If I go to the offset in ufs/var, it turns out to point to the syslog entry corresponding to the previous line. What's really strange is that none of the files on either disk appear to be corrupted. smartctl shows no errors on either drive. dding the entire drive produces no errors. The GELI drive is exported via samba. The errors are triggered when accessing the samba share from a PC. This is not reliably repeatable. My question is: What does error = 11 mean in this context?

So mostly what we're looking at here is the resilver of a raidz2 is the pathological worst case. Lesson learned; raidz2 is just really not viable without some kind of sort on the resilver operations. Wish I understood ZFS well enough to do something about that, but research suggests the problem is non-trivial. :( There also seems to be a separate ZFS issue related to having a very large number of snapshots (e.g. hourly for several months on a couple of filesystems). Some combination of the OS updates we've been doing trying to get this machine to 9.2-RC1 and deleting a ton of snapshots. It would be nice to know which it was; I guess we'll find out in a few months. So it seems like the combination of these two issues is mostly what is/was plaguing us.

Not according to SMART; all the drives report no problems. Also, all the drives seem to perform in lock-step for both reading and writing. E.g. when one drive in an array is failing, all the drives may be pulling the same # of reads, but the failing drive will often report 100% busy and/or multi-second svc_t's and the others will sit at 4% with 20msec svc_t's or similar. In this case, it's acting like the disks are all hugely overloaded. Except without even the high svc_t's I typically associate with overworking an array. The speeds do fluctuate. Last night it was down to 64k/sec reads per drive (about 15 reads/sec) and still reporting 90% busy on all drives. It feels like some sort of issue with the bus/controller/kernel/driver/ZFS that is affecting all the drives equally. Also, even ls takes forever (10-30 seconds for ls -lh /) but when it eventually does finish, time ls -lh / reports: 0.02 real 0.00 user 0.00 sys Really not sure what to make of that. An attempt to do ps axlww | fgrep ls while the ls was running failed, because the ps hangs just as long as the ls. So it's like the system is just repeatedly putting anything that touches the disks on hold, even if all the data being requested is clearly in cache. (Even apparently loading the binary for /bin/ls or doing ls -lh / twice in a row.)

Terrible disk performance with LSI / FreeBSD 9.2-RC1
We have a machine running 9.2-RC1 that's getting terrible disk I/O performance. Its performance has always been pretty bad, but it didn't really become clear how bad until we did a zpool replace on one of the drives and realized it was going to take 3 weeks to rebuild a 1TB drive. The hardware specs are: - 2 x Xeon L5420 - 32 GiB RAM - LSI Logic SAS 1068E - 2 x 32GB SSD's - 6 x 1TB Western Digital RE3 7200RPM SATA The LSI controller has the most recent firmware I'm aware of (6.36.00.00 / 1.33.00.00 dated 2011.08.24), is in IT mode, and appears to be working fine: mpt0 Adapter: Board Name: USASLP-L8i Board Assembly: USASLP-L8i Chip Name: C1068E Chip Revision: B3 RAID Levels: none mpt0 Configuration: 0 volumes, 8 drives drive da0 (30G) ONLINE FTM32GL25H 10 SATA drive da1 (29G) ONLINE SSDSA2SH032G1GN 8860 SATA drive da2 (931G) ONLINE WDC WD1002FBYS-0 0C05 SATA drive da3 (931G) ONLINE WDC WD1002FBYS-0 0C05 SATA drive da4 (931G) ONLINE WDC WD1002FBYS-0 0C05 SATA drive da5 (931G) ONLINE WDC WD1002FBYS-0 0C05 SATA drive da6 (931G) ONLINE WDC WD1002FBYS-0 0C05 SATA drive da7 (931G) ONLINE WDC WD1002FBYS-0 0C05 SATA The eight drives are configured as ZIL, L2ARC on SSD and a six drive raidz2 on the spinning disks. We did a ZFS replace on the last drive in the line, and the resilver is proceeding at less than 800k/sec. extended device statistics device r/s w/skr/skw/s qlen svc_t %b da00.0 0.0 0.0 0.10 0.9 0 da10.0 8.2 0.019.90 0.1 0 da2 125.6 23.0 768.240.54 33.0 88 da3 126.6 23.1 769.041.34 32.3 89 da4 126.0 24.0 768.542.74 32.1 88 da5 125.9 22.0 768.240.14 31.6 87 da6 124.0 22.0 766.639.95 31.4 84 da70.0 136.9 0.0 801.30 0.6 4 The system has plenty of free RAM, is 99.7% idle, has nothing else going on, and runs like a one-legged dog.

