correct way to setup gmirror on 7.4?
I'm migrating away from my old pseudo-RAID partitions to GEOM gmirror and I have some questions on the right way to accomplish this. I've got two new 1TB disks that I'm setting up for the new mirror, and unfortunately they're Western Digital drives with 4k sectors that report themselves as 512b. Here's what I'm currently doing to setup this array. The disks are detected as ad4 and ad6 on my FreeBSD 7.4 server. # initialize/wipe MBR dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad4 bs=512 count=79 dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad6 bs=512 count=79 # gpart gpart create -s gpt ad4 gpart create -s gpt ad6 gpart bootcode -b /boot/pmbr ad4 gpart bootcode -b /boot/pmbr ad6 # add partitions gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -l raidhome1-2 -b 2048 -s 195330048 ad4 gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -l raidhome2-2 -b 2048 -s 195330048 ad6 gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -l raidvault1-2 -b 195338240 -s 1758167040 ad4 gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -l raidvault2-2 -b 195338240 -s 1758167040 ad6 (I'm using these partition start values because they divide evenly into 4k blocks. I don't mind wasting a few MB on each disk to have correctly-aligned partitions) gpart show ad4 =>34 1953525101 ad4 GPT (932G) 342014 - free - (1.0M) 2048 1953300481 freebsd-ufs (93G) 1953320966144 - free - (3.0M) 195338240 17581670402 freebsd-ufs (838G) 1953505280 19855 - free - (9.7M) gpart show ad6 =>34 1953525101 ad6 GPT (932G) 342014 - free - (1.0M) 2048 1953300481 freebsd-ufs (93G) 1953320966144 - free - (3.0M) 195338240 17581670402 freebsd-ufs (838G) 1953505280 19855 - free - (9.7M) gmirror label -v -n -b round-robin gm0p1 /dev/ad4p1 newfs -U -b 32768 -f 4096 -S 4096 /dev/mirror/gm0p1 gmirror label -v -n -b round-robin gm0p2 /dev/ad4p2 newfs -U -b 32768 -f 4096 -S 4096 /dev/mirror/gm0p2 (then I mount /dev/mirror/gm0p1 and /dev/mirror/gm0p2 and copy data from my original array to this new array) Finally I insert the ad6 disk and wait for the array to sync: gmirror configure -a gm0p1 gmirror insert gm0p1 /dev/ad6p1 gmirror configure -a gm0p2 gmirror insert gm0p2 /dev/ad6p2 Once the array is synchronized things generally look good, although after a reboot I did see the following that had me concerned (from dmesg output): GEOM: ad4: the primary GPT table is corrupt or invalid. GEOM: ad4: using the secondary instead -- recovery strongly advised. Am I using the correct process to create this array? Since I still have my old array in the system I can rebuild it again if needed, and would prefer to do it correctly if I'm not already.

In my setup I am mirroring only partitions, creating partitions ad4p1, ad6p1, ad4p2 and ad6p2 with gpart first, and then mirrors gm0p1 and gm0p2 on top of those. I'd prefer not to mirror the whole disk. The "primary GPT table is corrupt or invalid" error I'm seeing is with this configuration.

I'm copying data to the arrays now and will insert my /dev/ad6 partitions after that. I'll reboot once more to confirm no strangeness (apart from GEOM complaining about my sector boundaries due to these 4k-reporting-as-512b disks).

When doing that I ran into the secondary GPT block displaying as "not found" during boot. As I mentioned, I didn't know if that was a problem per-se, which is why I posted to the list to see if there was a better way of mirroring partitions.

In your test case, is the IP of your VM 192.168.1.101? If so, then I don't think you want that IP aliased on the physical interface of your bridge. The VM NIC will answer for packets destined on your local segment, which the bridge would forward to the physical interface. If you assign the VM's IP to that physical interface, then your host would think that traffic is destined for itself and not pass it to the bridge. If I'm misunderstanding and the 192.168.1.101 alias (or whatever the equiv in your production setup) isn't being used by your VM then I would start looking at the ARP traffic crossing both the tap0, lo0, and physical interfaces. What does an 'ifconfig -a' look like on both systems? netstat -rn?

When trying to mount a geli partition I'd intermittently get a bad decryption key error. Run the same command again to mount the partition and it'd work fine. This was using both password and key-file operations. IIRC when I disabled padlock acceleration it worked fine in my limited testing.

I've noticed this with ntpd myself in various scenarios, mainly when using MPD (via a ng_pppoe tunnel) and the tunnel drops-out from underneath ntpd. Normally when this happens I see two instances of ntpd running instead of one, and it doesn't respond to a normal kill signal.

