I'm using two now in a test machine, it remains cool to the touch after a 'make world -j4' under FreeBSD 3.3 even though enclosed in a standard single fan cooled ATX case. It also outperformed a 10k WD Digital Advantage SCSI drive in the same task by about 7%. I have to really hand it to Maxtor for releasing some exceedingly high quality drives as of late. I'm concerned about possible poor interactions with the new ATA driver however.

I'm a little concerned about the cache size though. What is interesting to me is the K6-III/450's and their 64KB Level 1 cache and 256KB Level 2 cache. I am guessing that coupled with the FIC PAG-2130's 2MB Level 3 cache, there could be a significant performance advantage for memory intensive processing. I may put together a Celeron 500 system and benchmark it against a K6-III/450 with the FIC motherboard. Perhaps the K6-III cache size advantage is just theoretical. Processing performance is critical as I would like to minimize as much as possible the additional latency added by the firewall and filtering applications, as the amount of conditions being processed is extensive. > > I was also considering using a NIC from 3COM, or Netgear, or even > > Kingston, but it seems that the Intel EtherExpress PRO/100+ is currently > > the best option.

Aah, yes, I was thinking of the Pro/100 Intelligent Server Adapter with the i960 processor (I'm don't see any driver support for this one). Hmm... is there any supported NICs with a processor to offload the main CPU? What about the Thunderlan based cards?

Yuck. brandelf is an agreed-on standard (or is supposed to be) and it wouldn't be appropriate to abuse it. I'd be more apt to run the target app in a wrapper that makes a 'shut off translation for this pid' type syscall then execve()s the app. Kinda like nohup. > > I don't have any ideas at this point.

FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE hardware specs, advice/experience requested
Howdy all, I'm putting together some specs for a type of firewall appliance using the eventual released version of FreeBSD 4 (targeting 4.x because I need GCC 2.95.x as core compiler). My current machine specs use the following hardware which I am not yet sure will be well supported. FIC PAG-2130 Micro-ATX motherboard with 2/MB cache (Apollo MVP4 chipset) AMD K6-III/450 processor (2) 10.1GB Maxtor DiamondMAX Plus 40 7200 RPM IDE HDDs (mirrored) Poware IM-7500 IDE Hot Swappable IDE RAID device Intel EtherExpress PRO/100+ Dual Port NIC (this is recognized as two fxp devices?) I have not been running CURRENT extensively, so I would like to know anyone's experiences with any of the above hardware, or any recommendations on hardware with a better price/performance ratio at a low thermal (chassis is very compact). I was also considering using a NIC from 3COM, or Netgear, or even Kingston, but it seems that the Intel EtherExpress PRO/100+ is currently the best option. I understand the 3C905 may also be good, but it lacks an onboard processor. Anything with better performance and lower CPU utilization then the EtherExpress PRO/100+??

Re: Your misleading, no, LYING message to me
Hi David, My post is not really based upon the last Karl vs. Pohl thread. It is more on what I have observed quietly over the last few months . If the behavior is left unchecked you can rest assure that their will be more flares up. Again, to have waited for Karl to cool off is not that unreasonable to ask if the interested party wanted to reason with him. I supposed that there are some who are a virtuoso at calming and reasoning with extremely angry people. I have always opted to wait for the person to calm down and then try to reason with them.

Amancio, you are making assumptions, ones that are completely incorrect here. Karl's frothing started with a lot of raging at Steve on the ports list, and at the entire structure of ports. Poul didn't get into it until quite a bit later, and it was Karl who went after Poul, not vice versa. Poul reacted to someone accusing him of a complete lack of integrity (with no more evidence than McCarthy had in the 50's) merely by asking him to step back a little ways before he really annoyed folks. I wonder if I would react as well? What's more, while you're right that Poul's sometimes been abrasive in the past, his behaviour has been so above reproach here that I felt it necessary to jump in, just to highlight the fact, and maybe to avoid having people jump at the assumption you made (I referenced that directly in my post). I've never met Poul personally, but I *have* met Jonathan Bresler. That last post of Karl's, well, if that doesn't categorize him in your eyes, then I guess nothing will. Believe me, Amancio, Jonathan didn't deserve that.

