I had very similar problems with a K6-2 450 on an Ax59Pro. The
K6-2 was the "original" version, with a 2.4V core voltage. I ended up
underclocking the processor to 400MHz, and the problems disappeared.

mod times after cvsup

2001-10-01 Thread Mark W. Krentel

I just cvsup'd RELENG_4_4_0_RELEASE in preparation for buildworld,
and I noticed something odd about the modification times of some of 
the files in /usr/src.  And I don't mean the S1G, Dec 1969 bug.

   % cd /usr/src && ls -ld [A-Z]*
   -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   4735 Sep  5  1999 COPYRIGHT
   drwxr-xr-x  2 root  wheel512 Apr 15 23:23 CVS
   -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   7486 Oct  1 01:28 Makefile
   -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  26977 Sep 14 13:47 Makefile.inc1
   -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   9761 Aug 27  1999 Makefile.upgrade
   -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   2642 Oct 27  2000 README
   -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  35884 Sep 14 13:46 UPDATING

The mtime on Makefile.inc1 is Sept 14, which is correct and matches
the time in the RCS Id.  But the date on Makefile is Oct 1, the time
I cvsup'd.  In the CVS repo, the date for the RELENG_4_4_0_RELEASE
version of /usr/src/Makefile should be April 25, which I can see from
http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src.

Feel free to whack me with a clue stick if I'm off base, but I thought
cvsup was supposed to preserve the mtime from the repo.  The man page
says it does.  And there were lots of files dated Oct 1.  The contents
of the files are correct, so this isn't going to break buildworld or
anything, it just surprised and puzzled me.

Anyway, I'm running 4.2-Release and I'm getting ready to build
4.4-Release.  I ftp'd and installed the new cvsup-16.1e package (nogui
binary for those of us without modula-3).  My cvsup file:

   *default  host=cvsup16.freebsd.org
   *default  prefix=/usr
   *default  base=/var/cvsup
   *default  delete  use-rel-suffix  compress
   src-all  release=cvs  tag=RELENG_4_4_0_RELEASE

As I read the cvsup man page, I shouldn't need (and probably shouldn't
use) the "preserve" keyword.  I ran the telnet test on cvsup16, and it
should be ok:

   % telnet cvsup16.freebsd.org 5999
   Trying 128.143.108.35...
   Connected to warhammer.mcc.virginia.edu.
   Escape character is '^]'.
   OK 16 1 SNAP_16_1d CVSup server ready

ipfilter accounting on VLAN

2001-10-01 Thread Michael Vasilenko


Hello

I've notice one strangeness in accounting, produced by ipfilter 3.4.20
on FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE (ipf is built-in on system)

Numbers in accounting rules, which applies to VLAN interface
(vlan0, vlan1, vlan2, etc) - VLANs have dot1q encapsulation,
just get doubled, seems to be that ipf counts packets twice -
one time on physical iface, second - on logical.

Accounting on physical interfaces works just fine.

Any help would be great, please CC: me, I'm not in list

I've had a similar problem with 4.3.

Someone in this list resolved my problem updating cvsup to the latest
version, rm -rf /usr/src and cvsup'ing again from 0.

It was some type of a bug related to files dated with 1 billion seconds
(or minutes, don't know).

Have you tried investigating the netgraph subsystem, and
ng_ether(4) in particular, perhaps in connection with the
mpd-netgraph port?

I haven't done it myself, but I'd be surprised if you couldn't
use that combination to produce a PPPoE link.  It can do just
about anything else.

I do use mpd-netgraph to run an MS-PPTP VPN link to the office,
and it does that nicely.  Entirely different issue of course,
but I was most impressed with the ng framework when I read about
it.

Well I'm about out of good advice appart from the usual stuff, which
you seem to have covered :(

 Pull ALL the cards and the LS120 and run from one drive if
possible. Beg/borrow/steal an old display card (ISA is good when you're
desperate).

A bad bus master implementation/duff card could hog the bus.
If both drives fail like this you are left with the M/B as prime
suspect.
This is pretty thin I know.

BTW the transfer rate on the Yamaha looks a bit strange.

You have stale files in your object tree. You should always nuke the
object tree between source updates,

  The dirpref change never changed how newfs works, just how directories
are located on the disk.  Would the dirpref change even speed up an
extract operation?  Quite likely not.  It might speed reading the

problems with BusLogic (aka Mylex) BT-948 controller

2001-10-01 Thread Vivek Khera

A while back, I had written about repeated kernel warnings of CCB
timeouts on one of my machines.  The messages are like these, with
varying hex values:

Sep 30 03:07:18 lorax /kernel: (da0:bt0:0:0:0): CCB 0xc7830040 - timed out
Sep 30 03:07:26 lorax /kernel: (da0:bt0:0:0:0): CCB 0xc7830040 - timed out
Sep 30 03:07:26 lorax /kernel: bt0: No longer in timeout

This card worked flawlessly under BSD/OS, where Buslogic controllers
were the preferred devices.  The driver under BSD/OS was extremely
well done.  Simply installing FreeBSD on this box resulted in these
errors.

The above errors are repored under a recent kernel/world.

2001 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/u/lorax1/usr/src/sys/LORAX  i386
The dmesg output is below.


My query last December resulted in two replies.  One person said
running a cron job to sync once per minute cleared his problem with a
Mylex 958.  Another person said to check cables.  I recall someone
saying that the drive was going bad, but that was directly to me, not
the list.
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=177791+0+/usr/local/www/db/text/2000/freebsd-stable/20001210.freebsd-stable


In the archives, I found a query from July 2000 with similar issues
with a Mylex 958.  There was one response to it (not linked in the
archive) that indicated an older BIOS should be used in the card.  I
have BIOS 5.05R, which is older than the BIOS in the original query.

Also, from December 1997, I found a message regarding older Adaptec
controllers getting these errors under load.  This person said as
far as he can tell it is a driver issue, since the cards work fine
with other operating systems, similar to my experience.
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=0+2928+/usr/local/www/db/text/2000/freebsd-stable/2618.freebsd-stable

Other than these kernel warnings (and the pause caused by these
timeouts) the machine runs just fine.  It has never crashed either
under BSD/OS nor FreeBSD on its own...

Does this seem like a driver issue?  I kind of feel like it is as it
only happens under heavy load.  I get the timeouts on the second drive
as well when I pound on it.  I don't think both drives are going bad
simultaneously...