Mainly little scripts to enable specific LEDs at the end of the boot process and to copy misc. read-only files from the CF into a memory filesystem during boot.

update from RELEASE to STABLE changed /dev/ad or geom behavior?
Hello all, To fix a bug in PF I recently updated my home firewall platform (a shrunk-down install of FreeBSD 6 on a CompactFlash card mounted read-only as /dev/ad0a) from the RELENG_6_2 to the RELENG_6 branch. All went very well there and the PF problem is resolved, but now I've run across a new issue. Previously, when updating my CompactFlash image "in the field", I would boot the system into single-user mode via serial console, setup a small memory filesystem big enough to hold gzip, dd, and reboot (and their required libraries, with LD_LIBRARY_FLAGS set appropriately), copy the new flash image to the mfs, and run (from the MFS) "gzip -dc 16 # gzip -dc http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I can see using polling on a router or some device that funnels traffic through multiple interfaces, but rarely have I seen it useful on a single-homed box where sysctls might be better used to limit connections. May be old news, but I've read that polling on a SMP machine is questionable anyway (http://info.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/polling/). -Proto ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Trying to initialize padlock support on Via C7 Eden CPU
Hello, I purchased a Jetway J7F4K1G2E w/VIA Eden 1.2GHz cpu/motherboard combo (http://e-itx.com/jetway-j7f4k1g2e-mini-itx-motherboard.html) that I'm trying to get working with the FreeBSD padlock driver. Based on what I see from the manufacturer's CPU support list , http://www.jetwaycomputer.com/VIA3.html, I have a C7 Esther processer. It looks like the CPUID for this processor isn't recognized by FreeBSD 6.3-RC1 or 7.0-BETA3. GENERIC on 7.0-BETA3 detects the CPU as follows: CPU: VIA/IDT Unknown (1200.01-MHz 686-class CPU) Origin = "CentaurHauls" Id = 0x6d0 Stepping = 0 Features=0xa7c9baff Features2=0x4181 ... padlock0: No ACE support. The other list posts I've seen for the C7 reference a 0x6a9 Id with a stepping of 9. I added a small patch to /sys/i386/i386/identcpu.c to detect this Id: --- sys/i386/i386/identcpu.c.old2007-05-29 19:39:18.0 + +++ sys/i386/i386/identcpu.c2007-12-21 13:54:57.0 + @@ -585,6 +585,8 @@ goto via_common; case 0x6a0: strcpy(cpu_model, "VIA C7 Esther"); + case 0x6d0: + strcpy(cpu_model, "VIA C7 Esther"); via_common: do_cpuid(0xc000, regs); i = regs[0]; And now GENERIC sees the Esther along with the supported crypto functions, but padlock doesn't initialize: CPU: VIA C7 Esther+RNG+AES+AES-CTR+SHA1+SHA256+RSA (1200.01-MHz 686-class CPU) Origin = "CentaurHauls" Id = 0x6d0 Stepping = 0 Features=0xa7c9baff Features2=0x4181 ... padlock0: No ACE support. Unfortunately I'm at a loss on where to go next. I looked through initcpu.c and everything in /sys/crypto/via/ but I don't grok C so I don't really know what I'm looking at. Any ideas on how to get this CPU supported with padlock would be much appreciated.

I would recommend this based on my own personal experience. PSUs are the single most-replaced component in both my desktops and servers (white-box servers anyway), and I've spent countless hours trying to track down similar issues only to have the problem disappear when the power supply was replaced. I keep a collection of various spare PSUs at my site just for this purpose, as its often not a case of IF a power supply will start going out, but WHEN. Your mileage may vary of course, but if it were me I'd try replacing the PSU first and see if the situation improves. -Proto ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I'm running 6.2-pre on a Soekris Engineering Net4501 with ttyd0 enabled in /etc/ttys and I'm not having any problems with the system booting or logging in via serial console. SSH logins work fine and the network is brought-up as normal during boot. I've had this system in the same config (in regards to /etc/ttys) since the 6 was still the HEAD branch and I have yet to see problems with it. One difference here is that I don't have any virtual consoles enabled BUT ttyd0 (and pseudo-terminals), as this box doesn't have a video card, just a serial port.

Re: Compiler Options
>From /usr/src/sys/conf/kern.mk: # On the i386, do not align the stack to 16-byte boundaries.

Re: RELENG_4 on flash disk and swap
In this case I'd just ignore swap. Since /dev/md0 is only a memory disk anyway, you don't really buy anything by having it as swap as opposed to unallocated RAM. Just make sure that all your running programs are able to fit in the 256Mb of RAM you have, otherwise processes will fail to start or others will die when they need to allocate additional RAM. I'm running FreeBSD in 64Mb with no swap and it works fine.

Just curious, do you have ipv6 enabled in your kernel and working on your Ethernet interface? It looks like you're only getting an ipv6 address returned by the resolver for nom.uct.ac.za.

In my case, my external interface was a Netgraph tunnel interface (ng0) ports/net/mpd which would sometimes die at the hands of my Internet provider. When the tunnel would die and then get rebuilt, ntpd would give this error because it was still bound to the old tunnel. My fix was to create an mpd startup script that would restart ntpd whenever ng0 was recreated. In any case, perhaps it is due to your Internet connection not being available when ntpd starts? You could verify that your time is still being synced by running ntpdc at the command line, then running "peers" at the prompt. -Proto ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

You mentioned you tried several of the knobs for fetch, but did you try the same fetch with the -p flag? fetch -p ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6.1-release/Latest/xpdf.tbz -Proto ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