That performance is similarly bad, but has never really mattered.) Similar systems running Solaris put out 10x these numbers claiming 30% busy instead of 90% busy. Does anyone have any suggestions for how I could troubleshoot this further? At this point, I'm kind of at a loss as to where to go from here.

Re: dhcp server returns core dump when i define network with mask 8
Quoting Frank Leonhardt fra...@fjl.co.uk: There are two common ways of defining a subnet mask - one is a dotted quad (e.g. 255.255.255.0) and the other is with a slash and the number of low-order bits - e.g. 192.168.1.0/8. Eight bits here means you get 2^8 addresses (i.e. 256). Don't use the first and last address in the range - the first is complicated (the network address) and the last is for broadcast packets. This doesn't always hold true but you're unlikely to come across exceptions. This is the wrong way round. the number after the slash indicates the number of bits in the network address - the high-order bits. So, when you say you want to define a network with mask 8 I don't really know what you mean from your example. Do you mean a /8? 192.168.1.0/8 = range 192.168.1.1192.168.1.254 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 (0xFF00) Nope. 192.168.1.0/24 = 192.168.1.1-255 mask 255.255.255.0. 192.168.1.0/8 doesn't start where you think it does (and is arguably the wrong way to specify that network) because all but the first 8 bits are masked out - it's 192.0.0.0 - 192.255.255.255. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Re: 9-STABLE doesn't boot: can't load 'kernel'
loader.conf was empty and there's no 4k gnops, geli, anything like that. This is a 100% normal install. Although, since you mentioned 4k blocks, I did leave a gap between ada0p1 and ada0p2 to start the root partition on a 4k boundary. (It's an SSD that will almost never be written to once installed, so that might be a bit silly, but it's a habit already.) I decided to try this again without the gap, and that seems to have worked. I made it through install and partitioning and OS updating to 9-STABLE and installing new boot blocks and it seems to have worked. I even got it to work with a ZFS root. Here's the partition table I ended up with: = 34 234441581 ada0 GPT (111G) 34990 1 freebsd-boot (495k) 1024 226051072 2 freebsd-zfs (107G) 2260520968389519 3 freebsd-swap (4.0G) I'm not sure why this would make a difference, but either it does or doing it cleared out whatever else was wrong.

9-STABLE doesn't boot: can't load 'kernel'
After installing 9.1-RELEASE amd64 on a system, it boots up fine. If I then build and install a new 9-STABLE kernel world, reboots die in the loader with: can't load 'kernel' This is a pretty straightforward system, one drive, not large (128GB SSD). GPT partitioned, gptboot boot code. One UFS root partition to boot from, a swap partition and, the rest for ZFS. (At first I tried to do this system with root-on-ZFS but that also failed, adding unable to load zpool by guid or similar before the can't load 'kernel' message.) Once this happens, the disk is unbootable. I can start from the install CD and access the disk just fine, but even if I move kernel.old back to kernel, it doesn't boot anymore. Likewise, it doesn't matter if I overwrite the boot code with gptboot pmbr from the install CD or the new ones from /boot after installworld. The disk looks like: # gpart show = 34 234441581 ada0 GPT (111G) 34 222 1 freebsd-boot (111k) 256 1792 - free - (896k) 2048 8388608 2 freebsd-ufs (4.0G) 8390656 8388608 3 freebsd-swap (4.0G) 16779264 217662351 4 freebsd-zfs (103G) In the loader: BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.02 Consoles: internal video/keyboard BIOS drive C: is disk0 BIOS 621kB/2067924kB available memory FreeBSD/x86 bootstrap loader, Revision 1.1 (root@builder, Mon Apr 15 09:14:38 UTC 2013) can't load 'kernel' Type '?' for a list of commands, 'help' for more detailed help.

