-*.????.gz files. Then, # ctm -v -b /usr/src/what-ever src-*.??00xEmpty.gz # ctm -v -b /usr/src/what-ever src-*.????.gz Hope this helps.

If I've correctly figured out what happened, then it's more than just "big-name" systems. My SuperMicro box lost the boot blocks on reboot a couple of times (seems to be related to booting with a floppy in the drive). I suspect it was the anti-virus feature of the BIOS writing a "good" MBR onto the drive. I've since disabled that feature, but not tried booting with a floppy in the drive again. Since the system came from a FreeBSD systems integration house, I'm sort of surprised they left that feature on. Then again, they may not have expected me to install 3.0-RELEASE as a DD system.

My cards seem to work now. Both 2.2.6 and 2.2.7 donot have this problem. My machine used to work under 2.2.6 without enabling PCI bus-mastering and I have another hardware identical machine running 2.2.7 with fxp0 and de0 without PCI bus-mastering.

I am doing some final beta testing before releasing a new version of CVSup. When you run your next CVSup update from a FreeBSD mirror site, you may find that it spews out a whole bunch of "SetAttrs" messages. Or, maybe not. :-) It depends on a lot of things. Anyway, don't be alarmed. The new version is stricter about the way it preserves file permissions. The first time you update from a server using the new version, it may do a lot of SetAttrs to correct the information in its "checkouts" files. You won't see it again on subsequent updates.

After that, unmounting the device is not possible. A diskette can be manually ejected for removing the write protection, but a MO disk (I suppose that the same would happen using a ZIP) cannot be ejected :-(. My next action is remount R/O (mount -u -r) the device: more kernel messages.

It won't matter what's in your MBR; the virus will overwrite it anyway.

It was an eventful upgrade so I thought I'd share a few points. I have two FreeBSD machines, one running continuously, acting as internet gateway, mail server, news server etc. and one that spends a lot of its time in Windows. The dual booting machine has only a fairly small FreeBSD partition and mounts /home & /usr/local via NFS. Good News: ------------- A worthy upgrade! Softupdates is great! A massive speed increase in creating the large xover databases netscape likes to make when opening a new news group! I don't know if it is my imagination but I certainly feel a general system speedup in interactive useage. My Soundblaster PCI64 works! Bad News: ----------- It's a pain to retreive ft.c and co from the Attic and repatch support for floppy tape. It's only a couple of fairly independent files so I still don't understand why it can't stay in the tree.... Install Problems and suggestions for improvements: --------------------------------------------------- (1) NFS Install The initial make aout-to-elf-build was conducted on the server machine. After it was finished I booted the dual-boot machine and attempted a make aout-to-elf-install of the sources and obj files that were nfs mounted from the server. Slow .... slow .... slow... Every file operation took ages, after going to bed and looking at the machine 10 hours later it still wasn't finished! (I guess it could be related to some of these other messages about NFS install problems, it seems in that case to be 2.2.8 related as both machines were running that whilst attempting to install) I ended up Ctrl-Cing the make and thus got an unbootable machine, as would be expected... (2) Compile problems I reinstalled a clean/minimal 2.2.8 sytem on the client and started a make aout-to-elf-build. I tried this with -j4 flags to speed things up, set the nfs client cache etc. Unfortunately the machine rebooted somewhere in the middle of the process. Didn't see the message so I'm not sure if it was a H/W related problem (the client is a 300A running at 450Mhz and is normally quite stable) or some NFS related bug. Cleaned up and recompiled. (3) NFS Install #2 The second time I attempted to install I mounted /usr/src and /usr/obj async,noatime on the server, and noatime on the client. Installed perfectly... can it have been as a result of the options I used? (4) Move of aout libraries The aout-to-elf install target wants to move all libraries into an aout subdirectory, in my case, with a 2.2.8 server with /usr/local I did not want to move the libraries on /usr/local and /usr/X11R6. It would be nice if the script allowed one to prune the list of libraries being moved. (5) Hung make in kernel compile Whilst compiling the new 3.0 generic kernel cc hung whilst compiling aicxxxx (?) and I had to kill the make. Not sure what could have caused that (As a side note I have rebuilt the kernel 6 times in the last couple of days without any other hangs...) Could this also be hardware? (6) Booting 2.2.8 kernel is not healthy! I rebooted the machine with my old 2.2.8 kernel and then discovered that I could not mount any file systems.... it seems that the 3.0 mount uses new syscalls that aren't supported in 2.2.8. I thought I was stuffed until I saw /stand/mount_nfs, managed to nfs mount my home directories, copy a 2.2.8 mount bin there and I was up and running. Maybe a 2.2.8 version of mount could be saved during the upgrade? Or perhaps mount could be made compatible with both new and old kernels? To sum it all up, once installed 3.0 is a nice upgrade! Thanks for all of your efforts.

Actually I'm seeing the same, but my network connection is through the ISDN card. I was suspecting the problem to be in isdn4bsd, but now this got me thinking. I usually see the problem when I just connected to the internet and my mail starts flowing in (I use UUCP over TCP) and I start a SSH session at the same time (so I get a lot of network _and_ disk traffic). I was trying to debug this, but it is really hard, because I'm always working under X and I don't see anything on the console and don't get a kernel crash dump at all. One of these days I'll borrow a terminal and make the serial port the console. But for now, I don't have the slightest idea on how to go about debugging this.

I was getting reboots under 3.0-RELEASE, almost always when the daily scripts run. One of these reboots was directly preceeded by some disk errors (disk and controller are new) that showed up in /var/log/messages. I haven't seen anything since a cvsup and 'make world' on Saturday, Feb 6. This may be an unrelated hardware problem, don't know yet.

At least I don't get *ANYTHING* in any log file. If it was a bad disk, I'd notice. And meanwhile I have already replaced the disk with a bigger one and I don't think both disks are bad. I still suspect either a problem with the ed0 driver or with 486-CPU support (which after a quick scan of the relevant kernel cvs log files seems basically unchaged from 2.2.8).

