I applied the patch and rebuilt my kernel. It boots fine now with the floppy

The logic in fdc_acpi.c is a bit odd to follow, it sometimes goes to 'out' in
the success case which is unusual.  As a result, if your fdc device doesn't
have an _FDE entry in the ACPI namespace we wouldn't start the worker thread.
Try this change:

Index: fdc_acpi.c

I did this, but no change. It hangs at the same place, so I guess the added
panic() is never called.

Thanks.  It seems like the fdc worker thread isn't there and GEOM is stuck
waiting for that thread to do something (well waiting for the commands
that thread handles to be executed).

First step would be just add a 'panic' to fdc_start_worker() in fdc.c at
the end to make sure it is getting called.  (And when it drops you into ddb
you should be able to see the fdc0 kproc in 'ps' output).

 Just a "me too". But this is with VMware Fusion. If I disable the
 floppy from
 BIOS, the virtual machine boots. If I leave it enabled, it hangs.

Unfortunately, mine is sitting in a remote data-centre. The best I could
do was get the remote hands to show me the boot messages via photo, i.e.
it hung immediately after the "mounting root from .." text, the same as
described by others,

Um, ctrl-alt-backspace doesn't work for me, but ctrl-alt-esc does.

Thanks for posting that I'm not the only one, and it's not flakey
hardware.


I forgot to mention that -CURRENT from three weeks ago works. I rebuilt
-CURRENT today and now it hangs.
As I said in my Original post, April 18 works, not sure when it broke 
after that :(

Larry wasn't able to get into DDB when his box hung, are either of you able
to get into DDB when it hangs?

I have an, otherwise extremely reliable but ancient, Intel TR440BXA
motherboard doing this :-(

What drove me mad for a while is that I have an identical machine, with
exception of 10k RPM SCSI disks, which doesn't hang. I simply optioned
out "device fdc" and it's behaved ever since,

Oh, and it seems(!) like it's a live lock, as if I insert a USB drive, 
I

get the da0 messages.

Keyboard num lock light will change state, and ctrl/T shows NOTHING.


Can you break into DDB with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace and get the output of
'ps'?

I was NOT able to get to ddb.  I did send jhb@ a pic of the console.

Oh, and it seems(!) like it's a live lock, as if I insert a USB drive, 
I

get the da0 messages.

Keyboard num lock light will change state, and ctrl/T shows NOTHING.


Can you break into DDB with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace and get the output of
'ps'?

I'll try tonight when I'm home in front of the box.

I'll send pictures :)

The system does mount root, but never gets to the RC Scripts.  Root is
on ZFS, and NOTHING is in the floppy drive.

boot with floppy enabled doesn't.....

2016-04-30 Thread Larry Rosenman
On a current -CURRENT if my Floppy disk controller and device are 
ENABLED, we do NOT pass mount root, and the floppy disk

light is ON.

If I disable the floppy controller/drive in the BIOS, we boot.

This started after April 18.

I'm not sure what info to gather.