If I trust the port maintainer to make me download and build something coming from e.g. http://samm.kiev.ua or http://danger.rulez.sk (just random picks, no offense intended), then I'd trust that maintainer to upload the package for me or submit a SHA256 hash that the correct package must have. So if somebody else were to build the package, the server would accept the upload only if it matches the hash. Am I overlooking something?

pkgng package repository tracking security updates
Hi, One of my primary concerns when managing a system is its security. In the interest of security, I usually hold to that patch early, patch often. Ports are kept well up-to-date and with portmaster it is not a problem to keep updating the ports. However, as Ivan [1] pointed out on his blog on pkgng: Having source-based ports is all fine and well but all that time compiling ports is subtracted from the time the server(s) would perform some actually useful work. After all, servers exist to do some work, not to be waited on while compiling. The same goes for me: I don't want to wait for ports anymore. I don't want to wait for compilation too, especially on large ports and weak hardware, and do it often to stay on top of security vulnerabilities. For that reason I look forward to binary packages. So, my question regarding pkgng is not really about the tool itself, but rather what will be provided via official repositories. One of the problems with the old pkg_* tools was that packages for a lot of software didn't exist and for those that did exist they weren't updated when vulnerabilities were discovered and patched upstream (and in ports). Is this going to improve with pkgng repositories, will there be a, say, -SECURITY repository that will build the new version of packages at least as often as security vulnerabilities are fixed in ports?

It's good to know what options you need and what options you don't and why, that's one of the reasons why i'm using FreeBSD. I feel that the goal for pkgng is that you can install your locally built binary packages in a tinderbox on all your infrastructure so you don't have to compile every port on every server. IIRC it was considered too cumbersome to compile all the ports tree for all the architectures supported and provide the so called official binary repositories. Regards, Andrei Hi Andrei, ports system is not going away with pkgng and it is still there for everyone who, like yourself, appreciates choosing all configure options and compile it by hand. I know that I'm not the only one who appreciates the practicality of binary packages and that is why I'm wondering if there are any plans for supplying the packages on a more consistent basis. I do understand that the infrastructure is limited and this might be cumbersome, but Linux distributions are doing it and while the same model probably isn't applicable to the smaller FreeBSD community, there are ways around that - building new versions only when (major?) security issues are identified, doing it for a limited scope of (most commonly used?) packages, using some kind of distributed hosting (e.g. torrents with maintainer-uploaded digital signatures) and so on.

The goal is to provide a state-of-the-art binary package management system for FreeBSD (and anyone else who would like to use it). For many users this will entail downloading pre-compiled packages from FreeBSD official repositories. But it will be possible for third parties to set up their own repositories, in the same way that eg. the Postgresql project has their own Yum repositories for RH-alikes. It will also be possible for people to compile their own packages either for direct installation, or to create their own private repositories to serve their own networks with their custom configured packages. And, ideally, people will be able to use a *mix* of the above as best suits their needs. Cheers, Matthew Hi Matthew, The point of my question was exactly if it was possible to elaborate on the pre-compiled packages from FreeBSD official repositories part. Would it be possible to have a (security-wise) up-to-date pre-compiled packages in the official repositories? Note, I don't expect an unreasonable effort here - I understand there will always be delays between upstream fix -- ports fix -- up-to-date package and it is acceptable for the binary package to lag a few days behind the port (depending on the availability of package building cluster or maintainer upload).

Possibly other architectures as well.

Re: Curious question about using zfs send -R and receive on FreeBSD
On Mon, 17 Dec 2012 16:00:06 -0600 dweimer dwei...@dweimer.net wrote: I recently migrated a machine that was built on a VM to physical hardware using the zfs send -R option against a snapshot of its root zfs setup. I went from smaller drives to larger, both using a mirrored zpool. However the devices were different, the device IDs on the VM were da0 and da1, the device IDs on the physical hardware were ada0 and ada1. I had used labels when creating the gpt layout to plan for this. And all worked great, in fact it was the fastest I have ever converted a virtual machine to a physical machine. After I finished though, I got curious, was it actually necessary for me to mount the new boot zfs partition while running on the live cd and copy the zpool.cache file I had created when creating the zpool or would have the existing cache file that would have been included in the zfs send contained the right information? As the zpool was pointed at the gpt label devices, or was the fact that the size changed enough difference that copying the file was indeed necessary? I fear you might be mixing things up here. You did a zfs-migrate, not a zpool-migrate, you created a new zpool and received the datasets on that new zpool, even if the zpool names were the same. The function of zpool.cache is to tell the OS about available device-zpool combinations. Without, the OS does not know which zpools are available and accordingly cannot mount the root-ZFS passed in the vfs.root.mountfrom directive in loader.conf, which is why you needed to copy the zpool.cache and, if you changed the zpool-names, needed to adapt loader.conf. There are plans to change this behaviour, as it is deemed superfluous at least in the case of disks, but I do not know how much that has progressed so far. http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-fs/2012-October/015328.html Hope I could shed some light on that issue, although I am by no means an expert on this.

Free website custom built by design students
Hello, We have some student interns looking to design a few free websites for their portfolio. Up to ten pages, Custom logo, Custom background. shopping carts and more. I was wondering if you would be interested in a free custom website design for your business? Either a brand new site, a redo of your old site, or an additional site to bring in more traffic. Its up to a ten page custom design and it really is free. the only cost is web hosting to keep your site online. $8 a month on average. Let met know if your interested in seeing some samples. thank you James ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

[OT:] tools/methods for automated cross-platform packaging?
Currently, I am looking into the problem of providing software packages for different platforms via native packages in a Continuous Integration Environment. The software in question is pure Java, so binary compatibility and/or cross-compilation issue resolves to having a conforming JRE installed on the target-platform. I know this question is prone for another OSI-10 flame-war on the Java is the OS statement - please don't. It is a customer requirement I must conform to. The (non-)intelligence of that requirement might be questioned, but ... Having looked into the issue of cross-platform packaging systems, I have found mostly separate package managers which require to be installed on the target-platform and manage a separate environment (viz OpenPkg, IPS). These do not help, as the customers require native packages. Apparantly, there are tools which take compiled binaries and wrap those into some package-format - EPM and ProjectBuilder do such a thing. The first has it's last commit by December 2010 and the second seems to be a one-man-show, so those (I did not find alternatives) are of questionable value in a long-term productive environment. Other projects manage to provide packages for a multitude of platforms. Are these built (semi-)manually by volunteers or distribution providers or is there any packaging infrastructure available to automate the task of taking sources to compile and package them? As I am talking of Java, a tool which packages binaries would be entirely sufficient. Thanks for any ideas or hints, cheers, -- Christopher J.