Ok, I looked at your dmesg output, here is what you have in common with my box: > vga0: rev 0x54 int a irq 9 on pci0.16.0 > vga0 at 0x3b0-0x3df maddr 0xa0000 msize 131072 on isa My box says this: > vga0: rev 0x53 int a irq 11 on pci0.11.0 > vga0 at 0x3b0-0x3df maddr 0xa0000 msize 131072 on isa Ok, so we seem to be using a simmilar graphic card. What are the other guys having this problem using? If the others are not using S3 Trio cards, then it does not seem to be a hardware problem, because this is the only common hardware that I have with Petri. Next: software. I'm running qmail, sshd, isdnd (for ISDN) and X (login through xdm, WindowMaker window manager). Bug can be triggered by starting up an ISDN connection to my ISP, which starts a UUCP over TCP download, then at the same time I usually run a cvsup and also ssh. The machine sponteously reboots a couple of seconds after the ISDN connection is established. Another idea: here is my kernel configuration file. Others having problems please mail me your kernel configuration files (private mail, to not clutter this mailing list). I _do_ have softupdates turned on. Notice that I have recently removed ed0 and added DDB to my kernel config file and I don't yet know any impact this will have on the problem. machine "i386" cpu "I486_CPU" ident GOLD maxusers 32 options INET #InterNETworking options FFS #Berkeley Fast Filesystem options FFS_ROOT #FFS usable as root device [keep this!] options "COMPAT_43" #Compatible with BSD 4.3 options UCONSOLE #Allow users to grab the console options USERCONFIG #boot -c editor options VISUAL_USERCONFIG #visual boot -c editor options SYSVSHM options SYSVSEM options SYSVMSG options AHC_ALLOW_MEMIO options "VM86" options SOFTUPDATES options "TEL_S0_16_3" options "P1003_1B" options "_KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING" options "_KPOSIX_VERSION=199309L" options KTRACE options INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE # Include this file in kernel config kernel root on da1 controller isa0 controller pci0 controller fdc0 at isa? port "IO_FD1" bio irq 6 drq 2 disk fd0 at fdc0 drive 0 controller ahc0 controller scbus0 device da0 device cd0 device pass0 controller atkbdc0 at isa? port IO_KBD tty device atkbd0 at isa? tty irq 1 device vga0 at isa? port ? conflicts device sc0 at isa? tty pseudo-device splash device npx0 at isa? port "IO_NPX" irq 13 device sio0 at isa? port "IO_COM1" tty irq 4 device sio1 at isa? port "IO_COM2" tty irq 3 device sio2 at isa? port "IO_COM3" tty irq 5 device ed0 at isa? port 0x300 net irq 10 iomem 0xd8000 device isic0 at isa? port 0xd80 net irq 12 flags 3 controller ppbus0 controller vpo0 at ppbus? device nlpt0 at ppbus? device plip0 at ppbus? controller ppc0 at isa? port ? tty irq 7 pseudo-device loop pseudo-device ppp 2 pseudo-device sppp 4 pseudo-device tun 1 pseudo-device pty 16 pseudo-device ether pseudo-device bpfilter 4 pseudo-device streams pseudo-device "i4bq921" pseudo-device "i4bq931" pseudo-device "i4b" pseudo-device "i4btrc" 4 pseudo-device "i4bctl" pseudo-device "i4brbch" 4 pseudo-device "i4btel" 2 pseudo-device "i4bipr" 4 pseudo-device "i4bisppp" 4 Next try: Does anyone who is seeing the problem have another box available that he could use as a serial console (to catch any possible messages displayed on the console)?

I grabbed packages-2.2.8-stable, which seems to be the latest/greatest packages for the branch. However, I've noticed that it is missing several packages. I.e., it does not have ImageMagick (which I plucked from the packages-2.2.8 tree). Also, on releng22.freebsd.org, there is a releng22/packages tree. This is different from all the packages trees on ftp.freebsd.org. However, it has some packages otherwise not found. Can anyone lend me some insight on this?

It is an ISA video card. I never have problems with my PII-333 running a Diamond Viper 550 AGP and an Asante PCI 10BaseT ethernet card. This machine rarely runs ssh but it usually had sshd running. The rogue machine (reboots) also uses sshd. That is the only comparison I see between your comments and my hardware/software. I suspect the problem is rooted deeper in the networking code and is not directly hardware related. One thing that does seem to be common is the fact that some sort of networking is going on, but then again, that would be a rare case when that wasn't true. However, a dial-up connection may have a much longer period of time go by before the problem manifested itself. Higher bandwidth could certainly trip this up faster. However, I can say that the reboot ALWAYS occurrs with network activity, either on initial connects, prolonged activity or intense activity. Doesn't seem to be anything else. Perhaps a combination of similar hardware and networking or something.

