[osol-discuss] Regarding implementation of MSI-X interrupts In Solaris 10 8/07

2008-06-18 Thread Pradeep
Hi,
   I have a 10gig network driver , iam trying to implement MSI-X 
interrupts in this one and facing 
some problems.

   Though  my network card supports MSI-x /MSI but if i try to use 
ddi_intr_get_supported_types , it is always returning one (1 for FIXED 
interrupts) .   If i continue to use DDI_INTR_TYPE_MSIX it fails immediately 
(that's expected as   ddi_intr_get_supported_types returned 1).   Iam using 
PCI-E slot only.

This MSI-x is working very well in linux counter part. Is this MSI-x  
supported in 10 8/07


lspci also shows MSI-x is supported 

lspci -v

Capabilities: [f8] Power Management version 3
Capabilities: [e4] MSI-X: Enable- Mask- TabSize=32
Capabilities: [d0] Express Endpoint, MSI 00

uname -a
SunOS unknown 5.10 Generic_120012-14 i86pc i386 i86pc

cat /etc/release 
Solaris 10 8/07 s10x_u4wos_12b X86
   Copyright 2007 Sun Microsystems, Inc.  All Rights Reserved.
Use is subject to license terms.
Assembled 16 August 2007

Note :  
echo ::interrupts | mdb -k -- also doesn't show any of MSI-X Type devices ( May 
be there are no 
MSI-X supported devices attached)

 Sure. This code

  943  if (fsp)
  944  kmem_free(fsp, sizeof (*fsp));
  945  if (svp)
  946  kmem_free(svp, sizeof (*svp));
  947  if (jvp)
  948  kmem_free(jvp, sizeof (*jvp));

 will behave very differently if those pointers are NULL rather than 
 uninitialized.



I was interested in a useful reply for the OP case

Did you run a test with the original filesystem, or what do you like to tell us 
here?

 Yes.

 No.

   
That's OK. But (liking Solaris as much as I do,) it seems a shame to

 See the ID mapping portion of the CIFS guide.

   
Thanks, I'll go look for that now.
  The reason I ask is that I'm really looking for 
 a solution that will let me set both linux and Solaris to share 
 usernames and passwords with Windows, while Linux and Solaris share 
 files through NFS.
 

 The solution we use works for Solaris.  We made no changes to Linux.

 You can still interop with Linux and use Windows identities provided
 that you have a Unix name service with users and groups that are the
 equivalents of Windows ones.  SFU will do as a such a name services.

   
Is SFU the only option right now? Is MS still developing/supporting SFU? 
I thought it was either dead or at least on life support only now?
What are my choices if the people who run the AD and Windos 
infrastructure refuse to install SFU?
 So how does Solaris handle this (if it does?) If it does it in simliar 
 way to WinBind, is it too much to hope that it uses the same algorithm 
 for SID--UID as WinBind? I mean I can deal with a 1 time chown, but to 
 

 It's not the same algorithm, except for name-based mapping, where it's
 close enough.
   
I'm not sure I get this statement, but maybe I'll get after I read all 
the other blogs and docs you pointed me to. Thanks!

   
 do what I need on the Unix/NFS side I really need Solaris and Linux to 
 agree on UIDs and GIDs. Is there someway that Solaris can export it's 
 tranlation to linux through an AD-NIS converter?
 

 No, but if you can use SFU (i.e., assign UIDs and GIDs in AD itself)
 then you're fine.

 We're considering adding more ID mapping options too.

   
What types of things are you considering? (If you can talk about them?)
 Where's the best place to read up more on this?
 

 Try the CIFS guide.  There's also plenty of blogs linked to from the
 storage blog:

Hi

At least the ttc client works, you just need to copy some motif libraries over 
form Solaris 10.

For the server component, haven't tried myself yet. Might work if you copy the 
libraries over.

As motif is not opensourced it's therefore not included in OpenSolaris 05.2008.

Starting binaries via cron without specifying full path might be
the issue, I think. Cron knows nothing about your PATH
environment variable. Check also the (execution) rights of
`txalarm`. If it is script, check the correct path to
interpretter defined on the first line. 

There might be other issues stem from the `txalarm` code itself. 

OT: you might also benefit from redirecting stderr to the log
file, since cron wont inform you (root) about the failures
during `txalarm` execution unless it finishes (once a day?).

No interop with Linux with NFSv3.  Try using CIFS.

 I'm not sure I get this statement, but maybe I'll get after I read all 
 the other blogs and docs you pointed me to. Thanks!

idmapd supports just these ID mapping methods:

 - directory-based name mapping
 - rule-based name mapping
 - ephemeral ID mapping
 - local SID mapping

The first one works by adding attributes to your AD or native LDAP
schema to name an entity's equivalent entity on the other side.

The second works by providing local rules that tell you how to map an
entity on one side to one on the other.  These rules also work with
names.