Warning - FreeBSD (*BSD) entanglement in Linux ecosystem
Hi, I think it would be useful to get familiar with what systemd is, technically and fundamentally. Here is a thread in which a knowledgeable professional questions many technical aspects of it: open this thread in one browser window (to get a nice overview of what you already read): http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2011-June/thread.html#152323 and start with the first post in another window (the reason is that tricksters tried to change the thread subject, but if you follow thr thread with next post you will not miss anything; be patient - there are some intermediate posts that are noice): systemd: please stop trying to take over the world :) Denys Vlasenko http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2011-June/152323.html There are important points raised: - going beyond system init replacement, systemd to be a platform for OS, together with GNOME 3 - not adhering to UNIX principles (modularity, etc) - interference with sysadmin duties/decisions to set up the system (e.g. loading modules on its own and e.g. enabling sys capabilities and protocols) - there are many other phantom reasons systemd was introduced as the next thing after the sliced bread invention, like parallelization that is not (but they sold it as if they implemented concurrency) This is just an intro ... There is much more to be questioned if you know what and care to. The author of this snake oil knows what and why he sells it. He is not a UNIX mind. One can scratch her head thinking what kind of pseudo progress can be sold to those goofies in Linux ecosystem, and apparently in *BSD ecosystem as well. The Slackware dev hit it exactly on the nail ! Think and enjoy it. I will eventually comment more on it later as well. jb ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
cannot build any pkg depending on glibmm on poudriere
Currently, I am failing to compile the packages for my machines with poudriere due to some error with glibmm, which I am unable to trace. The problem seems to be (at least from my point of view), that a dependancy to libsigc++ is not resolved corectly. As no PR has been filed yet and the problem persists with my builds for about two weeks, I expect the error is mine. Refraining from spamming the list, I include a snippet from the build-logs which is exemplary for all others which somehow depend on glibmm: === Returning to build of atkmm-2.22.5 === atkmm-2.22.5 depends on shared library: glibmm-2.4.1 - not found ===Verifying install for glibmm-2.4.1 in /usr/ports/devel/glibmm === Installing existing package /usr/ports/packages/All/glibmm-2.28.2,1.txz Installing glibmm-2.28.2,1...Installing gamin-0.1.10_4...Installing glib-2.28.8_4...Installing pcre-8.31\ ... done Installing perl-threaded-5.14.2_2...Removing stale symlinks from /usr/bin...

After switching to ipfw/natd networking in the jail works. Could this be a bug? I think you had an issue with firewall that block name resolution and makes everything goes slow. At least you need one single line on your pf.conf : nat on $public_interface form $jail_ip to any - ($public_interface) Even when loading only the nat rule it doesn't work: nat on fxp0 from 192.168.1.0/24 to any - $ext_addr Thanks.

IPNAT seems to affect network performance? of jails on lo0 (10.0.0.0/24) - why?
On a KVM virtualized host, I run FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE-p3 and some qjails, 8.3-RELEASE. The jails are connected all via lo0 on 10.0.0.0. While by the large working as expected, I have noticed one pecularity I have failed to pinpoint: When launching processes with some network interaction, like sshing into one of the jails from the platform or launching emacs, the command spends ages ( ~(1-2) minutes) idling? (nothing happens) before becoming interactive. For reasons unreleated, I have enabled NAT with ipf for the jails on 10.0.0.0/24 (to the external re0 IF and some IP) and, out of the blue, logging into the jails or starting emacs became snappy again. Why? Why does ipnatting jails which should be connected via the same lo0 on 10.0.0.0 have any impact? Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining and it solved an issue which gave me kind of headaches, but I would like to understand.

changing md5 hashed for sha
For setting the dafault hash used to hash /etc/master.passwd, it has been recommended changing md5 for something more secure in the sense of being more expensive to crack. The handbook describes the procedure used in http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/crypt.html. Allegedly, hashes which were hashed with one of the sha-functions begin with the character $6$. Afer having changed my /etc/login.conf accordingly and having reset the passwords, the given there is not md5 anymore (I have tried with md5), but does not begin with the character $6$, but, as md5, with $1$, which is supposed to be md5-hashed. I fear I am a bit dense here, what am I getting wrong? Thanks and cheers, -- Christopher TZ: GMT + 2h signature.asc Description: PGP signature

xorg crashes after ports-wide update, fontconfig the culprit?
Having done a portmaster -a rendered my system virtually unusable, Xorg kept crashing when opening claws-mail, firefox and thunderbird, opera kept chrashing in a random fashion, too. Quod googelet x11 crash site:freebsd.org and narrowing down the results for to the last week, I found two references, i.e., 1) http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?p=178234 and 2) http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?p=178014. Having implemented 2) via portdowngrade to fontconfig-2.8.0_2,1 seems to have solved the crashing issues for opera and claws, firefox and thunderbird are waiting to be compiled. Has anyone observed similar issues, can anyone back my suspicion about fontconfig or show me how to prove it and wouldn't a note on UPDATING be in order?

