Assuming your termination is correct, that would increase chances it is a driver issue even more. That's rather what I've thought all along. Going to each single disk is what you really need to do now in order to make a definite finger point to the driver. To each single disk? What do you mean? What I mean is temporarily pull the Quantum disk, load a scratch system on the Seagate, run some disk testing utility or some such that beats on the disk, and see if you get errors. Then repeat the process with just the Quantum in the system. What that tells you is the following: 1) If the seagate runs fine and the quantum errors, it's an incompatibility between the quantum and the adaptec. Someone may be able to write around the problem in the driver code, but most likely the driver developer will not be able to do this. Submit a send-pr as a bug mainly to archive the problem in case someone else has a similar problem in the future, and find another Seagate disk to replace the Quantum. 2) If the quantum runs fine and the seagate errors, it's an incompatibility between the seagate and the adaptec. Someone may be able to write around the problem in the driver code, but most likely the driver developer will not be able to do this. Submit a send-pr as a bug mainly to archive the problem in case someone else has a similar problem in the future, and find another Quantum disk to replace the Seagate. 3) If both run fine individually then it's an incompatibility between the Seagate and the Quantum. Someone may be able to write around the problem in the driver code, but most likely the driver developer will not be able to do this. Submit a send-pr as a bug mainly to archive the problem in case someone else has a similar problem in the future, and play musical disks with your other systems to get both disks the same manufacturer. 4) If they both error then it's a problem between the SCSI adapter and the FreeBSD driver. Submit a send-pr as a bug. This is most likely to be looked at by the developer. I tried a build of the kernel again today, to exercise the machine. For quite a while it behaved, but then the SCSI errors popped up again. At least it didn't crash. I have been working on a Compaq Professional workstation from time to time to setup a test workstation over the last week. It has a problem where under heavy use it will corrupt files written and read from the disk. This system was always a Windows box before, using a 1GB Seagate disk drive. (don't ask why Compaq would supply a 1GB disk it is rediculous) Here are some relevant bits of the dmesg that might interest you: . . CPU: Pentium Pro (199.31-MHz 686-class CPU) Origin = GenuineIntel Id = 0x619 Stepping = 9 Features=0xf9ffFPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,SEP,MTRR,PGE ,MCA,CMOV . . ahc0: Adaptec 2940 Ultra SCSI adapter port 0x1000-0x10ff mem 0x4008-0x40080fff irq 11 at device 18.0 on pci0 aic7880: Ultra Single Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 16/253 SCBs . . da0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: QUANTUM FIREBALL SE8.4S PJ09 Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device da0: 20.000MB/s transfers (20.000MHz, offset 15), Tagged Queueing Enabled da0: 8191MB (16777215 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 1044C) Looks familiar. Now I can say one thing with certainty with this machine - Compaq has definitely modded the Adaptec microcode used on the controller here. Why do I know this? I know it because I tried removing the 2940 card from this machine and plugging it into another non-Compaq machine, and the card would not boot the disk in that system. However, a non-Compaq-labeled 2940 card works fine in that system. Compaq has a terrible reputation for screwing around with standard hardware and firmware. I've always felt that they could still build good servers even without all their home-baked junk, but they apparently felt differently. I like commodity hardware and firmware. It's very hard today to justify custom stuff just to gain perhaps a few scant percent of performance under highly specific conditions. I had assumed the problem with this system was bad ram. But, I think I am going to try pulling that Quantum disk out of there and using a different one. You think something on the drive itself is different? I just want to see if perhaps a different manufacturer's hard disk will work OK. I already know they modded the microcode there's a chance they did it wrong. There's also a chance they didn't test with one of the disks I put in there.

I know, it's not particularly intuitive, and the help in the SCSI bios indicates you turn this off for UNIX. If you have an onboard SCSI this parameter is probably set in the BIOS or in EISA-config if you have EISA slots. Just a FYI the translation for DOS setting is used only when the machine is booting, it has no effect on the FreeBSD system once it's up and runing. The only way I can boot right now is from diskette. I enter the loader after waiting 10 minutes for the diskette boot to proceed, then I change the current device, unload the kernel, and boot again, and the machine instantly boots from the hard disk and comes up.

ssh sessions getting paused on idle
Hi Guys, hopefully this is a stoopid question with an easy answer. I ssh to anything over 10 machines at a time and leave the xterms idle. When I come back to a session and press enter / start typing, it takes a few seconds to come alive. Almost as if the connection got canned. Do you think this could be ipfw related?

(and I'll attempt it on my home server, first, even though it is a 5.3 box. At least I can get practice). On the 4.9 server, what should my supfile's tag be? *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4_11 Is that right? And I assume I would then be safe doing: rm -fr /usr/src cvsup stable-supfile [ re: going from 4.x to 5.x] No, this would have some issues that you might be better avoiding right now. I've since gathered that is the case. I can see it is possible, but since the server has two drives, I think I'll wait on this, install 5.3 on the second drive, and deal with that stuff then. The only time I have ever had a problem with a remote upgrade within the 4.x tree was when _I_ made a mistake. You think you're special, eh? :c) I make some JUICY mistakes sometimes, too!! The only difference from the procedure in the handbook for a remote upgrade is that you would not boot into single user mode at any point, obviously, but instead do a normal reboot. Generally, I am the only user logged into the machine. So the only issue is running processes, which I am not all that worried about since right after the install I'm going to reboot.