Ok, I looked at your dmesg output, here is what you have in common with my box: > vga0: rev 0x54 int a irq 9 on pci0.16.0 > vga0 at 0x3b0-0x3df maddr 0xa0000 msize 131072 on isa My box says this: > vga0: rev 0x53 int a irq 11 on pci0.11.0 > vga0 at 0x3b0-0x3df maddr 0xa0000 msize 131072 on isa Ok, so we seem to be using a simmilar graphic card. What are the other guys having this problem using? If the others are not using S3 Trio cards, then it does not seem to be a hardware problem, because this is the only common hardware that I have with Petri. Next: software. I'm running qmail, sshd, isdnd (for ISDN) and X (login through xdm, WindowMaker window manager). Bug can be triggered by starting up an ISDN connection to my ISP, which starts a UUCP over TCP download, then at the same time I usually run a cvsup and also ssh. The machine sponteously reboots a couple of seconds after the ISDN connection is established. Another idea: here is my kernel configuration file. Others having problems please mail me your kernel configuration files (private mail, to not clutter this mailing list). I _do_ have softupdates turned on. Notice that I have recently removed ed0 and added DDB to my kernel config file and I don't yet know any impact this will have on the problem. machine "i386" cpu "I486_CPU" ident GOLD maxusers 32 options INET #InterNETworking options FFS #Berkeley Fast Filesystem options FFS_ROOT #FFS usable as root device [keep this!] options "COMPAT_43" #Compatible with BSD 4.3 options UCONSOLE #Allow users to grab the console options USERCONFIG #boot -c editor options VISUAL_USERCONFIG #visual boot -c editor options SYSVSHM options SYSVSEM options SYSVMSG options AHC_ALLOW_MEMIO options "VM86" options SOFTUPDATES options "TEL_S0_16_3" options "P1003_1B" options "_KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING" options "_KPOSIX_VERSION=199309L" options KTRACE options INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE # Include this file in kernel config kernel root on da1 controller isa0 controller pci0 controller fdc0 at isa? port "IO_FD1" bio irq 6 drq 2 disk fd0 at fdc0 drive 0 controller ahc0 controller scbus0 device da0 device cd0 device pass0 controller atkbdc0 at isa? port IO_KBD tty device atkbd0 at isa? tty irq 1 device vga0 at isa? port ? conflicts device sc0 at isa? tty pseudo-device splash device npx0 at isa? port "IO_NPX" irq 13 device sio0 at isa? port "IO_COM1" tty irq 4 device sio1 at isa? port "IO_COM2" tty irq 3 device sio2 at isa? port "IO_COM3" tty irq 5 device ed0 at isa? port 0x300 net irq 10 iomem 0xd8000 device isic0 at isa? port 0xd80 net irq 12 flags 3 controller ppbus0 controller vpo0 at ppbus? device nlpt0 at ppbus? device plip0 at ppbus? controller ppc0 at isa? port ? tty irq 7 pseudo-device loop pseudo-device ppp 2 pseudo-device sppp 4 pseudo-device tun 1 pseudo-device pty 16 pseudo-device ether pseudo-device bpfilter 4 pseudo-device streams pseudo-device "i4bq921" pseudo-device "i4bq931" pseudo-device "i4b" pseudo-device "i4btrc" 4 pseudo-device "i4bctl" pseudo-device "i4brbch" 4 pseudo-device "i4btel" 2 pseudo-device "i4bipr" 4 pseudo-device "i4bisppp" 4 Next try: Does anyone who is seeing the problem have another box available that he could use as a serial console (to catch any possible messages displayed on the console)?

But why don't other people see the problem? Our configurations (hardware or software) mus thave something in common that triggers the problem and I'm trying to pinpoint that.

I get a bunch of accesses to the drive, then input/ouput errors, then it refuses to unmount the drive. Once the drive has been mounted, it can never get unmounted, the only way to unmount the drive is to remove the disk, turn off write protection, then unmount. Why is this? It shouldn't be trying to write to the disk on an unmount, especially since no changes have been attempted, and no directories have been viewed. It is like the drive isn't getting it's input/output buffers reset, or possibly when the drive is mounted the input/output buffers are getting marked dirty??? I haven't looked at code, but what has changed in the last month??

I had uptimes of over 30 days on 2.2.8. Now it's usually one or two days. The crash is typical: I walk up to the machine, hit "shift" to unblank the screen. After the monitor warms up, the text login screen appears (no xdm), with the solid white cursor after "login: " as it should be. However, a blinking underline cursor appears in the top left corner. After I type a few more keys, which don't echo, the machine reboots. I've never seen any messages (/var/log/messages has nothing unusual either). The machine is almost completely inactive. However, during the night, cron does the usual things, plus at 5 AM copies a large (40-80 MB) tarball from a remote site using scp (the ssh version of rcp). I have DDB & DDB_UNATTENDED in my kernel file, but I don't see any kernel core files. Where are these supposed to appear? Root level? I'm running sshd, apache, natd with two 3C509 boards, all very low load. If anyone wants more info or has debugging suggestions, please go ahead. I'd love to get some stability back. -- Richard ---------------------------- Richard Kiss 140 Locksunart Way #8 Sunnyvale, CA, 94087 (408) 481-9621 richard@homemail.com http://www.ogopogo.net/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Tue Feb 9 12:25:53 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA02023 for freebsd-stable-outgoing; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 12:25:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from silver.sms.fi (silver.sms.fi [194.111.122.17]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id MAA02012 for ; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 12:25:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from pete@silver.sms.fi) Received: (from pete@localhost) by silver.sms.fi (8.9.2/8.7.3) id WAA89537; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 22:25:30 +0200 (EET) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Date: Tue, 9 Feb 1999 22:25:30 +0200 (EET) From: Petri Helenius To: "Thomas T.

I am running the machine fine, I run setup, install, add packages and recompile the kernel. Upon reboot, any changes that I made to ethernet cards remain so all is fine. However, I then go into rc.conf.site (where did this come from anyway? Why can't we just edit rc.conf like usual??) change a few values, and reboot. Upon reboot all the stuff is reset to defaults and I have lost my initial configuration. It is almost like the thing is reading it's defaults from /etc/rc.conf, and writing its results to rc.conf.site? Anyone else see this happening?

Please see the archives from the recent weekend (onward); that's been a topic of much discussion of late. There's also an /etc/rc.conf.local that will be sourced, as well (if it exists) by default.

