Re: Interpreted language(s) in the base
Hello, Doug. You wrote 16 августа 2010 г., 10:15:55: lua too flavor of the day, not enough track record of stability, not enough installed base/proven utility To be honest, lua is used in TONS of (commercial and, often, console) games as scripting engine, without any issues with stability or speed. Console games are very special world, where stability is holy cow, BTW. some JavaScript engines probably fit the description. Yikes! Sorry I asked. :) Best scripting language ever :) Mixup of Lisp and Self, disguised to looks like traditional language. And, yes, I'm serious here. But JavaScript have one problem: both good open-source engines (SpiderMonkey and V8) don't have good system library for file/io/process operations. They are too-browser specific. They can be easily stipped down to bare engines (very small, very efficient), but in such case here is huge amount of work by writing all native objects and operations needed for system scripting. -- // Black Lion AKA Lev Serebryakov l...@freebsd.org ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Does that really matter? We're not going to start building releases with icc, are we? It could matter for ports, I do not know if it matters for parts in src. The commercial license is also the only way that we could get icc installed on machines in the FreeBSD cluster (if there's interest to have another compiler *for FreeBSD development* to check the source against... the warnng and error messages are better that those of gcc, I do not know how they compare to clang). If one begins to mention FreeBSD clusters, and moreover FreeBSD HPC, then this becomes a somewhat different discussion. One of the stubmling blocks for HPC on FreeBSD (just one of many, perhaps not even the major one) is a complete lack of good quality commercial compilers. All weÃ'got is gcc or clang. Both are not really that great, and definitely inferior to commercial compilers, e.g. Intel. What IÃ'm saying is that it would be great if Intel sold a compiler for FreeBSD. I'd ve bought a copy. But from what others have said, my impression is that the ICC port is unlikely to fill this void. After I (and other people which provided patches) ported icc to FreeBSD someone from IIRC Asia took the port as an example and ported Intels Fortran compiler to FreeBSD in the same way (he was able to use a lot of the icc port, only some minor modifications where necessary). I had the impression that this was used for HPC. P.S. My interests and expertise are in computational mechanics, not in compilers, so feel free to correct me if IÃ'm wrong. In general: The resulting code (for icc and ifc) was working. The application binary code itself was/is the same (modulo differences in system headers), the only things which need to be changed are the startup code and the libs. We managed to do that. P.P.S. Regarding FreeBSD HPC see also this thead: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2010-August/220264.html (FreeBSD, GPGPU and OpenCL/CUDA) That's not the way we would like it to be, but at least it is possible: http://blogs.freebsdish.org/jhb/2010/07/20/using-cuda-with-the-native-freebsdamd64-nvidia-driver/ When I was working on icc, I had an idea about a liblinux2freebsd which would provide common linux-symbols and map them to FreeBSD-equivalents (together with some predefined objdump/objcopy/... scripts to modify linux libs) so that you can take a linux lib and use it to create native FreeBSD programs. Sort of like the NDIS layer in the kernel to run Windows binary drivers. Unfortunately I never got the time to work on this. Something like this could have maybe been used to mangle the linux cuda libs to be used on FreeBSD natively.

As for myself, while I have some facility in C it's not my strong suit. Yes, I could have produced a profiling version of grep, but it would have taken me a lot more than 10 minutes because I don't even build the profiled libs on a regular basis. That's fair. I didn't use to do that because it increases build time considerably, but now I do. If you have profiling libraries installed, you can build a profiling version of grep (or any program) like so: % cd /usr/src/usr.bin/grep % make clean % make DEBUG_FLAGS=-pg -g -DNO_SHARED Do *not make install, because the result will be dog slow and you don't want to use it in production.

Whiteout support for tmpfs [Was: unionfs a little improvement]
Hi all, Even though the proposed fix for unionfs would still be nice to have in SVN, I just wrote a patch for tmpfs to add support for whiteouts: http://80386.nl/pub/tmpfs-whiteout.txt Basically I've implemented it by allowing directory entries to refer to NULL inodes, to indicate the entry is a whiteout. I think the patch should work pretty well, but what I dislike about it, is that when it removes a file and replaces it by a whiteout, it deallocates the entire directory entry, followed by the allocation of a new directory entry for the whiteout. This could be done more efficiently, but the problem is that it turns the code into a mess. Any comments? -- Ed Schouten e...@80386.nl WWW: http://80386.nl/ pgpuEIWRJzq7F.pgp Description: PGP signature

CD/DVD ejecting after sysinstall
References: http://www.mail-archive.com/svn-src-...@freebsd.org/msg24380.html http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=17126 This commit automatically ejects the CD when sysinstall exits which almost had dire consequences for me this week. As described in the forum post, I keep a LiveFS CD in all of my servers so that I can remotely diagnose and fix issues. I have done this for several years now, and it has saved my tail many times. However, I got a surprise when I tried it today with the new 8.1 LiveFS CDs I had just burned. After attempting to fix a problem from the LiveFS and rebooting back to the HD, the problem still existed. No problem. I just tried to boot back to the CD only to find that it was gone. Luckily, this was on a box in-house, so I was quickly able to see what was wrong. Now that I have the commit, I can roll my own patched sysinstall and CDs, but the question is: Should we be ejecting the media without any prompt? Obviously, for my use case, I liked the old behavior of just reminding the user to eject the media when rebooting. I understand that may not be optimal for some users. Can we present a dialog asking the user if they want the media to be ejected? That still leaves me at risk of selecting the wrong answer, I suppose. I would rather not have to roll my own LiveFS CDs every time, though. Thoughts from anyone else?

