8.1-STABLE: Weird behaviour with some network services
Hello, I'm running FreeBSD 8.1-STABLE amd64 r215423 on a Q9400 with 6GB RAM. Base system is on a geom_mirror, everything else is inside a few ZFS raidz1 pools. Everything except sshd runs inside jails. Three days ago I noticed that my audio/icecast2 (2.3.2, from ports) suddenly stopped processing connections. Couldn't stop it conventionally, either; only kill -9 worked. Then the same day Apache's httpd (2.2.18, prefork, built manually) stopped responding; child processes were stuck in defunct state and never finished, and the dispatcher didn't spawn any new ones. However in this case 'apachectl restart' worked, and defunct processes were successfully killed. With gdb attached to icecast2, I can see 6 threads running, all of them except two being inside nanosleep(). The main process seems to be stuck at 453 ret = poll(ufds, global.server_sockets, timeout); Step by step execution in gdb inside poll() have somehow unfrozen the process at least once. Any advice on what might be the issue here? There are no issues with the HDDs (or so it seems; nothing in dmesg, and SMART health assessment is All OK). I haven't tried to restart the server as it's really unwelcome (and I doubt it's a proper solution). I've also did make -j8 buildworld to see if there might be RAM issues (as buildworld usually crashes on faulty RAM). No problems, either. Thanks in advance. P.S. Please CC, I am not subscribed to this list. -- Kamigishi Rei KREI-RIPE signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

GCC when compiling and linking certain programs, ebook for example, emits messages in various colors. How is that done? Whatever it is that is writing the messages is putting out 'terminal control' character strings that specify the color. Where does one find what the various colors are supposed to signify? Read the _complete_ documentation for 'whatever it is' that is producing the messages. The colors signify 'whatever it is' that the author of that software chose to represent with that color. There are *NO* universal standards for such things. Or, is it just because it's more appealing? (A) appealing is in the eye of the beholder. (B) *why* 'somebody' did something/anything is known *only* to the party that actually _did_ it. You can ether ask *them* or get uninformed speculation from third parties. In broad, diagsnotic messages can be divided into a minimum of 4 'classes' (finer gradation is always possible): diagnostic -- 'gory details' of what the program is doing internally, to find out where what it is actually doing is different from what one 'expects' it to be doing. informational -- things you might 'want to know about', but do not indicate potentially incorrect operation. warning -- things which *probably* indicate a problem, but might be 'as intended' error -- something which is, without question, incorrect, and prevents proper program operation. A developer -might- use different colors for different 'classes' of messages, so that an experienced user of that program (who 'knows' what color is used for what) can tell 'at a glance' the serverity of the thing being reported.

For example, I found this in my bookmarks file: http://phil.freehackers.org/pretty-make/index.html I think it's mostly aesthetics, but some people claim that using different colors for different build steps makes it easier to monitor the progress of the build.

help requested in fixing disk label mistake
A couple of days ago, I reorganized the internal hard drive of my machine to reclaim space that used to be occupied by another operating system for use with my now exclusively FreeBSD system. I used a stand-alone partition manager to edit the slices down to just two slices. I then attempted to bsdlabel the first slice, but made a bit of a slip. When I should have typed bsdlabel -w ad0s1 I actually typed bsdlabel -w da0s1 Oops. I went ahead with the work on the internal drive (ad0), and the system is up and running fine. Now I'd like to try to fix the damage done to the external drive that I relabeled by mistake. That drive's layout before the damage was done was a single slice, divided into two partitions (da0s1 and da0s2), each of which was then glabel'ed. The moment I rewrote the bsdlabel for the first slice by mistake, the two partitions' entries in /dev/label vanished, of course. I checked and discovered that the only external drive for which I had not kept backup copies of the bsdlabel information was that drive. :-( Fortunately, the full backups of the file systems that I needed to reload onto the internal drive were in the first partition of the external drive in question (used to be s1d, now s1a for the time being), so by mounting /dev/da0s1a I still had full access to the file system containing the backups. My hypothesis is if I can somehow rewrite a correct bsdlabel for the affected slice, that the system will then recognize the glabel metadata for the two partitions immediately, and the /dev/label entries will appear right away like magic. Unfortunately, without a backup file of the bsdlabel information, I'm unsure how to accomplish that. Is there some way that I can discover the exact size in sectors of the first partition, so that I could edit the bsdlabel information and redefine it as two partitions of the correct sizes and offsets? Is there some field in dumpfs(8) output that would give me what I need (allowing, of course, for the fact that the first partition is actually one sector longer than anything dumpfs(8) would know about due to the glabel metadata in the final sector of the partition)? Or is my hypothesis stated above actually incorrect, and if so, why/how?