Re: how to find which port has a given executable
Michael C. Shultz wrote:
Is it possible to find out which port has a particular

out if the script epstopdf was in latex or tex or tetex!
Any easy way to do this ?
Here is an example:
pkg_info -W /usr/X11R6/bin/nedit
/usr/X11R6/bin/nedit was installed by package nedit-5.5
I think the question might have been about a file from port which wasn't
yet installed, in which case it's a little more time consuming:

Re: AMD64 much slower than i386 on FreeBSD 5.4-pre
The answer, Boris, is that the team has no idea what they're doing. Check out some of the threads on performance testing. They tune little pieces here and there, and break 10 other things in the process. Matt Dillon determined that 10,000 ints/second was optimal. Of course if you're passing 10Kpps that means you get an interrupt for every packet. They're playing pin the tail on the donkey. : Am Mittwoch, 23.

Step-by-step instructions for MD_ROOT embedded, please?
I am having problems building an embedded kernel + root filesystem image for FreeBSD-5.3. I had previously succeeded on 4.11. For 4.11 I created a filesystem using vnconfig, disklabel, newfs, etc. and installed it into the kernel using write_mfs_in_kernel. I built a kernel with MD_ROOT and MD_ROOT_SIZE set to 32M. I selected the MD filesystem by setting vfs.root.mountfrom in /boot/loader.conf. Following these same steps in 5.3 (except using mdconfig, and hacking write_mfs_in_kernel (setting SBOFF to 64K)) the kernel failed to find the filesystem. If I let the kernel boot with the disk filesystem I still can't mount md0 - a valid filesystem is not found. I would greatly appreciate a detailed, idiot-proof, step-by-step literal command list starting with nothing and ending with a kernel with a working embedded filesystem. I don't need the filesystem to have contents, just to be there and be found... once the kernel boots with md0 and fails to find /sbin/init, I can take it from there. Looking on the mailing list archives and on the web I get the impression that this is not a common procedure... I haven't been able to find instructions anywhere. I hope someone can help me.

Use xargs, since it will buy you the extra feature of being able to
search through arbitrarily large numbers of files:
for _word in ${BAD_KEYWORDS} ;do
find . | grep -v '^/00' |\
xargs grep ${_word} /dev/null
done
Tips:
- The quotes in ${_word} are probably optional, but it's better to
be safe than sorry :-)
- The /dev/null is there so that grep will get at least 2 file
arguments, even if there is just one file in the current directory,
effectively forcing grep(1) to print the filename of this one file
if it happens to match the pattern.

Panic With MPT driver on Opteron System
Hello I am having a odd problem I hope someone can help with. I have a TYAN 2882 board with 4 gigs of memory and a single Opteron 248 Processor. I am using an Infortrend RAID controller that won't play nice with Adaptec at 320 speeds so I am using an LSI 1030 based PCI-X SCSI card instead of the built in Adaptec. Hence the mpt driver. The system is FreeBSD 5.4-PRERELEASE from March 2nd. The system runs very fast but when testing under somewhat heavy load the system will panic and freeze with: Panic: mpt_get_request: corrupted request free list (ccb) It was also reported that when trying to do a ps auxw it would sometimes (never happened to me) report that it was out of inodes. Which is insane. A screen capture of the frozen console can be seen at: http://pic2.picturetrail.com/VOL965/3391974/6964630/90153559.jpg This seems similiar to reports on both FreeBSD and NetBSD like: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-bugs/2004/03/03/0004.html And http://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-bugs/2004/02/12/0003.html And: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-scsi/2003-April/58.html Any assistance would be appreciatted.

Scripting oddness (sh)
I've been working on a script, and am having a bit of trouble producing reasonable output. First, the script removes all leaf packages that are not listed in a configuration file and are not required by any of those packages, or by any package that those packages require, etc. The problem is that when all currently installed packages are listed as 'do not remove', then the script does not produce the No packages/ports to remove. output unless line 58 (the line that consists of the command 'true') is uncommented. If that line is commented out, or removed, then no output is produced. Anyone have any ideas on how to troubleshoot?

Use xargs, since it will buy you the extra feature of being able to
search through arbitrarily large numbers of files:
for _word in ${BAD_KEYWORDS} ;do
find . | grep -v '^/00' |\
xargs grep ${_word} /dev/null
done
Tips:
- The quotes in ${_word} are probably optional, but it's better to
be safe than sorry :-)
- The /dev/null is there so that grep will get at least 2 file
arguments, even if there is just one file in the current directory,
effectively forcing grep(1) to print the filename of this one file
if it happens to match the pattern.
Cool, I think I get it for the most part. However, what exactly am I
doing when I am piping to xargs? I can see that the filenames not
starting with '00' will be piped, but what does the '\' do? Sorry, I am
really new to scripting and *nix in general. But I am a programmer so I
learn fast.

The '\' means pretend I typed the next line on this line
he used it because most mailers wrap the e-mail lines at 80 characters,
but it needs to be on one line to work. If you wrote it on one line in the
script file, you can omit that '\'

Take a look at the ifconfig(8) man page, as well as the manpage for your NIC driver, which should tell what options to use.
