The instructions there are outdated. There aren't special floppies to activate serial console.

OK, I will certainly try that then, giving the proper insturctions, since this Pentium1 FreeBSD PC will soon have a Windows PC next to it. However, I need a little advice/help: the handbook is still out-of-date for making serial console install floppies. Chapter 2.12 of the handbook talks about kern.flp and mfsroot.flp, whereas we have three floppies with 5.X install. Which one(s) of the three floppies of 5.X needs to be modified by the procedure of chapter 2.12 ? "Windows HyperTerminal" is then the way to go, isn't it? Thanks, Rob. __ Yahoo!

I have to believe this is either a bug in the controller, or a problem in cam or asr. As far as I understand this family of controllers the OS drivers aren't involved at all in case of a disk drive failure. It's strictly the controller's business to deal with it internally. The OS just sits there and waits until the controller is done with the retries and either drops into degraded mode or recovers from the disk error. That's why I initially speculated that there might be a timeout somewhere in PostgreSQL or FreeBSD that leads to data loss if the controller is busy for too long. A somewhat radical way to at least make these failures as rare an event as possible would be to deliberately fail all remaining old disk drives, one after the other of course, in order to get rid of them. And if you are lucky the problem won't happen with newer drives anyway, in case the root cause is an incompatibility between the controller and the old drives.

[Alan Jay] Since we are talking about FreeBSD on AMD64 on the AMD64 list I have reported issues on that list. I have a TyanThunder K8S pro S2882 twin Operteron with 8Gb of RAM and although I can get the machine to run reasonably stably with 8Gb of RAM with limited loading when pushed it falls over unpredictably. We did some tests with the latest 5.3-STABLE / 5.4-PRERELEASE and still found the same issues when using a mySQL database heavily hit over the Ethernet controller. Our final tests limited the memory on boot-up to 4Gb and the bug is still there so we think it may well be some interaction with the Ethernet controller. The motherboard we have has a BroadcomBCM5704C 10/100/1000 based card on board. Again this works fine initially but then we get a very dramatic failure with no warning messages and the system falls over. There are still a few issues to be ironed out with the FreeBSD 5.x on AMD64 the latest STABLE/PRE-RELEASE is much improved but be aware there may be issues. We will be waiting a few more weeks before re-trying these tests to see if the latest fixes that have been discussed have solved our problems. ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I'm afraid I can't easily help you because your device is different than mine. You can try attached patch anyways. Apply with 'cd /sys/dev/usb;patch < jmtek.diff;cd /sys/modules/umass;make -DUSB_DEBUG=1;make unload;make load'. I won't be surprised if it didn't fix your disk though. You might try to change UMASS_ADD_DELAY in { USB_VENDOR_OTI, USB_PRODUCT_OTI_JETFLASH2, RID_WILDCARD, UMASS_PROTO_SCSI | UMASS_PROTO_BBB, UMASS_ADD_DELAY }, to 'IGNORE_RESIDUE | NO_GETMAXLUN | RS_NO_CLEAR_UA'. Maybe FORCE_SHORT_INQUIRY instead/in addition to these. After modifying umass.c you need to rebuild and unload&load the kld. If you have umass (or whole usb) in your kernel ('device umass') you should comment it out, reinstall kernel and reboot. Then you'll be able to try different quirk values.

You have a dual-channel memory controller. If you insert one DIMM you perform 64-bit data accesses. If you install DIMM's in pairs (making sure you're using the right "paired" sockets), you perform 128-bit data accesses. Thus your access pattern is different between these two situations. I'm highly suspious that you can us 4x2GB DIMM's with out knowing the exact part number. Don't forget 2GB DIMM's are double-stacked and thus look like double the electrical bus loads. The same is true for older 1GB DIMM's. Install all the memory you would like to use into your motherboard, download memtest86+ version 1.40 from http://www.memtest.org, dd to floppy or burn the ISO, and report back your findings from running it.

No. This is due to the 3.5-4.0GB PA address range that the PeeCee architecture reserves for the PCI config space, AGP GART, memory mapped I/O, etc...

ipnat on RELENG_5/amd64
Dear colleagues, are there any issues with amd64 and ipnat? Trying to set up new multi-vlan router in our ISP network I've found very strange issues: machine hangs cold, no console (only comconsole is available) messages or reaction, more than one time, right after activating the first VLAN with active ipnat. Unfortunately I had no time for deep experiments yet; I'll try to set up DDB together with test network tomorrow, but for now I would want to hear your opinions. /etc/make.conf is fairly standard: CPUTYPE=athlon64 KERNCONF?= gwhx GENERIC NOINET6=yes NO_MODULES= yes MODULES_WITH_WORLD=yes COMPAT_4X= yes (and MASTER_SITES settings) Hardware issues should not be the source of the problem, as platform had been stress-tested by massive buildworlds, memtest86, etc. Thanks in advance.