Re: Your misleading, no, LYING message to me
I have to say that PHK has become the MASTER at pissing people off, ensuring that his opponent goes the deep end and staying calm so the blame obviously does not fall on him. Got to admit his formula is very very nice 8) By a long shot the problem is NOT Karl. It takes at least TWO to engage in a combatitive conflict -- that is if you are not schizophreniac. The proper tactic to resolve the conflict should have been to wait a cool off period and then slug it off technically. Nevertheless, instead of waiting for Karl to cool off and attempt to ration with him , it was much easier to drive him further down: hence thru censorship the "technical" argument was won with virtually no technical effort at all -- Like I said earlier very very nice tactic ! -- Amancio Hasty [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

Hmm, I think the only thing that will bite you in bringing in -currents libc_r are the socket.h changes that went in around Nov 24, 1999. I haven't tried it myself... YMMV Someone is working on merging -current libc_r into -stable, so perhaps if you want to hold out a little longer, it'll get done for you.

Yes, *AFTER* I was removed by a fraud who signed into HUB. *I* unsubscribed from those lists LATER, after resubscribing to current, posting my "where" command, and making it known that someone else had been tampering.

latest version of threads library
Sorry for sending this again but when I first sent it -current was embroiled in a flame war. I would like to use the latest threads source because my application does not work correctly with the signal handling bugs in 3.x's threads. However, it does not appear that I can change it without replacing all of libc. Is this correct?

Recent cat fighting in the FreeBSD mailing lists.
Karl, Hi, my name is Jonathan Bresler. I am the postmaster for FreeBSD. Usually, I tend to stay in the background and do the postmastering. The recent fractious behavior in the mailing lists has become so galling that I am forced to "come out from behind the curtain." Lets set the record straight on a couple items: 1. Karl, you are still subscribed to both of the "missing" mailing lists. I disabled the "which" command for those two lists: freebsd-arch and freebsd-security-notifications. That is why your subscription to those two lists did not appear when you sent the "which " request to majordomo. 2. I remove people that bounce mail. I dont send them email to tell them that I am reomving them for bouncing mailI sincerely expect that the notification email would bounce. A bounced email is one that appears in the list(s)-owners mailbox on hub. So, sites with problems that do *not* result in immediate bounces and that fix their mail problems before the email is aged out of the queue, dont have to worry. If you suspect that you have been removed, or that I might remove you, send me an email...explain that you have been having a mail problem and when you expect the problem to be resolved. 3. Everyone, the FreeBSD mailing lists are a community resource. While there are many lists. There is only one set of lists. We all share in that set of lists. When one or more people significantly degrade the quality of the lists, the only option is to remove that person from the lists. I have done this about six times in my role as postmaster these past 5 or 6 years. 4. Core recently published guidelines for committers. These guidelines included a minimal acceptable behavior standard. The recent emails fail to come within a country mile of meeting those standards. Which perhaps does not matter as the author is not a committer. Nonetheless, the author is degrading our mailing lists and I am empowered to act on behalf to the project to prevent people from degrading the quality of the lists. It seems that today around 4:51pm PST, Karl unsubscribed from freebsd-{security,hackers,ports,scsi}. So what's the upshot of all this? Karl, take a two week sabbatical from the FreeBSD mailing lists. Consider it enforced leave. I will remove you from the remaining two mailing lists: freebsd-{announce,security-notifications}. That's all folks! I am going back "behind the curtain" to continue my spam fighting efforts. Try to behave a little better out here. Some of the mailing list subscribers are trying to sleep. jmb -- Jonathan M.

One final note and a "bite me" to you
Just for those of you who think this whole "magical unsubscribe" is a "fluke"; All unsubscribes and subscribes to FreeBSD's lists must be authenticated. Majordomo is set to confirm all transactions. Whoever did this did it directly by logging into Freefall and editing the mailing list files themselves, or otherwise forged the request so as to get the "key" for the response. Have a nice year folks. THIS time, with only other people to benefit from my participation here, I'm not willing to play. Some of you will remember that about two years ago a SIMILAR forged unsubscribe was sent in for me during a heated discussion right here on this list. Theo was right in splitting off from you folks. I should have followed him a couple of years ago and done my own split. Now, its simply not worth it. This makes twice - and that's enough for me. As for you Paol, perhaps some day you'll stop trying to bullshit people. Occasionally when you do that you run into someone who has AT LEAST a single class in physical science and understands the uncertainty of measurements. -- -- Karl Denninger ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Web: http://childrens-justice.org Isn't it time we started putting KIDS first?

