Doh ! Thanks - this was indeed the problem.

Re: 12-current, since 323508 / Sept 13 - smartctl / smartmontools - unable to query drives

2017-10-04 Thread Ultima
Just recently tested smartctl (a few days ago) r324135 and I
found that the auto detection seems to be broken but manually
selecting the device type works. Are you positive you tested
every device type?

I was a bit surprised to find that atacam works for my onboard
controller and the HBA only works with sat,auto and scsi

Please specify device type with the -d option.

Use smartctl -h to get a usage summary

Even with specifying the type, I can’t query the drives.  I’m trying to nail 
down the commit now, I think its between r320087 and r323508.

Anyone have any pointers ?  Smartmontools hasn’t changed since Feb, so by all 
indications, this is a regression in FreeBSD-current/-head.

Thanks !

http://dpaste.com/1B04AVB

I believe that this patch should do the right thing on all version of FreeBSD,
so it could be better to integrate it upstream, if possible.

Without the patch the port fails with errors like:
./freebsd_nvme_ioctl.h:34:8: error: redefinition of 'nvme_command'

that isn't new.

The nvme stuff is because smartmontools defines nvme stuff that

CAM ABI change requires recompile of hald and smartmontools

2013-12-15 Thread Stefan Esser
A kernel built today shows the following messages:

ata2: FAILURE - zero length DMA transfer attempted
ata2: setting up DMA failed
cam_periph_mapmem: attempt to map 4294954816 bytes, which is greater
than 65536
cam_periph_mapmem: attempt to map 4294954832 bytes, which is greater
than 65536
ata2: FAILURE - zero length DMA transfer attempted
ata2: setting up DMA failed
ata2: FAILURE - zero length DMA transfer attempted
ata2: setting up DMA failed
cam_periph_mapmem: attempt to map 4294954832 bytes, which is greater
than 65536

I found that stopping hald was causing this. A freshly compiled
hald solves this problem.

This ABI breakage deserves a heads-up, IMHO, since the messages
look quite frightening. I did not observe any damage on my system
with 5 SATA drives in a ZRAID1, but I'm going to perform a scrub,
just to be sure.

freebsd-9.0 smartmontools and ada devices

2011-10-18 Thread John Hay
Hi Guys,

I have upgraded my desktop from 8.2-stable to 9.0-RC1 (from source), using
a GENERIC kernel. I have installed the smartmontools-5.41_3 package from
a mirror and found that smartmontools does not like the ada devices anymore.
Previously (8.2) I had a GENERIC kernel, with ahci loaded in loader.conf.
There an older smartmontools (5.40) worked without a problem on the ada
devices.

The output of smartctl looks like this:

#

Just to follow up on myself. :-( I have build smartmontools from ports and
even though it is the same version, it works. So for me the package
amd64/packages-9-current/All/smartmontools-5.41_3.tbz did not work, but the
port does.

 Just to follow up on myself. :-( I have build smartmontools from ports and
 even though it is the same version, it works. So for me the package
 amd64/packages-9-current/All/smartmontools-5.41_3.tbz did not work, but the
 port does.

CAM ABI was changed right before RC1. The issue was mentioned in the Ken'
announcement. The packages were obviously built with the old headers.

Experimental port of smartmontools available

2003-10-11 Thread Eduard Martinescu
 All,
 
 The current CVS version of smartmontools
 http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net now has support for FreeBSD.
 
 A couple of notes:
 
 1) SCSI support is there, but has not been highly tested.  It uses CAM, so
 any version of FreeBSD with CAM should work (hopefully)
 
 2) ATA support requires ATAng, or a fairly recent CURRENT. 
 
 I do plan on eventually creating a /usr/ports/systutil/smartmontools and
 submitting to the appropriate place, but haven't gotten there yet.
 
 Please try it out and send any problem reports to the smartmon-support
 mailing list.
 
 Thanks,
 Ed
