Hiding dynamic IPs
Hi all I have a program which requires static IP addresses for various reasons. It could be changed to handle dynamic IPs but this would be a fairly significant undertaking and would probably be quite kludgy, involving the generation of scripts that have to be run every time the link goes up and down, etc. Anyway, I want to use it now over a PPP link with dynamic address allocation. I'm trying to figure out a good way to do this. I reckon that it should be possible by using some kind of local tunnel that has a fixed IP on one end that the program can talk to, that will in turn talk to the PPP link. I tried creating an additional tun device and ifconfigging it with the two addresses, but it doesn't seem to work at all (if I ping either address I get no response, nor do I see any Ipkts or Opkts in the netstat -in output). Is there some other way of doing this? Ideally I want to avoid ipfw tricks, as ipfw is being used for other purposes on this host and I would like to keep the problems separate.

Re: NASM programs for freebsd
Well, there are a few catches here. 1) You might have compiled things wrong. Try compiling it this way: nasm -f elf -o test.o test.asm ld -o test test.o You can also link a gcc .o file in here 2) FreeBSD uses protected mode. DOS originally didn't, so it has backwards compatability, but fbsd doesn't. This means you can't use BIOS and DOS interrupts (int xx). A possible solution is to link your program to libc and use printf functions and the like from your asm progs, though I assume this is not what you want. Another possible solution is to use [org 100] in the beginning of your programs, compile them with: nasm -f bin -o test.com test.asm and use a DOS emulator to run the program.

Yes--the Lobby at 1730EST (5:30pm) -- we'll sit around for five minutes to make sure we have everyone who's interested, and then head somewhere.

Since this is the same hotel as the last DC IETF, I seem to recall that the lobby was of a decent size, and probably wouldn't be a bad place to meet--perhaps right by the front doors to one side?

Granularity of disk I/O
It is said that the granularity of disk I/O is a sector. I read a little bit of the source code isa/wd.c, which I think is the driver of IDE disks. I find out that the disk can perform multi-block I/O sometimes. Does this mean the granularity of disk I/O can be multi-sector? If the disk can perform DMA, what is the usual DMA size? Is the granularity the DMA size in this case? If a buffer cache is larger than one sector, it should be split into sectors before I/O. If an I/O on a buffer fails, can we tell which sector within that buffer fails? I am confused with these things and it is probably that my questions are confusing too. Any help or hints are appreciated. -Zhihui To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message

Does this > mean the granularity of disk I/O can be multi-sector? I think you're getting bogged down in terminology. I understand "granularity" to imply the steps in which a quantity can be increased. In this case, a disk transfer is a whole number of sectors between 1 and 256 (though there's an artificial limit which makes it difficult to transfer more than 60 at a time). Using my definition, it would be correct to say that the granularity is 1 sector. > If the disk can perform DMA, what is the usual DMA size? It's normally the size of the transfer, but in the case of IDE drives it can be limited to a maximum value by the the disk flags. > If a buffer cache is larger than one sector, it should be split into > sectors before I/O. No, that would give lousy performance. Buffer cache is also allocated in blocks corresponding to the transfer size. > If an I/O on a buffer fails, can we tell which sector within that > buffer fails? I don't think we do that. The way to recover would be to retry the I/O a sector at a time. That way, you waste time in the exceptional case only.

RE: FreeBSD reboots
because it breaks teh standard and teh networking guru's don't like it. Basically in the face of broken clients, (read PCs) the TCP protocol can gather an unacceptable collection of fin-wait-2 sessions. THis is in the way the protocol was designed. To reduce it we revert to fin-wait-1 and resent the fin. which results in either a FIN or a RST from th eother end if it's still alive. This gets rid of some of the sessions. but it is admittedly a hack.

Note Guy is asking about a pccard, i.e. PCMCIA adapter and everyone is answering with hints about a PCI card.
