Extremely slow boot on VMWare with Opteron 2352 (acpi?)

2010-03-09 Thread Kevin Day
I'm troubleshooting a pretty weird problem with running FreeBSD 8.0 (amd64) inside VMware ESX/ESXi servers. We've got a wide range of physical servers running identical copies of VMware and identical FreeBSD virtual machines. Everything works fine on all of our servers for Windows and Linux VMs

southbridge recognition

2010-03-09 Thread volker
Hi! For some driver enhancements, I need to decide (by code) which southbridge (Intel, AMD is all that matters) the driver is facing. What's the best (portable wise) way to distinguish the chipset? Intel supports two pages of 128 byte CMOS RAM, AMD supports 1 page of 256 byte (addressing is diff

Can you look at the device/vendor IDs of pci device 0:31:0? That's always worked for me, but I've only ever done it on Intel platforms so I'm not sure if it works on AMD chipsets. ___ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mail

256MB is correct. The PCI standard allows for up to 256 buses, each with up to 32 slots, and each slot can have up to 8 functions. PCIe devices have a full 4096 bytes worth of configuration registers. Multiply all that and you get 256MB. Also, keep in mind that it's not allocating 256MB of memor

VMDirectPath with FreeBSD 8 VM under ESXi 4.0

2010-03-09 Thread Christopher Smith
I wasn't 100% on where this should go, but -hackers seemed like a reasoned starting point. My overall objective is to setup a ZFS fileserver VM, and for my first attempt I am trying to use VMDirectPath (ie: PCI pass-through) with a FreeBSD 8.0 VM under ESXi 4 to pass-through the moterboard chipset