It's not just a SATA problem. I get the problem (though more infrequently than it seems you do) on an Intel PIIX4 UDMA33 controller. The problem occurs on two different systems (one Gateway, one Dell), and only started happening some way through the 5.x life cycle, indicating to me that a serious regression was introduced (in 5.2, I believe).

On one I'm using geom_mirror, and on the other I'm using geom_vinum. Both suffer from the WRITE_DMA disconnect problem. The Dell, using geom_mirror, is now running HEAD. The Gateway running RELENG_5 is annoying because when a drive becomes disconnected, the only way right now to rebuild the plexes on the geom_vinum drive that is down is to reboot the system. (I've used "setstate" to flag the drive as up, but then "gvinum start" of any down plex causes an immediate panic/reboot.) Ian Dowse posted a patch to the freebsd-current mailing list for the WRITE_DMA issue (http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/htdig/freebsd-current/2005-February/046773.html). According to Dowse, the patch "attempts to clean up the handling of timeouts in the ATA code by using the new callout_init_mtx() function." It was successful for me. I still got the WRITE_DMA timeouts, but not the disconnects. I don't know if RELENG_5 has "the new callout_init_mtx() function." If it does, this patch might help there, too. > I opened a PR on this quite some time ago - IMHO this sort of breakage > should be considered a critical fault sufficient to stop a release until > its completely resolved.

It's disappointing the way this problem appears to have been silently ignored (except by those whom it afflicts), because it is a regression that occurred during the 5.x lifecycle. It's one thing to know that your hardware won't work properly going from 4.x to 5.x, but another thing to have it stop working going from one 5.x release to another. (Or maybe it isn't, given the strange "Early Adopter" status of the start of the 5.x release cycle.) Anyway, I'm glad you are trying to keep this problem in the spotlight, because an unreliable ATA subsystem is a miserable thing to have to suffer. :-( Cheers, Paul. -- e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Without music to decorate it, time is just a bunch of boring production deadlines or dates by which bills must be paid." --- Frank Vincent Zappa ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I will do some testing after the current configuration to be proven by uptime over one week, and try to find out how to repeat the panic. -- Young Lee On Wed, 30 Mar 2005 23:18:56 +1000 Michael Vince <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I am running 1 mildly busy new MySQL server thats running fine > on5.3-RELEASE-p5 #5: Sat Jan 22 04:54:07 EST 2005 from the generic confkernel > Its a Dell 1850 Dual P4 Xeon CPU 3.00GHz EMT64 with HTT enabled > > FYI I actually have a Dell 2650 thats not doing anything at the momentbecause > it had sluggish performance when I started to put some seriousburden on it. > > I recently updated to the latest MySQL to 4.1.10a from 4.1.5 with usingthis > set of settings (I hate using ports manually) > portupgrade -Rfri -m 'BUILD_OPTIMIZED=yes > BUILD_STATIC=yes'/var/db/pkg/mysql-server-4.1* > I copied the default large.cnf file to /var/db/mysql/my.cnf for > betterperformance but thats about it, I am still evaluating MySQL performance. > > To give you a remote idea how busy this MySQL server is, here aresome bits > running "mysqladmin extended-status" > | Bytes_received | 49227436 | > | Bytes_sent | 71933703 | > | Threads_connected| 25 | > | Threads_created | 42 | > | Uptime | 101775 | > According to MySQL manual Threads_created gives an idea of the load onthe > MySQL server. > > phpMyAdmin lists MySQL status in a much nicer way > This MySQL server has been running for 1 days, 4 hours, 38 minutes and28 > seconds. > Query statistics: Since its startup, 335,544 queries have beensent to the > server. >Total ø per hour ø per minute ø per second >335,544 11,715.47 195.26 3.25 > >select 204,621 7,144.3161.04 % > >insert 29,149 1,017.738.70 % > show keys 85,395 2,981.5525.48 % > > > This server is doing more things then I originally planned it to do,its also > running a Postgres 7.4 server that has over 500megs of dataand almost > constant 100% usage of disk IO according to top via "m", Ihave statistics > enabled on postgres but no way to show some simplesummaries. > > I run Apache2 in prefork mode and currently has around 350 averageapache > daemons > ps -auxww | grep -c httpd > 356 > Its doing over 1 million dynamic page loads a day (some page loadsdon't use > database) > > This server also is running 12 separate Java processes each at around200megs > of size. > > Since cvsuping to the latest 5_3 for release security patches andcritical > updates the server is been perfectly stable, before that I didhave kernel > panic reboot problems that I believe were caused be massivethread usage from > the java processes. > Although I have rebooted just a little while ago the servers uptime > iscurrently 33days. > > With your server how have you been updating your server to 5.3-P5release?

