The order of your builds in previous messages had the kernel built on an old world. You are supposed to do the buildworld first and then, build and install the kernel.

It seems to be at the top of the tree somewhere because people are also seeing the watchdog timeouts on em and I get them on the gigabit re's. I got them downloading the kde-3.5.4 distfiles on a 768kb DSL line. I had setiathome running, which keeps the cpu useage close to 100%.

On single processors, using a script that basically looked like time make -j? ... yielded fastest builds when I didn't specify a value for -j. On dual cpu's a value around -j8 yielded the fastest build. I am not interested in system and user time. To me the fastest build is the one that produced the smallest wallclock time or elapsed time, which is the 3rd field in the output of time. The fastest build also yielded the highest cpu utilization, which is the 4th field. I figure specifying a value for -j on single cpu system is simply thrashing the cpu by forcing it to save the environment to work on a different section of the build. I also found that mounting /usr/src and /usr/obj on different controller/HDs from the system reduced the build time. I was using ata-133 HDs and a good scsi would be change the results. It is too easy to test in your environment to see what produces the fastest buildworld. I am going to have to upgrade at some point and an AMD X2 should be interesting.

I had ata-133 or 100 HDs on individual controllers. Comparing an ata based system with a scsi isn't a real comparison. My tests are at http://users.owt.com/kstewart/freebsd/urban_legends.html and I see I got the shortest elapsed time with -j4 and -j8. It has been too long to remember what I did to improve the -j8.

My system was the next step up and is also too old to consider current. His cpus were Intel Pentium pro 200MHZ and the bus speed alone (66MHz) would make a big difference.

It is located in ports/Tools/scripts/ I moved it into a directory in my path. Then, I added an alias search'portsearch -n $1' You can do interesting things like search ^bison Where the port name begins with bison. There are a number of other interesting options.

Also, I don't know if your pkgtools.conf ignore will affect the building of the INDEX-*. If you ignore anything, you usually have to fetch an INDEX-* because you can't build a proper INDEX.

Non-boot on RELENG_6 1930 UTC source using XP's ntldr
I updated my system on 22 March with sources available on the mirrors at 11:30 PST and ended up with a system that wouldn't boot. It would get to the point that I chose FreeBSD using ntldr and it just stopped. The XP sytem used an older boot1 to boot FreeBSD. I could use the 6.0-Release CD fixit option to go back to the system update of 18 March. Since then, I have found that if I unload the 18 March kernel, load the 22 March kernel and boot, I get a btx dump. However, if you replace the old boot1 used by the ntldr with the one created by the new version of the OS, you can boot just fine.

Xorg hang on recent 6.1 build
I cvsuped RELENG_6 and went through the usual motions to make the world, kernel and install them. Everything was ok until I rebooted and started KDE and the x-session stopped. I could login for other computers and xorg was using 97% of the cpu. After rebooting it 2x and using root the 2nd time and still have it hang. I did a diff of GENRIC and RUBY. GENERIC had the new kbdmux parameter. After I rebuilt the kernel and booted to it, I haven't had any problems using the machine. If not adding kbdmux to the kernel config file can hang the user's x-session, I think some sort of warning should be added to UPDATING.

If you have never been bitten by a kernel that would only panic, you have no problems. If you have, you know that you can boot the old kernel and continue without any problems until some one solves the panic. You will not most likely hit that situation on a security based version but this is freebsd-stable and it can happen at any time. My attitude is that if you don't boot -s, you are simply playing Russian-roulette with your system. Some day, it will bite you.

I'm also running the slow end on the bios memory setting. The wz beta bios is supposed to deal with some memory timing questions. I have downloaded wz but haven't flashed the bios yet. I am running uz, which became w? (their www server is overloaded and can't see what they called the uz when it was released). Abit is also up to KT7a and 686B. I have both Maxtor's (30 GB and 40 GB - ATA100's) set to do only UDMA 33 using Maxtor's udmaupdt.exe program. That didn't help FreeBSD. Windows 2000 didn't have any problems at the UDMA66 setting and just slowed down a little bit at the UDMA33 setting. I have three other systems based on the bx chipset that don't have problems doing UDMA33. If I time my upworld script, I see user times of 18xx seconds and 1.5-1.8 hours wall clock. I figure the difference between doing an update (cvsup of RELENG_4 to installworld) in 40 minutes wall-clock and what I have now is disk transfer speed related. Setiathome runs at ~40% cpu in the background (niced to 19). Because it is only using available cpu time, killing setiathome before I started the builds didn't change the build time significantly. I have a Promise ATA66 card that I am going to try but will have to move one of the HD's and CDROM before the 80-pin cable will reach. The main drive is all by itself on the ide1 controller.

