Unable to newfs/fsck partition on -current because of write failed.

[Nicolai Petri]

I'm running -current from september, 14 on my notebook.

After an unclean shutdown (out of batteri) my /var filesystem died horrible. 
Now when i'm trying to do a fsck I always get write failed for a lot of 
blocks. I saw this error some months ago where I just wiped the fs with 
newfs. But now even newfs gives me Write failed. This seems a bit odd 
because i can easily do a dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad0s2d and clear out the 
label. Any hints ? I'm thinking geom and/or blocksize problems. But that's 
just a guess.

 Hello,
Hi Arno


 just in case re@ or a maintainer finds this worhtwhile :
 1)

   Setting hostname: M.

  module_register: module if_tap already exists!
  Module if_tap failed to register: 17
  can't re-use a leaf (if_tap_debug)!

   tap0: flags=8802BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500
   ether 00:90:27:3f:12:9f

 bit I just compiled if_tap into my kernel, and I nowehere asked
 explicitly for kldloading if_tap (IIRC)


I don't exactly know why it tries to load if_tap when it is already present, 
but FreeBSD should not allow it to be double-linked into the kernel. I 
created a patch that (hopefully ;) disallows this. You can find it at :
http://hobbes.bsd-dk.dk/~npp/kern_linker.patch 

I would appreciate if you have the time to test this to see if it aborts the 
loading correctly. I know it's not exactly the real fix but it should stop 
some panics. 
Could you also test if unloading the if_tap module panic's the system ? This 
should ofcourse be tested without my patch and preferably when a tap device 
is in use.


 voila, Arno

pccard.conf.sample ? Is that a great name ???

[Nicolai Petri (ML)]

Am I the only one who thinks that having a .sample file containing active
settings is a not so great ting ?

Why not simply rename it to pccard.conf, pccard.conf.default or
default/pccard.conf

 I've gotten notes for solaris worling.  Version 4.6

Nice... How well does it run ??

And did you install it on FreeBSD or Solaris ?? (I don't have a solaris so I
prefer not to do it that way :)

How do i implement an Application firewall (like an transparent ftp-proxy) (smtp verifier etc.)

[Nicolai Petri]

Subject says it all.. Almost.. 
Is it natd or is it the kernel ??
Maybe a plug-in system for natd could do it ?

How do I change IRQ priority for pcm ?

[Nicolai Petri]

I think newbus is come a long way now. But I still have a problem wich I
believe is related to newbus.

When I try to play and MP3 file. It's sounds like the soundcard plays the
DMA buffer 3-4 times before reloading new data into it ! (missing ints??)

Would it be possible to increase int. priority on the card.. And could it
make a difference ??

kldload (module parameters ??)

[Nicolai Petri]

Would it be possible and wise to implement a way to pass parameters to
modules when they are loaded ?? Like kldload if_olp -recv_debug ?