If you are a commiter or a networking guru, even better. :) Please send the above data, even if you have already responded to the "Spontaneous reboots" thread on this mailing list. I'm trying to compile a list of hardware and software configurations that experience the problem and see if there is something in common between them. If we want to fix the problem, we at least need a starting point. For now it looks like it is a problem with the networking code, so please send a description of what network activity is going on when you experience the reboots. I will summarize the responses I receive. Also if you have a good idea how we could attack the problem, please speak up. For now my idea is to find a common software and hardware configuration and then try to sistematically remove components that could cause the problem. I have separetely posted this message to both freebsd-current and freebsd-stable, as it seems to affect both branches. Please DO NOT respond to the mailing list. Thank you for your attention.

I had crash dumps disabled, and there was no hint in /var/log/messages about why it rebooted. So I enabled crash dumps by setting dumpdev="/dev/da0s1b" in rc.conf. The next time the machine rebooted, I happened to have a video display connected to it and I happened to be nearbuy, and I saw the error message 'page fault in kernel mode" (or something similar). I had to run elsewhere while this was going on, so I missed the display during the filesystem sync and reboot that followed. Later I checked /var/log/messages and the only unusual thing I saw was the error message: savecore: no core dump and no other mention of any reason for the crash dump. I checked rc.conf and so far as I can tell crash dumps are enabled, and savecore goes to /var/crash, and there is 300 M free on it, and /var/crash/minfree says '2048'. I typed 'sysctl kern.dumpdev' and got 'kern.dumpdev: { major = 4, minor = 131073 }' which indicates that crash dumps are definitely enabled. I did 'ls -l /dev/da0s1b' (since da0s1b is my swap and dump device) and got: brw-r----- 1 root operator 4, 0x00020001 Jan 25 20:11 /dev/da0s1b which I think matches the output from sysctl above. da0s1b has 512M while physical memory is only 256M, so there should be plenty of space for the crash dump. More later if/when I get more info. BTW, SunOS does not require crash dumps to be enabled in order to find out the reason for the crash. SunOS logs a kernel backtrace into /var/log/messages after each panic. I don't think FreeBSD does. It would be nice if the panic message and a stack dump could be saved whether or not a full crash dump is being saved. Rahul > Date: Tue, 09 Feb 99 08:28:31 CST > From: "Thomas T.

And I don't believe there was any messages, because the reboot was so quick, that even if I would not run X, I could not see any message (the reboots appear almost as if someone would press the reset button, i.e. in one moment I'm typing something and in the middle of me typing something the messages BIOS greeting messages appear).

Since I haven't done this in a long time now, though, I can only describe the process in very general terms. First, go to the appropriate /usr/src directories, and recompile the utilities in question with "-g". Install the new versions, run, and, when the program hands, start gdb and attach the desired process. You'll have to read on gdb documentation about attaching processes, but, then again, you'll have to read on gdb documentation anyhow (or, if you are already familiar with gdb, you probably won't have trouble finding the part about attaching processes). BTW, do you use -O2 or above when making world? If so, you better just recompile it with -O first, since that may be the source of the trouble. -- Daniel C.

Just a thought: Petri Helenius (pete@sms.fi) posted his dmesg last tuesday. I noticed it had the following lines: de0 XXX: driver didn't set ifq_maxlen lo0 XXX: driver didn't set ifq_maxlen I have never seen this on my systems, although I'm using both drivers. I do not suffer any reboots. Given the name of the parameter (ifq_maxlen) I can imagine that it could cause problems when there is any network load. Maybe in relation with bpfilter... Anyway; I don't know if it is related (probably not), but I thought it would be good to draw attention to it. marcel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Wed Feb 10 05:31:21 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA26011 for freebsd-stable-outgoing; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 05:31:21 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from spoon.beta.com (mcgovern.ne.mediaone.net [24.218.8.93]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id FAA25998 for ; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 05:31:19 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mcgovern@spoon.beta.com) Received: from spoon.beta.com (localhost.beta.com [127.0.0.1]) by spoon.beta.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA18723 for ; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 08:32:32 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from mcgovern@spoon.beta.com) Message-Id: <199902101332.IAA18723@spoon.beta.com> To: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Spontaneous Reboots Date: Wed, 10 Feb 1999 08:32:32 -0500 From: "Brian J.

I got repeated panics. I tore apart and reassembled the machine after getting POed, and also turned off the bridging and ifconfig ed0 down. Without ed0 no crashes (up 8 days). Other people have reported having ed0 in common with these crashes. I have had no trouble with the wb0 card alone. Ed0 is directly connected to an empty hub; wb0 is connected directly to a windoze machine with a crossover cable. Could the problem be related to all transmit and no receive on ed0? ed0 worked fine when it was connected to my windoze machine (instead of wb0). I have reason to suspect ed0 because the machine only crashed when winamp downloaded a mp3 through samba. It never crashed when it was local, or when I used the bsd machine's console instead of the windows machine as an xterminal. This weekend or next time i have time to burn 4 hours beating on this thing if it doesn't want to behave, I'll try rebooting with ed0 enabled after installing a replacement CPU fan. I'll report the presence or absense of crashes with or without ed0/bridging.

So i have one question to Core Team Developer (sorry if this question is too stupid, please, dont kill for this) Q: Why not develop some thing like QNX ? A Real Time OS for Free and as good as QNX(i believe that the core team will need to be as good as QNX TEAM) would be a killer!!!!!!!!!! As i saw in a zine: QNX is not UNIX, is better!!!!!!!!!!!!

