Google Code-In 2011 is over; 56 tasks got completed for FreeBSD!
Hello, (This is cross-posted message between current@, stable@ and hackers@; for eventual discussion, please use hackers@ mailing list.) I am glad to announce that we've successfully reached the end of Google Code-In 2011 Contest! FreeBSD participated first time, and in my personal opinion GCIN has proven to be a big success. I want to thank all the participants for their time, cooperation and dedication. Here's the list of this years participants: Alex Rucker, Andrey Sinitsyn, Anikan, Astha Sethi, Bebacz, Bharath Mohan, doctorkohaku, Eric Newberry, GarrettF, Isabell Long (issyl0), mpaloski, Violet Lin (n00l3), Nagato Yuki, Nathan, passstab, Reid Anderson, Robin, Roger, Rushil Paul, Thomas Turney, Utkarsh Pant, Zacharias Mitzelos I would like to point out Isabell Long (issyl0) completed 13 tasks for us and holds this years record. Some other numbers... We've had 19 mentors. I send special thanks to those who offered their help in mentoring/administration, since accepting/reviewing/judging tasks has proven to be challenging. We've had 78 tasks published. 56 tasks got completed, leading to ~72% successful completions. 1 task was claimed at the time of hitting the deadline, 10 tasks were claimed, but never finished, thus got reopened. 12 of tasks were never claimed. List of tasks, together with their outcome (uploaded results) are present here: http://www.google-melange.com/gci/org/google/gci2011/freebsd It would be my wish to have the work done in GCIN commited to FreeBSD with: Submitted by: Name email (Google Code-In 2011) header or similar, clearly stating work comes from GCIN 2011. The hardest expectations for mentors was short response time. For students I think it was meeting FreeBSD's standards, however I'm positively surprised by the quality of submitted work. The complaint which I've heard is: Not enough coding tasks. We should fix it next time, since most of the tasks were related with documentation and outreach/promotion. I think GCIN should become an integral part of the FreeBSD involvement in promotion of the Open Source software. Thank you. -- Wojciech A.

Here is the link: http://www.26th.net/public/projects/freebsd/geom_nbsd/geom_nbsd.tgz This module is analgous to the default component (geom_bsd I believe it is called) that understands FreeBSD disklabels, but instead it understands NetBSD, OpenBSD and DragonFlyBSD disklabels. Once compiled and kldload'ed into the kernel, that module will allow you to mount your partitions from the OpenBSD disk. However, note that when I used it, there was some bug that did not allow you to get rid of the module (cannot rememeber whether it panicked, hung or just refused to unload), and so I simply rebooted once I had pulled the data off the drive I needed to. Incidentally, it seems a great shame that FreeBSD does not deliver this support in the base system, it would seem like a VERY useful thing to be able to do for users and developers who use a couple of the different BSD systems. Thanks and hope this helps, Alex J Burke. Alex You have a very valid point here. FreeBSD's support for other FS' is horiffic. Very little else is supported which I find very sad. There is not even support for Solaris UFS. Something that would be really nice would be support for XFS. Actually, I've worked on Solaris labels support in the past. It meant decoding their structures which is done: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-bugs/2005-February/011797.html Then, I hacked geom_sunlabel in order to accept minor changes between way of handling SPARC/x86 differences (number of labels). Result of this experiment was a set of readable slices and labels. I don't remember exact differences between Solaris/FreeBSD UFS, but I remember I was able to mess Solaris UFS with fsck(8) from FreeBSD, and after correcting file system [1], I was able to read files from Solaris label. [1] Solaris fsck(8) wasn't able to handle such serious brokeness, even after specifying alternative, backup superblock. -- Wojciech A.

Whenever I try to kldload crypto.ko the operation fails and I get the following error in my dmesg: link_elf: symbol inflateInit2_ undefined I was indirectly trying to load crypto because I had geom_eli.ko in my loader.conf. I don't have any crypto hardware in the box. I'm guessing this is related to this commit: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/cvs-src/2006-March/060511.html It appears that the MODULE_DEPEND macro was added to cryptodev.c, but not to crypto.c. I tried adding MODULE_DEPEND to crypto.c and the problem went away. I'm not that familiar with the module system, so perhaps there is something else wrong with my configuration and this is the wrong fix. In any case, here is the patch: --- crypto.c.orig Fri Mar 3 20:21:35 2006 +++ crypto.cFri Mar 3 20:21:04 2006 @@ -252,6 +252,7 @@ }}; MODULE_VERSION(crypto, 1); DECLARE_MODULE(crypto, crypto_mod, SI_SUB_DRIVERS, SI_ORDER_FIRST); +MODULE_DEPEND(crypto, zlib, 1, 1, 1); /* * Create a new session.
