Thought I should check before upgrading my T23 as a build platform .. I haven't done this before, and will be relying on the howtos for 6.X I recently upgraded two of my net4801s to RELENG_7 - the only problem I have seen so far, is that savecore(8) attempts to do non-aligned DMA transfers and fails. I haven't had time to dig further into this issue yet, though. Thanks, Brix. I'm wondering if that's still (again?) to do with item 3 at http://www.soekris.com/Issue0003.htm ? I've no idea whether a similar 'quick-fix' to that given for FreeBSD 4.X to /sys/dev/ata/ata-dma.c would work with the 5.5-S and 6.1-R code I have here, noting that the alignment is now specified in bytes rather than the earlier bytes-1, so '4' is presumably the value needed for dword alignment. Hmm, ok, trying to dig a little deeper .. rev 1.118 notes say: Add support for a the National Geode SC1100. Thanks to Soekris engineering for sponsoring a Soekris 4801 to make this support. but I couldn't find anywhere in 1.118 or in later versions up to 1.147 (RELENG_7, HEAD) that does anything other than 'ch-dma-alignment = 2;' (Not that me not finding it means much :) I also noticed at 1.137.2.2: Add support for using DMA on dump, greatly speeds up the dump process. Copying Soren in case he may have a bead on this, but it hardly seems any impediment to preparation or building for it when the box arrives.

usb card reader problem
Howdy! I'd like to know how card readers, using umass, behave on future 6.3 or 7.0. On my amd64 6.2, after loading umass module, only first time I connect usb cable to it I see reading of da devices. No daxs1 in /dev direc- tory. Next remove/connect of usb reader gives nothing at all. Any news? Of course, it is always possible I missed some necessary step.

This is a well-known issue with the USB support of some BIOSes (these days, actually most of them). The BIOS uses protected mode, while BTX also does, and this clashes. You'll need to wire up an IDE or SATA optical drive, or fiddle with PXE to get FreeBSD installed.

I guess it was the debugging options in userland. If someone wants details anyway I'll provide them, but since it is no longer that interesting I'm leaving it as is if no one speaks up. It's always interesting to get third party confirmations on such benchmarks so please post them :) Better late than never... So to recap, these tests were done on single-processer AMD64 machines with 512 MB of memory. So nothing as interesting as SMP scalability and such, but still interesting to see an increase in absolute speed in the simple case. They were also performed maintaly with the 4BSD scheduler. Due to the reason for running these tests, they were also made with MyISAM rather than InnoDB, prepared as such: sysbench --test=oltp \ --mysql-table-engine=myisam \ --oltp-table-size=100 \ prepare And run as such: sysbench --num-threads=16 \ --max-requests=10 \ --test=oltp \ --oltp-table-size=1 \ --mysql-socket=/tmp/mysql.sock \ --oltp-read-only \ run The MySQL version is 5.0.45_1 in both cases, compiled from ports with default build settings, and (on purpose) default MySQL runtime settings (empty my.cnf).

Re: FreeBSD-BETA2 Signal 11 During Install
Hi, Yes I have tis problem since beta1! Signal 11 appears in sysinstall when it try to get INDEX from ftp site. At the end of this operation appears signal 11 and core dumps (the same as Russell Doucette has). So I have installed 7BETA2, without X - it allow me to avoid installation of binary packages after installing ports collection. Then I compile the cvsup from the port collection and syncronize src-all with RELENG_7 and doc-all, ports-all with CURRENT. After in I recompile all system (kernel and world). For kernel I have my own config. but the problem has lefted! When sysinstall try to read INDEX from ftp site appears signal 11 (as I think) and programm crushes. On the screen appears such error: Bus error (core dumped) I have amd64 FreeBSD7 beta2 (this problem was in beta1 and beta1.5) Mihail. ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This will probably lead to the same BTX loader problem as with USB CD-ROM drives. The same is probably applicable to booting from USB sticks, and I'm not even sure FreeBSD supports booting off those. AFAIK the only non-PXE alternative is using the UltraBase docking station, which has an optical drive bay connected via ATAPI. But it's rather expensive; here in .nl, it's about EUR 175 for the dock, and EUR 130 for the CD-RW/DVD drive (not even a DVD writer!!). ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Source upgrade from 5.5 to 6.X not safe?

It appears that my filesystems got marked dirty in the reboot loop that ensued, and I had to manually fsck them. I figured after that it might boot, but alas problems remained, so after grabbing a disc1 image of 6.2 on CDROM I moved kernel.old back and kernel to kernel.bad. Now, sometimes I work fast and loose with the rules of upgrading, but I was surprised that I managed to royally screw up things. Any pointers would be appreciated before I shave off a few years of my life again. I think you might have no choice but to omit the reboots, because the world contains lots of stuff that has to do with the kernel (like mounting). So just go into single user mode and do the usual stuff: # make installkernel # mergemaster -p # make installworld # mergemaster # shutdown -r now and pray to your deity of choice. If the reason for your problem is something else however you're stuck with a system that can not run with your old kernel. So better backup before you try. In general, new kernels can reliably run old user spaces, but not new user spaces on old kernels. This is because new user spaces often grow dependencies on new system calls, etc, that have appeared in the kernel, and a system call being missing can lead to rather extreme unhappiness if, say, it's in libc :-). When I upgrade a remote systems, I'll actually almost always run a few days with the new kernel and the old user space to make sure everything has settled nicely before doing the user space upgrade, which is harder to revert. Reverting to an old kernel is easy, and leaving the door open is likewise easy -- as long as you don't installworld.

Am I reading that correctly? In general, is it possible that the installkernel did /not/ complete correctly before I shut down? Is it ever possible that the machine could get put into an indeterminate state when doing installkernel on a running machine?

Best way to use more that 4 gigs of memory ?
I have been doing some experiments with runnign 32 bit processed on and amd64 kernel over the last couple of days and am wondering what the general feel is for the best way to use over 4 gigs of memory.

This astounds me and I intend to investigate why, but given it is rue then that rules it out as a viable solution for deploying stuff. Which leaves either 32 bit processes on a 64 bit kernel or alternatively running under PAE on a 32 bit kerenel.

Why is 7.0-BETA1 different from another -RELEASE in hostname resolving order? AFAIK, at least on 6.2-RELEASE, the order is first IPv6 and then IPv4. However, 7.0-BETA1 try to lookup in first IPv4 than IPv6. Here is the evidence: This is most likely because 7.0 now installs the address selection policy table at boot time by default: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/etc/defaults/rc.conf.diff?r1=1.304r2=1.305 Now if you have (which I guess is your network configuration) A. a global IPv4 address and B. a 6to4 IPv6 address, and have a candidate destination addresses C. a global IPv4 address (like 210.226.20.15) D. a native global IPv6 address (like 2001:218:422:1::15) then getaddrinfo() will prefer the combination of {A and C} because these addresses have a matching scope while B and D don't.
