Have you considered emacs ediff-directories?  It might be better suited
than mergemaster for handling arbitrary directories.

No, I have not considered it.  ;-)

As for mergemaster, it just about works for arbitrary directories.  I've
been playing around with it locally and there's not much effort needed
to generalize it.  The only challenge is maintaining POLA wrt people
using mergemaster for its intended purpose, updating /etc
post-installworld, without having the general functionality seem like a
hack.

I've got it working well enough for what I needed it for, but if there
is interest I will cleanup the patches so they're POLA-safe and post
them here.

bug in subr_bus.c?

2003-03-21 Thread John-Mark Gurney
Hello,

It's been a while since I've been doing FreeBSD work, but I was recently
working on a device driver for the Pinicle Micro DC10+ (Zoran chip) video
en/decoder board and was making full use of the newbus system.

I've been doing my devel work on 5.0-R (I'm in Thailand right now so I
don't have my normal devel environment) and doing it all on KLD to help
speed up devel.

Right now the problem I have is on kldunload, devclass_delete_driver gets
called and calls the detach routine for all associated devices.  This is a
slight problem since device_detach doesn't know anything about the
children, and if you look at device_delete_child, it deletes all the
children, and then calls detach.

So, the driver can:
a)  delete it's own children, but if it gets removed via
device_delete_child, this work is already down for you.
b)  let the bus code remove your children, but then if you're a kld,
your children won't be removed and you will cause a panic in devinfo and
other nasties since a device's parent won't exist anymore.

I believe that devclass_delete_driver should do a device_delete_child
instead of a simple detach, but then there is much code that is broken in
that it assumes that it needs to delete it's own children.

So, do we have the *_detach routine delete it's children or have the bus
code do it?  If you look at sys/dev/iicbus/iicbb.c, in the detach routine
it delete's the iicbus child, but that would already be gone in the
delete_child case, but not in the simple detach case.

So, which is correct?

I'll fix this, but I need direction on which way to go.  I think that
letting the bus code delete the children is better.

Comments?

btw, I will post some scripts to autoload kld debug symbols to my home
page (http://people.freebsd.org/~jmg/) soon.

If you create children then you're going to be involved in removing them.

There are helper routines that simplify some operations but I don't
believe any changes to subr_bus.c are needed.

There is.  It's called ``makeoptions''.  It's passed to both

I think this isn't so. I have been already tried to compile some modules
without compiling kernel and this trye has successful result, but without
change options.
I think modules must be build with same or less imports and same or more export to be 
correct
for loading.

Re: generalized mergemaster(8)

2003-03-21 Thread The Anarcat
What we need is a way to mark some package files as customizeable
files, or configuration files. The same way that some files are marked
DOC, but a bit better: it would need to be carried to the installed
package database.

This is again re-inventing the wheel since it is exactly how Debian's
apt-get system deals with configuration files. /etc files are part of
a package that, when upgraded, are checked for modification and the
user is offered the choice similar to mergemaster to install, merge,
or just delete.

We still need to write a generic tool to diff and merge. It's not so
hard to write. It would basically be a stripped down version of
mergemaster -s. I think such a tool would be really useful.

 mergemaster to this more general task?  And if not, is there interest in
 this?  If nobody has done it I'm probably about to.  My inclination is
 to extend the existing mergemaster script to support this general
 functionality while maintaining support for the specific case of an /etc
 merge.  mergemaster(8) is already fairly applicable to this task but it
 currently makes some assumptions about what your $Id$ looks like and
 that you will in fact be running make(1) somewhere to generate your
 temproot.
 
 Thoughts?

I'm pretty sure they do. A great example is IPFIREWALL_* options: if
they don't influence the module, I think we have a problem. ;)

I beg your pardon, but makeoptions is just next to editing makefiles
in /sys/modules.
My dream was that specifying, e.g., options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE
would result in building ipfw.ko inherently chatty :-)

BTW, Ruslan, let me ask you another question, as you've been recently
working at kern.mk files.  Is it on purpose that the target
kernel-cleandir doesn't invoke kernel-cleandepend?
I've been sure that by common practice cleandir should remove
dependency files...

ld.so and hard links

2003-03-21 Thread Paco Hope
Hi.

This is a really specific, technical question (and I think it's 
fascinating to those of us who don't know the answer) about how the text 
(code) segment of a program gets loaded into memory. I'm hoping hackers 
is the right place for this. If not, please forgive and suggest another 
venue.

Here's my baseline assumption. If I'm wrong here, I'm only going to get 
wronger as I go:
If I have two different programs that both use a shared library, 
libfoo.so, the system memory maps the object code they need into the 
processes' address spaces. There's only one copy of libfoo.so in memory, 
and the two processes each have handles into it (or maybe just to the 
pieces of it that they use?).

Step 2 of my question. This gets closer to my real query:
Ok now consider a hard link (not a symlink) from libfoo.so to libbar.so. 
One inode, two directory entries. Consider my two programs again, one 
linked against libfoo.so and the other linked against libbar.so. When 
they run, how many copies of the lib{foo,bar}.so object code are in RAM? 
My current hypothesis is 1. Isn't it mmapped off the disk?  The inode 
matters, not the file name, right? With me so far? Great.

