Ahh. You're right. Thanks - I've never poked around the openafs code before (clearly :). Part of the problem is that the afs freebsd steps for building the .ko are copied from the i386 "way" and not the amd64 way, as defined in /usr/src/sys/conf/kmod.mk. i386 builds the .kld and then invokes LD -Bshareable to create the .ko; amd64 creates the .ko directly in the first pass. I may have implemented it wrong, but changing to this results in a huge slew of errors as well: Feb 18 12:48:48 moo kernel: kldload: unexpected relocation type 4 Feb 18 12:48:48 moo kernel: kldload: unexpected relocation type 9 Feb 18 12:48:48 moo kernel: kldload: unexpected relocation type 4 Feb 18 12:48:48 moo kernel: kldload: unexpected relocation type 4 (100+ times) Feb 18 12:48:48 moo kernel: link_elf_obj: symbol bzero undefined Feb 18 12:48:48 moo kernel: kldload: Unsupported file type (I believe the bzero failure is a result of the unexpected relocation type preventing symbol resolution, and not vise-versa.) I'll keep poking at it. The snapshot of 6.1 beta-1 is available on the FreeBSD FTP sites. If you or another developer would like an account on an amd64 FreeBSD 6.1-beta1 machine, just let me know -- the machine I'm trying to install is a new server I just bought and it's completely unused. I'm happy to defer moving it into production for a bit if it means AFS support. :) -Dave _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
