Re: syspatch not updating kernel
I am not sure there was any debate on that, whether syspatch check of number of CPU OR what current kernel is running (MP or SP) I made a quick check and at last one cloud service that have OpenBSD uses MP by default - as a result syspatch do not work (on small instances) as it try to patch SP kernel where in-fact MP kernel is in use (that’s one is Swiss Exoscale, but i suspect others have same problem…) _ Zbyszek Żółkiewski > Wiadomość napisana przez Steven Surdock w dniu > 14.12.2017, o godz. 12:36: > > This was, in fact, the reason.

Re: syspatch not updating kernel
This was, in fact, the reason. I had an MP kernel running on a VM with a single CPU. I ended up moving to an SP kernel, but I needed to copy /usr/share/compile/GENERIC for a working i386 SP machine. To make sure everything was updated I also reverted syspatches and then re-applied them.

Re: syspatch not updating kernel
Hi, perhaps this might be a reason, syspatch, around line number 274: (($(sysctl -n hw.ncpufound) > 1)) && _BSDMP=true || _BSDMP=false your kernel looks like MP on i386 ? _ Zbyszek Żółkiewski > Wiadomość napisana przez Steven Surdock w dniu > 13.12.2017, o godz. 14:33: > > I just ran syspatch on a 6.2/i386 host and the kernel did not change as it > has on my other patched machines.

Steve, Anything in the log files? Is /var/db/kernel.SHA256 empty? Do you run sp kernel on the machine capable of multi processing? Check out the misc archive for various "syspatch bug reports". Most if not all of them were trivial omissions on the part of the user (I am a culprit of one such fake report myself). Predrag
syspatch not updating kernel
I just ran syspatch on a 6.2/i386 host and the kernel did not change as it has on my other patched machines. It appears that pub/OpenBSD/syspatch/6.2 was updated on 12/10. root@rad03 [/root]# syspatch -l 002_fktrace 003_mpls root@rad03 [/root]# uname -a OpenBSD cts-rad03.ctstelecom.com 6.2 GENERIC.MP#166 i386 -Steve S.