Re: Mergemaster

It will try to change all of the configuration files that have been updated. If you have added local mods, they disappear. I don't let it touch my firewall rules, ppp.conf, passwd, or groups. It will also try to change files root uses but I don't let it. I check when it changes my dot."*" files. If I have added local aliases or paths, I don't want them removed. The choices provided by mergemaster on them is always i(nstall new), d(elete new), or m(erge). On the special files, I usually press the enter key, which is none of the above and do them individually. Then, I go through after everything is done and merged what was important out of the files in /var/tmp/temproot/etc. If you include the header information at the top, it ignore that file in the future until the it is modified by the maintainer. The rest of the files I usually add the new mods. It is really convient to do this all from a second computer. Being able to do that depends on your system. You could also do it from x-windows but that really uses a lot of memory that would usually be more beneficial to the compilers. I just happen to set my system up such that I can do an installworld in multi-user mode. Not everyone can do this. It is discussed in /usr/src/UPDATING. The advantage is that it lets me telnet or ssh in and do everything from several sessions. When I get through, I reboot from the console.

That was my point. You have to recognize what you have modified and don't let mergemaster delete your changes unless they need to be.

On most of my files the merge option was ok but then I found a couple of files such as rc.firewall or ppp.conf where mergemaster was looking at such a small part of the picture that it was confusing. A poor choice and your access to the world suddenly disappears and you have to grab the backup and start over. I used its diff as a basis even when I did it manually.

I've also attached the generated HTML file, for those of you > that don't want to build the docs. Comments? Yes, there are several things that I think are basically wrong. On the -j4 option, what was -current is now 4.0-release or later. On a fast uniprocessor system, using -j4 on the make actually causes the buildworld to run 10% or more longer by the clock. Your user and system time may be shorter but the build takes forever. You are adding overhead to access I/O that the HD's can't provide and the cpu is left in an idle state waiting for I/O. This becomes especially true on large single HD's. Turning on softupdates helps. I have a AMD Thunderbird 900 with 256MB of PC-133 memory that I tried various combinations on. I added ATA-100 HD's until I had reasonable build times. I eventually ended up with 3 and had each on its own controller. I haven't tried fast scsi yet but I think the majority of the new users are building systems around IDE drives and you can see the slowdown when you use -jx with x >= 2. It isn't bad for people running setiathome because it will continue to use 40% or more of the cpu and doesn't interfere. When the percentage reported by time goes over 100%, which it can for multiprocessor systems, setiathome didn't get much time. That data also wasn't included in my table. The only system that can use -j4 is a dual headed system (2-P-III 866's with 256MB of PC-133) with the source on a 2-HD HPT-370 raid-0 array. The system has 3-30GB Maxtor ATA-100 HD's all on different controllers. The variation in build time ran from 1:21 to 34 minutes with softupdates and /usr/src on the raid-0 array. If I tee the output from the build to a file, it only slows the build down to 35:xx minutes. Some entries from my build times log are: buildworld, softupdates, 1-HD 1597.238u 629.123s 47:52.34 77.5% 1227+1393k 42713+11617io 1575pf+0w raid-0 for /usr/obj but no softupdates. 1599.347u 628.302s 1:21:36.28 45.4% 1230+1395k 44554+138574io 1828pf+0w raid-0 (64k) for /usr/src, -j4, and softupdates for everything but / 1655.441u 730.090s 34:16.34 116.0% 1210+1380k 47507+3918io 1881pf+0w make buildworld with tee'ed logging and current setup from above 1665.892u 702.004s 35:14.42 111.9% 1211+1387k 51575+4140io 1918pf+0 The chflag noschg isn't needed on 4.2. I don't know when that was changed but you don't have to use it to rm -rf * files in /usr/obj. Of course, if you have a kern_secure level set in 4.2, you can't noschg anything from multi-user mode and the installkernel will die trying to mv the kernel's around. You have to be running in single user mode to get around the kern_secure level setting.

Since Mergemaster is the suggested way of updating /etc, why not add a "don't forget to run mergemaster message" at the end of installworld. Then add the Beta message at the very front of motd. The ones that use a script will never see it but then they probably don't need to. It might even be added using a #if define of some sort. I don't have any idea if that kind of logic is possible. Just an idea that popped into my mind. In several places, it is suggested that they follow stable for several weeks before they try upgrading to stable and that is being ignored. There is a sufficient number that will still drop a "whot hoppnd" message onto the stable list. I think people focus on spots of interest and ignore the rest. Their method of dealing with the number of messages.

I just tried it and it didn't work. The mount complained about incorrect super block. I had /dev/acd0c defined in my fstab as mounting /cdrom. I tried mount /cdrom and it worked.