Karl, based on the behaviour you have shown and continue to show, I think you've given every reason for being removed from the mailing lists. But you appear only to have been removed from one, and anyway, you get warned before you're removed. So I suspect that it's been some other glitch; they do happen. On the other hand, I would be really grateful if you would go away and shut up. If it requires forcibly removing you from the mailing lists to get this to happen, then I'm in favour of doing so.

Poul claimed that his favorite device was *superior* in *ordinary* use. Then he admitted that he needed custom hardware (as you do as well) to get that kind of accuracy. Recommending something that is twice as expensive for people trying to keep network time when the INHERENT stability of the system clock is at least a couple orders of magnitude worse than the proclaimed PPS stability is just flat STUPID. Maintaining and defending that position when it is pointed out in bold letters that the uncertainty on the system clock and interrupt latency is FAR greater than the claimed 10ns resolution has only three possible explainations: 1. The poster has an interest in the device being shilled for. 2. The poster has an IQ below that of tap water's temperature in Celcius. 3.

Re: xntpd - VERY old folks, how about updating? :-)
Karl, I was my hands of this conversation. You aren't listening. We have custom hardware. We're a control and measurement system. The <10ns is needed for that control and measurement part. The sync we get of the system clock, like I said before, is on the order of a few hundred ns on pentium hardware and a few us on 486 hardware. That's why we spend more $$ on the hardware. If you don't like it, forget the chill pill and just play in traffic. I'm done with this conversation.

HEADS-UP newppbus for beta-testing
Hi there! FOR ANYBODY THAT USES ZIP/PRINTER/PLIP ON THE PARALLEL PORT UNDER -current A major ppbus(4) release is available for beta-testing. It includes the port of the ppbus framework to the newbus system. http://www.freebsd.org/~nsouch/ppbus.html provides usefull notes about the configuration of ppbus through the MACHINE file and the newppbus developement progression (stability, caveats...) The newppbus will come in remplacement to the previous standalone ppbus architectural system. I did not read recent announces about future FreeBSD 4.x releases :( Of course, newppbus introduction would better before any -stable jump. Note that, only probe/attach and function interfaces were concerned by the port and tests are consequently only regression tests. The port was not to hard and the result should not be too bad. Moreover the current ppbus high level drivers stress the system well I think: vpo (SCSI controller), lpt (with PS data filtered by ghostscript and interrupts) Feel free to contact me for more, Nicholas. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] / [EMAIL PROTECTED] FreeBSD - Turning PCs into workstations - http://www.FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

And the issue there is that its the COMPLETE timekeeping environment, not some bullshit-manufacturered claim of 10ns time stability that is CLEARLY bogus. As soon as you put a REAL workload on the machine(s) involved interrupt latency starts to cause trouble. Hell, just READING THE FRIGGING PORT to SEE the PPS output involves interrupt latency which is INDETERMINATE beyond a LOT more elapsed time than 10ns! > In actual reality, the GPSClock 200 is better than the specifications > indicate.

My entire point, David, is that there is ZERO actual, real-world difference between your reasonably-priced receiver and the shilled-for Motorola receiver that Poul and others like to promote at twice the price. Now if you're willing to stuff a custom PCI board (that in and of itself probably violates all manner of FCC regulations in terms of emissions) to keep nanosecond-level track of the number of "ticks" between seeing a PPS signal and the processor getting around to reading the latch, then Poul and the shills might be right on a TECHNICAL level - as long as they never actually USE that computer for anything, never access a disk, and never hit any other I/O port. But that's not the real world, its not a real application, and geeking-up something just to prove you can (while probably breaking the law in terms of emissions - the clock rates to get nanosecond timing accuracy are non-trivial, and that board would need FCC appoval here in the states) doesn't count. It also has ZERO relavence to those of us who want to keep time on our networks. It is precisely this kind of elitism and bullshit that I continually run into when trying to deal with the "treehouse" FreeBSD kids, and in this particular instance its so blatent that I simply refuse to shut up about it. -- -- Karl Denninger ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Web: http://childrens-justice.org Isn't it time we started putting KIDS first?

Corporate shilling does NOT go past me without a response, and Paol is completely full of shit in the context (time servers used by HUMANS for ORDINARY uses) that we were discussing at the time. Sticking custom PCI boards into a PC that count nanosecond-level clock transitions before the processor can get around to reading the input latch (at a cost of several hundred dollars MORE as a one-off science project) *DOES NOT COUNT*.