The advantage in going to ELF like everyone else seems to do allows using up-to-date binaries tools, so that is a big improvement. Sidenote; we have been running FreeBSD for quite a while, so I quickly did some counting on our /usr/local/bin to see how much I would appreciate keeping backwards compatibility around. We have total of 1150 links in /usr/local/bin. Some of those are symlinks, but I do not think that makes that much difference. Out of that we have the following distribution by year: Year Files % 1998 275 23.91 (includes 1999) 1997 363 31.56 1996 191 16.60 1995 255 22.17 1994 61 5.30 1993 5 0.43 ---------------------- total 1150 100.00 1993 binaries are known by file to be NetBSD binaries. I think we started by using early NetBSD and switched over to 1.1.x somewhere around 1993-1994. >From the oldest binaries I think some are such that there is no more sources available, it does not compile any more or new version now requires something we do not have like motif. I guess we can cope without things like "mosaic.2.0", so that probably would not be that much an issue. These binaries originate from several different hundred packages, so digging up all necessary source code the recompile them would be a quite an effort, as some older packages usually have tendency no to compile any more. Ports does not help too much as many ports seem to change defaults, which forces us to manually compile everything anyway and use ports as reference only. -- Heikki Suonsivu / Clinet Oy / Tekniikantie 12 / FI-02150 Espoo / FINLAND, hsu@clinet.fi mobile +358-40-5519679 work +358-9-43542270 fax -4555276 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Wed Feb 10 23:27:20 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA06256 for freebsd-stable-outgoing; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 23:27:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from relay.ucb.crimea.ua (relay.ucb.crimea.ua [212.110.138.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA06116 for ; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 23:25:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ru@ucb.crimea.ua) Received: (from ru@localhost) by relay.ucb.crimea.ua (8.9.2/8.9.2/UCB) id JAA37196; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 09:23:20 +0200 (EET) (envelope-from ru) Date: Thu, 11 Feb 1999 09:23:20 +0200 From: Ruslan Ermilov To: Jon-Pierre Stoermer Cc: FreeBSD Stable Subject: Re: Trouble upgrading to 3.0-STABLE Message-ID: <19990211092320.A35708@ucb.crimea.ua> Mail-Followup-To: Jon-Pierre Stoermer , FreeBSD Stable References: <002801be551b$16262870$07e2a8ce@prometheus.aob.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.94.17i In-Reply-To: <002801be551b$16262870$07e2a8ce@prometheus.aob.org>; from Jon-Pierre Stoermer on Wed, Feb 10, 1999 at 10:30:43AM -0700 X-Operating-System: FreeBSD 3.0-STABLE i386 Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Wed, Feb 10, 1999 at 10:30:43AM -0700, Jon-Pierre Stoermer wrote: > Hey there- > I've read every possible piece of documentation that I could find > on this and I'm still having trouble.

(First off, I don't have a directory called /usr/src/usr.sbin/config, but I assume you mean wherever I have the source code - in my case, /usr/src/3.0-STABLE/usr.sbin/config.) The error message when I type "/usr/sbin/config [kernel]" says, "WARNING: version of config(8) does not match kernel! Config version = 300009, version required = 300007". I'm guessing this means that perhaps config is okay, but the kernel version is too old? Does this make sense? How would I fix this?

If I could fix one or other of these problems I would be much happier, I can dig into things and make small patches by hand I just can't get the box connected to the outside world (until I get home where there is a modem that is). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- >From Steve O'Hara-Smith On 11-Feb-99 At 11:31:29 Tell a computer to WIN and ... ...

Andreas may be a better nominee for this (making ntp 4.x the contrib'd version for 3.-stable), since he's the one currently maintaining the ntp 4.0.91 port. BTW, ntp 4 includes a couple of line disciplines designed for use by ntpd.

If one resorts to use the alternate algorithm for timecounter, things works. I don't recall how to do that, though. Also, it would seem that adding the apm driver to your kernel, or disactivating apm on your BIOS, also corrects the problem. In particular, one report, at least, was made of a BIOS in which the line "apm os" or "apm bios" set to deactivated did *not* really deactivate it, and another change had to be made to the BIOS to *really* deactivate it.

Hmm, the procedure of testing changes the object being tested. The problem disappears while ktracing the run. In the kdump I could see that the size of the last write to the audio file is exactly what is missing without ktrace. The last write is simply skipped. Then I compiled the whole thing for debugging. Synchronization between the parent (writing) process and the child (reading) process is managed with fifos. Just before the last write should be done the syncing function receives a SIGPIPE as it was trying to write to the pipe. At the time I don't know how this can happen.

