Installer: missing GEOM/gpart capabilities slicing disk?
Hello. I try to install a fresh new FreeBSD 8.0-RC2 (from snapshot-DVD) on a barndnew harddrive. As far as I recall partitioning a disk is now done via gpart and the limitation of having only 8 (-2) partitions from a through h except b and c is now obsoleted. When dropping into the installation process, I realised that the 8 partition boundary is still present. Is there a howto (I searched the wiki and lists without success)? I read a lot about how to install FreeBSD on op of a complete ZFS infrastructure, but key issue seems to be a hands-on partitioning of the target haddrive via the fixit procedure. Any help is appreciated.

gnudatalanguage

However, I have math/atlas-devel installed and do not wish to revert to
an
older, slower version of the ATLAS library. Adding a -x atlas-\* onto
the portmaster command to build math/py-numpy fails to prevent portmaster
from trying to build math/atlas.
As was pointed out, that definitely won't work. With the glob patterns
for exclusions, or specifying ports on the command line you want to be
as conservative as possible. Also, it's not necessary to include a *
at the end, portmaster will handle that for you.
Creating a
/var/db/pkg/atlas-3.8.3_1,1/+IGNOREME file in addition doesn't help.
+IGNOREME files are only relevant to installed ports.
How
can I force math/py-numpy to accept the already installed
math/atlas-devel
libraries?
Thanks in advance for any help!
The easiest way for you to accomplish this would have been to use '-x
atlas', the second-easiest would have been to use the -i command line
option. See the man page for more information on that.
Congratulations, you've managed to defeat three sets of safeguards in
portmaster.
Problem #1
math/atlas and math/atlas-devel don't have proper CONFLICTS entries in
their Makefiles (this should be fixed),
Yes, this analysis was essentially correct.
Problem #2:
You're using the -x flag incorrectly. Or portmaster isn't
implementing it properly when the port to be excluded is not actually
installed, take your pick.
The way that -x is implemented currently really depends on the user's
definition of the exclude pattern, and is designed to exclude things
as early as possible so as to avoid what would ultimately become
wasted effort. It's hard to justify modifying the code to guess that
something we've already started working on might match what we think
the user MEANT instead of what they SAID.
Problem #3:
The +IGNOREME checks in portmaster aren't properly implemented for
this case, so they fail to prevent math/atlas from being built.
s/properly implemented for/designed to handle/
If you think about this for a second, the entries in /var/db/pkg are
exclusively related to installed ports, so trying to use an +IGNOREME
file for this purpose doesn't make sense, although I can sympathize
with the OPs sense of desperation here. :)
So what can you do while these problems are being fixed?
Just to be clear, I didn't see anything that needs to be fixed in your
message, and I hope my explanation makes it clear why. If you think
that there are actual bugs that need to be fixed please feel free to
create a thread on -ports to discuss them.
The CONFLICTS for math/atlas* should be fixed, as you remarked. As
for portmaster, I'll allow that your choices were reasonable, but it
would be wise to note in the manpage that:
1) +IGNOREME files only work with installed ports (just because the
package database is naturally associated with installed ports doesn't
mean that someone won't create an +IGNOREME for one that isn't
installed), and
2) when trying to prevent the build or installation of a port that is
not currently installed, the exclusion glob will be compared with the
port directory, rather than the PKGNAME, as is done for installed
packages. Using something like:
#!/bin/sh
for _dir in `make -C /usr/ports -V SUBDIR` ; do
for _dir2 in `make -C /usr/ports/${_dir} -V SUBDIR` ; do
_pkgname=`make -C /usr/ports/${_dir}/${_dir2} -V PKGNAME`
case ${_dir}/${_dir2} in
*${_pkgname%%-[0-9]*}*) ;;
*) echo ${_dir}/${_dir2} ${_pkgname} ;;
esac ;
done ;
done
one can find a number of ports that might surprise a user that was not
aware of this fact. And with regard to the selection of exclusion
globs, we should note that a glob that matches too many ports may be
as problematic as one that matches too few.