Ephemeral ID mapping dynamically allocates UIDs and GIDs to Windows
entities on demand.  The pool of UIDs and GIDs used for this is the 2^31
to 2^31-2 range of UID/GID values.  We took pains to make sure that the
system does not store these anywhere permanently, and we restart the
allocations on reboot.  ZFS stores SIDs now.

Local SID mapping is used to map non-ephemeral UIDs/GIDs to RIDs
relative to the local SID when there's no other way to map them.

 We're considering adding more ID mapping options too.
 
   
 What types of things are you considering? (If you can talk about them?)

Direct support for SFU (right now you have to configure either DS-based
name mapping or local name rules + nss_ldap with schema mapping to get
SFU support).

Also, perhaps we might want to add some algorithmic ID mapping schemes.

 Thanks!

You're virtualizing inside a virtualized environment.  I've never seen
that work in any combination and I'm pretty sure it can't work and thus
is not supported.

Why not install VirtualBox for Mac and install inside that?  Having
Parallels, VirtualBox and VMWare Fusion all installed at the same time
works fine.  Running all of them concurrently however is another matter ;-)

The counter-example would probably be VM/CP, which can (if I recall

virtual details right, and can be useful in debug, but you're right
that the usual PC-type environments just don't bother going that far

 discussion in the form of lightning talks either from what the

I'm no expert on most virtualisation s/w but I know with vmware, it has code in
place to specifically stop you trying to run vmware inside vmware. This is
presumably because the vmware guys know it isn't going to work and it shouldn't
be tried.

If you are on Inidana, it may be that the installation is incomplete and misses

 You can still interop with Linux and use Windows identities provided

 Is SFU the only option right now?
 

 If you want NFSv3 interop with Linux, yes.

 Other options: interop with Linux via CIFS.

   
Is SFU required to use only NFSv3 between Solaris Machines?

Is NFSv4 required for any of this?
 What are my choices if the people who run the AD and Windos 
 infrastructure refuse to install SFU?
 

 No interop with Linux with NFSv3.  Try using CIFS.

   
But Linux SMB mounts are done as a single UserID right?


If IT will allo me to run my own AD sub domain, can I run SFU only 
there, and pass the parent domain User/Passord info through to Solaris 
and Linux?
That's not exactly ideal, but might ork better than getting them to run 
SFU the way I'd need them to.

I'm guessing SFU basically adds a AD-NIS proxy to the AD server? Does 
it appear as a NIS server to the Linux and Solaris clients? or something 
else? NIS+?
Any idea if a Solaris NIS server can be a slave to the SFU one (assuming 
my guess above is correct?)
 It's not the same algorithm, except for name-based mapping, where it's
 close enough.

use an IPC other than doors, of course.

Oh, one more thing: there's no range of UIDs/GIDs in Linux that can be
stolen for ephemeral ID mapping, the way we did for Solaris, because
Linux used unsigned ints for uid_t/gid_t from the get go.

 The solution we use works for Solaris.  We made no changes to Linux.

 You can still interop with Linux and use Windows identities provided
 that you have a Unix name service with users and groups that are the
 equivalents of Windows ones.  SFU will do as a such a name services.

  
   
 
 Is SFU the only option right now?
 
   
 If you want NFSv3 interop with Linux, yes.

 Other options: interop with Linux via CIFS.

   
 
 Is SFU required to use only NFSv3 between Solaris Machines?

 Is NFSv4 required for any of this?
   
 What are my choices if the people who run the AD and Windos 
 infrastructure refuse to install SFU?
 
   
 No interop with Linux with NFSv3.  Try using CIFS.

   
 
 But Linux SMB mounts are done as a single UserID right?


 If IT will allo me to run my own AD sub domain, can I run SFU only 
 there, and pass the parent domain User/Passord info through to Solaris 
 and Linux?
 That's not exactly ideal, but might ork better than getting them to run 
 SFU the way I'd need them to.

 I'm guessing SFU basically adds a AD-NIS proxy to the AD server? Does 
 it appear as a NIS server to the Linux and Solaris clients? or something 
 else? NIS+?
 Any idea if a Solaris NIS server can be a slave to the SFU one (assuming 
 my guess above is correct?)
   
 It's not the same algorithm, except for name-based mapping, where it's
 close enough.
  
   
 
 I'm not sure I get this statement, but maybe I'll get after I read all 
 the other blogs and docs you pointed me to. Thanks!
 
   
 idmapd supports just these ID mapping methods:

  - directory-based name mapping
  - rule-based name mapping
  - ephemeral ID mapping
  - local SID mapping

 The first one works by adding attributes to your AD or native LDAP
 schema to name an entity's equivalent entity on the other side.

   
 
 That sounds the most striaght forward, but that's the one Linux doesn't 
 support yet right?
   
 The second works by providing local rules that tell you how to map an
 entity on one side to one on the other.  These rules also work with
 names.
   
