Hi everyone, just wanted to reply back with a fix I discovered for the
graphical errors. I had TearFree enabled in my xorg.conf, and deleting
that line fixed it for me.

Try to raise your aperture driver level to give your gpu more privileges:

# sysctl machdep.allowaperture=2

You can read more about the other levels on man pages (type "man xf86").

Re: Upgrade to 5.9 full disk encryption

[Niels]

As Bryan stated, bioctl will prompt for the (existing) passphrase and then
bring up the (existing) crypto volume.

Once mounted, it will be a standard upgrade installation.
To clarify, bioctl should in this case NOT overwrite the existing encrypted
data.

As a beginner, I found bioctl’s -c and -d options (and its terminology of
“create”
and “delete”) a bit confusing and, yes, “a little scary” in this
regard.

FAQ 14.10.3 might be helpful to understand, as it puts it rather explicitly:

> note that the initial creation of the container and attaching the container
are done with the same bioctl(8) command

> The man page for this looks a little scary, as the -d command is described
as "deleting" the volume. In the case of crypto, however, it just deactivates
encrypted volume so it can't be accessed until it is activated again with the
passphrase.

Re: Help with IPsec multiple transform policy

[Sly Midnight]

I got it to work exactly as you suggested using isakmpd.conf.

It took me quite a bit of searching to find the correct sort of syntax
for that file to achieve what I wanted but it now allows me to connect.

But I've run into another issue that I cannot resolve myself.

Once I connect from ANY client, I can only move data on the VPN for a
few seconds then it goes dead.

I thought it might be an MTU issue, but I tried setting the MRU setting
fairly low in npppd and that didn't solve it.

I tried setting skip on enc0 as well as pppx0 in pf rules and that
didn't work either.
What else could I be missing? Why would it work, but only briefly?

The original question is not clear.

Your instruction will involve an overwrite of a previous install and is, 
therefore, not a "upgrade".

Re: Upgrade to 5.9 full disk encryption

[Bryan Everly]

Boot the installer. Exit to the shell. Then do:

bioctl -c C -l /dev/sd0a softraid0

(Substitute for your actual device that is the softraid container).
You will be promoted for your password.

Watch for the console message telling you what it mounted as. Then
type exit to return to the installer and upgrade that disk.

Not sure lpd could be configured to be spooler for non printing jobs like
it is on AIX but you can try.

There's OpenLava but there's no OpenBSD port for that

Standard way to create a generic queue in ksh

[Jon S]

Hello all!

As a port of a backup solution, i needa a queue. Having looked around the
net, i haven found any standard way (besides named pipes) that I can use.

Requirements are:
* There will be few elements in the queue (<20)
* No critical section  is needed (this is already adressed using mkdir)
* The queue must be possible to examine without altering it
* It would be nice if the queue only can contain unique elements (no point
in queing the same job twice)

My own two ideas are:
* Files in a dir. Gives uniqueness if names are well selected, but I dont
know how to handle element order neatly
* Rows in a file: No guarantee for unique jobs. Easy to define order and to
add a new job at end (or beginning) of a file or pop a job

Any ideas or proposal of standard way to do this?

Re: Quick APU2 review

APU2 is quite a different product than APU1.
Different processor(s), different network interfaces (using different
drivers).

Recent FAQ cleanup lost a reference to mg(1) (section 2.2).

Text editors seem fundamental enough to include in help.1.

While here, make consistent use of references to command arguments (Ar).

Can you trigger the bug? I can probably find time to build with symbols

KISSIS - Keep It Simple So It's Securable

Re: Quick APU2 review

[Daniel Ouellet]

I don't have the APU2C4, I have the APU1C4

and I can push 80Mb/sec of IPSec on it, way more obviously when I don't
do the IPSec.

My setup use ikedv2 from Rek@

When I reach the 80Mb/sec, well it reach the full CPU utilization.

When I do NAT only the CPU cores ( I have only 2 on that APU1) are use
only at 45% each for 150Mb/sec real traffic.

I wish I could test faster, but my line for now is 150Mb upgrading to
300Mb/sec soon.

If I do not do nat but use only fix IP's. it's even lower.

And my PF rules have 37 active lines. Well my config is bigger
obviously, but see the rules output for exact feedback.

It run routing, pf, IKEDv2, NAT, unbound, dhcpd, ntpd, smtpd just for
the local feedback, NOT for all my emails. I have a different server for
that.

# pfctl -sr | wc -l
  37

I am upgrading it for the APU2c4 because if the AES-NI instruction set
on the CPU to improve my traffic under IKED, NOT because it is not
capable. I just want more traffic under encryption and the new CPU will
improve that.

