Re: Howto setup multiboot with GPT?

/x86/boot/loader.conf and then change bootfs on the fly: amd64# zpool set bootfs=rpool/x86 rpool amd64# reboot x86# zpool set bootfs=rpool/amd64 rpool x86# reboot -- Artis Caune Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler

build stamps

If you are making world or release twice from one source, you will get some binaries and lot of libraries which differ because of time stamps: # make buildworld # make installworld DESTDIR=/home/build1 # rm -r /usr/obj/usr # make buildworld # make installworld DESTDIR=/home/build2

stopping callouts

Hello FreeBSD-hackers! what is the right way to stop callout which is initialized with mutex: callout_init_mtx(callout_function, my_mtx, 0); should I lock mutex before calling callout_drain() or not? man page says: callout_drain() is identical to callout_stop() and if the callout has an

ioctl

Is it correct to use code like this instead of copyin() / copyout() ? Kernel module gets pointer to structure which resides in userland memory space and modify it directly!!! userland: ioctl(tp_fd, TP_GET_TP_STATS, tp_stats) kernel: tp_stats-hooked = hooked; (freebsd 5.x, KLD) -

Re: kernel modules programming: struct proc question

type casts in KLD

Hi! I'm writting kld module, and have some weird problems with mixing types and casts. e.x. if (long + u_long + u_long 0) don't work, but if (long 0 - u_long - u_long) works fine! and code like this: cur_rate = min_rate + \ (((max_rate - min_rate) * \