Ugh, I know of such an issue, but was thinking that it should be fixed by now. Can you make sure that you have your kernel/em(4) built with if_em.c 1.44.2.6 or later? The effect should simply be that it disables VLAN hardware support which doesn't seem to work with promiscuous mode. You could also try to disable it manually (ifconfig) to see if that improves on the packet loss. > Marko > > Max Laier wrote: > >On Tuesday 29 March 2005 20:28, Marko Äuk wrote: > >>Will that be fixed in 5.4 ?

I'd be more inclined to believe that there is an erroneous mapping by the OS, not that things are fundamentally broken in hardware. Agreed. This has been my favourite hypothesis all along. But isn't that what jhb is saying? Your SMAP table shows everything correctly. It's becoming hard to break through your pre-concieved notions here and explain how things actually work. No, there's nothing to break through. I think you're just having problems 1. expressing yourself, and 2. understanding what I'm saying. I have no preconceived notions. All I can see here is an antagonistic attitude on your part. What's the problem? You'll recall from my first message that I asked for suggestions about how to approach the issue. jhb provided some; you haven't so far. From what you've written, it's unclear whether you disagree with jhb or not. If you do, why? If you don't, what's your point here? It would be interesting to see the contents of your MADT to see if it's trying to use a 64-bit PA for your APIC. Any suggestions about how to do so? man acpidump How do you run that on a system that won't boot? You said the system worked with 4 GB (albeit detecting only 3.5 GB). My perception of this whole ACPI thing is that it is fixed in your BIOS (although it can be overridden by the OS). As such, the amount of RAM you have in the machine shouldn't change acpidump results. Is that not correct? Jon This is absolutely correct. It might though. Notice the change in APIC version with 4GB of RAM vs 8GB. The APIC hardware is the same, so that's already indicative of something fishy going on. I think that his APIC address is correct though as otherwise no interrupts at all would work and it wouldn't claim to have 24 IRQs on the APIC in both cases. One can always boot an i386 non-PAE kernel with 8GB in the machine and get an acpidump though. -- John Baldwin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve" = http://www.FreeBSD.org ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I can't see any reference to anything like an MADT there. Does that mean that there isn't one, or that ACPI can't find it, or does the section APIC refer to/dump the MADT? Here's the complete output of acpidump -t, anyway: MADT is the name of the table (Multiple APIC Descriptor Table or some such), but "APIC" is the 4 character signature of the MADT, hence seeing 'APIC' output from acpidump -t when looking at the MADT. Similarly, the MP Table is known as the MP Table, but the signature for the table that you search for in the BIOS is "_MP_". /* APIC: Length=104, Revision=1, Checksum=145, OEMID=VIAK8, OEM Table ID=AWRDACPI, OEM Revision=0x42302e31, Creator ID=AWRD, Creator Revision=0x0 Local APIC ADDR=0xfee0 Flags={PC-AT} Type=Local APIC ACPI CPU=0 Flags={ENABLED} APIC ID=0 Type=Local APIC ACPI CPU=1 Flags={ENABLED} APIC ID=1 Type=IO APIC APIC ID=2 INT BASE=0 ADDR=0xfec0 Type=INT Override BUS=0 IRQ=0 INTR=2 Flags={Polarity=conforming, Trigger=conforming} Type=INT Override BUS=0 IRQ=9 INTR=9 Flags={Polarity=active-lo, Trigger=level} Type=Local NMI ACPI CPU=0 LINT Pin=1 Flags={Polarity=active-hi, Trigger=edge} Type=Local NMI ACPI CPU=1 LINT Pin=1 Flags={Polarity=active-hi, Trigger=edge} */ Nothing strange here, and it is giving a 64-bit PA for the I/O APIC, albeit one that is < 4GB. One thing to verify is that the physical addresses listed here for the APICs (0xfec0 and 0xfee0) aren't included in the SMAP as valid RAM addresses in both cases. It might be useful to boot an i386 CD with 8GB in the machine to see if the MADT looks any different in that case. -- John Baldwin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve" = http://www.FreeBSD.org ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

If you take a 30 second glance at the code, you'll see that it is reporting the same units that the hw.maxmem tunable uses. ie: it is the LIMIT or Highest Address that the system has, not the sum total of all the parts. eg: see the machdep.c comment next to the printf * Maxmem isn't the "maximum memory", it's one larger than the * highest page of the physical address space. It should be * called something like "Maxphyspage". We may adjust this * based on ``hw.physmem'' and the results of the memory test. The SMAP lines are what you need to pay attention to. In the output you posted with 8G, you can see the 4GB going from the 4->8GB range, exactly. SMAP type 1 is "usable memory". -Peter ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

For the kernel size itself, just "ls -l /boot/kernel/kernel" :) A more interesting number might be the output of "sysctl hw.usermem", which I believe is the amount of memory available to user processes. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