But this one already can saturate the line I have already without IKED
traffic, so I can't imagine that it woudln't do what you want assuming
you are not running a fortune 500 company obviously.

here is without IKED:

http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/5253974103

And if I push it via tcpbench OVER IKED, instead of normal traffic (
from a server behind that APU1c4 that is not that box obviously and that
need routing and all), it gets a bit lower, but here is the output
anyway on average with the rest of the traffic running now. I stream
Spottily and have a video running and about 9 ssh connection at the
moment doing my work, and a few more stuff as well as my kid playing
games League of Legends, etc.

Conn:   1 Mbps:   55.166 Peak Mbps:   58.288 Avg Mbps:   55.166

As you can see, plenty of capacity and the APU2C4 I am sure beat this
hands down!

It has 4 cores oppose to two and the encryption set on the CPU.

Hope this help you.

Daniel

My guess is that Firefox is running out of memory. I had similar
problems and this change to /etc/login.conf made firefox reliable:

Hi

Can you give some real world through put? How much can you push through it
from a NAT’et device? And what is the device stats when doing so?

Subject: Quick APU2 review

I bought a PC Engines APU2 this week and thought I'd write up my
impressions.

TL;DR: Recommended.

The obvious point of reference is the Soekris net6501.  Now, that
comparison isn't really fair since the net6501 is several years old
and the APU2 is a new design.  Then again, Soekris canceled their
successor model (after stringing along potential customers for a
year), so they're without a competitive product now.  Tough for them.

http://pcengines.ch/apu2c4.htm
https://soekris.com/products/net6501-1.html

Here's what the APU2 lacks: It has only three Ethernet ports instead
of four, no front-side Ethernet LEDs, no PCI-Express expansion slot,
no LOM.  On the plus side, it has two USB 3.0 ports instead of a
single USB 2.0 one.

Performance: Single-core speed of the APU2 seems to be comparable
to the net6501-70 (the fast model), but the APU2 has four cores
instead of two and it has AES-NI, which provides a big boost for
many crypto applications.  A "make -j4 build" took exactly 120
minutes.

Heat: The APUs have an innovative design where the CPU heat sink
is coupled to the case.  Since this is typically assembled by the
customer, a lot of attention is drawn to it and people obsess over
the CPU temperature.  It's a nonissue.  Case temperature is about
the same as for the net6501, where people are far less concerned,
even a "make -j4 build" didn't raise the CPU temperature much (57C
to 64.5C), and the design ensures good heat flow.  Ask me again in
six months how it did in a 33C summer environment, but I expect no
problems whatsoever.

The firmware is still being worked on; it's cobbled together from
coreboot, a MemTest86 module (takes about 1h45 for one pass on the
apu2c4), and iPXE.  It works.  I've booted via PXE, from an external
USB key, and from mSATA.

Miscellaneous: The case is really compact.  The order of the Ethernet
ports is reversed when compared to the Soekris and not marked on
the case.

And yes, the APU2 is fully supported by OpenBSD 5.9.

Overall, I like it a lot.  Compared to the net6501, the APU2 is
much cheaper and more powerful.  Compared to Intel Rangeley devices,
it is readily available in small quantities (like, one) and, to
pick the one that you can easily buy, again much cheaper than the
RCC-VE 2440.

My APU2 is serving as my home gateway now, replacing a net6501.
It feels good to be running an AMD CPU again. :-)


PS: I bought mine from NRG Systems GmbH, Augsburg, Germany, who
sell convenient board/case/PSU/SSD kits.  Board and case were
already assembled.

there is a (probably quite dumb) bug somewhere, but i have had trouble finding

Firefox Crashes; slow xfce

[Daniel Boyd]

I have noticed a pattern lately.  When I open LibreOffice or Evince,
Firefox crashes -- like pretty regularly.  I switched from using Calc to
Gnumeric and that has helped some, but having my browser crash 10-15 times
a day is not good for productivity.

I've been using OpenBSD (first 5.8 and now 5.9) on my primary work machine
for a couple months now.  I am largely very happy with things, but I'm
hopeful I can figure out a solution to this.

In addition, the LibreOffice 5 build in 5.9 crashed so much on me last week
as to not be usable.  I don't use LibreOffice super often, but I don't
recall having any issues like that with the 4.x build that ran on 5.8.

And, lastly dragging windows in xfce is *slow*.  This isn't a new computer,
but it's got a Radeon HD 7770.  I am running dual 2560x1440 monitors which
is a lot of pixels, but I think that card should be capable of handling
it.

I'm not sure what all log/configuration files etc to post, so I'll just do
dmesg, Xorg.0.log, and login.conf

Quick APU2 review

[Christian Weisgerber]

I bought a PC Engines APU2 this week and thought I'd write up my
impressions.

TL;DR: Recommended.

The obvious point of reference is the Soekris net6501.  Now, that
comparison isn't really fair since the net6501 is several years old
and the APU2 is a new design.  Then again, Soekris canceled their
successor model (after stringing along potential customers for a
year), so they're without a competitive product now.  Tough for them.

http://pcengines.ch/apu2c4.htm
https://soekris.com/products/net6501-1.html

Here's what the APU2 lacks: It has only three Ethernet ports instead
of four, no front-side Ethernet LEDs, no PCI-Express expansion slot,
no LOM.  On the plus side, it has two USB 3.0 ports instead of a
single USB 2.0 one.

