RE: Upcoming 4.6.1
Sure - the newest security fixes go into the release as well, but why not Matt's most recent bug fixes? Why not include OpenSSL 0.96d, ipfw2, gcc 3.1 and while we're at it everyone else's pet software? Where would you draw the line? IMO, 4.6.1 s/b a point patch release. Maybe because they are not bug fixes? If we go through the trouble of releasing a new version of FreeBSD why not include a few close-to-critical bug fixes if they are trivial and known to be correct? I fail to see the logic of releasing an x.x.1 version that still has serious known problems that there are known fixes for. -- Daniel Eriksson Lurker extraordinaire To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-stable in the body of the message

Performance boost with kernel options in FBSD 4.6
Dear Sirs. I followed an interesting dispute in this list about setting the kernel option HZ=100 to HZ=1. No one can say exactly what kind of hardware is 'fast enough' to obtain benefits from setting this granularity option to that high value, so each administrator has to do several efforts to examine whether its hardware is suitable to switch o HZ=1 or not. We use several SMP systems around here, some have special server mainboards (Slot1 type, TYAN Thunder 2500), some new UP systems with P4/ASUS P4TE main PCB and a low cost SMP system with ASUS CUV4X-D PCB. On all these systems it seems to my subject that performance or 'reaction' time has significantly increased. I did not test the behaviour under extremely heavy load, but within our normal duties and daily work (webserver, MySQL server, NFS server (UPD NFS/3), DHCP boot server, SAMBA server, analytical number crunching with smaller applications in F77 and/or PGI pgf90 under Linuxulator) it is a very convenient experience to see how smooth these machines operate now. We also have a lot of pure diskless clients for X11 terminal services, based on 750 MHz Duron and 64 MB PC133 slow SDRAM, Intel Pro/100+ NICs. They also now have HZ set to 1 and they also seem to operate faster. Well, this is a subjective impression, not aproved by measurements. -- MfG O.

VMware2 and CDROM image
Hi, I have a patch that allow to use CD-ROM images in VMware2 via vn device: http://sysoev.ru/freebsd/patch.vn_cd.txt Patch was made and tested on FreeBSD 4.2 and 4.3. I had used it to install Windows NT 4.0 from CD-ROM image in VMware2. It can be used on FreeBSD 4.x only (because it's using vn device). Russian description is available here: http://sysoev.ru/freebsd/vmware_cd_image.html In English, short: After appling of patch you need rebuild vnconfig and kernel. vnconfig will get new options - '-s cdrom': vnconfig -s cdrom -c vn0c image.iso After configuring vn device you can use it in VMware2 as /dev/vn0c instead of physical CD-ROM device.

lnc interface dying under heavy I/O when running 4.6-STABLE under VMware 3.1.1
Guys, The subject describes it all. I don't know if anyone else is facing this problem, but I can reproduce this problem at will. Under VMware 3.1.1 for Windows, the lnc driver will stop responding after some time. The weirdest part is that it will only manifest itself when doing some heavy network I/O, such as 'make installworld' from NFS mount, or doing netperf. The host OS is WinXP Pro, and the guest OS is the freshly cvsup RELENG_4. Looking at VMware log file, I see a lot these messages: Jul 09 16:42:48: VMX|VLANCE: ethernet0 skipped 1024 time(s) Jul 09 16:42:48: VMX|VLANCE: 254 30 24 23 26 215 11 3 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Jul 09 16:42:48: VMX|VLANCE: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 436 Jul 09 16:42:51: VMX|VLANCE: ethernet0 skipped 1280 time(s) Jul 09 16:42:51: VMX|VLANCE: 354 44 37 35 37 313 17 3 3 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 Jul 09 16:42:51: VMX|VLANCE: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 436 I've done some investigation, and it seems that after some heavy network activity, the lnc driver will stop calling RX interrupt routine, lnc_rint(). The fix is very simple though; in sys/i386/isa/if_lnc.c, delete the call to outw(sc-rdp, RINT | INEA) at the very end of lnc_rint() function. See diff below applied against the latest RELENG_4 code. # diff -ruN sys/i386/isa/if_lnc.c.old sys/i386/isa/if_lnc.c --- sys/i386/isa/if_lnc.c.old Tue Jul 9 21:04:31 2002 +++ sys/i386/isa/if_lnc.c Tue Jul 9 21:04:45 2002 @@ -630,7 +630,6 @@ * here have been dealt with. */ - outw(sc-rdp, RINT | INEA); } Anyone care to describe/explain/enlighten me on what is happening actually? - nuzrin - __ Do You Yahoo!?

Do VIA 83C572 USB controllers suck or is it just me?
I have a desktop machine with an Asus A7V133 motherboard. It's based around the VIA KT133A chipset. I tend to have a lot more problems with USB devices (under FreeBSD) on these controllers than with, say, my Vaio laptop, which purports to be based on the Intel 440 BX chipset (with a PIIX4 USB controller). The latest outrage is that I am doing some work on a USB audio device driver to clean it up a bit. It works *perfectly* plugged into the Vaio, but when it's plugged into the Asus machine, I get a trap panic the instant I try and play anything. I can't diagnose the trap because the dump doesn't happen, for unknown reasons. I'm almost at the point of going out and getting a PCI USB controller card for the damn thing. Is it just me?
