ntfs with big files
Hi, I have a ntfs partition with rather large (about 3GB) files on it. When I copy these files on a ffs partition they are corrupted. When I try to checksum them directly from the ntfs partition the checksum is not correct (compared to the same file on a fat32 partition copied with Windows). I tried this (with same behaviour) on i386 5.3 release and on i386 last week current. I'm willing to do some testing to fix this issue but don't really know where to start. -- Manuel Giraud

Re: beaglebone black
Hi Alexey, i asked myself same question. As i read http://www.openbsd.org/armv7.html - Planned Projects Support for USB on BeagleBoard and BeagleBone models. Seems there isn't any usb-support yet. Netherless i bought a LevelOne USB-0401 (axe AX88178) usb-ethernet card for upcoming support. I also found a dmesg where usb-controller seems recognized. I want to replace my home router with this solution, therefore two nics are needed. I`m going to make a try today afternoon.

Re: why icmp timestamping is enabled by default ?
I use ntp already. I am about to switch icmp timestamps off (security people are afraid of that setting), just curious what was the purpose of it. 2013/10/10 Theo de Raadt dera...@cvs.openbsd.org: it turned out that OpenBSD allows icmp timestamping by default: net.inet.icmp.tstamprepl=1 what was that done for ? well, why not? if you have some program vulnerable to a the attacker knows the time attack, i don't think turning off icmp timestamps will save you. the attacker could reasonably guess that your system time is going to be close to his system time. unless you are going to deliberately set the clock wrong on all your systems. fixing the vulnerability seems like a better idea. there is also this thing called ntp that is becoming rather common. if you're not doing time distribution to your systems, ah, i see the problem.

Really 5.2 version? Why don't you try latest relase or better current which will have much better support of HW in your laptop. I tried 5.3, first, and it installed OK but at boot it stops at mtrr: Intel MTRR check after that is normally the USB stuff. I am not sure but I think I have to go into some kernel debugger to get anywhere from there and I needed to have OpenBSD setup so I can poke around using Michael's book. What was the reaction on -current? Anyway the laptop is noisy with Linux and Windows and I have tried disabling fan always on in the BIOS to no avail, it is basically either badly made or the BIOS is to be blamed or..., which is why I decided to see what other people are using as a laptop and draw some conclusion from that. Thanks for reading. I would like to get something quieter and that also runs OpenBSD without major issues. I saw a lenovo thinkpad x131e on futureshop but it is kind of small on the screen size 11.6 and I am not sure if OpenBSD will work on it. Does anyone care to mention what they are using.

Thinkpad R61 does not fully resume
With the latest i386 snapshot, my Lenovo R61 suspends, but does not fully resume. The behaviour was the same with the previous snapshot. After apm -S (or closing the lid) and then Fn+F4 (or opening the lid) I can see the disk and power leds blinking as if comming back up, but the screen stays black, and the machine is not remotely accessible. I haven't tried yet whether wifi or USB come back up. However, typing 'halt -p' blindly at the black console shuts the machine down correctly. See the dmesg below; acpidump here: http://stare.cz/dmesg/lenovoR61.tar What can I do to help OpenBSD better support this?

Re: My VPS is acting slow (KVM)
My VPS provider says it will take them a couple of weeks to enable virtio. Does it really take that long? Almost certainly not. Enabling virtio is just a change in a single config file, and a full stop/start of the VM. However, they may have to move your VM to another host (one with a newer libkvm perhaps) which could take upwards of several minutes. Or days even, if they copy your data down to a portal drive, walk downstairs, down the street a few dozen blocks... maybe to the next town, sleep, eat, etc etc etc You get the idea. -Bryce Chidester br...@cobryce.com

If your machine has network, jsg would probably be happy to see what's going on in /var/log/messages while the machine loses boot... Thanks -- installing the firmware package resolved the issue. I just assumed that the firmware updater would grab it if needed. According to jsg@, the KMS code is able to figure out that the firmware is needed, and not do the video change if it's not installed. Obviously, that still fails from some cards: the KMS code doesn't get an error, and the video change still occur.