 
 Even that sounds good to me.
   
 Ephemeral ID mapping dynamically allocates UIDs and GIDs to Windows
 entities on demand.  The pool of UIDs and GIDs used for this is the 2^31
 to 2^31-2 range of UID/GID values.  We took pains to make sure that the
 system does not store these anywhere permanently, and we restart the
 allocations on reboot.  ZFS stores SIDs now.

   
 
 That sounds like it might be great in some situations, but I don't think 
 it'll ork for me... Than again after I read everything I might change my 
 mind.
   
 Local SID mapping is used to map non-ephemeral UIDs/GIDs to RIDs
 relative to the local SID when there's no other way to map them.

   
 
 By local, you mean local to the local machine? or can these mappings be 
 stored in NIS or NIS+? and shared beteen machines?
 For that matter can the Rule Mapping mentioned above be distributed in 
 NIS, NIS+, or someother (non-AD) LDAP?

 Either way I bet Linux doesn't have anything that matches up.

 So, what are you trying to do?
   
 I need to setup a new farm of software build servers. They'll consist of 
 all different versions of Linux  (multiple versions of RHEL, and SLES)

 I also need to setup a bunch of NFS fileservers to support this build 
 Farm. The Developers all have indows desktops that are clients of the IT 
 'CORP' AD domain, and they'll also want access to the files on the

 machines that end up with filesystem to share via NFS and/or SAMBA, but 
 I think those will be 'nice to haves' that I can work around if it can't 
 be made to work.

I'm glad I asked :)

OK then the prescription is:

 - setup a Unix nameservice for the Solaris and Linux systems

- AD SFU *will* do if you can get Linux's nss_ldap to use it (I'm
  sure you can).  And AD SFU *will* make admistration easier for
  you.

 - setup either directory-based name mapping or name-based mapping rules
   for the Solaris file servers.

 - Make sure that for every Windows user and group that will be
   referenced by the Windows clients (when talking CIFS to the Solaris
   servers) there exists a user and group in the Unix nameservice and
   corresponding mappings.

- Keep in mind that Windows groups can own files, so you may need to
  ensure that each Windows group (and even users) maps to a Unix
  user and a Unix group.

 I just don't want to be in the bussiness of creating and managing user 
 accounts. Today, the IT dept has several separate user databases, that 
 they create accounts for new employees in when they join the company. 

As long as you intend to use NFSv3 you have little choice.

 Changin passords is a problem, and is rare. Currently one of the places 
 they create an account (in addition to AD) is a linux NIS server (with 
 only passwd and group maps) they run - Basically this is the only UNIX 
 machine in the company they've agreed to setup, manage and support. 

Make sure that your Linux and Solaris clients can use Kerberos to
authenticate users via AD.  If you can make sure that AD usernames can
be used as Unix usernames (keep them short and free of funny characters)
then this is trivial.

 Currently most of the linux machines either use no Name service (most of 
 them are like this) or a few join that NIS domain.

That's going to have to change.

 Thus, I'd be willing to pay money to install a sun nss_something, or 
 pam_something modules, plus any other software needed to get a 
 compatible mapping mechanism on linux as you have on Nevada.

There are third party offerings out there.  Also, Samba has solutions in
this space too.

Don't bother compiling manually.

It has wine and tons of other package spec files. Install as per instructions 
and after syncing with svn do something like this

$ CC=gcc CXX=g++ pkgtool --download --autodeps build SFEwine

It will build (hopefully) a nice solaris package in ~/packages/PKGS. Add it

Hi Kendall

Looks like great work. Can you give a synopsis of drivers and other 'stuff' you 
are considering to open ? Some specifics might catch attention of a bright 
spark somewhere. I looked at the site, but couldn't find any specific 
information on what hardware the driver bundle is for.

Also, were the drivers created using docs under NDA etc ? If so, then there 
might be legal issues surrounding open sourcing the stuff that you might want 
to double-check.

I'm setting up a home file server on opensolaris b86
My system is running with  AMD Athlon 4400+, 1GB ram, rge 100Mb/s ethernet

I'm able to create the CIFS shares and able to access the data from my windows 
laptop. Now, when i try to stream some HD video the performace is pretty bad, 
to the extent that the video is not watchable.

I tried to set the ZFS arc max setting to 50MB but that did not help. I do see 
that my available physical memory becomes very low ~40MB.

can any one help?

Thanks in advance.

All starts OK but can't communicate out, and the interface in /var/adm/messages

This card does work at 1000Mbs/Full Duplex when same pc boots into windows.

Can ping myself, but no where else.

There must be some differences here, let me know if there is anything else I

Maybe off topic, but did you try to investigate the network
layer between both CIFS and your player (netstat -i,..)? Is it
CIFS/ZFS issue(?), I mean did you try to download files via ftp
for instance and checked performance(?), or did you try to