Re: Ports-Related Commands Hanging After 9.0 Upgrade

I recently upgraded to 9.0 on my server, but since then a lot of ports-related commands (portupgrade, pkg_version, portsnap, etc.) just hang when I try to execute them. I'm not even really sure where to begin troubleshooting. Has anybody else seen this behavior? Upgrading world leads to many system libs being updated, too. When ports are dependant on these, a recompile of these ports might help. If you need/want to be sure, sysutils/bsdadminscripts is supposed to contain a script to check for broken shared libs system-wide and a ldd(1) on the binary you are trying to run will spit out some libraries you can the try to find(1).

Samba 3.6.4 winbindd
Has anyone out there gotten winbindd from Samba 3.6.anything to work on FreeBSD 9.0-STABLE? It starts up with no obvious problems--although with Samba's usual cryptic error messages it's hard for me to tell--and then just sits there doing nothing. Wbinfo commands time out and pam_winbind.so doesn't work. When I run /usr/local/etc/rc.d/samba stop, it hangs waiting for winbindd to die, and I have to kill -KILL winbindd. I'm using security = domain. Other settings, logs, etc. available upon request. I've had to drop back to Samba 3.5.14_1 to get most things to work, but I really need to go to 3.6.* for the NTLMv2 support. -- J.

Or more accurately my wife and co have, with me behind the wheel. My wife is a musician and music teacher, and we only use FreeBSD, so its a given here (and a massive drive for me to find a way to support it). We used simple tools: audacity, rosegarden, and hydrogen. We used a usb yamaha sound board, and a ribbon mic for the vocals. The biggest problem here is that rosegarden refuses to use jack for midi transport now, so even though there is a jack_umidi daemon in the ports it still wont pick it up. I'll have to look at another app like ardour and see if it is better there. Other than that, all good. Incidentally, the reason for the emphasis on rosegarden is that it does midi and audio multitrack; as well as notation editing. Apparently they're hell bent on only using alsa (God only knows why - must have a death wish or something...), with marginal support for jack. Hence they only support midi through alsa, not jack. Madness... Yes, Rosegarden is a very nice app; it's just too bad we can't get true MIDI working with it under FreeBSD. As an amateur (frustrated?) composer, I *really* like the notation editing. For several months now, I've been unable to use Rosegarden at all (under 10-CURRENT). It crashes very early on startup. Haven't been able to track this one down yet. Gosh, how I miss my early days with FreeBSD and my Soundblaster AWE64 with the special MIDI apps for it in the ports collection (back in the good ol' days when OSS was our soundsystem). The usb audio was a good call; the uaudio driver worked well in our case with jack, and given all work was done on a laptop it made sense. These days I think it makes more sense because of the portability, not to mention if the power happens to go off in the midst of a take you can keep going and finish the track ;) The only other option that would be ideal would be firewire audio - if that ever comes to FBSD. I think there may be some support through jack, but I haven't investigated that fully yet. And dont forget lilypond for notation... :) I wish driver coding and such were more my area of expertise; I'd gladly lend a hand to any efforts to improve our MIDI support. Unfortunately, every time I've tried looking at any of the actual code for the sound subsystem, it's left me in a veritable mystified stupor. :-) And lately, even some of the timidity++ stuff isn't working right. The Xaw interface refuses to build/install properly, ever since the removal of X11BASE from the ports infrastructure. This is really my single, my one-and-only gripe with FreeBSD: MIDI! Used to have a nice setup that was working beautifully, pretty much comparable to what you might find under Windows or Mac. But the whole thing got yanked out and replaced with the newpcm stuff back in -- what year was it? -- sometime in the late 90s. Most unfortunate. I and a number of others protested at the time, that we were having functionality ripped out with no viable replacement in sight, and sadly, that's still pretty much the case. MIDI support in FreeBSD has never been the same since. :-( Oh well, I'll shut up now. Hate to come off as a whiner or something. :-) -- Conrad J.