Its a bullshit argument David and is nothing other than BLATENT shilling for Motorola - at someone else's expense! Without a specialized board that counts these nanosecond ticks from the time it gets the PPS signal to the time the latch is read this kind of accuracy claim is worth exactly NOTHING. WITHOUT it, which is EXACTLY what REAL WORLD use of these devices is going to be running under, the impact is ZERO. Further, the ACTUAL impact in the real world of time stability to the dozen-nanosecond-range is ALSO zero, with the possible exception of physical control processes in the nuclear research field (such applications are NOT running on "standard" Unix machines!) Finally, in the world of sync'ing time between systems (say, in a multiple server cluster) that kind of precision is ALSO worth ZERO! NOBODY with off-the-shelf hardware can obtain repeatable 10ns results from a standard Unix machine. NOBODY.

Not possible without custom hardware. The inherent uncertainty in a PPS interface delivered through a parallel port in the interrupt context of a common grade-processor is greater than picosecond claims. Now the *integration* of many of these signals may not be, but the point still holds. That you FLUNKED your first science course where the uncertainty of measurements was discussed, and the boundaries on certainty were laid out, does not change those FACTS. You CANNOT declare a measurement (no matter what it is) to be more precise than the sum of ALL uncertainties in the measurement domain. This is a material FACT, and no amount of posturing changes it. PAYING for precision in a measurement source that is a few orders of magnitude beyond the response windows of what it is connected to is *STUPID*. This includes your claim of anything approaching 10ns resolution on consumer-grade computer hardware. > : I'm simply not interested in NON-GERMANE devices to the discussion; we were > : talking about FreeBSD on REAL computers, not specialty hardware for process > : control or nuclear physics experiments. > > Get a life Karl.

Perhaps that would reduce the population of this group by two people who don't deserve the term "scientist" applied to them. Scientists. BAH! You'd have to flunk first-semester physical science courses to not understand how the boundaries of uncertainty in measurements work, and why buying a reference source that is more precise than the LEAST PRECISE element in your entire measurement chain is almost always a COMPLETE waste of money. If you have two elements in a measurement chain, and one has 10ns repeatability and the other has 10us repeatability, the measurement you obtain is FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES equivalent to the 10us one. Even if the OTHER timebase is only accurate to 10us, the TOTAL inaccuracy is 20us MAXIMUM. What, Warner, is the INTERRUPT LATENCY (including processing time) specification on a Pentium? You know, the amount of time the chip requires to (1) recognize the INTERRUPT being dragged, (2) save the current context, (3) switch to the interrupt context, and (4) execute the FIRST instructions in that context. Now add to that the ACTUAL gate delays for ALL the gates between your piece of wire and the processor. Then tell me that this sums to ~10ns. You're smoking hard drugs - the processor cannot respond to the interrupt until (potentially) a multi-cycle instruction has been COMPLETED. Further, the act of responding itself requires several MORE cycles, as does the physical act (in the interrupt context) of reading the input latch. In fact, for an ISA parallel port, the speed involved in reading that latch is limited by ISA bus speed! Be careful with the pontification here Warner - some of us actually HAVE done hard real-time work and some of us also know a bit about how MPUs REALLY work in the REAL world. Posturing does NOT work with me on topics like this. You ain't getting no 10ns resolution off any production FreeBSD box without specialized timekeeping hardware that READS the pps output and has its OWN high-precision clock so it can tell the processor how many ticks elapsed from the time IT saw the PPS output until the processor got around to reading the latch. No way in hell. You want to claim otherwise? Fine - show me a gate analysis on the port you connect that clock to (from the wire to the processor's INTERRUPT pin), along with a gate propagation analysis on the processor and the execution path it must take, both worst and best case, from receipt of a signal on the interrupt pin until the FIRST instruction in the handler is executed.

latest version of threads library
I would like to use the latest threads source because my application does not work correctly with the signal handling bugs in 3.x's threads. However, it does not appear that I can change it without replacing all of libc. Is this correct? Or is there some simple change I can make to the files in libc that include pthread_private.h when compiled in libc_r?

tip features (cdelay and ldelay)?
Hi, I have a couple of really dumb devices that I use 'tip' to talk to. One is a Motorola 6811 microcontroller and the other is an old EEPROM burner. I find that 'tip' overflows these devices when I'm sending Motorola s-record and Intel Hex formatted files. It looks like tip's 'cdelay' and 'ldelay' features do just the trick. However, they are disabled, surrounded by '#ifdef notdef' sequences. Just to make sure, I re-enabled them locally, and re-implemented the apparently lost 'nap()' function to make sure that these features work for my application, and they do. My question is: does anyone remember why these were disabled in the first place? Is there an equivalent replacement feature that I can use instead to pace the outgoing characters so that I don't overrun dumb devices with no flow control?