Now consider jail(8). Let's say I have two jail environments (If you 
think I mean chroot here, go read jail(8), it's not the same. I'm 
assuming folks on hackers know jail.). To make my first jail, I make a 
copy of the FreeBSD stuff that my jail needs. To make the second jail, I 
create a directory hiearachy, but I *hard link* all the binaries and 
libraries and stuff to the same inodes that the first jail uses. Is that 
clear? Let's pick a specific example: 'ln /jail1/usr/sbin/sshd 
/jail2/usr/sbin/sshd'. Now, sshd uses /usr/lib/libz.so.2. In my example, 
I have (effectively) done 'ln /jail1/usr/lib/libz.so.2 
/jail2/usr/lib/libz.so.2'. These are not symlinks, so this works across 
jails. Now I launch both jails. Two sshd processes are running, one in 
each jail.

Now the $64K question: How many instances of, for example, the libz.so.2 
object code are in memory? Did my use of jail(8) make any difference? My 
intuition is that only one copy of the code is in memory for the same 
reason as in step 2 above. This is the real question I am interested in.

I'm also interested in a broader question. Consider instantiating many 
jails this way--say 50 or 100 all hard linked to the same base set of 
files. Can we characterize in some general hand-waving way how much 
memory (RAM) I would save doing it this way as opposed to the naive way 
of 50 or 100 copies of the files? I am assuming that if I have 50 copies 
of the files and I run 50 processes in 50 jails, then I will use more 
RAM than if I had 50 hard links to the same inode and ran 50 processes 
in 50 jails from that one inode. The naive copy method will use more 
RAM, but not 50 times more than the hard linking way.

Thank you to any who respond. I hope I'm not completely out to lunch on 
this.

Regards,
Paco

One feature I've long wanted to see in mergemaster is the ability
to install an entire directory at a pop, without having to manually
inspect every single entry in that directory.  A good example
is /etc/rc.d/ .   I would really like to be told
 /var/tmp/temproot/etc/rc.d/ and /etc/rc.d/ have 17 differing files.
 (I)nstall, (D)elete, or (R)ecursively examine? [R]
Then I could hit 'I' and update all of /etc/rc.d at once.
At times I've asked Doug about some kind of pattern-support in
~/.mergemasterrc, where the user could specify filename-patterns
of files where they want the default action to be install
instead of leave for later.  There are pros and cons with that
idea, but that's what I was thinking of for the directories you
describe.
Doug has suggested that people could maybe do things with the
MM_PRE_COMPARE_SCRIPT, for special processing like this.

Lots of kernel core dumps

2003-03-21 Thread Daniela
Hi all!

I'm getting lots of kernel core dumps on my server.
My RAM is OK, I tested it. Below are more detailed informations.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not yet intimate with the kernel, but I'm willing to learn it all.
Thanks in advance.

Actually, it's the vnode that matters, not the inode or the file

for the pages in each process.  For each file, there is only one
vnode, and one vmobject_t, corresponding to it.  If data or code
pages are modified, as before, since they are COW, what happens is
that each process gets its own pmap entries to copies of the pages,
and those copies are backed using swap as backing store (swap pager).

The reason I make this distinction is that it probably would not
help you to use loopback mounts, which is a problem for you if you
wish to maintain priviledge seperation.

If they are hard links, they get the same vnodes.  Therefore they

pages aren't shared, but the rest of the file remains shared.

You could potentially save a lot of memory.  *However*.  You may
not want to do this, since you are defeating priviledge seperation
that is what made you want to use jails in the first place.

Specifically, using your sshd example, say I do this, and then I
end up with 50 or 100 jail instances, which I then use to do
virtual hosting for 50 or 100 different customers.

Now one customer compromises the shared copy of sshd.  And can now
log into the jails of all my other customers.  In other words, if
you do this, you'd better be very sure that it's read-only media,
or take other precautions.

You posted to -hackers, but this is an older version of -current.

This is a known problem.  I believe it was fixed on the HEAD
branch in the last couple of days (i.e. if you update your -current
sources, then the problem should be resolved).

See recent discussions about trap 12 and panic in NFS, and
older discussions about the same panic in smbfs.

If you are already running today's -current, you can always try:

options DISABLE_PSE
options DISABLE_PG_G

These are in GENERIC, so if it isn't in your SM58-27 kernel
config file, then it's because you went out of your way to take
them out.  I mention this possibility because of:

I know, but 5.0-RELEASE was

b) A snapshot of 5.0-CURRENT

You read the 5.0 Early Adopter's Guide, right?  Bugs like this are

There's a Linux Jail like thing called vserver, it has a feature where
you hardlink a whole bunch of stuff for different jails (it has tools
for building a set of jails from a given tree). It does a copy on write
for any of these hardlinked files so you don't get the security issue.

No idea if it's possible to implement something like that for a jail :)
