If so, is there any kind of time frame where this fix might be MFC'd to 6-STABLE? I guess I'm still just a bit stunned that a bug this obvious not only found it's way into the STABLE branch, but is still there. Maybe it's not as obvious as I think, or not many folks are using it? All I know for sure here is that if I had upgraded to 6.1 my network would have been crippled. Try 6.1-STABLE, especially make sure you have $FreeBSD: src/usr.sbin/rpc.lockd/kern.c,v 1.16.2.1 2006/06/02 01:20:58 rodrigc Exp $ for usr.sbin/rpc.lockd/kern.c, and see if this helps. I am running STABLE on all my test boxes, and the problem is very much there. It's not everything that locks up though. I'm able to bring X up with twm, but unable to launch any Gnome or KDE applications without them being stranded in a lock state. I sure would have loved for your suggestion to be correct. For what it's worth, all the boxes I'm working with are on STABLE no more than a week old. I ran fresh build worlds on all of them before getting the rest of my configs going.

I'm not exactly informed as to the specific workload yet, however i know the database will have several million rows and be larger than 10GB.

Is anyone out there using FreeBSD for something of this size? I am hoping that everything will work out well, and the client will be happy. This would generate some good PR for FreeBSD, as it is a very large international company and it would be the first FreeBSD server (that i know of) of this type there. Thanks, any input will be appreciated. I'm running MySQL 5 on Linux at my work (4 disk RAID 10/32G RAM/4xsingle-core). It has a DB of 100 GB and much more than millions of rows and the preformance is very good with quite a lot of users via the webserver. But I do not have any comparisons with Oracle or other systems. Unforunately we don't run FreeBSD at work except for my workstation. The size of the db is not the problem. The load is more important. Are there a lot of sequential queries or simultanious? Do you do a lot of locking/selects/updates/insert? Are there thousands of tables or just 1? I do recommend a 64 bit OS if your hardware supports it, because it makes allocating memory for MySQL a lot easier.

If I was going to do FreeBSD, I might look into Postgres instead of MySQL; well, I might look into something else than MySQL under many circumstances. I've gotten some pretty good use out of OpenBase, for another choice. I believe the front-end application is MySQL dependent, but what is so much better about PostgreSQL? I understand that it has some more advanced features, but if they are not used, then what is the advantage? (I really like the InnooDB storage in MySQL) I'm not sure whether avoiding deadlocks and using row-level locking by default qualifies as advanced features, but unless you use InnoDB with MySQL, you don't get that from MySQL. Postgres has been around for a lot longer, and isn't as volatile as MySQL seems to be; also, it avoids some of the needless timer overhead that MySQL seems to enjoy, and the less-accurate-but-much-quicker gettimeofday() under Linux helps MySQL on that platform versus FreeBSD. As for the disk configuration, using RAID-5 is one of the worst possible choices for a database; using multiple RAID-1 mirrors or a RAID-10 config would probably do a lot better in terms of performance and reliability. Is RAID5 really that bad when a lot of fast disks are used and the controller has a decent cache with a BBWC? Thanks for the feedback guys. Yes, RAID-5 really can be that bad, unless your database is read-only or read-mostly. Lots of small writes will perform badly under RAID-5, even with a battery-backed write-cache in write-back mode... Example: writing 1 bit on 1 disk needs to read some info from all disks to recalculate the parity.

Re: 6.0-BETA2 as reliable webserver?