Short question is - device drivers at all, or just for example usb ethernet is crossplatform? This is a huge over-simplification, but devices are a combination of how you work the device and how you talk to the device. Drivers aren't for i386/amd64, they are for (for example) an Intel 82557 NIC on a PCI bus (fxp(4)), or a RT2800U on a USB bus (run(4)). The fxp(4) can be used on anything with a PCI bus, and the run(4) can be used on anything with a USB bus. A device chain might go something like this: CPU - PCI bus - PCI-PCI Bridge - USB interface - USB Hub - USB NIC (now go look at a dmesg...you will see exactly these kind of chains) Once a particular device is supported, it is just a matter of getting the stuff /up to/ its interface supported. So again on the MacPPC platform, the PCI bus is supported so you can plug PCI cards into a mac that MacOS would never have dreamed of supporting and they will Just Work on OpenBSD. You could plug a USB2 PCI card into a MacPPC, and then plug a USB wireless adapter into the USB2 card. Sometimes it can get pretty surreal -- iirc, there is a PCMCIA slot adapter available for the SBus SPARC machines, which OpenBSD supports (supported? not sure anyone uses this enough to guarantee it is still working). So...you can take a SparcStation 20, put a PCMCIA adapter in it, plug a USB port into the PCMCIA slot, and plug a wireless device into the USB port...and make your sparcstation 20 work on a wireless network, something the original designers may never have imagined. (major exception: if the driver was written by someone with an i386 mindset, it may not work on anything else without some TLC, typically endian issues. And sometimes if the combination is really obscure, it may never have been tested.) Now to your specific question: OpenBSD does not yet support the USB port on the Beaglebone Black...but once that is done, then yes, a whole lot of USB devices should Just Work. Until then, none of them will work. Nick.

The oreboot is the copy of the previous /sbin/reboot--and the size matches exactly the /sbin/reboot file on another system from about a month before the time_t change. I want to argue with you on this but I find no grounds. :-/ Here's my update script from the first system I tried to upgrade at work. In this case I tried running pwd_mkdb (since I'd checked that it was a static binary) before rebooting. Every command after the extracting base failed. as it should. #!/bin/sh path=/usr/releasedir/ export RELEASEPATH=$path # where you put the files cd ${RELEASEPATH} rm /obsd ; ln /bsd /obsd cp bsd.mp /nbsd mv /nbsd /bsd cp bsd.rd / cp bsd /bsd.sp rm -rf /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/* cp /sbin/reboot /sbin/oreboot files=xserv xfont xshare xetc xbase game comp man base for i in $files do echo $i tar -C / -xzphf $i* rm -f $i* sync done /usr/sbin/pwd_mkdb /etc/master.passwd cp /dev/null /var/log/lastlog cp /dev/null /var/log/wtmp /sbin/oreboot However, it just occurred to me that I was in a tmux shell as root--so it was *not* ksh! I'll bet it was tmux that was croaking! I've gotten in the habit of using tmux since it's been in base so if my internet connection drops the script doesn't stop, leaving the whole system in an inconsistent state--which I had happen about halfway through extracting base one time. Hmm--should (and can) tmux be switched to a static binary in base? It's great to have that safety net if either side of my sometimes crappy internet goes away. Thanks, as always, Nick! Jeff could you have had something in /etc/rc.shutdown ? I'm thinking this might be it -- any binary invoked here would generate a core dump, and might prevent the reboot. Maybe we should be recommending a /sbin/oreboot -q to skip anything else that happens with a reboot(8). Just flush the disks and reboot now, dang it! I am a bit tight on time right at the moment to do a lot of investigation on this, but if you can figure out what went wrong here, I'd be very curious... For example, you should look around for *.core files that have a timestamp near where the upgrade took place? If what you are suspecting is the case, you should find an oreboot.core file. I think you won't; I think you will find something else. Nick.