X-Useless-Header: Look ma! It's a # sign! Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, given the 3.0-STABLE as of 1999-02-07, we experience the following panics. The situation is the following - the box was rarely up for more than 3-4 days since November (yes, I know there were fixes for ufs_dirbad() then) and it happens way strange way. It will hang (nothing but disk IO works, console doesn't respond, network connections get staled and so on) when pretty big swap quantity is being used actively (please find below the prepanic top results). More the uptime gets, more longer perionds of irresponsibilities get, and it would finally crash in 3 or 4 days with exactly the very same panic. I already changed all the disks during this period, reinstalled the / from 3.0-R -> 3.0-S on newly newfs'ed one and voila, nothing helps. last pid: 19449; load averages: 1.19, 0.96, 0.94 up 3+19:10:11 14:40:33 183 processes: 2 running, 179 sleeping, 2 stopped CPU states: 44.8% user, 0.0% nice, 18.4% system, 4.3% interrupt, 32.5% idle Mem: 183M Active, 8160K Inact, 48M Wired, 10M Cache, 8348K Buf, 784K Free Swap: 584M Total, 291M Used, 293M Free, 50% Inuse, 100K In, 128K Out PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE C TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND 17335 root 97 0 1328K 636K CPU0 0 15:26 51.90% 51.90% sshd1 19327 cvsup -18 0 2144K 1844K spread 0 0:25 30.13% 29.35% cvsupd 18967 cvsup -22 0 4420K 4016K vmpfw 0 0:46 8.40% 8.40% cvsupd 25299 root 2 -5 230M 88440K poll 0 146:47 6.15% 6.15% squid 17341 mishania 2 -5 844K 364K sbwait 0 1:43 4.39% 4.39% scp1 19344 root 26 -5 1740K 952K CPU1 1 0:02 4.53% 4.10% top 17459 ircd 2 0 42164K 30160K poll 1 209:53 3.17% 3.17% ircd 19362 squid 10 0 2940K 2632K nanslp 0 0:02 2.97% 2.34% perl 19149 cvsup 2 0 2900K 2512K select 1 0:13 1.27% 1.27% cvsupd 19000 cvsup 2 0 1900K 1604K select 1 0:29 0.78% 0.78% cvsupd 19425 root 2 0 596K 384K sbwait 1 0:00 0.27% 0.10% ftpd 19131 root 2 0 596K 388K sbwait 0 0:00 0.05% 0.05% ftpd 19427 root 2 0 612K 404K sbwait 0 0:00 0.19% 0.05% ftpd 19449 root 2 -5 744K 388K select 1 0:00 1.00% 0.05% tcptest 124 root 2 0 828K 340K select 0 26:35 0.00% 0.00% syslogd 839 mishania 2 -5 2828K 1336K select 1 5:33 0.00% 0.00% screen 25324 squid -6 -5 752K 176K piperd 0 5:01 0.00% 0.00% unlinkd gdb -k /var/crash/kernel.24 /var/crash/vmcore.24 initial pcb at 1fda28 panicstr: ufs_dirbad: bad dir panic messages: --- panic: ufs_dirbad: bad dir mp_lock = 01000001; cpuid = 1; lapic.id = 00000000 boot() called on cpu#1 syncing disks... 27 9 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 giving up dumping to dev 30401, offset 671744 dump 256 255 254 253 252 251 250 249 248 247 246 245 244 243 242 241 240 239 238 237 236 235 234 233 232 231 230 229 228 227 226 225 224 223 222 221 220 219 218 217 216 215 214 213 212 211 210 209 208 207 206 205 204 203 202 201 200 199 198 197 196 195 194 193 192 191 190 189 188 187 186 185 184 183 182 181 180 179 178 177 176 175 174 173 172 171 170 169 168 167 166 165 164 163 162 161 160 159 158 157 156 155 154 153 152 151 150 149 148 147 146 145 144 143 142 141 140 139 138 137 136 135 134 133 132 131 130 129 128 127 126 125 124 123 122 121 120 119 118 117 116 115 114 113 112 111 110 109 108 107 106 105 104 103 102 101 100 99 98 97 96 95 94 93 92 91 90 89 88 87 86 85 84 83 82 81 80 79 78 77 76 75 74 73 72 71 70 69 68 67 66 65 64 63 62 61 60 59 58 57 56 55 54 53 52 51 50 49 48 47 46 45 44 43 42 41 40 39 38 37 36 35 34 33 32 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 --- #0 0xf013efb3 in boot () (kgdb) where #0 0xf013efb3 in boot () #1 0xf013f26b in panic () #2 0xf019334e in ufs_dirbad () #3 0xf0192bf2 in ufs_lookup () #4 0xf0197b4d in ufs_vnoperate () #5 0xf015fff4 in vfs_cache_lookup () #6 0xf0197b4d in ufs_vnoperate () #7 0xf0162495 in lookup () #8 0xf0161faf in namei () #9 0xf0167c18 in lstat () #10 0xf01c2dc3 in syscall () #11 0x807f2 in ??

I would recommend you the following way of configuring PNP devices: Put the following lines into /boot/boot.conf: load kernel load -t userconfig_script /kernel.config autoboot Of course, you need only the second line if you already have a boot.conf filled with some commands. Put all the configuration commands you need into /kernel.config in the same way you type them when configuring the kernel. Here is my /kernel.config, for instance: pnp 1 0 os enable port0 0x220 port1 0x330 port2 0x388 drq0 3 drq1 5 irq0 5 pnp 1 1 os enable port0 0x200 drq0 4 drq1 4 pnp 1 2 os enable port0 0x620 port1 0xA20 port2 0xE20 drq0 4 drq1 4 quit And here we are! Notice that you don't even depend on kernel recompilation if you use this technique. -- /Voland Vadim Belman E-mail: voland@plab.ku.dk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Thu Feb 11 09:29:04 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA16168 for freebsd-stable-outgoing; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 09:29:04 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from jason03.u.washington.edu (jason03.u.washington.edu [140.142.77.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA16163 for ; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 09:29:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jcwells@u.washington.edu) Received: from saul7.u.washington.edu (root@saul7.u.washington.edu [140.142.82.2]) by jason03.u.washington.edu (8.9.2+UW99.01/8.9.2+UW99.01) with ESMTP id JAA12922; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 09:28:54 -0800 Received: from S8-37-26.student.washington.edu (S8-37-26.student.washington.edu [128.208.37.26]) by saul7.u.washington.edu (8.9.2+UW99.01/8.9.2+UW99.01) with ESMTP id JAA32183; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 09:28:53 -0800 (PST) Date: Thu, 11 Feb 1999 09:28:13 -0800 (PST) From: "Jason C.

You must then cd to the build directory and make depend; make; make install. There are good instructions for this in the handbook. Concepts in case I wasn't clear earlier: make world is seperate from a kernel build. make world is seperate from fetching the latest sources. The kernel config file is _not_ the kernel source code. The source is in /usr/src (yours is a bit different) Kernel source is in /usr/src/sys (yours is a bit different) Also a bit of netiquette, don't cross post your question.

Since you're already willing to completely re-load the box, how about you load it with 2.2.8. Unless there are some features in 3.0 you can't live without, it'd be interesting if 2.2.8 (or 2.2-STABLE) made your problems go away. It would isolate the hardware/software question, and perhaps give you a stable system in the meantime. -crl -- Chad R.

Yes, it works with 3.0-Stable and 3.1-Beta, but not very reliable. Rather often it causes very high system-loads on my machine and then hangs.

