Working with a slimmed down install svn_61 the ifconfig -a plumb used to search interfaces from devinfo tree is failing with the error: ifconfig: di_init failed; check the devinfo driver
looking through the source code I matched it to this line section of code: 476 static void 477 foreachinterface(void (*func)(), int argc, char *argv[], int af, 478 int64_t onflags, int64_t offflags, int64_t lifc_flags) 479 { 480 int n; 481 char *buf; 482 struct lifnum lifn; 483 struct lifconf lifc; 484 struct lifreq *lifrp; 485 struct lifreq lifrl; /* Local lifreq struct */ 486 int numifs; 487 unsigned bufsize; 488 ni_t *nip; 489 int plumball = 0; 490 int save_af = af; 491 492 /* 493 * Special case: 494 * ifconfig -a plumb should find all network interfaces 495 * in the machine by traversing the devinfo tree. 496 * Also, there is no need to SIOCGLIF* ioctls, since 497 * those interfaces have already been plumbed 498 */ 499 if (argc > 0 && (strcmp(*argv, "plumb") == 0)) { 500 /* 501 * Look through the kernel's devinfo tree for 502 * network devices 503 */ 504 di_node_t root; 505 506 /* 507 * DINFOCACHE is equivalent to DINFOSUBTREE | DINFOMINOR | 508 * DINFOPROP | DINFOFORCE. 509 */ 510 if ((root = di_init("/", DINFOCACHE)) == DI_NODE_NIL) { 511 (void) fprintf(stderr, "ifconfig: di_init failed;" 512 " check the devinfo driver.\n"); 513 exit(1); 514 } Can someone say what is causing this error or where I may look to resolve this. I suspect something with devfsadm/d and /etc/path_to_inst, /etc/devices/snapshot_cache but I am stumped as to what is wrong. If I manually ifconfig plumb the interface it works fine. When i do a truss it seems to fail after /devices/pseudo/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:devinfo ioctl(4, ioctl(4,0xD... = ENOTACTIVE thanks for any halp in advance This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