In the following month we will launch a webshop which will have a estimated 1000 full hits in the first weeks (estimated through calculation of the marketing-departement). I am writing the webshop, and have installed the webserver. Because of issues with our housing, we can't put our HP webserver to use, since it produces to much noise in our very small building. Since we are moving in a few months, we decided to use a HP laptop instead (reasonably fast CPU, 512 Megs) since we had a few to spare. What do you mean by 1000 hits? Is it 1000 customers or 1000 http requests? 1000 hits a week is 1000 / ( 7 * 24 * 60 ) = 0 hits per minute or 5 in an hour. If your laptop crashes every 10 minutes there is a change no customer wil notice it. The toy is currently set up with FreeBSD 6.0-BETA2, Apache 2.0, MySQL 5.0 and PHP-5.0 with all the reasonable modules. Everything is compiled from ports. No changes to the kernel yet, no world-rebuilding done. I trust the laptop enough to get the job done, but I wonder if 6.0-BETA2 will be up for the task. I heard rumours that it should be more stable and faster then 5.4-RELEASE (which I use mostly nowadays), but it IS beta after all. On the other hand, I get the impression that 6.0 is the release of choice for deploying anything on a laptop (considering that darned Pentium-M). Another thing, I do not fully trust the combination of Apache 2.0, MySQL 5.0 and PHP 5.0, since they are all quite new in the frontlines. This would be a decent testcase for 6.0, but the thing is... I can't afford any crashes (this webshop is considered to settle the future for our company) and we are talking about a laptop here. Funny to settle the future for a company this way. I hope your customers aren't reading this. ;-) I will post all problems not yet reported to the list, but if anyone of you would like to share his or her opinion on this matter, please let me know. Will 4.11-RELEASE perhaps be a better choice? You are asking a silly question. It comes down to I'm running BETA software. Can I expect this to be STABLE?. If it is stable, it wil say stable in the version number. Except for Apache all your software is beta, but from sourcecode which is quite mature for some time. You can only answer this question by inviting 1000 (virtual) friends and ask them to buy something in your webshop.

No, the kernel has COMPAT_FREEBSD5 and COMPAT_FREEBSD4 by default, so just keep those and your shared libs around and you're golden. Of course, ports like lsof which dependon the kernel version will have to be rebuilt, but that's true no matter the version change... I get contradicting advice. You tell me I'm golden 'cause of the compat_xx settings; others tell me it's way better to *recompile* all portsto get the cleanest system. Wat is the best way to get the cleanest FreeBSD-6.x system without installing from scratch? Recompile each port? Or use the COMPAT_FREEBSD5 layer? You are answering your own question I think. Does the term COMPAT_FREEBSD5 sound as the 'cleanest FreeBSD-6.x'? No. You get the cleanest system by recompiling all ports. (portupgrade -fa is your friend here.) COMPAT_FREEBSD5 is meant for running FreeBSD-5 binary applications. If you have them it's ok. If you recompile everything you don't need the COMPAT_FREEBSD5 stuff. If you don't have the source of some of your FreeBSD-5 applications you have to run with COMPAT_FREEBSD5. And the switch to 6 is easier because your 5-applications keep running.

FreeBSD seemed to be a good alternative, so I get the 6.0 release a few days after it was released. Being a Gentoo person, I like the ports system, but with limited time on my hands, I also like the compiled packages. I can get a working system from packages then compile my own ports as need or want be. Or so I thought. I installed from two CDs, and got a working KDE system. Now, I want to do Firefox from ports with my own make.conf for P4 optimisation. Good! So, I sync with the sources using cvsup (just like emerge --sync) change to the Firefox ports directory, type make and enter dependency hell like has never been known before. Everything that depends upon GTK2 must be updated before Firefox can be compiled! I thought that FreeBSD would be more stable than Gentoo and Linux distros in general. I now find that there is the most major release step (5.4 to 6.0) and within a matter of a few days later, both Gnome and KDE are subject to huge updates that require many hours (or maybe days - it's not done yet) of CPU time. Maybe I am missing something. However, I just cannot see why this is right. What I thought that FreeBSD would give me that Gentoo did not is a coherent system within which deveopment was co-ordinated. Instead, I seem to find the opposite. The core group can offer a major release of the OS, while missing the fact that two hugely important development groups are just days off their own major releases. The portstree is tagged for a release, so if you cvsup to the tag for the release, you get the 'supported' ports. If you cvsup to the most recent portstree there is always a change for a big update. The idea behind the KDE/GNOME update is to commit the stuff after the 6.0-RELEASE in stead of before too have stable KDE/GNOME packages in the release. BTW: use the port sysutils/portupgrade. This fixes a lot of dependency troubles. BTW2: if you cvsup to the latest portstree, you can't expect everything to be available in packages. In FreeBSD ports are the focus, packages come next (currently).