I've been doing some digging into the problem and I've got this far: a) There are two config tuples with the same ID in my card the default (which says 8 bit io with no specified port as well as all the power gubbins) and the next one in (which specifies port 0x300). I'm fairly sure I used to get the second but I can't document it so I could be wrong there, for now I've got pccardd hacked to skip configs with no io (this is probably wrong) what I'm going to do is back that out and specify another ID in my pccard.conf. Question: what should pccardd do with two config tuples with the same ID. b) The driver allocation fails with EINVAL over irq allocation, if I force (by hacking up allocate_driver) the right irq it all works. I haven't yet fully understood all the irq masking stuff but I think I'll get to the bottom of this by tracking the sources of the masks back to their origins. I also see no changes in the code I've been looking over for some time (and I've been tracking stable every few days for some time now). I can only conclude that something else in my configuration has changed lately without my noticing. >> 2: The floppy drive cannot be used once FreeBSD is up and running, >> it >> is recognised at boot time it even can be heard to do a seek to track zero >> as >> the driver initialises but attempt to access it from a prompt (dd, mount >> mdir >> anything) and the thing doesn't even spin up. > > Ack.

Small observation - I only noticed this because I couldn't get online so I wanted to use the floppy to move some sources from another machine. Weeks can go by without me using a floppy under normal conditions and I suspect I am not the only one. > Do you have an old kernel you can boot? Not on the right machine :(, but I now have a hacked one that will let me get things back in order :). I am happier and understand pccard handling much better now - much happier comes when I fully understand how this went wrong on me. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- >From Steve O'Hara-Smith On 12-Feb-99 At 08:54:52 Tell a computer to WIN and ... ...

Try configuring the driver for 0x240, and see if that works. It did for me. (At least for the port part.

It looks like an authentication problem, but I'm not sure. It shouldn't happen really, because usually the ppp connection comes up fine. Sometimes it keeps on failing however, and the only solution is to power cycle the modem. (a ZyXEL Elite 2864 ISDN) ATZ is not enough. It is a dial on demand connection, so it is really annoying that it sometimes won't work.

The problem is that it appears that I complete the installation of FreeBSD only to reboot and find myself at a "Boot:" prompt. After waiting for a few seconds at this prompt it automatically scrolls the screen displaying "Invalid Format!" and then the same information which appears to be a command options list for the "Boot:" prompt. I have already contacted freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG and the individual that responded was not able to resolve the problem. He in turn suggested I contact freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG. They in turn were mostly rude and referred me to this list. The version of FreeBSD that I am trying to install is: CD_VERSION = 3.0-19990209-STABLE I made the CD myself, by downloading the files under the -STABLE section. If needed I can provide a listing of the CD.

I am using -stable 3.0, and have soft updates installed. The stat(2) and read(2) docs say nothing about this condition. Reading from an empty file is an error, of course...

The problem was that it could not find ldconfig, which basically left me with a completely unusable system. I corrected by recopying the files back, then running after step 4: set PATH = (/{bin,sbin} /usr/{bin,sbin} /usr/local/{bin,sbin} /usr/X11R6/bin) Then continuing with step 5 and all went well, at least so far... :) Ben Gavin At 08:47 AM 2/12/99 -0800, you wrote: >There are a few things to watch for, especially since 3.x is now using an >elf kernel. > >Ruslan Ermilov has written an excellent step-by-step for >upgrading 2.2.8 to 3.x.

Well, we use FBSD 3.0-stable as a server OS for our double PII system and for the printserver, a small 486DX2-66 box with 32 MB RAM. After upgrading to 3.0-stable both systems turned into this crazy behavour of booting without any error messages, and on booth systems it seemed that the rhythmn of "rebooting" was about 60 or 70 minutes. When I started a rebuild of the system on the mainserver, this occurance of this obscure error came much faster than within the usual 60 minutes. The compiler died, the system stoped and rebooted. I fixed the problem by changing the value of an new kernel option. Well, I don't know whether this is the solution for the many similar problems reported here, but it fixed my problems! The new kernel option is options "PMAP_SHPGPERPROC=201" In LINT it is set to 201, default seems to be 200. Well, my understandings of kernel functionality is not clear and "enriched", but for the case I'm right: this option defines the value of "preallocated" pages for EACH process forked and started. The intention seems to be speeding up starts of processes on heavy duty servers with a lot of memory. We use 256MB RAM on our server and I played around with the option and pushed the value towards 288 - since then the system turned into spontanous reboots! Now I use a value of 208 for our system, and I decreased the value for our printserver - since then the crazy behaviour stopped. I hope this helps. Gruss O.

This really is the sort of thing that *should* have been dealt with on the -questions list (but that's hardly your fault). Try typing /boot/loader at the "Boot:" prompt. If that doesn't get you going, e-mail me off-line and we can probably get you up and running reasonably quickly. -- Robert Nordier To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Fri Feb 12 11:10:45 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA20741 for freebsd-stable-outgoing; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 11:10:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from server.amis.net (server.amis.net [195.10.52.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA20727 for ; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 11:10:41 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from blaz@gold.amis.net) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by server.amis.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with UUCP id UAA15505 for stable@FreeBSD.ORG; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 20:10:36 +0100 (CET) Received: (qmail 1520 invoked by uid 1000); 12 Feb 1999 19:10:09 -0000 Received: from localhost (sendmail-bs@127.0.0.1) by localhost with SMTP; 12 Feb 1999 19:10:09 -0000 Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 20:10:09 +0100 (CET) From: Blaz Zupan To: Ben Stuyts cc: stable@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: ppp problem In-Reply-To: <199902121209.NAA03283@giskard.stuyts.nl> 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 > Sometimes I have a problem connecting to my ISP.

They are so full of bugs that I'm wondering why you don't notice them crawling on your table. And you even prove that yourself with the statements above ("sometimes it keeps on failing and the only solution is to power cycle the modem"). If putting the 2846I into the trashbin is not an option, I would strongly suggest you check if there is a firmware update available.