MSI RAdeon R4670/512 and xf86-video-ati/xf86-video-radeonhd-devel crashes!
Hello. Please respond also to my eMail address, since I'm not subscriber of these lists! Thanks. Since I utilise a MSI Radeon R4670/512 RV730-based graphics card, I'im incapable of using either x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati or x11-drivers/xf86-video-radeonhd[-devel] The box is a ASUS P5K-Premium based system (Intel P35 chipset, CPU Intel Q6600), running FreeBSD 8.0-RC2/amd64 successfully. The X11 subsystem ist the most recent as one can find in the ports collection. I'll attach the logfile of the currently running Xserver. My box got a new 24 inch TFT display so using VESA driver or lower resolutions than 1920x1200 isn't acceptable. The situation is as follows: In all cases it doesn't matter wheter kernel module 'drm.ko' is loaded or not. Driver 'radeon' (x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati) crashes the box immediately without any messages. I can see the xdm-login requester, but just before this shows up, I realise that the mousepointer sprite gets a kind of 'distorted', it shows up some 'stripes'. They vanish. When log in and the desktop is about to show up (using windowmaker), the screen stays black, the box crahes and in some lucky situations, it reboots, in less lucky situations it remains frozen. Driver 'radeonhd' (xf86-video-radeonhd-1.2.5_2) works, but without 'options EXA' and without 'options DRI'. It is bumpy, but shows a 1920x1200 pixel screen in full colours. Driver 'radeonhd' (xf86-video-radeonhd-1.3.0) doesn't work, it shows the same behaviour as 'radeon' (xf86-video-ati). I can wathc the mouse pointer sprite getting striped and a kind of distorted, then the box crashes. Those crashes occur mostly when switching from xdm-login requester to desktop. In some cases I can switch to the console (pressing ctrl-alt-[F1--F7]), but at some point, this also freezes/crashes the box. I'm a little bit confused, since the ATi-RV730LE chipset is supposed to be supported. I run another box, an older nVidia CK804-based Athlon3500+ box equipted with a MSI R4830/512 graphics card. The same base OS (FreeBSD 8.0-RC2/amd64. The graphics board runs perfectly with ALL(!) radeon-type drivers, options EXA and DRI enabled, kernel module drm.ko loaded. Can someone help? Since I do not have Windows XP/Vista/7 running on the box in question, I can not update the firmware of the MSI R4760 with a potentially existing firmware-update (since those tasks can only be performed via a special software from MSI running on XP/Vista as far as I know).

Sigh. It has *always* been that way for me. By age 15 I was already stumbling over compiler bugs, library bugs, operating system bugs, and even the occasional, very peculiar sort of hardware bug.

mfi(4) lockups and the adapter event log
Hello, We saw an odd crash (more of a lockup) on one of our Dell's with a PERC5/i RAID controller (running 6.3-RELEASE-p10): mfi0: COMMAND 0x89dab0e8 TIMEOUT AFTER 31 SECONDS (repeated many times with different commands) mfi0: 3325 (310696326s/0x0020/4) - Type 18: Fatal firmware error: Line 1091 in ../../raid/verdeMain.c After some troubleshooting with Dell, they determined that there was no problem. An OpenManage live CD was used to run their diagnostic utilities, which turned up nothing. However, after rebooting the system and checking dmesg(8), it could be seen that the adapter was doing some weird things during initialization. It seemed to be going through the whole initialization cycle (Firmware initialization started) up to five times. This does not jive with our other mfi/PERC5 systems. In addition to the multiple init cycles it was also printing weeks worth of messages from the adapter's event log (mostly battery relearns). Checking the event log with linux-megacli showed TONS of messages. Trying to clear them using linux-megacli seemed to cause a similar lockup, filled with command timeouts, but no fatal firmware error. We ended up clearing the event log using a linux live CD and the linux native MegaCLI binaries. The system hasn't locked up again since, but we're not sure what caused it in the first place. Has anyone else seen any kind of oddities with the PERC series of controllers and the adapter's event log? Does it just fill up after a while and start to cause trouble? I seem to remember a similar post recommending a cleaning of the event logs every so often.