Re: Recurring problem: processes block accessing UFS file system
On Tue, 22 Nov 2005 00:54:09 +0100, Greg Rivers [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've recently put up three busy email relay hosts running 6.0-STABLE. Performance is excellent except for a nagging critical issue that keeps cropping up. /var/spool is its own file system mounted on a geom stripe of four BSD partitions (details below). Once every two or three days all the processes accessing /var/spool block forever in disk wait. All three machines suffer this problem. No diagnostic messages are generated and the machines continue running fine otherwise, but a reboot is required to clear the condition. This problem occurs during normal operation, but is particularly likely to occur during a backup when dump makes a snapshot. There doesn't appear to be a problem with gstripe, as gstripe status is UP and I can read the raw device just fine while processes continue to block on the file system. I tried running a kernel with WITNESS and DIAGNOSTIC, but these options shed no light. If I catch the problem early enough I can break successfully into kdb; otherwise, if too many processes stack up, the machine hangs going into kdb and must be power-cycled. I'd appreciate any insight anyone may have into this problem or advise on turning this report into a coherent PR. I have a machine with 5.4-STABLE with the same problem. It hangs every couple of days if I make regular snapshots. It is a remote machine which I don't have easy access to. I disabled the snapshots and since than it didn't hang a single time. I hoped it would be fixed in 6.0, but this sounds the same.

Re: HZ in RELENG_5? tcp_subr.c related

So amd64 users will see a ten-fold decrease in tcp_isn_tick() running, but i386 (and other) users will see no change. Now that 5 is STABLE, I guess we are stuck with it, but in an era of slow 2GHz systems, it seems like a questionable choice. I know that there are a lot of folks running old hardware (like my trusty old K6), but they are a minority and changing HZ is not a big deal. Why make the majority live with 100 on fast systems or know enough to manually change it? Has there been discussion of changing this for V6 or is there a reason I missed for keeping HZ at 100 in the iX86 platforms. In 6-CURRENT, HZ is 1000 for amd64, i386, and ia64, but 100 for other platforms (i.e., ppc, arm, and alpha). I'm not opposed to merging the HZ change to RELENG_5 at some point, but given that occasional nits, such as the TCP nit, are turning up, I think it's worth waiting until after 5.4. Let's keep STABLE stable. If there are timing issues with HZ of 1000 in V5, we clearly would not want to change before they are resolved. Happily, I have not see these on my faster systems and have not increased HZ on anything 1 GHz. If I do see network problems, now I know another place to look, too.

syscons options and memory use
Hello, The syscons manual page says: The following options will remove some features from the syscons driver and save kernel memory.

Some system files are installed with 'schg' for security reasons; installworld must remove this flag in order to install a new version of these files. However, when securelevel 0 system immutable flags may not be turned off (see init(8)). An attempt to remove the system immutable flag (set 'noschg') will therefore fail. As a result, installworld fails. Canonical answer: Reboot into single user mode to perform the installworld as documented in UPDATING and section 19.4.1 of the handbook. I understand the problem, otherwise I wouldn't have securelevel 0. Doing a remote install in single user mode isn't always possible. And than it isn't very nice to break the installworld with an error. Using the idea of 'fail early' it would be very nice too have a check for securelevel in the installworld Makefile.

You can run FreeBSD on your desktop at home because you have the skills, the time, the dedication.

I am moving my servers from Linux to FreeBSD, because FreeBSD gives me the manageability, stability and security that are more important to my clients than the bleeding edge features that often make it into Linux first. I am generally inclined toward Open Source software over proprietary one, but will pragmatically mix and match to obtain what works best for me rather than dogmatically pretend that my favorite OS is the best and its filesystem is the brightest and its license is the only acceptable distribution form. I agree 100%. Most of my machines (i.e. the machines which I own or which I'm responsible for to operate) run FreeBSD, but some also run Linux (Debian), Solaris or Windows. I used to have OpenBSD, too, but it stopped working for me (a long story). And currently I'm evaluating to move one of my privat machines from FreeBSD to DragonFly BSD, because some of its features would be very useful. Still, of all of those systems, FreeBSD is (currently) my favourite. It's particularly versatile to work well for all kinds of different purposes, including servers _and_ desktops. Which brings me back to the topic of this thread: is there anybody out there with the skills to cleanly solve this shameful situation in which rebooting FreeBSD results in unclean mounting of ext2 (and potentially other) volumes?

Swap space is actually used in this case, thank you!
If you look at the code which handles tmpmfs it is used for diskless
booting.
By default, mdmfs creates a swap-based (MD_SWAP) disk -- from
mdmfs(8).
So there is no swap usable for ramdisk.
Should I send-pr a bug in mdmfs(8)?
Maybe I'm missing something, but tmpmfs works malloc-based by default.
tmpmfs is not an easy way to set up a swap-based ramdisk. It is meant to
setup diskless systems easily.

I'm not at home now so I can't check, but I remember that the snd_emu10k1 doesn't say [GIANT-LOCKED] in dmesg, while all my other soundcards do.

Based on my tests, 'make index' is only faster with -j on smp machines (the default is -j2, which only penalizes UP by a second or two, but nearly halves the build time on an smp machine). But -j1 saves on mem usage on UP I presume, so it makes my workstation more useable while being 2 secs.faster. Is this set by an INDEX_JOBS make var in /etc/make.conf?

backporting tail from HEAD to RELENG_5
Hello, The command 'tail' has a very nice feature in HEAD. It can do 'tail -f' on multiple files. Is it possible that this gets backported to RELENG_5?

Re: poor sound quality in 5.3 stable
On Wed, 19 Jan 2005 00:03:20 +0100, Olivier Certner [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, Do you mean that the sound seems unclear all the time? I've also had some problems with sound on my FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE, but a different kind of. Sometimes I hear crakings while playing mp3 files with XMMS, although my computer's load is very low. I use snd_emu10k1 sound module as you do with a Creative Sound Blaster Live! 5.1. There is another driver that may be worth trying here: http://chibis.persons.gfk.ru/audigy/. I'll give it a pick when I get more time. I have problems also with sb live. There was discussion before that increasing some buffer in the driver made the problem less. And enabling PREEMPTION would help also. But since the last discussion I got my onboard audio (ESS) working, which is ok for me. I also wondered that the snd_emu10k1 is marked as MPSAFE, while other sound drivers aren't, but the others perform better. But I don't know if it has anything to do with it.

wi0 hangs on boot (regression in 6.0)
Hello, When I boot my laptop with a wi0 pccard inserted, the machine locks after probing wi0. I can't go to the debugger also. The fun thing is, that it probes if I also inserted my ep0 card before booting. But if I than remove both and only reinsert the wi0 it hangs again. Suspend-resume gives the same hang. In 5.x (I think 5.3) it worked ok. So I think there is some regression in this driver. I am not working on my laptop now, so I don't have a dmesg available, but I will make one later if needed. This problem is there since I started using 6.x and that is from 6.0-RC until 6.0-STABLE (last week). Do more people have this problem? And what info can I give to help debugging this problem?

Any thoughts how I can solve this?

I think I solved it myself. Cvsup didn't remove the old *.diff files from
/usr/src/usr.bin/awk, so the build was producing a very corrupt file.
Removing the awk source and re-cvsup-ing gave me a better working version.
Ronald.

cvsup6.nl.freebsd.org doesn't work
Hello, I don't know who to contact about this, so I send it to the list. The server cvsup6.nl.freebsd.org doesn't give new data for a couple of weeks now. Many thanks in advance for solving this or forwarding this to the rights person.

Re: Bringing up new Intel non-legacy system

This is a rack-mount server that has no PS/2 or PCI legacy, its all PCI-E expansion, and only USB peripheral. I have had a lot of issues: First, the DVD is SATA, however I can work around that by setting IDE mode in the BIOS. With FreeBSD 7 BETA the install kernel always seems to hang in USB initialization, if I disable ACPI it gets further, but ultimately still no joy. Oddly enough, STABLE OCT snapshot will actually install but again only with ACPI disabled. Anyone have an idea why 6.X would actually faire better than 7, this surprised me?! And, is the ACPI subsystem likely to be the source of the problem? I would really prefer 7 running on this, and of course with ACPI working. Oh, the system also has LSI MegaRaid SAS 1078, which I was able to install using STABLE. Cheers, Jack My computer at home (6.2-STABLE/i386) hangs on usb if my external harddisk is attached. But since I disabled USB in the BIOS it works fine. FreeBSD does still detect USB, so I think it was some conflict between BIOS initializing the hardware and FreeBSD doing that. Maybe you have the same problem.