Initially i hadn't installed the *ports collection* (HD space concerns) and decided i would install the ports i needed as time went on. When i first attempted to install vnc, it told me it 'couldn't find the make files.' Not even after rebooting. Also when i tried to cd to the directories where the 'make files' reside, /usr/share/mk AND /usrports/Mk the system responded "no such directory" Which now i am told has to be there or the system will NOT boot. In a last ditch effort to to install the 'vnc' port, I thot, "maybe i need something from the ports collection and started downloading it. While downloading the ports collection, a nick on irc said what i was doing shouldn't be necessary. so i aborted the download. And tried the 'make install' from /usr/ports/net/vnc yet again. Now it wants to work! Now that it seems it wants to work, the following is happening; I get the following error when i use the command 'make install' in the /usr/ports/net/vnc ports directory; /usr/bin/tar: archive EOf not on block boundary After searching the questions & Stable maillist archives, i have only found 2 hits with this error stated in them and no public posting of a response.

To get this you need to install the ports collection -or- grab that directory off of ftp. I recommend keeping the entire ports collection so that you stay up to date when little things like /usr/ports/Mk change. Catchya Later, | Give me UNIX or give me a typewriter.

I believe the conclusion is that 3.0-STABLE's MAKEDEV needs updating, or the makefiles need updating to update MAKEDEV Here's the story: My system won't boot at all. It has been fine, but I took it down to add another drive. I can read / and /etc/fstab and get the directory of /dev, all at the prompt #. The messages below are correct. /fstab refers to /dev/wd0s1a /dev/wd0s1e /dev/wd0s1f BUT! These files are indeed not there in /dev ! How could I have had the system up at all? Perhaps a sh MAKEDEV all that I performed wiped out these devices, and I haven't happened to have rebooted since then. [Boot messages .... can't stat /dev/wd0s1a: No such file or directory /dev/wd0s1a: CAN'T CHECK FILE SYSTEM UNEXPECTED INSCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY Automatic file system check failed ... help! ] Here's how I got out of this jam: # mount /dev/wd0s1 /usr # Now the / is writable as /usr # cd /usr/dev # This is really /dev # ./MAKEDEV wd0s1a chgrp: not found # Is this going to hurt me someday? # ls wd0* # all the slices a-g are there! # reboot I don't believe I'll do a 'MAKEDEV all' to repeat this, unless a developer asks me to suffer for data for the cause.

Perhaps I am just lucky. ;-) Can you provide more detail on how the install went. For any reason do you suspect that the install was not completed properly. For example, did it ask you for a root password, or to setup a user account. Where you asked if you wished to register your copy of FreeBSD. Those are some of the things that can be quickly recalled that occur when the installation process is completed and has worked properly. After install did the system reboot or did you have to reboot manually. Stay with it as it is worth while just to run FreeBSD.

It creates /var/run/ld-elf.so.hints just fine, and so all the elf binaries I just installed work fine. The problem is I cannot get it to create /var/run/ld.so.hints, and so I currently have no access to X or any of my ports! (At least the binary ones). I set up the ldconfig in rc.conf and I have also tried command line. Here is what my libraries look like: /usr/lib -> elf /usr/lib/aout -> aout /usr/local/lib -> aout /usr/local/lib/aout -> empty /usr/X11R6/lib -> aout /usr/X11R6/lib/aout -> empty. Just to clarify things, it does not even load /usr/lib/aout. Before I go and reinstall X and my ports from the ground up (Ugh!), is there something I am not doing, or did somebody screw up ldconfig recently?

I would assume that the 3.1 branch has the latest revisions though. If you are planning to do a source upgrade you will have an infinitely easier (not to mention safer) time goign to 2.2.8 than to 3.x because of the tremendous changes in the 3.x tree.

"3.0.0" (just 3.0, actually), at the date you mention, is *not* in the stable branch. That was on the current branch. 3.1-release, which should be out this week, is on the stable branch. Since the 2.x line is not going to receive further development, by all means you should go to 3.x-stable. BUT, wait until 3.1-release. > Here's my concern. I have this 3c905B-TX FastEtherlink XL card which > is at the moment not supported by 2.2.6, My concern is which of the > newer > releases provide better operation with this NIC. Unfortunately, I can't answer this question. But, if it is supported at all, it should be supported on the 3.x-stable branch. -- Daniel C.

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 Hi guys.. I suppose this could be a STABLE question because it is where I ended up, still having the same problem. I have sucessfully installed FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE on a Dual P166 machine with 32MB of RAM, an Adaptec 2940U SCSI controller and a 4GIG Seagate Baracuda drive. It ran fresh off of the FTP installation without problem. I have been trying to compile a custom kernel so I can have the dual processor support and I keep getting the output included at the end of this message. Please excuse the length. It doesn't seem to matter if I try to compile an ELF or a.out kernel. I thought I might have something wierd in /usr/src/sys so I ran cvsup and synched with the STABLE branch of the tree. Still, the same output. Does anyone have an idea what the problem could be?

If anyone used roughly the same sources (2 AM Easter, Saturday Feb. 13) and is getting ldconfig -aout to work, please tell me what you did, or should I update again and maybe it will work? I can continue updating packages manually, but so far none of the alternative browsers I have tried (primarily kfm and xemacs/w3) support the https protocal, among other things.

In-Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Unfortunately, I don't have an answer, but I have the exact same problem (different only as my kernel configuration is) with all the xpt and cam references undefined. I updated my sources with CTM (current up to yesterday, src-3.0020.gz). Not even GENERIC would 'make install' (though _that_ would 'make'). Trying to 'make install' GENERIC references me to http://www.freebsd.org/~peter/elfday.html, which in turn references me to http://www.freebsd.org/~rnordier/boot.txt. I'm hesitant to mess with any of the /boot stuff since my machine triple boots with 2 other MS OS's, which tend to be less lenient about booting than FreeBSD.
