Have you tried running truss -f on the python process? It sounds like something in there might be hanging (and so the master process is stuck waiting and thus never invokes the callback). Truss might help narrow things down. On March 17, 2017 at 8:17:36 PM, David Preece (da...@polymath.tech)

Triton consists of a number of services and agents.  Typically the services run on the head node and agents run on the compute nodes (this is simplifying things a bit) and they communicate over an administrative VLAN.  Typically this communication is between the headnode and the compute notes

I don’t know if this helps or not, but a better way to think of it is that for every page of memory, the OS wants to make sure there’s somewhere it can go on disk.  For application code, this is easy — it can just re-read the code from the binary (assuming it hasn’t changed) if necessary.  For

For the SoftEther code changes, I’d suggest looking into libdlpi(3DLPI). It’ll take care of most of the DLPI details for you (including handling both style 1 and style 2 devices — it sounds like it can’t handle style 1 devices — e.g. /dev/net0), it’s also something that’s been around since Solaris

How were you disabling the other cores?  If not doing so from the BIOS, probably the easiest way on SmartOS to do it is to boot w/ kmdb (-kd in the boot args) and when KMDB loads, type ‘use_mp/W 0’ then ‘:c’ to continue.  If might also be useful to include the -v flag as well to see how far

Was that with boot -v?  Are you able to send the system an NMI after it hangs (or get the boot -v output up to the hang)? Prior to OS-7079, the system would start to startup the next CPU before it had completely finished initializing the ‘current’ CPU (which could deadlock depending on which

That Solaris works w/ a single CPU makes me wonder if it might be OS-7079 (still under review/testing so the fix hasn’t been integrated yet). The bug was introduced in 2009 (so it’s very possible Solaris still has this bug), but seems to have been hard enough to hit that it hasn’t been

If you can, instead of disabling the cores in the BIOS, try to boot -kvd (kmdb w/ debug), and at the kmdb prompt, type “use_mp/W 0” to set use_mp to 0, then “:c” to continue the boot process. From: Robert Fisher Reply: smartos-discuss@lists.smartos.org Date: July 21, 2018 at 5:03:32 PM To:
