[patch] Re: Loading mfsroot read-write on FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE
On 11/12/05 21:02 Dinesh Nair said the following: how does one specify a read/write mount of mfsroot in 6.0 in the bootloader ? apparently, the behaviour of vfs_mountroot_try() has changed in 6.0. previously, if the root filesystem was mounted from a memory disk, as would be the case with an mfsroot.gz, it would be mounted R/W while other fs types would be mounted R/O before /etc/rc scripts upgraded the mount to R/W. however, in 6.0, all root filesystems are mounted R/O. the following patch mounts all root filesystems R/W. it's a quick and dirty fix however, for a cleaner fix would be to duplicate 5.x behaviour of only mounting memory disks R/W and other disks R/O. the kernel needs to be rebuilt for this patch to take effect. is there enough interest in having memory root file systems mounted R/W at boot ? if there is, i could put in a little bit more effort into duplicating 5.x behaviour on this and submitting it as a PR to 6.0. --- CUT HERE --- --- sys/kern/vfs_mount.c.orig Sat Nov 12 23:22:07 2005 +++ sys/kern/vfs_mount.cSat Nov 12 23:59:50 2005 @@ -1297,7 +1297,7 @@ strcpy(path, ROOTNAME); error = kernel_vmount( - MNT_RDONLY | MNT_ROOTFS, + MNT_ROOTFS, fstype, vfsname, fspath, /, from, path, --- CUT HERE --- -- Regards, /\_/\ All dogs go to heaven.

Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5751M Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express and FreeBSD 4.10

Actually, I did not find anyone who actually make this i've got exactly the same setup as you do, and am trying to do this as well. short end of the stick is, the only way to do proper best path routing is by using BGP and having your ISPs (both of them) play ball and advertise BGP routes to you. without this, you'd never be able to do it yourself. as previously stated, FreeBSD does not support multipath routing by default, though there is a patch which adds this functionality into the kernel. i have not tried this patch at all, so i won't comment on it. what i do today is i set the default route to the ISP i am more convinced off, with static routes of certain large CIDR address blocks going out to the other ISP. i decided on those large blocks after checking the global route tables, AS PATH diagrams and experience of link quality. you can do this by using tools such as the Looking Glass servers, RouteViews.Org and even Netlantis.org for your situation. i'm not running routed, zebra/bgpd/ospfd on this at all, since it's all static routes and i can't find an ISP ospf/bgp router willing to exchange routes with me. i've tried exploring round robin routing using ipfw's fwd rulesets, but this does not change the src address of the packet, and sending a packet with the wrong src address down the wire can be detrimental to the packet's wellbeing. :) i'd be very interested though if someone else had succeeded in doing this.

Zebra implemets a number of routing protocols, including bgp. With BGP you can pick the best route *out* for your packet, but everyone else's BGP sessions will decide the best route *in* for you. In other words, to me, if i can pick the source ip address of my _outgoing_ packet, i.e. on which interface the connection is made, i'd be a happy camper. since i have two interfaces with two ip addies, the first http connection can have a 192.168.0/24 ip address, with the flow being carried on fxp0. the second http connection have have a 10.1/16 address with the flow being carried on the aue0. that would actually solve the problem, without having to set up multiple static routes. would this be possible ? thanx a bunch, david.

routing to specific network
hey, i'm on a multihomed FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE, cvsupped and built to -STABLE as of two weeks ago. the two NICs on the box each go to different ADSL providers. right now, i can switch which provider i use by just manually changing the default route. however, what i'd like to do is to have the default route set to one provider, but manually add static routes to networks closer to the second provider going out that way. EXAMPLE OUTPUT OF NETSTAT -RN: default192.168.0.1UGSc 13 2878 fxp0 10.1/16link#9 UC 20 aue0 10.1.105.5 00:e0:7d:03:a2:08 UHLW0 363 aue0815 10.1.105.2600:08:54:d0:5d:2e UHLW10lo0 60.6/1610.1.1.1 UGSc00 aue0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 012407lo0 192.168.0 link#2 UC 10 fxp0 192.168.0.100:30:ab:10:6c:0d UHLW 13 215 fxp0913 (192.168.0.1 is ISP1's router and 10.1.1.1 is ISP2's router) i've successfully managed to add routes for /16 networks, and 'netstat -rn' as well as 'route -n get' both give the expected results. however, tracerouting to an ip address in one of these static routes still shows that it is going out thru the default route instead of the second provider. running a packet sniffer and attempting a http connection confirmed this. in this case, any packet going to 60.6.1.1 what exactly should i be doing to get the behaviour i desire ? a secondary question is, with the /usr/ports/net/zebra package, can i configure this box to load balance flows over both ADSL connections, assuming i do not have an AS number (for BGP) handy ? i.e. the question is, assuming i make a tcp connection out using a browser (for argument's sake, mozilla), can mozilla send the packet out dynamically on the first NIC (with its IP address as source) and then round robin the next TCP connection off the second NIC (with the second IP address as source) ? would i need the recent multipath patches (though its for 4.8-STABLE) to do this ?

SOLVED: ADMtek USB To LAN Converter and HomePNA
people,
the following patch solves this problem. according to the ADM8511
datasheet, a couple of registers need to be set with specific values to
enable the HomePNA PHY on the device. the current aue(4) driver does not
do this, and thus by default the device will only enable the Ethernet PHY.
you'd need to rebuild kernel or just kldunload/kldload if using the
if_aue.ko module.

SOLVED: ADMtek USB To LAN Converter and HomePNA
use the following patch instead of earlier one. earlier patch hardcoded
use of HomePNA PHY and disabled Ethernet PHY. this patch corrects this
behaviour and allows switching between either PHY thru use of the ifconfig
command. this means that the USB dongle can either be used as an Ethernet
device (connect to switch/hub) or as a HomePNA access device, but not both
simultaneously.
ifconfig aue0 media homepna # activates HomePNA PHY/RJ11
ifconfig aue0 media auto # activates Ethernet PHY/RJ45
using auto as media type is synonymous with the following media types:
10baseT 10baseT-FDX 100baseTX 100baseTX-FDX
much apologies for not checking things correctly before submitting the
patch.
patch follows:
