Kernel Panic - Unix socket communication in kernel module

2013-07-29 Thread varanasi sainath
Hello,

I am writing a kernel module in which I am trying to connect to a UNIX
socket
(UNIX domain sockets use the file system as their address name space).
Kernel module (loadable) acts as a client and User mode program acts as
server,
I have loaded the module using kldload and communication between
user and kernel module works fine,
when I try to load the kernel module from loader.conf -
auto load the kernel module at boot up leads to kernel panic
as the file system is not ready and kern_connect fails.

How to notify kernel module that File system is ready?
(any specific event flags)

Is there any specific location for Unix domain socket files?
(currently created it under /root/soc/socket )

Using MODULE_DEPEND Can I make the module dependent of file system?


Thanks.

  sade at /usr/sbin/ even in these older FreeBSDs.

I can't recall if sade was in 6.x but it certainly is in 7.x.  I think 
Devin meant to say 'in 9 and earlier'.  Yes it's taken from the fdisk 
and bsdlabel sections of sysinstall, but existed long before there was 
talk of deprecating sysinstall, apart from Jordan's self-deprecatory 
comments some 18 years ago suggesting it should be updated/replaced, as 
found under BUGS in sysinstall(8) up to at least 8.2, but not in 9.x:

 This utility is a prototype which lasted several years past its expira-

   sysinstall(8).
   
   NOTE: In HEAD, sade(8) is now a direct path to bsdinstall partedit

Well that will be alright if 'bsdinstall partedit' now does the hitherto 
missing sade functions, particulary Disklabel Editor functions such as 
allowing one to toggle newfs on particular (BSD) partitions, toggle 
softupdates, use custom newfs options, and delete-and-merge partitions?

   I don't know what the long-term goals are for sade, but it's a nice
   4-letter acronym that's a nice keystroke saver (at the very least).

As I said, unless you're into the arcane maths needed to run fdisk and 
bsdlabel manually, sade (or its functions in sysinstall) is the only 
safe and sane way to manage MBR disks.  I'd love to be proven wrong ..

And credit to you, Devin, for developing bsdconfig to replace most of 
sysinstall's other post-installation functions.  I'll have a play with 
that when I upgrade my 9.1 to 9.2 fairly soon.

portupgrade -fpv devel/bzr fails with po/sv.po:193:13: invalid multibyte sequence

2013-07-29 Thread Trond Endrestøl
Hi,

Is gettext 0.18.3 less forgiving than previous versions?
Or are some of the translations encoded wrong?

I even tried twice to forcefully upgrade everything depending on 
converters/libiconv, e.g. portupgrade -fprv converters/libiconv, but 
that didn't make a difference.

Is there anything I can do, or should I wait until the translators

I shall resist the obvious why question.

I'm assuming you're talking about a fifo here (aka named pipe, and 
occasionally called UNIX socket) rather than the BSD network socket 
interface. IIRC since 4.3BSD fifos have been implemented using sockets 
internally anyway.


Where to put it? I tend to go for /tmp but somewhere in /var might make 
more sense for something that's always supposed to be there.


I don't know how to tell when the FS is ready but it will be when init 
runs, so you might like to try the sysctl variables. Knowing that init 
is always PID 1, the value of kern.lastpid should give a hint. There may 
be an official way of doing this properly.


You could always load the module from rc.local instead.

Regards, Frank.

P.S. You do know that an fd only relates to the kernel thread it's 
currently running in?

2013-07-29 Thread Mark Felder
The right way to handle this is to get your own IP allocation and do BGP
out both providers. Then the internet can reach you over both internet
connections and when one goes down all traffic is routed through your
other connection.

Another feasible, but poor option: proxy your services out in the cloud
and have it be intelligent enough to be able to reach your content over
both providers and properly failover when one goes down.

DNS works at a higher layer that physical connections, so cannot be 
the solution, but may be required in a solution.


fail-over for WAN link failure is the solution.

For DNS, if you're running public domain named services and you cannot 
bring up the backup WAN link on the same IP as the failed primary, 
then you'll have to dynamically update the domain names with new A 
record.

The [ program is the same as the test program. It's
a valid file name and it's often used in shell scripts
instead of test.

% ll /bin/test /bin/\[ 
-r-xr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  8336 2011-08-21 20:23:20 /bin/[*
-r-xr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  8336 2011-08-21 20:23:20 /bin/test*

Consider shell scripts. When you have a script with something like

if [ -f bla.txt ]; then
... some stuff ...
fi

it is the same as

if test -f bla.txt; then
... some stuff ...
fi

It's also often being used like

[ -x blah.sh ]  do_something

which is identical to calling test and acting upon the value
of the return code.

Nothing to worry here.

YOu can _always_ counter-check by building /usr/src/bin/test
from source and compare the resulting binary. Both /bin/[
and /bin/test are usually installed as hardlinks (two file
names for one / for _the same_ file), as seen in the
corresponding Makefile:

LINKS=  ${BINDIR}/test ${BINDIR}/[

So it's not _that_ unusual. ;-)

The idea was to make shell scripts more readable as you can have
something like: 

   if [ ${x} -gt 1 ] ...

[ is a hard-link to /bin/test and the closing] ] is its last argument.

In most modern  shells its a builtin feature and /bin/[ isn't used.

I don't think you ever said if this was two links from the same 
provider, or two different providers. That's a huge factor in what your 
options are.


You'll have a hard time doing BGP-based failover with a /26. It's just 
too small a route to be announced globally.


This stuff isn't just a technical question, but also one of policy and 
politics. In order to get to a proper solution, your best option is 
probably to give the provider(s) a call, and explain what you'd like to 
do.


Depening on a lot of things, one option could be to have the provider 
owning the IP(s) tunnel it over the other link durin fault. Hard to say 
if they will, so you really nedd to talk to them.


In the meantime, DNS-failover is a lot better than nothing.


Did the OP say he was running servers at all? If there are no servers, 
then any of a number of dual-wan routers will handle the problem with no 
difficulty and minimal expense. If he is running servers, these routers 
generally come with built in software to do dynamic updates of DNS, that I 
understand works, provided you don't have unreasonable expectations about 
reliability. Just because some institutions can't stand 5 minutes of 
downtime doesn't mean there isn't a legitimate use for facilities that 
suffer 5 minutes of downtime several times a year.

 Not sure what is the best way nowadays to get own /24 or at least /26 ?


 I don't think you ever said if this was two links from the same provider,
 or two different providers. That's a huge factor in what your options are.

 You'll have a hard time doing BGP-based failover with a /26. It's just
 too small a route to be announced globally.

 This stuff isn't just a technical question, but also one of policy and
 politics. In order to get to a proper solution, your best option is
 probably to give the provider(s) a call, and explain what you'd like to do.

 Depening on a lot of things, one option could be to have the provider
 owning the IP(s) tunnel it over the other link durin fault. Hard to say if
 they will, so you really nedd to talk to them.

 In the meantime, DNS-failover is a lot better than nothing.


 Did the OP say he was running servers at all? If there are no servers,
 then any of a number of dual-wan routers will handle the problem with no
 difficulty and minimal expense. If he is running servers, these routers
 generally come with built in software to do dynamic updates of DNS, that I
 understand works, provided you don't have unreasonable expectations about
 reliability. Just because some institutions can't stand 5 minutes of
 downtime doesn't mean there isn't a legitimate use for facilities that
 suffer 5 minutes of downtime several times a year.


Yes he did... However when one line is down all
connections Internet -- LAN to certain service(e.g www) via that
connection are down as expected.

firefox build problem

just did a ports update, haven't done one for a few months.

First commercial 1080p satellite broadcasts in Afric

2013-07-29 Thread nick
The first commercial direct to home satellite broadcasting of a linear
1080p television channel will commence in Africa later this year, as
the result of the agreement by Sahara Media of Tanzania to broadcast
the Landscape Channel in full HD, commencing this autumn. This is a
first for technology and for Africa.

LandscapeHD will be available throughout Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda,
Rwanda, Malawi, Mozambique and Burundi with a satellite footprint
covering East and Central Africa. LandscapeHD is a languagelesss
instrumental music channel showing the beauty of the natural world in
the highest technical quality available to satellite broadcasters. 

LandscapeHD is a free to air music channel funded by national
government tourism advertising, as well as global and local brand
advertising, in a new languageless format only seen on the Landscape
Channel. It takes global languagless tourism and destination
advertising, previously used on the internet, and delivers it into
traditional television broadcast homes using its new proprietary
mini-server IP distribution system. This is connected to normal
in-home television services (such as cable, satellite and now the fast
developing connected tv market).

This unique distribution system is expected to deliver a raft of new
specialist music channels into traditional television distribution
over the coming twelve months, as distributors discover how this new
technology can deliver specialist music channels anywhere in the
world, without the traditional costs associated with broadcast servers
and rights societies determined to squeeze the life out of minority
music channels by the charges they levy for specialist music at the
same rate as pop music.

Contact: Nick Austin Chairman +44 1424 830628

Editors note: LandscapeHD delivers its television signal globally
from one source into any television distribution system anywhere in
the world using a broadcast television server that costs less than the
cost of an iphone and is about the same size. This technology delivers
a 24 hour music television channel into any country anywhere in the
world and into any format (adroid, smartphone, tablet, operating
system or television system) without any cost to the user. Nick Austin
was the co-founder of the Beggars Banquet music label (now often
referred to as the fifth major) and is committed to the concept of
delivering specialist msuic channels into television as the new store
for music.

Hi,

Lines are from 2 different ISPs and evn come physically via different
route  - protection again construction workers :-) Basically to be fair
I need one single IP to have such fail over  - the Citrix server.

However really not sure what is the best way - the only feasible
solution I found so far is DNS faiolver
http://www.dnsmadeeasy.com/services/dns-failover-system-monitoring/.
However I am not 100% sure how well it will work and if this may cause
more troubles and embarrassment in front of the customer than simply
giving them  in a email

gate1.example.com(primary)
gate2.example.com(backup)

to connect.

Cheers,

Peter
