Possibly dumb question: OK, you specified makeoptions DEBUG=-g in your
kernel config file.  Did you also run config(8) with the -g option?

Any other clues, why this could be happening. I also tried the other procedure of 
using 'make depend' etc as outlined in the doc, but that produced the same results. 
What else could I be missing?

TCP Problems in 4.3 ?

2001-07-02 Thread Andre Grosse Bley

Hello Hackers,

i think the tcp code in 4.3-RELEASE (and at least stable from last week) has
a serious bug in tcp handling:

I use LPRng 3.6.20 and openssh on the 4.3 box, lpd-server is on a 4.1 box.
Issuing 4-5 lpq's in a minute gives Connection timed out.
First i thought it may be a problem with LPRng, but scp'ing large files
doesnt work anymore, too. Even ssh hangs sometimes.
I tried to disable the newreno stuff with sysctl, didnt change anything.
Why i suspect a tcp problem?

The host scp connects to shows:
LAST_ACK in state (netstat),
The host initiating the scp connection shows ESTABLISHED in state.

I hope its no problem on my side, but i checked the archive before and I did
not have this behaviour on 4.2

Any ideas?

Andre

Re: Linux Applications Over PPP

2001-07-02 Thread Brian Somers

The only strange occurrence I've seen that sounds even vaguely 
similar is that if you leave out a nameserver line in 
/compat/linux/etc/hosts, it *doesn't* default to 127.1.

Try adding a nameserver line (if you haven't already got one).

 Hi,
 
 Six million *.rpm files later, I've finally got the Linux version of
 Mozilla working properly. However, neither the Linux versions of Mozilla

 the FreeBSD version of Mozilla.
 
 Why is this? What setting do I need to alter to enable Linux apps to use

If the configure.in and Makefile.am files (and similar) are created

with any combination of autoconf = 2.50 and automake 1.4.
Trust me, I've tried.

The only thing I *haven't* tried so far is actually try to update
my automake to 1.4d or similar.

i810E driver?

2001-07-02 Thread Lakey, Jeremy # IHTUL








Is anyone working on an i810E driver for BSD? Specifically something that will enable the 3D
hardware acceleration and make it useful for OpenGL, X, etc? 



I'm looking at this for a pet summer project, and
wanted to make certain I wasn't duplicating any effort. All these Dell boxes come with the i810E as
the integrated video chip, and it's really a fantastic chip, nice
acceleration, but drivers are scarce.. The redhat driver
sucks too, barely implemented.

Orca performance data collector

2001-07-02 Thread Borja Marcos


Hello,

I am writing (in fact I am getting a lot of code from 
/usr/src/usr.bin/vmstat) an Orca data collector for FreeBSD. I think it would 
be great to have the performance data available in Orca.

I am thinking about representing the following parameters:

CPU load
CPU usage (user, system, interrupt, idle). ¿Do you think it is better to add 
nice + user to have a single user value, or is it better to separate them?

Spawned process/sec
Number of processes
Interface stats:
in, out (bps)
in, out (packets)
errors/s
nocanput (perhaps packets not send because of buffer outages?)
deferred
collisions
TCP bits/sec
TCP packets/sec
TCP retransmissions + duplicates
TCP new connection rate
TCP open connections
TCP reset state
TCP listen drop rate
MBUFs
Disks:
operations/sec
transfer rate
transfer size
run % or time to complete an operation
(BTW... is it possible to get read and write statistics instead of a 
sum?)
Cache hits (inode and directory)
Memory (usage, etc).

Any more interesting parameters? An example of Orca can be seen in 
http://www.gps.caltech.edu/~blair/orca/. It is really useful to watch the 
system performance.




Borja.

catching ip packets from module

2001-07-02 Thread Eugene L. Vorokov

Hello,

can please someone enlighten me how can a module catch ip packets before
they actually enter the stack, the way ipfw or ipf does ? I tried to look
at the sources, but ipfw seems to do it some very specific way which
is based on some in-kernel hacks to make it possible (ofcourse correct me
if I'm wrong), and ipf does so many things at startup so I can't figure
out which function does what :( I just want to add my handler so that
all packets would be passed to it before entering the kernel ...

Thanks for the information.

No, there was only a FreeBSD 4.2 with options BRIDGE in between. And anyway,
if firewall would be a problem, why this problem doesn't appear with 4.2 ...