Re: CD/DVD ejecting after sysinstall

As described in the forum post, I keep a LiveFS CD in all of my servers so that I can remotely diagnose and fix issues. I have done this for several years now, and it has saved my tail many times. However, I got a surprise when I tried it today with the new 8.1 LiveFS CDs I had just burned. After attempting to fix a problem from the LiveFS and rebooting back to the HD, the problem still existed. No problem. I just tried to boot back to the CD only to find that it was gone. Luckily, this was on a box in-house, so I was quickly able to see what was wrong. Now that I have the commit, I can roll my own patched sysinstall and CDs, but the question is: Should we be ejecting the media without any prompt? Obviously, for my use case, I liked the old behavior of just reminding the user to eject the media when rebooting. I understand that may not be optimal for some users. Can we present a dialog asking the user if they want the media to be ejected? That still leaves me at risk of selecting the wrong answer, I suppose. I would rather not have to roll my own LiveFS CDs every time, though. Thoughts from anyone else? (Please copy me on responses.) You are correct. We should not be ejecting the CD without a prompt. If the commit is reverted, it should be explicitly noted in the code so that we don't do this mistake again.

This one's in your court! There is no way to fix this with the current tinderbox code. MHO is that the entire powerpc64 thing is very poorly thought out. I'm the first to admit that many of the config tricks involved in this port, and GENERIC64, are ugly hacks, largely because config(8) was not designed with such things in mind. But the alternatives were much worse: - A sys/powerpc64 that duplicated most of sys/powerpc, which would have been a maintenance nightmare (see sun4v). - A sys/powerpc64 that was mostly symlinks and stub includes, which is inelegant at best, and could cause kinds of fascinating problems for user programs including things in machine/. - Bunches of new make variables like TARGET_BIG_ENDIAN and TARGET_64BIT and such like mips and arm have, which is way more awful, as well as precluding tinderbox and make universe coverage in a reasonable way. powerpc64 is the first architecture trying out this new multi-architecture MACHINE approach, which Warner designed to kill off things like TARGET_BIG_ENDIAN, so there are going to be some interesting rough patches along the way, and I really appreciate your patience in sorting them out. To address the immediate problem, I think the best solution is to use the -m option to config to reject kernel configs for different architectures, the way the tinderbox scripts currently skip kernel configs that they are asked to build that don't exist. If you think this is a reasonable approach, I'm happy to code up a patch to tinderbox to do this over the weekend.

why GNU grep is fast
Hi Gabor, I am the original author of GNU grep. I am also a FreeBSD user, although I live on -stable (and older) and rarely pay attention to -current. However, while searching the -current mailing list for an unrelated reason, I stumbled across some flamage regarding BSD grep vs GNU grep performance. You may have noticed that discussion too... Anyway, just FYI, here's a quick summary of where GNU grep gets its speed. Hopefully you can carry these ideas over to BSD grep. #1 trick: GNU grep is fast because it AVOIDS LOOKING AT EVERY INPUT BYTE. #2 trick: GNU grep is fast because it EXECUTES VERY FEW INSTRUCTIONS FOR EACH BYTE that it *does* look at. GNU grep uses the well-known Boyer-Moore algorithm, which looks first for the final letter of the target string, and uses a lookup table to tell it how far ahead it can skip in the input whenever it finds a non-matching character. GNU grep also unrolls the inner loop of Boyer-Moore, and sets up the Boyer-Moore delta table entries in such a way that it doesn't need to do the loop exit test at every unrolled step. The result of this is that, in the limit, GNU grep averages fewer than 3 x86 instructions executed for each input byte it actually looks at (and it skips many bytes entirely). See Fast String Searching, by Andrew Hume and Daniel Sunday, in the November 1991 issue of Software Practice Experience, for a good discussion of Boyer-Moore implementation tricks. It's available as a free PDF online. Once you have fast search, you'll find you also need fast input. GNU grep uses raw Unix input system calls and avoids copying data after reading it. Moreover, GNU grep AVOIDS BREAKING THE INPUT INTO LINES. Looking for newlines would slow grep down by a factor of several times, because to find the newlines it would have to look at every byte! So instead of using line-oriented input, GNU grep reads raw data into a large buffer, searches the buffer using Boyer-Moore, and only when it finds a match does it go and look for the bounding newlines. (Certain command line options like -n disable this optimization.) Finally, when I was last the maintainer of GNU grep (15+ years ago...), GNU grep also tried very hard to set things up so that the *kernel* could ALSO avoid handling every byte of the input, by using mmap() instead of read() for file input. At the time, using read() caused most Unix versions to do extra copying. Since GNU grep passed out of my hands, it appears that use of mmap became non-default, but you can still get it via --mmap. And at least in cases where the data is already file system buffer caches, mmap is still faster: $ time sh -c 'find . -type f -print | xargs grep -l 123456789abcdef' real 0m1.530s user 0m0.230s sys 0m1.357s $ time sh -c 'find . -type f -print | xargs grep --mmap -l 123456789abcdef' real 0m1.201s user 0m0.330s sys 0m0.929s [workload was a 648 megabyte MH mail folder containing 41000 messages] So even nowadays, using --mmap can be worth a 20% speedup. Summary: - Use Boyer-Moore (and unroll its inner loop a few times). - Roll your own unbuffered input using raw system calls. Avoid copying the input bytes before searching them. (Do, however, use buffered *output*. The normal grep scenario is that the amount of output is small compared to the amount of input, so the overhead of output buffer copying is small, while savings due to avoiding many small unbuffered writes can be large.) - Don't look for newlines in the input until after you've found a match. - Try to set things up (page-aligned buffers, page-sized read chunks, optionally use mmap) so the kernel can ALSO avoid copying the bytes.