Performance: Single-core speed of the APU2 seems to be comparable
to the net6501-70 (the fast model), but the APU2 has four cores
instead of two and it has AES-NI, which provides a big boost for
many crypto applications.  A "make -j4 build" took exactly 120
minutes.

Heat: The APUs have an innovative design where the CPU heat sink
is coupled to the case.  Since this is typically assembled by the
customer, a lot of attention is drawn to it and people obsess over
the CPU temperature.  It's a nonissue.  Case temperature is about
the same as for the net6501, where people are far less concerned,
even a "make -j4 build" didn't raise the CPU temperature much (57C
to 64.5C), and the design ensures good heat flow.  Ask me again in
six months how it did in a 33C summer environment, but I expect no
problems whatsoever.

The firmware is still being worked on; it's cobbled together from
coreboot, a MemTest86 module (takes about 1h45 for one pass on the
apu2c4), and iPXE.  It works.  I've booted via PXE, from an external
USB key, and from mSATA.

Miscellaneous: The case is really compact.  The order of the Ethernet
ports is reversed when compared to the Soekris and not marked on
the case.

And yes, the APU2 is fully supported by OpenBSD 5.9.

Overall, I like it a lot.  Compared to the net6501, the APU2 is
much cheaper and more powerful.  Compared to Intel Rangeley devices,
it is readily available in small quantities (like, one) and, to
pick the one that you can easily buy, again much cheaper than the
RCC-VE 2440.

My APU2 is serving as my home gateway now, replacing a net6501.
It feels good to be running an AMD CPU again. :-)


PS: I bought mine from NRG Systems GmbH, Augsburg, Germany, who

Just design correct to be susceptible to automation is enough.

Re: NFS daemon is very slow in server-to-client direction in TCP mode

[Максим]

Thanks, Brian!You are right. The default value of 65536 for wsize and
rsize seems bad for debian client. Lower values gave me very good results
(it seems the lower the value the better the responsiveness).I finally
stopped at value 4096. Seems working.š--Best regardsRodin Maximššš14.04.2016,
15:25, "Brian Conway" :

  I ran into that same behavior with a Debian client before lowering
  the readsize and writesize in the NFS mount options (they defaulted
  to 64K I believe). Try starting at 8096 and working your way up until
  you find the failure point.

  I was using nfs service on OpenBSD (amd64) since version 5.6.

  The whole setup process repeats the steps in official FAQ on the
  OpenBSD's homepage.
  The problem was and remains (now in version 5.9 amd64):
  in TCP mode the upload speed is about 20-30MB/s
  which is quite acceptable for my needs, but the download speed is
  about 32Kb/s.

  As a workaround I had set up the debain client to connect to my
  NFS-server in UDP mode.
  In that mode the speed was good in both directions.

  In recent versions of debian OS the UDP option for NFS-client
  disappeared.
  The question is: is it possible to fix TCP mode in NFS server or is
  it still the problem of the NFS client?

Carp interface sitting on vlan can not be pinged

[Kim Zeitler]

Hello

maybe a stupid question, but is it possible to run a carp(4) interface 
on vlan(4) interfaces?


In the following setup we have the problem that both boxes can be pinged 
on their address associated with their respective vlan(4) interface, but 
not on the carp(4) interface IP. Both boxes are recent installs and are 
running -current


em2 (no ip) ---> vlan100 (192.168.150.200) ---> carp2 (192.168.150.1)
\
 --> vlan101 (192.168.151.200) ---> carp3 (192.168.151.1)

respectively the corresponding node using .202 instead of .200 for the 
vlan(4) interfaces

I took this patch from Arch Linux's freetype package[0], but I didn't
feel the need to include all of them.

If Arch can include it by default, OpenBSD probably can too?

I for sure could not migrate to OpenBSD full time without enabling the
feature, but I don't mind patching it manually. :)

Note though, that enabling the feature does some weird things to font
rendering in urxvt, where things show graphical glitches without the
"URxvt.letterSpace: -1" X resource. I don't know how other terminal
emulators handle it.

No, at least not without losing the sender's source IP address. (you can
do that with http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/rdr.html#rdrnat but it's a
terrible idea in this case).

I suspect you don't have IP forwarding enabled; with this rule you should
see a packet though it won't successfully connect.

The real fix:

Either move spamd to the firewall, or run an MTA on the spamd machine
(e.g. smtpd, sendmail, postfix) and relay mail to Exchange at the
SMTP level.

The snapshot you are using was just before the xf86-video-ati 7.6.1
update, can you try a newer snapshot or build xenocara to get 7.6.1?
7.7.0 was recently released upstream but that isn't in tree yet.
