Re: pfsync between 8.4 and 9.2

2013-10-02 Thread Pete French
 Warning: I don't know internals, I'm just a user.

but one who reads the doucmebtation closer than I do apparently :-)

 According to pf(4), FreeBSD 9.2 matches OpenBSD 4.5.
 Specifically, pfsync(4) says:

   The pfsync protocol and kernel implementation were
   significantly modified between OpenBSD 4.4 and OpenBSD
   4.5.  The two protocols are incompatible and will not
   interoperate.

 So I think your experience was predictable, more or less
 :-) Maybe the information deserves a more prominent place
 than a man page. The detailed release notes of 9.0 did
 mention the upgrade pf but not consequences of pfsync.

Thankyou! This completely passed me by. I will go ahead and upgrade
the other machine today in that case, as it should then all work
fine. Thanks very much for pointing this out, as it was worrying me somewhat!

cheers,

-pete.

My 9.1 system is (physically) broken at the moment so I only have 8.2 
sources to hand, but in any case it looks like the RTC - the only source 
of clock time available on resume, at least on i386 - was either stopped 
on suspend when the RTC was updated from system time, or - perhaps more 
likely? - couldn't be properly read back to restore time on resume.

Is there logging of this suspend and resume cycle in /var/log/meesages ?

ccing Alexander, resident master of clocks last time I tried following 
RTC suspend/resume with a view to maybe implementing resume-on-alarm.

cheers, Ian

Re: pfsync between 8.4 and 9.2

2013-10-02 Thread Pete French
Just to follow this up for anyuone finding the thread, after upgrading
the other firewall to 9.2 as well, pfsync works fine agai. The failover
actually seems a lot faster in fact, so it looks like a big improvements.

thanks,

Would schedulers get their own binary?  Wouldn't it just be compiled into
the kernel?  Or are you proposing a modular scheduler using the bike
algorithm?

Re: ports binary upgrade question for 9.2

2013-10-02 Thread Zoran Kolic
 You don't have to recompile all ports when switching to a new _minor_ version.
 Minor versions are binary compatible. So in this case you don't have to do
 anything.

Thanks for answer!
I'm aware of compatibility. However, I'd like to have it all
fresh, especially for luakit. I cannot find the server, to
put the name in conf file for pkg. Txz packages are probably
not ready yet.
Further, reading manual, I assume portmaster to be happy to
upgrade binary. I used it to install ports, recompiling it,
due the lack of bin files for 9.1. -P should recompile only
if it cannot find binary file. -PP would avoid any compiling
whatever happens. To my understanding.
Best regards

 Zoran