As long as we're talking about clang, I have two questions.
1) Is there any generic reason why a port compiled with clang
won't work on a world compiled with gcc?
No, none that I'm aware of. I've occasionally seen mention of
this-or-that port causing problems if built with clang, not always
directly, but sometimes affecting other ports that depend on it.
2) If not, how do I set that up?
The standard method is to include the following in
your /etc/make.conf (also see the comments after this):
#
# use clang unless gcc is explicitly required
#
.if !defined(USE_GCC)
.if !defined(CC) || ${CC} == cc
CC=clang
.endif
.if !defined(CXX) || ${CXX} == c++
CXX=clang++
.endif
.if !defined(CPP) || ${CPP} == cpp
CPP=clang-cpp
.endif
.endif
Over a span of several months, I've gradually amassed a list of ports
I use myself which either won't build successfully with clang, or have
some sort of runtime issues when built with clang (these have a
tendency to change over time with new releases of a given port). For
these, I've added some exception lines to force them to be built
either with the base system gcc (4.2) or the lang/gcc port (4.6).
Note that these exceptions have to *precede* the previous lines in
order for them to override the above clang settings.
You can also override the clang settings at the command line by doing
make USE_GCC=4.2 (or 4.2+) or make USE_GCC=4.6 (or 4.6+), for
example. If you do do this from the command line, just be sure to be
consistent with it, i.e., you don't want to do a make USE_GCC=4.6
configure followed by a plain make or make install. Pretty much
sure to lead to trouble. :-)
Note, too, that none of these exceptions have anything to do with my
/usr/src builds. I've been using clang for buildworld and buildkernel
for quite some time now.

I didn't jump on the clang bandwagon for a good while myself, either.

realpath(3): a curiosity question
I'm just wondering if anyone knows the rationale behind the differing return codes from realpath() for non-existent paths, depending on whether the non-existent element of a path is at the end of the path or if it occurs somewhere further up the chain. Not asking that it be changed, mind you. Just wondering why it was decided to distinguish between these two cases. From the programmer's perspective, this is something of a minor annoyance, as running a non-existent path through realpath() may or may not return NULL, and therefore still requires additional code to further validate the path returned in the non-NULL case. Granted, the stated purpose of this function is not to verify a path's existence, but nonetheless, having a function that might be called non-deterministic in the results it returns just seems, well, *bad* to me (for lack of a better word at the moment).

I'm trying to confirm that, on a system with no pages swapped out, that the following is a true statement: a page is accounted for in active + inactive if and only if it corresponds to one or more of the pages accounted for in the resident memory lists of all the processes on the system (as per the output of 'top' and 'ps') No. The pages belonging to vnode vm object can be active or inactive or cached but not mapped into any process address space. I wonder if some ideas by Denys Vlasenko contained in this thread http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.devel/157706 would be useful ? ... Today, I'm looking at my process list, sorted by amount of dirtied pages (which very closely matches amount of malloced and used space - that is, malloced, but not-written to memory areas are not included). This is the most expensive type of pages, they can't be discarded. If we would be in memory squeeze, kernel will have to swap them out, if swap exists, otherwise kernel can't do anything at all. ... Note that any shared pages (such as glibc) are not freed this way; also, non-mapped pages (such as large, but unused malloced space, or large, but unused file mappings) also do not contribute to MemFree increase. jb ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Re: CUPS 1.5.2 not working, like to test 1.4.x, how?

I just don't know how, so that I could test my assumption that CUPS 1.4.x should be working for my setup. There's a port to do so: portdowngrade. You can use it to obtain older versions of a port. (I've been using it successfully to downgrade xzgv to a working version.) Thanks a lot. In my case, it meant finding out that you have to rebuild INDEX, downgrading the cups-base and cups-client port to 1.4.8 and then rebuidling the chain. Boiled down to 5m of actual work and some more waiting for the compile ... I have now cups 1.4.8 and am functional with a Kyocera 1030D connected via usb.