Many of them do, but it's still not meant for precision timekeeping and the exact relationship between its PPS pulse edges and UTC's second boundaries may not be precisely specified. It's not a good idea to use a GPS unit not specifically made for timing as an NTP reference clock. Sorry to plug myself, but I offer a GPS timing unit that is made specifically for timing use. It's $375 (quantity one) and more info is available at http://www.gpsclock.com/ PPS output is specified as +/- 1 us of UTC second boundary.

Re: several procmail jobs hang ...
Well, found out, that I don't have any problems using the previous version of procmail 3.13.1. So it's solved for me now. The remaining question is, is this a procmail 3.14 bug, or does the new procmail version introduce some new features in area where in -current is something wrong. Not easy to say for me ...

several procmail jobs hang ...
A few days ago I updated -current and build /usr/local completely new. One remaining problem is, that procmail jobs seems to hang. First it was a port problem, I installed some (for me) basic services in /home/local and procmail tried to call /usr/local/bin/formail. Now I recompiled procmail using normal /usr/local as PREFIX, but the jobs still hang. After some time they seem to timeout and mail seems to be delivered. Can't say exactly if I have some mail loss.

[solicite review and confirmation of tcp for IPv6 patches]
Hello, I prepared tcp for IPv6 patches to the current. I would like it to be reviewed and confirmed in many environment before committing it, because I think updating tcp code is very critical to system stability. (Apps for tcp/IPv6 is not yet ready, but I think confirming that it doesn't harmful to IPv4 environment is important at first.) The patches are placed below. http://paradise.kame.net/v6proxy/diana2/shin/work/freebsd/kernel-tcp.2103 http://paradise.kame.net/v6proxy/diana2/shin/work/freebsd/trpt.19991228 Anyone interested, please give me comments for them or please try to apply those patches to some of your freebsd-current machines. Either confimation on INET6 defined kernel and INET6 non defined kernel will be helpful.

I don't have one handy, BUT I saw this SAME problem across oh, 20 machines. Every one. Every time. And oh, by the way, when one of them (mine) was upgraded to the newest ntpd, it *WENT AWAY*. Thus, I think its quite reasonable to say its not the clock and must be the code (since the hardware could not have magically changed :-) > Do you have any refclocks we can use to measure against ? Had one at MCS (Spectracom WWV receiver), but its there and I'm here. It appears from their strata change (from 1 to 2; I chime off them) that they turned it off. I should have taken it with me when I left :-) BTW, speaking of which, does anyone know of a reasonably-cheap GPS receiver that (1) has an external-able antenna that will work with somewhere between 50 and 100 feet of lead, and (2) has the appropriate pps outputs and such so it can be used for this? -- -- Karl Denninger ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Web: http://childrens-justice.org Isn't it time we started putting KIDS first?

Weird interaction between cvs and a recent kernel
Hello, I'm rebuilding my -Current box. it's been reinstalled anew from the FreeBSD 4.0-19991229-CURRENT snapshot. I have on another box the full repository of FreeBSD (source, ports, docs, ...) on another box, running 3.3-Stable and exporting the repository via NFS. I've tried to remake the world to the latest sources I had (got on 12/31 around 4PM GMT). I can't get the "cvs co src" to finish properly : each time I launch "cvs co src", the kernel crashes with page fault while in supervisor mode : page not present (I don't have a serial console, so this is not the full message). The instruction address for the faulting instruction is always the same, in the "generic_bzero" (from a "nm" run on the kernel). The running process is always "cvs". I have been able to check the sources out (one subdirectory after another) and the machine has completed a full make world. I also run the corresponding kernel. with the new sources, there is the same problem with cvs : I have not been able to check out the ports tree in one step (same error, in the same routine). The machine works fine : I have just completed a X11 3.3.5 build. As I have got plenty of RAM, I'm not quite sure a full crash dump would be usable.