Networking problem running inside Virtualbox
I'm trying to track down a problem that seems to have been introduced after FreeBSD 8.0. I'm trying to install FreeBSD inside a virtualbox guest whose host is a Win7 64bit box running Vbox 4.0.2 PC-BSD based on FreeBSD 8.0 works fine. But FreeBSD 8.1 does not. Here is what does not work means in my case. Depending on the specific network adapter emulated in Vbox for FreeBSD I get the following: PC-Net II (works) PC-Net III (no dhcp address setup) Intel Pro/1000 MT Desktop (dhcp works, but network stack somehow does not. No network connectivity after dhcp assignment.) Intel Pro/1000 T Server (same as MT Desktop) Intel Pro/1000 MT Server (same as MT Desktop) I posted this question on the virutalbox mailing list and got a reply from someone else who is tracking the same issue I am, but neither of us have an answer. Because FreeBSD 8.0 works no matter what ethernet card is simulated and because PC-Net II still does work in 8.1, I suspect that FreeBSD is the culprit, but I can't prove it. All my other OSes work fine its just FreeBSD that gives me fits. I'm willing to make this problem report better, but I don't really understand how to debug this in the vm container.

My Asterisk server is trying to drive me insane
I have a FreeBSD 8.1 pf firewall, and a FreeBSD 8.1 system running Asterisk 1.8. I have been hammering at this for a few weeks now with little forward progress. I'm about to go nuts trying to figure out what the hell is going on. I have set up asterisk to trunk to my provider, and originally I couldn't get incoming calls working but I could ring out- I'm happy to report I can now receive incoming calls, but annoyingly now I can't ring out! In order to get incoming calls I had to upgrade from asterisk 1.4 - 1.8 and change my firewall settings: $voip = asterisk server $nodephone = provider server $voip_tcp = 5060 $voip_udp = { 5060, 4569, 5036, 2727 } nat on $ext_if inet proto { tcp, udp } from any port $voip_tcp to any - ($ext_if) port $voip_tcp rdr on $ext_if inet proto { tcp, udp } from any to ($ext_if) port $voip_tcp - $voip port $voip_tcp rdr on $ext_if inet proto { tcp, udp } from $voip port $voip_tcp to any port $voip_tcp - ($ext_if) port $voip_tcp block log (all, log) block in quick on $ext_if from $no_route_ips to any block out quick on $ext_if from any to $no_route_ips pass in $log on $ext_if inet proto tcp from any to $voip port $voip_tcp flags S/SA keep state pass in $log on $ext_if inet proto udp from any to $voip port $voip_udp keep state pass out $log on $int_if inet proto udp from any port $voip_udp to $voip port $voip_udp keep state pass out $log on $int_if inet proto tcp from any port $voip_tcp to $voip port $voip_tcp flags S/SA keep state pass out $log on $ext_if from $localnet to any Everything appears to work, but the provider comes back with 200 and asterisk seems to do nothing and so it times out and errors with what it says is circuit busy from the provider. tcpdump from both m/c's shows traffic to and from the asterisk server and the provider on port 5060, but rtp traffic (port 2+) between the provider and asterisk only when an incoming call comes in, and between asterisk and the client. Also in the invites from asterisk to the provider it says audio at port 5060. Am I missing something? I've tried the Asterisk list but I've gotten only one miniscule reply in nearly a weeks time, and my provider will not support Asterisk and won't say boo (mainly dependent on who you talk to at the time)- the only thing I get is its working their end (yay for them... :P). Incidentally, their only response (to any problems with the service: asterisk, ata's, whatever) is to open up all ports between our server and your server/ata. Apparently they automagically get around nat issues so nat is not necessary. But my main issue with that is what happens if someone spoofs their ip address? Not to mention I want to host this service (not their trunk, but my services) so I need to be able to accept from more than just their server. They don't seem to be able to track the ports they're using. The only change I can tell is the upgrade to 1.8 and firewall settings that now allow me to receive calls- am I doomed to have only one or the other :( ?
