libarchive / bsdtar bug
Hi, I just got bit by this bug in bsdtar: https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/issues/464 Since libarchive 3.1.2 is over 2 years old now and there have not been any more releases, what is the right way of going about reporting a fixed bug so that the FreeBSD version gets a patch downstream?

I have a similar problem. Also, unbound crashes each time I start/stop OpenVPN. I suppose the problem is the same in both cases. The crash happens in the config_lookup_uid() in contrib/unbound/util/config_file.c. Here's the code: struct passwd *pwd; if((pwd = getpwnam(cfg-username)) == NULL) log_err(user '%s' does not exist., cfg-username); cfg-uid = pwd-pw_uid; getpwnam(3) returns NULL: an error message is logged but the function doesn't return. Therefore, the program segfaults on pwd-pw_uid on the next line. The reason this crash happens is that unbound is chrooted and there is no /etc/pwd.db for getpwnam() to look at. A workaround is to mkdir /var/unbound/etc and put a copy of /etc/pwd.db into it (or even a reduced version that only contains the unbound user). I submitted a bug report for this yesterday. Marcus But why did getpwnam(3) return NULL in the first place? It looks for the unbound user which exists. getpwnam() calls _nsdispatch() which fails. I have the default nsswitch.conf.

Delayed atime updates (lazytime)
Hi, Looks like Linux is about to grow another solution to handling atime updates differently: http://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/621046/e59938475fd3e874/ In short, it will only write out atime changes periodically (daily), or if there is another reason to write out the inode, or if the inode is about to be pushed out of cache. This seems like a pretty good compromise. Currently, the ZFS configuration that results from using bsdinstall disables atime on all but /var/mail, which is the only example of disabling atime by default that I'm aware of outside of Gentoo Linux. I can't seem to find any information that talks about the rationale behind that, though a couple things come to mind: - some additional IO generated (but that's always been the case) - additional wear on SSD devices (enough to compel the change?) - zfs snapshot growth (but the snapshot stops growing after one full set of inode updates) - wake up otherwise idle spinning media on a laptop (the actual reason that was cited as motivation for the change) Something like lazytime would address most of those concerns, and people who are even more OCD than that could disable atime completely on their machine.

Marcus The VM only triggers UMA reclaim when it sees pressure, however if the main memory consumer is ZFS ARC its possible that the require pressure will not be applied because when allocating ARC ZFS takes into account free memory. The result is it will back off its memory requirements before the reclaim is triggered leaving all the space allocated but not used. I was playing around with a patch, on that bug report, which added clear down of UMA within ZFS ARC to avoid just this behavior, but its very much me playing for testing the theory only. From what I've seen UMA needs something like the coloring which can be used to trigger clear down over time to prevent UMA zones sitting their eating large amounts of memory like they currently do.

One, atime is turned off everywhere by default. There was a thread on this list on June 8 with a subject of 'Changing the default for ZFS atime to off?', and from what I can tell the idea of turning off atime by default was not a popular one. Two, and probably less controversial, is that fletcher4 is specified exlicitly on the root pool, even though it is default (wouldn't you just want to go with the default, in case it changes?) Marcus I have never heard a good argument for having atime on. Can you address some of the issues that people brought up in the thread I mentioned earlier? I'll summarize some: - breaks some software (MTAs were mentioned), and the admin should know when to turn atime on in those cases. - any mail program using mbox mail folders uses them to correctly report which mailboxes have not been read yet - Of course it can't be turned off by default. It is specified by POSIX. - If the overhead were a real problem then file systems would use a special atime cache The performance penalty on ZFS is quite large This is subjective, and if it were that bad it seems like other ZFS-based systems would have turned it off as well, or done something like caching/logging or relatime it to mitigate the performance hit. and it also makes your snapshots grow constant. This does not seem to be the case. For example, if I snapshot zroot/usr/src and then tar it up, I generate a bunch of writes and the snapshot grows to 70.5MB. However, when I tar it up a second time, there are writes but the snapshot remains 70.5MB. It seems to use the same blocks for subsequent atime updates. If you made another snapshot, you would see more space used for that one, of course. If you have a use for it, you can turn it on I guess. This would be solved by having the dataset editor we're planning for 10.1 Seems easy enough to turn on once installed. And like Allan says, the editor for 10.1 would allow changing of the default. The same case could be made for turning it off, make that an option in the installer instead. Some people don't seem to use atime on a regular basis, but I use it a lot when troubleshooting things, and I think others do to when they get to the point where they realize how useful it is. I'll add that if scripting it, you can (in current state for 10.0) change the dataset options at-will. The fletcher4 thing is a leftover, from older versions of ZFS where the default was fletcher2, I suppose we can remove it While I'm picking nits: There are some other locally set things that are default (exec set to on on zroot/var/tmp is one), that might just inherit that from zroot/var. Also, zroot doesn't appear to be mounted on /zroot, as it is on other ZFS-based systems. This has the side-effect of newly created datasets not having a mountpoint by default, instead of /zroot/dataset. I don't know of the reason behind this change either. I'm going to cross-post this to -current, this is a topic that I think warrants a wider audience.

I just got a reply from the port maintainer Alex Dupre as follows: MR It won't configure. Output on my machine is as below. I'm aware of this problem...It's due to the removal of -pthread gcc options in -current. I'll create a patch to fix it, in the meanwhile you may replace every instance of -pthread with ${PTHREAD_LIBS} in all configure(s).

I get this error: checking for C compiler default output... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables configure: error: could not configure Berkeley DB I just wish to know is this something wrong with my system in general or is this just due to the -pthread discussions that have been occuring and that this port is one example of those that no longer works on -current? It is not a problem as I have the previously compiled/installed version still on the system but I just wish to confirm if the problem is likely to be down to the pthreads changes, and if I should report it to the port maintainer etc?

Current issues
Hi: I made the jump to CURRENT this morning (via a fresh -RC1 install) and made the following observations. 1. Thought I toggled newfs off on the partition where /home was mounted. It went ahead and zapped it anyway. Good thing for backups.. 2. USB doesn't work with my chipset. I have an Asus A7V with VIA chipset. Kernel messages follow. Please contact me if I can assist in debugging. Otherwise, smooth sailing. I'm sure I'll break something else soon :) Marcus uhci0: VIA 83C572 USB controller port 0xd400-0xd41f irq 9 at device 4.2 on pci0 usb0: VIA 83C572 USB controller on uhci0 usb0: USB revision 1.0 uhub0: VIA UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 uhub0: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered uhub0: port error, restarting port 1 uhub0: port error, giving up port 1 uhub0: port error, restarting port 2 uhub0: port error, giving up port 2 uhci1: VIA 83C572 USB controller port 0xd000-0xd01f irq 9 at device 4.3 on pci0 usb1: VIA 83C572 USB controller on uhci1 usb1: USB revision 1.0 uhub1: VIA UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 uhub1: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered uhub1: port error, restarting port 1 uhub1: port error, giving up port 1 uhub1: port error, restarting port 2 uhub1: port error, giving up port 2 uhub2: ALCOR Generic USB Hub, class 9/0, rev 1.10/1.00, addr 2 uhub2: 4 ports with 4 removable, self powered To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-current in the body of the message

Please contact me if I can assist in debugging. Looks like I spoke too soon. It doesn't work with the RC1 GENERIC kernel, but after a cvsup and a build it's fine. I'll try to break something real next time. Marcus To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-current in the body of the message
