As shown below, -vv is ridiculously verbose. I think -v is also too verbose. If you are going to do a progress bar, I think it should be one progress bar. I am sure there is a machine out there where -vv will do more than 24 lines of output. If not today, eventually. So I don't think we want -vv or -v in in sysupgrade or the installer, unless the output is changed to be less verbose. The IMPORTANT information from sysupgrade or the installer... is not this wall of text. > It's a fair bit quieter (it > doesn't include the time estimates from ftp, but does still prints > what it's doing before it starts downloading anything potentially > large, so at least you aren't sat there downloading 12Mb of intel- > or iwx-firmware or 25Mb of amdgpu-firmware with zero idea about > what it's doing). > > # fw_update -vv > Detect firmware ... found. > Get/Verify SHA256.sig 100% |**************************| 2371 00:00 > > Get/Verify intel-firmware-2023080... 100% |*************| 12155 KB 00:07 > > Install intel-firmware-2023080... 100% |****************| 12155 KB 00:00 > > Get/Verify iwx-firmware-20230330.tgz 100% |*************| 12890 KB 00:48 > > Install iwx-firmware-20230330.tgz 100% |****************| 12890 KB 00:00 > > Get/Verify vmm-firmware-1.14.0p4.tgz 100% |*************| 42927 00:00 > > Install vmm-firmware-1.14.0p4.tgz 100% |****************| 42927 00:00 > > fw_update: added intel,iwx,vmm; updated none; kept inteldrm,uvideo > > vs. > > # fw_update -v > Get/Verify intel-firmware-20230808v0.tgz ... installed. > Get/Verify iwx-firmware-20230330.tgz ... installed. > Get/Verify vmm-firmware-1.14.0p4.tgz ... installed. > fw_update: added intel,iwx,vmm; updated none; kept inteldrm,uvideo > > > $ time doas fw_update > > fw_update: added intel; updated none; kept inteldrm,iwm,uvideo,vmm > > 0m58.45s real 0m00.51s user 0m00.35s system > > firmware.openbsd.org is handled entirely by DNS round-robin with no > geographical awareness, so even with good local network and internet > connection, it can sometimes still take a very long time.