Since I utilise a MSI Radeon R4670/512 RV730-based graphics card, I'im incapable of using either Support for this chip is still developing. Accellerated 3D is not available yet, and EXA might not be complete yet. In all cases it doesn't matter wheter kernel module 'drm.ko' is loaded or not. You also need radeon.ko and agp.ko for accelleration. As far as I can tell, agp.ko is used for memory management for the card/driver and is necessary even if your card is PCI-E. Driver 'radeonhd' (xf86-video-radeonhd-1.2.5_2) works, but without 'options EXA' and without 'options DRI'. It is bumpy, but shows a 1920x1200 pixel screen in full colours. DRI for R7xx isn't there yet. If you want to test a more recent radeonhd driver than the one in ports, you might have to use the drm and radeon modules from the Xorg git repository as well. I'm a little bit confused, since the ATi-RV730LE chipset is supposed to be supported. I run another box, an older nVidia CK804-based Athlon3500+ box equipted with a MSI R4830/512 graphics card. That is an RV770, not a RV730. The Xorg developers are working on the drivers for the R7xx series. Full documentation wasn't available until a couple of months ago IIRC, so some patience is required.

I've updated my working copy of the man page with these suggestions, thanks! And with regard to the selection of exclusion globs, we should note that a glob that matches too many ports may be as problematic as one that matches too few.

Converting a bootable USB stick in to bootable CD-ROM
I have a FreeBSD image that I install on USB sticks to build new systems. When the stick boots it automatically clones itself on the system's hard drive, creating partitions and other configuration parameters that are programmed into the stick's cloning logic. I want to create a similar mechanism using a bootable CD-ROM. The biggest difference in the process of course is that the CD-ROM itself is read-only so clearly there needs to be an mfsroot involved in the process. I looked at how the FreeBSD Live CD is setup and the loader.conf file has these lines: mfsroot_load=YES mfsroot_type=mfs_root mfsroot_name=/boot/mfsroot along with the file /boot/mfsroot.gz and no /etc/fstab. I copied this into my BSD image and duplicated the mfsroot settings in my loader.conf. I use the command below to create the iso file from the BSD image I've prepared. mkisofs -R -no-emul-boot -o /tmp/bsd.iso -b boot/cdboot /bsd When this iso is copied to a CD, it does boot. However, it doesn't seem to be picking up the mfsroot config and complains that the system is running from on a read-only file system.

Trivial questions about CNTL-ALT-DEL and CNTL-ALT-BACKSPACE
I've just been installing 7.2-RELEASE/amd64 on a fresh/wiped system that I plan to use as my future main workstation. Anyway, I've already noticed a couple of things that seem to be different from prior release that I need to ask about, i.e.: 1) It appears that CNTL-ALT-DEL now causes a shutdown/reboot. (I don't know what release this new feature started in... I only just noticed it now.) Anyway, I'd like to know how I can disable this particular bit of functionality. How do I do that? 2) Prior versions of X (Xorg?) allowed CNTL-ALT-BACKSPACE to cause an immediate shutdown of the X server, but now, that doesn't see to work anymore.

Any idea where is the true? Are my servers with php4-gd are secure or not? This is a bug in the underlying gd library rather than in PHP itself. There are fixes to two related ports: if you've updated graphics/gd to the latest version (gd-2.0.35_2,1), and built the latest port revision of the php5-gd module (which is php5-gd-5.2.11_2) then those should have been secured. However, the PHP4 version of the gd module is still at version php4-gd-4.4.9, and doesn't seem to have been patched -- there is no patch for CVE-2009-3546 in the php4 sources -- so it seems you are still vulnerable when using PHP4. This is to be expected: the PHP project is deprecating PHP4 and putting all their effort in to developing PHP5 instead. Patches may be forthcoming eventually, but who knows when? Basically, if you're running PHP4 on a public site then you should be making plans to upgrade to PHP5 ASAP.

Re: math/py-numpy vs. math/atlas-devel
Hi all,
I'm willing to apply patches to atlas ports if available.
I talked with Goto Kazushige (author of GotoBLAS), he told me
that L2 cache handling on FreeBSD is very bad. It may be a reason
why ATLAS build is so fragile. On Linux machines, it takes only 20 min or so.
Thanks for good discussions!
Best,

Re: php4-gd

Portaudit says Affected package: php4-gd-4.4.9 Type of problem: gd -- '_gdGetColors' remote buffer overflow vulnerability. Reference: http://portaudit.FreeBSD.org/4e8344a3-ca52-11de-8ee8-00215c6a37bb.html On this site is info about: 5.2.11 and 5.3.0 On Securityfocus is info also about 4.4.9 but on cve.mitre.org is not. Any idea where is the true? Are my servers with php4-gd are secure or not? This is a bug in the underlying gd library rather than in PHP itself. There are fixes to two related ports: if you've updated graphics/gd to the latest version (gd-2.0.35_2,1), and built the latest port revision of the php5-gd module (which is php5-gd-5.2.11_2) then those should have been secured. However, the PHP4 version of the gd module is still at version php4-gd-4.4.9, and doesn't seem to have been patched -- there is no patch for CVE-2009-3546 in the php4 sources -- so it seems you are still vulnerable when using PHP4. This is to be expected: the PHP project is deprecating PHP4 and putting all their effort in to developing PHP5 instead. Patches may be forthcoming eventually, but who knows when? Basically, if you're running PHP4 on a public site then you should be making plans to upgrade to PHP5 ASAP. Cheers, Matthew Hi, So I need to upgrade php4 to php5. Thank you for information.

math/atlas-devel build times (was Re: math/py-numpy vs. math/atlas-devel)
On Tue, 10 Nov 2009 15:41:05 +0900 (JST) Maho NAKATA cha...@mac.com wrote: I'm willing to apply patches to atlas ports if available. Thanks, Maho. It appears that the most critical change is to make sure the tools can know that math/atlas and math/atlas-devel conflict with each other, so that if one is already installed, the tools won't try to install the other. I talked with Goto Kazushige (author of GotoBLAS), he told me that L2 cache handling on FreeBSD is very bad. It may be a reason I would be very interested in knowing in detail why he thinks that. The ATLAS build procedure, however, does use a very crude algorithm for detecting the sizes of L1 and L2 caches that detects cache sizes much smaller than they actually are. I think there are some ways of correcting the detected sizes, but they involve editing source files and making decisions that go way beyond anything that the FreeBSD ports system is equipped to handle. Assuming cache sizes that are typically 1/2 or 1/4 of the actual sizes will quite naturally give less than optimal results. It is worth noting, though, that this same algorithm for cache size detection is used for building ATLAS on any operating system on i386 or amd64 architectures. why ATLAS build is so fragile. On Linux machines, it takes only 20 min or so. As I wrote before, the sensitivity is based upon the variance of a run times. The sample size is quite small, so any sizable differences in even one or two run times can put the variance over the build procedure's tolerance threshhold. On my machine, I always had to edit a source file to increase the number of iterations of each test from 10 to either 100 or 1000 in order to get the sensitivity down to where occasional other activity in the system wouldn't kill the ATLAS build. However, math/atlas-devel in FreeBSD 7.2 surprised me by building cleanly with no such intervention required, which pleased me greatly, of course. I don't know what the authors changed to make this happen. In any case, the variance sensitivity problem ought to be the same, regardless of operating system. The ATLAS build procedure builds an unthreaded version of the library on any system. If more than one logical/physical CPU is detected, it also builds a threaded version. You didn't mention the system configuration that can allegedly build ATLAS in only 20 minutes. I'm building it on a Dell Inspiron XPS, which has a 3.4 GHz P4 Prescott CPU. The L1 caches are 64 KB each, IIRC, and the L2 cache is 1 MB, but ATLAS's build procedure typically decides that the L1 size is 16 KB or less and the L2 size is 256 KB. I have hyperthreading enabled, so the build procedure sees two (logical) CPUs, but the gains from the hyperthreading are very small in this situation. Building ATLAS on a truly dual-cored system ought to give much shorter build times, and building it on a Core i7 system ought to be tremendously faster with or without enabling the i7's reputedly better implemented HT. The P4 Prescott is now a very old chip model. (I bought this machine new five years ago.) The last time I checked, the LINUX kernel still didn't know the difference between logical CPUs and physical CPUs, so it's difficult to see how its cache management in a HT environment could be any better than FreeBSD's. Maybe LINUX has been updated to understand five-year-old technology since I last checked, but that still should only make it closer to FreeBSD's performance, not radically faster than FreeBSD.
