close(2) return value handling

Hi. Just curious why you never check the return value of the close(2) system call for errors. Thanks.

ffs details

Hi, I need some details about ffs, I read the kernel source but my c knowledge is very basic. I understood all about the superblock but my problem is understand how the files are allocated on the disk. Anyone could give me more details about files allocation ? Thank you.

"not MAP_STACK" message in dmesg / system message buffer

Hello. While prototyping something in C, I made a mistake with pre-processor macros, which I narrowed down to this: int main() { char *test[10][2097152] = { { 0 } }; } Running it results in $ ./a.out Segmentation fault (core dumped) and it also logs it in dmesg as Feb

Re: Determining which patches a snapshot contains

Fair enough - I can understand you don't want to give any guarantees for snapshots. I guess it's fair to assume that snapshots are only built from full commits and not partial commits? In this case then, I guess I should be fine. -- Jonathan > Am 25.02.2020 um 20:35 schrieb Theo de Raadt : >

Re: What TERM fixes Emacs?

On my X1 Carbon running openbsd 6.6, the console works fine with the non-X version of emacs except that the meta key is not set. One can emulate the meta key by typing escape followed by x, but this is a pain. Maybe there is some mechanism for setting the alt key to meta in emacs on consoles,

For some reason I cannot reproduce the problem all the time as I rebooted my vm and now i properly get a valid error message: fw# pfctl -f /etc/pf.conf pfctl: Current pool size exceeds requested tables limit 2000 And I can just update the limit without the need to remove and re-add the tables.

Stuart, Apologies for breaking netiquette w/ sending images. Could you please point me to what "pccon" is? I found references to pccon in pcvt - but it is unclear to me how I can use pcvt either. Thank you! On 2020-02-24 23:16, Stuart Henderson wrote: > On 2020-02-25, Emilia wrote: >