I have one that I had to add the sbc device but the rest all worked with nothing more than "device pcm". Sound is much easier on 4.x because it is consistent there. You have to worry about pcm0 or pcm1 on 3.x. When you get the kernel made, installed, and reboot. The device shows up in dmesg. You make a device for /dev/snd? where the "? is the digit on the end of your pcm? device from your boot. I had to do a ./MAKEDEV snd0. When I finished I had sound.

My buildworld on a dual 866 coppermine system went from 42 minutes to 29 minutes. The other side effect was the -j8 parameter finally did something. Before that anything from -j2 on, actually made the buildworld run longer. I think the cpu's were starved for I/O. The system is built around 3-ATA-100 Maxtor 30GB HD's. The motherboard is a VP6 and each HD is on its own controller. Using raid-0 also slowed the compile down.

I cvsup upgraded to 4.4 and didn´t have a problem getting it to boot. I have 3 systems based on the SiS-735 chipset that have been running 4-stable. You don't have anything faster that ata-33 without recent changes by Sören. I have two systems with CDs on them and I could boot the 4.5rc1.iso and sysinstall appeared to work. It was only on the 3rd system with the dvd device that I had problems. It would boot but sysinstall was hung from startup.

Thanks. First of all, when you have a -stable problem, you are supposed ask question like this on the stable list. There, most of us have seen this, and made it past. It seems to come in 2 or 3 levels. If you are part of the easy (1st group), the instruction in /usr/src/UPDATING will get you past this problem. The headers used to be generated and now they are part of the souce. Combinations of rm and "make cleandir" are required. If the UPDATING doesn't fix it, look at the archive for stable. All of the solutions are available there.

I remember switching to shell scripts to do all of this when O'Brien updated the /binutils during the transition from 4.0 > 4.1.

Ah! Bad phrasing on my part. "Wasn't an option" meant it was the only choice. There was a race to be the first one to use the new /binutils the night he made the changes and I was the first one bitten by the old way of doing things.

On my AMD 2000+ XP, which is designed to do 20 minute buildworlds, a portsdb -U requires ~7 minutes and a make index requires ~11 minutes.

You aren't showing the error. The error 1 just means there was an error messager earlier. Since they are stopping in different places, I would expect hardware errors of some sort. If you are running a make with a "-j?", turn it off so you don't get your error message in a misleading location in the output. I personally find no -j faster then supplying a -j.

I maintain I run "kent" because I have so many aliases and shell scripts that do most of the repetitive things. I also try to keep things clean. I used to have a script that did everything from cvsup to installworld and I only had to run mergemaster when it finished. Now, I split them up into tasks that have a single purpose. I got used to doing this during my programming days. You didn't change or add many features before you started debugging what you had done. If you stepped on something you didn't know which change had done it. So, my update ports script only cvsup updates the port structure and recreates my INDEX files. Running pkgdb violates my single purpose rule. Since you really need to update your INDEX files everytime you cvsup ports-all, rebuilding the INDEX files is part of my port cvsup update script. > > As I understand "pkgdb -Fv" it is an interactive check/repair of > your installed ports/packages as referenced by the /var/db/pkg > entries (package registry datab

Another was similar to "In case of power failure, I glow in the dark", and etc. The truth was I got a higher exposure flying above 30K feet than I did at work. When I was going to school at the U of Utah, there was a coal fired plant across from the mobile home park that I lived in. I probably had a higher dose from it than any occupational exposure. Some people worked in areas with substantial backgrounds but I could only visit some of these areas. None of the ones I had access to had really high background readings.

Portupgrade only updates the ports that are identified as having been updated. You have to force the upgrade to build everything else. When I upgraded my system, I used "portupgrade -pufr imake". You may get by using -rR but you don't know if any of the library structures were changed during the upgrade from 4.2.1 to 4.3 and everything that wasn't rebuilt is still using data from the old headers.

These aren't the error message. The error 1's are telling you that you have an error. If you can't see it, you need to redirect stdout and stderr from your installworld to a file. Since it is dying in 2 different tags, and no one else is having problems, the first assumption is that you have something wrong in your setup. For example, are you cvsuping src-all? Do you have anything in /etc/make.conf? Are you running the installworld from single user mode and etc. Kent > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > on 9/9/03 6:18 PM, Alex de Kruijff at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > On Tue, Sep 09, 2003 at 04:36:12PM -0400, Elliott Perrin wrote: > >> Good Day, > >> > >> Please cc me ( [EMAIL PROTECTED] ) on responses to this, I am not > >> on either mailing list anymore. > >> > >> I cvsup'ed on the STABLE branch today (September 9th) at around > >> 2:30PM EDT.
