About Marvell Yukon drivers skgeinit and sky2

Hi, As I understand, there are 2 flavors of the Marvel Yukon driver. One is for Yukon-I devices, and is called skgeinit, and other is for Yukon-II devices and called sky2 driver. Looking at the release notes for 7.0, it looks like this driver which was in sys/dev/yukon, is now present as the

Common OS/kernel code between freebsd and linux

Hi Folks, I am not sure the right forum to ask this question - is there any effort done to find portable code between different OSes, particularly freebsd and linux? Specifically, the networking layer could be portable between the 2 and there could be some set of APIs to call into the OS

in Linux which achives the same result... And I think there are a few people(who were) involved in Linux development on this list, so I posted it here. Regards, Anjali - Original Message - From: Julian Elischer [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Anjali Kulkarni [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Michael Lucas [EMAIL

Zones

Hi, This is probably not the right place for this qs., but I am posting it here since it's a quick easy one.Does something like the FreeBSD zones exist in Linux ? Thanks, Anjali

Re: Zones

Thanks for your reminder. I guess I didnt realize they would consider simple and easy beneath their dignity. Truly sorry for the trouble this one email caused you and others, Regards, Anjali - Original Message - From: Michael Lucas [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Anjali Kulkarni [EMAIL PROTECTED

Kernel Memory Limit

Hi, Can any one tell me how to increase the default kernel memory limit? ie., the memory from which mallocs occur(from kmem_map). I tried making the VM_KMEM_SIZE option to the maximum(200M), but it didnt seem to have any effect:(.M/cmemory is1GB. Thanks, Anjali

TCP graph

Hello, On the subject of tcp performance graphs, I have taken a few tcpdumps of some pages, to understand the entire process in more minute detail, and to co-relate the theory with the graphs in practice. I have plotted a graph of cumulative data received at the client side vs.time

tcpdump

Hi, I am trying to make tcpdump work across 2 machines, ie trying to monitor a machine's IP packets from another machine. Just typing 'tcpdump host ip2' from the first m/c, say ip1, is not working. However, typing 'tcpdump host ip2' on ip2 works fine. Do I have to configure BSD packet

tcpdump

I forgot to mention,the line pseudo-device bpf 4 is there in the kernel config file Anjali

Re: domain sockets question (don't laugh)

Hi, You have said that reader exits when there is no more data to read, and that does not necessarily mean it has read all data being written by writer. And if the reader exits before writer finishes sending all data, it will give you a broken pipe. You have to either make the no. of bytes being

scheduling

Hi, I am trying to use the sched_yield/ksched_yield function in the kernel, and it returns a success value, but actually does not yield to another process. I suppose this is because the kernel process is higher priority than any user level process??(Like I try and login from another

scheduling

I forgot to mention, the kernel is 4.3 so it runs to completion, (no pre-emption). I just want to know if ksched_yield can be used like the general purpose 'yield', which did yield in the kernel. Anjali

Right, that was my question too, doesent seem connected with pre-emptive kernels... - Original Message - From: Greg Lehey [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Julian Elischer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Peter Pentchev [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Gersh [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Bernd Walter [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Anjali Kulkarni

setjmp/longjmp

hi, Does anyone know whether it is advisable or not to use setjmp/longjmp within kernel code? I could not see any setjmp/longjmp in kernel source code. Is there a good reason for this or can it be used? Thanks, Anjali

Panic!

Hi, I wrote some kernel code(a kernel proxy), which was giving problems ie hanging after x no. of connections, and rebooting on its own saying syncing disc, lost 97 buffers! Now, after booting, it shows all regiters like eip, etc. and says System halted. Can someoen let me know if I can

hi

Hi, Thank god for small mercies! I loaded an older version of the kernel, and it worked! Basically, I was too worried to think before I wrote that last mail! Sorry for the trouble! Though any tips for my mistakes would be much appreciated:)) Anjali

inet_aton

Hi, I want to use the function inet_aton() in the kernel code. However, I found no kernel equivalent of this function int the freebsd sources. I could find inet_ntoa(), but not inet_aton(). Is it named by some other name or how can I locate it? Thanks, Anjali

User-Level upcalls

hi, Does any one know how to perform user-level upcalls from kernel TCP/IP stack? If I wanted to get an upcall every time a data packet arrived on a socket, how can it be done? Can I use signal handlers for this? Thanks, Anjali

Re: User-Level upcalls

an interrupt) when it receives a data packet at the TCP layer, to avoid polling in user code to check if data has arrived at the socket. I will read about kqueues, and fcntl which I dont know much about:) Thanks, Anjali - Original Message - From: Josh Osborne To: Anjali Kulkarni
