 That's a known bug, affecting -CURRENT as well.
 The cpustop IPI is handled though an NMI, which means it could
 interrupt a CPU in any moment, even while holding a spinlock,
 violating one well known FreeBSD rule.
 That means that the cpu can stop itself while the thread was holding
 the sched lock spinlock and not releasing it (there is no way, modulo
 highly hackish, to fix that).
 In the while hardclock() wants to schedule something else to run and
 got stuck on the thread lock.

 Ideal fix would involve not using a NMI for serving the cpustop while
 having a cheap way (not making the common path too hard) to tell
 hardclock() to avoid scheduling while cpustop is in flight.

 Thanks,
 Attilio

I have now tried repeating the problem by running "stress --cpu 8 --io
8 --vm 4 --vm-bytes 1024M --timeout 600s --verbose" which pushed
system load into the 15.50 ballpark and simultaneously running
"portsnap fetch" and "portsnap update" but I couldn't manually trigger
the panic, it seems that this problem is indeed random (although it
baffles me why is it specifically portsnap triggering it). I have now
disabled powerd to check whether that makes any difference to system
stability.

The only other things running on the system are: sshd, ntpd, smartd,
smbd/nmdb and a few instances of irssi in screens.

May CARP be a loadable module, or does it need to 'stay' inside base kernel?

Zfs on usb-disk checksum errors?

Re: glabel metadata protection (WAS: ZFS: drive replacement performance)

Is ZFS happy if the size of it's disc changes underneath it ? I have
expanded a zpool a couple of times simply by changing the size of
the partition and rebooting the machine - it comes up with the new
amount of free space fine. Never tried it the other way though. The
reason I mention it is that someone suggested glabeling a drive in
an existing pool and using replace to swap it over. Which should be good
I guess unless the last sector was in use. ZFS spreads stuff all over the
disc as I unserdtand it though, so that might not be a good assumption,
even on a fairly empty filesystem.

sshd GSSAPIAuthentication broken after 8.0-BETA1 upgrade

2009-07-08 Thread John Marshall
I source upgraded a (test) server here (i386) from 7.2-RELEASE-p2 to
8.0-BETA1 this morning.  I use GSSAPI as the primary authentication
method for sshd on that server.  After the upgrade GSSAPI authentication
stopped working and I can't get enough information to figure out why.
Perhaps the newer version of Heimdal behaves differently?  Perhaps the
newer version of sshd behaves differently?

If I run sshd with debug "-ddd" I see the following:

debug1: attempt 1 failures 0
debug2: input_userauth_request: try method gssapi-with-mic
debug3: mm_request_send entering: type 37
debug3: mm_request_receive_expect entering: type 38
debug3: mm_request_receive entering
debug3: monitor_read: checking request 37
debug3: mm_request_send entering: type 38
debug3: mm_request_receive entering
Postponed gssapi-with-mic for john from 192.0.2.123 port 57225 ssh2
debug3: mm_request_send entering: type 39
debug3: mm_request_receive_expect entering: type 40
debug3: mm_request_receive entering
debug3: monitor_read: checking request 39
debug1: Received some client credentials

debug3: mm_request_receive entering
debug3: monitor_read: checking request 43
debug3: mm_request_send entering: type 44
debug3: mm_request_receive entering
GSSAPI MIC check failed

On the client side (with ssh -vvv) I see:

debug3: preferred gssapi-with-mic,publickey,keyboard-interactive,password
debug3: authmethod_lookup gssapi-with-mic
debug3: remaining preferred: publickey,keyboard-interactive,password
debug3: authmethod_is_enabled gssapi-with-mic
debug1: Next authentication method: gssapi-with-mic
debug2: we sent a gssapi-with-mic packet, wait for reply
debug1: Delegating credentials
debug1: Delegating credentials
debug1: Authentications that can continue: 
publickey,gssapi-with-mic,keyboard-interactive
debug2: we did not send a packet, disable method

Does anybody know of changes between existing STABLE releases and 8.0
which would cause this behaviour - and how to accommodate it?  Do any
strange Kerberos things need to be done as part of the upgrade?

The client still happily authenticates via GSSAPI to sshd on our other
7.2-RELEASE servers.  Subsequent authentication methods succeed on the
8.0-BETA1 sshd server, it's just GSSAPI that isn't working.

Thanks.

But is that happening at reboot time?

portsnap and freebsd-update (metadata) failure

Hi!

Quick question: Is it just me and my freshly installed FreeBSD 7.2
that fails when running freebsd-update or portsnap right now? With
freebsd-update I tried update4 and update1. Just ask for more info, if
it's needed to debug the problem.

Ken Smith wrote:


The amd64 and i386 architectures include a file named:

8.0-BETA1--memstick.img

If you copy that to a USB memory stick newer machines should be able to
boot from it and use it to install from.  Note that you need to
overwrite the contents of the memory stick completely, not copy it into
an existing filesystem on the memory stick.  Exactly how you do that
depends on your machine but just to give you an example this works on
the machine I tested it with:

  dd if=8.0-BETA1-amd64-memstick.img of=/dev/da0 bs=10240 conv=sync

Be careful if you have SCSI drives, more USB disks than just the memory
stick, etc - make sure /dev/da0 (or whatever you use) is the memory
stick.  Using this image for livefs based rescue mode is known to not
work, that is one of the things still being worked on.


Unfortunately my biggest mem stick has only 512MB. So I tried to dd to 
an usb drive. (Will get a bigger stick tomorrow)


I was successful in installing the image, although, a few packages did 
not install. I did a kern developer package. I guess the packages are 
missing on the .img?


Right now I'm installing the other things via net.

Is this method equal to an usb stick install at all?