FreeBSD 4.0-release installation problems

2001-07-02 Thread Zac M. Speidel

A few days ago I got my Dell 8100 (1.5 ghz and 128 Mb
of ram) in the mail. Naturally I desided to install
Freebsd 4.0 on it along with preinstalled WindowsME.
So I used Partition Magic to cut the 40 gig windows
partition and add a partition for freebsd (about 5
gigs allocated). The installation ran pretty smoothly,
it probed my hardware fine and everything seemed to be
working ok. During the installation process freebsd
prompted me to choose a boot loader, I choose the
freebsd boot manager (booteasy). When I rebooted my
machine The boot easy prompt came on F1 for windows
and F2 for freebsd, I hit F2 because I wanted freebsd
to load. When I hit F2 all I heard was my internal
speaker beep - one of those annoying warning beeps
and nothing attempted to load. when I hit F1 windows
loaded fine. I began thinking it was some sort of BIOS
configuration problem so I went in bios and no luck
there eather.. 

I have heard about some system BIOS having an
issue with exceeding 1024 cylinders or whatnot, but
this is for OLD machines not new 1.5 ghz machine.. If
anyone has information on my problem or can offer
suggestions please email me... I will take you out for
a cup of coffee or  lunch if you help me get freebsd
running (joking) anyways have a great summer bsd
cadets and stay away from the heat..

Re: Status of encryption hardware support in FreeBSD

2001-07-02 Thread Nate Williams

   I think you've missed the fact that the '486 solution requires an
add-on board (priced at $80.) and the faster cpu solution doesnt. That
adds a lot of margin to get a faster MB, more than enough to
compensate for the board.
   
   Not necessarily.  The upgraded motherboard also requires a faster
   processor, and the two parts added together are almost certainly going
   to be more than $80.
   
 
 There is nothing more annoying than someone who argues subjects he clearly 
 knows nothing about. 

I agree. :)

 You are way off on your pricing. Way off. A 633 Celeron 
 is under 50. Q1 for petes sake. The cost difference would be less than $20. 
 in quantity. It would be less than $80. Q1.

That's just CPU.  You've left off the motherboard, as well as the memory
and other supporting hardware required for the CPU to do the work.

 Theres an old saying about being penny-wise and pound foolish. Using a
 486 in todays networking and cost environment is just plain moronic.

See your first sentence.  You *really* don't know what you are talking
about.

3. Consider a small (8 MB is more than enough) partition to hold /boot.

 When you get a new struct file from falloc(), VFS has nothing to do with
 it. As you can see from the streamsopen() code, you can change f_ops
 (which by default points at badfileops) and f_data (defaults to zero) to
 point at your own functions and data.
 
 The point is that you are creating a new file. The VFS-owned file which
 ended up calling the open driver entrypoint will be discarded in favour of
 your new one.

But, what about all the locking stuff in vn_()? How can I know if
I actually need them?

Filesystem ACL's

2001-07-02 Thread Robert Hough

Couple of questions, and my apologies for repeating something that may
have been mentioned recently...

Are Filesystem ACL's something we can look forward to seeing in FreeBSD?
Also, is there a place I can view the progress and/or the current status
of the project? Finally, what does it take to implement this functionality?

If this is a feature already in production, please just smack me upside the
head, and point me to the correct man page. Thanks!

In fact there wasn't even a /compat/linux/etc/hosts file, so I created
one, containing the line:

(Dionysus is the hostname of my machine).

Unfortunately this had no effect, even after unloading and reloading the

/compat/linux/etc/hosts.conf is set so it parses hosts first as well.

Any ideas?

At one stage you needed one as the linux binaries expected a different

Sorry to jump in an old discussion, I don't read fbsd-hackers often

In this situation, wouldn't you rather take the solaris option of
putting nfs_servers in their own startup option and start the
servers desired (maybe you don't want rpc.lockd) according to normal
rc.conf knobs.  For services as tightly coupled as this that seems
like a much better way of guaranteeing ordering, and the whole package
could then depend on portmap.

It's not like you'd ever want nfsd and not mountd, or vice versa.

 Hello,
 
 can please someone enlighten me how can a module catch ip packets before

 is based on some in-kernel hacks to make it possible (ofcourse correct me
 if I'm wrong), and ipf does so many things at startup so I can't figure
 out which function does what :( I just want to add my handler so that
 all packets would be passed to it before entering the kernel ...

the way ipfw or ipf does? by adding hacks^H^H^H^Hooks into ip_{in,out}put()
search for ip_fw_chk_ptr and fr_checkp, those are the money functions.
everything else is just setup and reaction.

as far as non-hacks that do similar things, as alfred points out netgraph
is probably the most modular way to drop in raw-frame-needing-module-X.

Question on making a custom release

2001-07-02 Thread CRG

FreeBSD warriors:

Steps I took to try to make a release.
Followed the FreeBSD FAQ about making a custom release:


supfile looks like this:

*default host=cvsup3.freebsd.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr/local/cvstree
*default release=cvs
*default delete compress use-rel-suffix

src-all 



Next Ran this command:
cvsup -g supfile

Then I:
setenv CVSROOT /usr/local/cvstree
cd /usr/src
make buildworld
cd /usr/src/release
make release BUILDNAME=4.3-CUSTOM CHROOTDIR=/usr/local/latest43/release
CVSROOT=/usr/local/cvstree NOPORTS=1 NODOC=1
--

Builds for a couple of hours then I get this error:

--

I want to know which /usr/src/release/sysinstall?
The one created in /usr/local/cvstree?, /usr/local/latest43/release?, or
my
/usr/src/release/sysinstall on my host machine.

Note: My current kernel has the psuedo-device vn configure in and
installed.
I am root, but I did run cvsup as a user in the root's wheel group.
So no /usr/local/latest43/release/R/ftp directory created.

patch for cr_uid checks against zero in -CURRENT

2001-07-02 Thread Giorgos Keramidas

I was reading handbook/contrib.html to find useful things to do today.
There's a mention about replacing explicit checks of cr_uid against
zero with calls to suser() or suser_xxx().

The following little script, was what I used to look for cr_uid
occurences.

#!/bin/sh
( find . -type f | xargs egrep -C5 'cr_uid' ) |\
  sed -e 's/cr_uid//g' |\
  less -r

The output is rather long, and skimming through it, I found out that
the following files contained explicit checks of cr_uid against zero:

./dev/digi/digi.c
./fs/msdosfs/msdosfs_vfsops.c
./fs/nwfs/nwfs_vnops.c
./fs/smbfs/smbfs_vnops.c
./fs/umapfs/umap_vnops.c
./gnu/ext2fs/ext2_alloc.c
./gnu/ext2fs/ext2_lookup.c
./gnu/ext2fs/ext2_readwrite.c
./gnu/ext2fs/ext2_vnops.c

./netinet6/raw_ip6.c
./nfs/nfs_subs.c
./nfs/nfs_vnops.c
./ufs/ffs/ffs_alloc.c
./ufs/ffs/ffs_vfsops.c

I am not sure if I can test the attached patch for all the changes
that it does, so here it is with any comments, suggestions,
corrections, welcome :-)

 Hello Hackers,

 i think the tcp code in 4.3-RELEASE (and at least stable from last week) has
 a serious bug in tcp handling:

 I use LPRng 3.6.20 and openssh on the 4.3 box, lpd-server is on a 4.1 box.
 Issuing 4-5 lpq's in a minute gives Connection timed out.
 First i thought it may be a problem with LPRng, but scp'ing large files
 doesnt work anymore, too. Even ssh hangs sometimes.
 I tried to disable the newreno stuff with sysctl, didnt change anything.
 Why i suspect a tcp problem?

Your description isn't exactly clear, but your problem may be fixed by
applying the patch and following the directions in my recently posted
message Re: select fails to return incoming connect on FreeBSD-4.3 - see
the freebsd-net archives.

Note that the patch addresses _only_ problems with connections
being established to the same host / port in a quick hurry.  There are no
known problems with connections terminating once a connection is
established.  I'm unable to ascertain which possibility you're describing
when you say that scp transfers fail.

If you're having trouble at the connection setup stage, apply the patch
and flip the sysctl.  Then see if it fixes your problem and get back to
me.

Thanks,

Hm.  2 hours is exactly the amount of idle time which causes keepalives to
be sent.  However, I'm not away of any bugs in keepalive handling, and I
just tested that 2 weeks ago (both between freebsd boxes and freebsd and

  alot of straightening up. If no one is doing this now, I have no
  problem attempting to tackle this. Anyone have any input or ideas
  before i set out on this?
 
 Sane patches are always accepted.
