Re: kqemu in 5.1
Could there be a KVM for OpenBSD? I have been wondering for a while if the answer is an absolute no because it could never be trustworthy enough, not likely to happen because of lack of interest, or somewhere in between.

I think I've read something about kqemu is deprecated in newer versions of qemu (1.0.1) Is this correct? Because performance without kqemu is horrible. Any solution? Yes, it was killed upstream since Linux now comes with its own hypervisor (KVM). AFAIK OpenBSD currently does not have a working hypervisor since it also can't be dom0 on xen until such time as xen stops randomly overwriting register contents at unpredictable times. So, as of now, any virtualization will have to be of the plain qemu or bochs variety. Sorry. Best, Weldon
bringing degraded softraid back online
Hi all, I'm running 4.9 release with 2x usb hard drives in a softraid raid1 setup. Both drives lost power so both volumes are degraded: softraid0: trying to bring up sd3 degraded softraid0: sd3 offline, will not be brought online running the following doesn't fix the problem, I just get the same message as above bioctl -c 1 -l /dev/sd1a,/dev/sd2a softraid0 The data isn't all that important but I would like to get it back - I don't have a secondary backup. Is there anyway to say force one volume back online so I can do a rebuild on the other? Finally, as much as I like openbsd's softraid am I better off just doing a nightly rsync between the drives for redundancy. Thanks, Peter

Hopefully you don't hit some userland:kernel compatibility issue too hard when you try to find it... but it would be very helpful. I tested 4.8-release kernel on 4.9-current userland (luckily apmd and zzz work), on the R600 suspend/resume works just fine, on the R700 suspend appears to work but the machine resets itself when I press the power button to resume. I got lucky and found that building the kernel with /usr/src/sys updated to 19 Aug 2010 introduces the change in behaviour, 18 Aug was fine (note: localised dates?). I had a look at the diff between 18th/19th and I think it might be this commit: http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-cvsm=128207276025618 Hope this helps, it would be great to have the R600 working again and maybe closer to finding a solution for the R700 aswell.

The Fn-Mute key combo even works right away, no configuring needed (magic!). It's super flimsy though, I've had it's optical drive repaired twice and the DC in has come loose and I'm terrified of bumping the screen (it's 4mm thick). It's not the worst laptop I've heard of as far as heat goes but it definitely gets up there--I can't really do CPU intensive things on it since it'll get up to 95degC and hover there really quick. Wifi is wpi(4) and except for one firmware glitch once, and sometimes things lagging out (seems to be correlated with heat) until I reset the card, I've never had any problems. I'm not sure how different the R600 is, though. Hi Nick, Thanks for the detailed reply, very helpful. A work colleague used to fix these machines, he mentioned that you might want to upgrade the bios to 1.6 which adds ACPI support, also pre 1.6 the optical drive wouldn't park during emergency shutdowns which might explain why you have had to repair yours. Anyway thanks again, I'll probably go ahead and order the R600. Maybe I leave the cpu throttled if it gets too hot... Regards, Peter