Below the top of dmesg.

TIA,
Andreas

ZFS: zpool scrub lockup

2009-07-08 Thread Thomas Ronner
Hello,

I don't know whether this is the right list; maybe freebsd-fs is more
appropriate. So please redirect me there if this isn't the right place.

My system (i386, Athlon XP) locks hard when scrubbing a certain pool. It
has been doing this for at least a couple of months now. For this reason
I upgraded to 7.2-STABLE recently as this had the latest ZFS bits, but
this doesn't help. It even makes the problem worse: in previous versions
I just hit the reset button and forgot about it, but now it "remembers"
that it was scrubbing (I presume) and tries to resume at the exact same
place, locking up again. This means I haven't been able to mount these
ZFS volumes successfully: the moment I do a /etc/rc.d/zfs start from
single user mode (I have my /, /var and /usr on UFS) it locks up in a
couple of seconds. And by locks up I really mean locks up. No panic,
nothing. Pressing the reset button on the chassis is the only way to
reboot. 

Details about my system:
Athlon XP 2400+
Asus K7V-880 (VIA chipset; 2 IDE, 2 SATA ports)
2 GB RAM
Promise Ultra133-TX2 (2 port IDE controller)
Promise SATA150 4 port SATA controller
Promise SATA300 4 port SATA controller
4 Maxtor 300 GB IDE disks
1 Maxtor 300 GB SATA disk
1 WD 320 GB SATA disk
6 Samsung 1 TB SATA disks

The Samsung disks form the pool I'm having trouble with. They are
connected to the Promise controllers.

Does anyone know how I can debug this? I'm not even sure whether it is a
software or a hardware problem. Any help is greatly appreciated!


Regards,
Thomas

8.0-BETA1 Source Upgrade breaks NTP configuration

2009-07-08 Thread John Marshall
Yesterday I source-upgraded a 7.2-RELEASE-p2 test i386 server to
8.0-BETA1.  I have just discovered that it broke that server's NTP
service.

PROBLEM 1 - Existing /etc/ntp.conf overwritten

For source upgrades I run "mergemaster -iCPU" and it has served me well
until now.  Mergemaster appeared to run "as normal" for this upgrade,
prompting me for decisions on how to deal with the handful of usual
files.  It didn't tell me that it had decided to overwrite my existing
/etc/ntp.conf with the new default version from the source tree!  (OK,
perhaps it told me in the big, long list at the end but it didn't prompt
me to supersede my existing file).

Looking at the mergemaster(8) man page, I can't see how the options I
use would have resulted in my existing /etc/ntp.conf being overwritten
with the version from the source tree - but obviously there is a woops
factor there, either with me or mergemaster.

Digging deeper, it looks like it may be due to the fact that this is a
new supplied file and an entry for /etc/ntp.conf didn't exist in
/var/db/mergemaster.mtree from the previous (7.2-RELEASE) run.  How
should this be handled?

PROBLEM 2 - Default ntp.conf uses LOCAL clock

So, having had the FreeBSD upgrade magically re-configure my NTP server
(no, I wasn't prompted to overwrite ntp.conf), I find that my NTP server
is now synchronizing with it's own (potentially wrong) local system
clock!  Our firewall is configured to allow NTP traffic between our
internal NTP servers and specific upstream NTP servers.  The default
configuration file specifies different servers which we don't use, so
this NTP server couldn't "see" them.

The new default configuration file includes "127.127.1.0" as a
configured server.  Because we could see no "real" NTP servers, we
synchronized with our local system clock.  That means that we think we
are synchronized to a reliable upstream source.  Rather than losing
synch and discovering the problem, we think we are synchronized to a
reliable source and we and our clients drift away from reality in
blissful ignorance.  Surely this violates POLA!

Could we *please* at least comment out the LOCAL server config in the
supplied ntp.conf?  Personally I would rather see it removed.  It is one
thing to tell people where the gun is if they want to shoot themselves
in the foot; it's another thing to load it and fire it for them.

I think it is good to have a default ntp.conf to help new users get
started.  I think it is a bad thing to include potentially dangerous
elements in that configuration which could cause grief to a novice NTP
administrator.  If the default configuration provides scope for such
surprises, they will (rightly) blame FreeBSD.

Correct, no packages with BETA1.  It's probably the documentation
packages it went looking for and couldn't find.  I'll be providing at
least the docs packages with BETA2.  Not sure if I'll start trying to
provide a larger set of packages for the DVD or wait for BETA3 for that
(leaning towards waiting at the moment).

Re: ZFS: drive replacement performance

2009-07-08 Thread Jonathan

On 7/7/2009 8:13 PM, Mahlon E. Smith wrote:

I also tried another export/import cycle, in the random hope that would
stop the active replace -- no dice.  *However*, on the import, now I see
this flooding my console (wasn't there previously, strangely):

Jul  7 16:50:15 disobedience root: ZFS: vdev I/O failure, zpool=store 
path=/dev/da2 offset=262144 size=8192 error=6
Jul  7 16:50:15 disobedience root: ZFS: vdev I/O failure, zpool=store 
path=/dev/da2 offset=499988824064 size=8192 error=6


I actually just had this exact issue with a dead drive, controller 
renumbering, and vdev I/O failure.  I eventually shut the system down 
completely, pulled the new drive, checked all the drive connections, 
powered the machine back up without the new drive.  Then I inserted the 
new drive and initiated a scan for it.  Apparently ZFS doesn't realize 
when a resilver is partially done because it resilvered in a matter of 
seconds at this point.  I then did a scrub which found several million 
checksum errors but successfully corrected the pool without any vdev I/O 
failure errors.


I hope this helps,
