Just to humor us, can you first mount root then the swap device?
So swap those entries.

Can you paste line 690-700. This looks like a cvs merge conflict to me.

As I figured, statsafely (which wraps around stat(2)) returns -1 on your nfs 
mount, therefore ss never gets set. I've got no idea what the "user device 
random seed" is needed for, so I suggest you file a pr with the above info.

Additionally, you can try the following patch to see why exactly the stat(2) 
call fails:

nfs mounted root. I think that's the problem. 
If you can compile as follows:
env CFLAGS='-g -pipe' STRIP= make install

then run:
gdb /usr/local/sbin/lsof

At gdb:
(gdb) break dmnt.c:159
(gdb) run

When breaking:
(gdb) print sr
(gdb) print ln
(gdb) print dn

Do you have a mount which is a symlink?

With or without polling. Seen reports of polling enabled drivers without 
polling enabled are very slow. According to polling(4), em is polling 
capable.

Nps. I kept the old /usr/local around as /stable/usr/local to copy over 
configs and apache's webroot, but I don't see how that could've interfered, 
as I didn't add it to my PATH or anything fishy like that.

In fact, I did ldd -a /usr/local/bin/mplayer|grep pthread and it only showed 
libpthread.so.2.

Latest of everything. Portstree last updated Dec 17.
Recompiled mplayer without WITH_NVIDIA didn't make a difference. It just 
doesn't get outof the loop in PlayNode(), but I'm not farmiliar with the 
conditions mentioned therein.
Just trying to figure out if this is a local problem, pthreads problem or that 
the port is broken (with certain combinations).

I didn't. I built all ports from scratch or used 6-stable packages. I think 
it's an error in mplayer-plugin, unless you tell me it works for you, then 
the only thing that makes sense is the use of nvidia-driver.

It never reaches a condition to break outof that and that's quite a loop.

It's a clean install (well, 5.x to a new slice, then recompiled after boot).

But:
cat /var/db/pkg/compat5x-i386-5.4.0.8/+REQUIRED_BY
mplayer-0.99.7_7
nvidia-driver-1.0.8174
opera-8.51.20051114

So, recompiled. gdb looks a bit different, but the problem is the same.
0x28a8135f in pthread_testcancel () from /usr/lib/libpthread.so.2
(gdb) where
#0  0x28a8135f in pthread_testcancel () from /usr/lib/libpthread.so.2
#1  0x28a79d80 in pthread_mutexattr_init () from /usr/lib/libpthread.so.2
#2  0x in ?? ()

It's spinning an endless loop, so depending on when you attach or continue and 
send a stop signal, output is different:
0x2a1cd572 in playNode () 
from /usr/X11R6/lib/browser_plugins/mplayerplug-in-qt.so
(gdb) where
#0  0x2a1cd572 in playNode ()

#2  0x28a722f9 in pthread_create () from /usr/lib/libpthread.so.2
#3  0x28b1f367 in _ctx_start () from /lib/libc.so.6

(gdb) where
#0  0x2a1b3138 in ?? () 
from /usr/X11R6/lib/browser_plugins/mplayerplug-in-qt.so
#1  0x2a1cd525 in playNode ()

#4  0x28b1f367 in _ctx_start () from /lib/libc.so.6

Going to recompile with debug symbols and see if that makes more sense.

Seems like an error in the plugin though.

Well, I know now that my mplayer/.config was the cause of it not playing in 
it's own space. I used vo=gl2,xv. xv is the one that plays in the designated 
space.

However, I've got problems too, if I use the stop command or go to another 
page while the plugin is still loaded - gdb shows:

Hmm, so Mozilla still provides compatibility for oji java plugins, where 
firefox doesn't.
I just took a quick look at mplayerplugin source and can't find any references 
to PRThread. The plugin uses the provided top-level interfaces. Did you 
recompile the plugin?

I just installed it and it doesn't really work for me (opens a new window iso 
playing in the designated space, probably because I didn't compile mplayer 
using WITHOUT_GUI), but doesn't crash anything either.
I tried the apple movie trailers.

If 1.2.7 is secure, there is no problem. If 1.2.7 is not, portaudit will not 
let you upgrade. It seems to me, you need to farmiliarize yourself first with 
the mechanisms in place already, before shooting it.

The point is, that it is irrelevant. Ports are independant of the base system. 
There is no need for a security branch of the ports tree. The ports that rely 
on specifics in the base system, handle it themselves via BROKEN, 
FreeBSD_version and friends. The ports tree is only tagged for a specific 
release, so that release cdroms can be made.

The only thing that makes sense is pre-compiled packages being updated for 
security branches of the base system - but, that is only worth-while if 
there's a large enough userbase that has an /etc/make.conf without NO_ flags. 
Since for example I have no need for Kerberos, I cannot use the FreeBSD 
provided packages for the ones that make sense, as they all link libgssapi 
(subversion pulls it in through www/neon, smbclient because of ports/90238 
and thus kde*).

No it doesn't. Only with static linking or when interfaces changed, which is 
not always the case. The fact that the gnome project is fond of changing 
library versions with every release doesn't mean there aren't sane projects.
Typically security patches do not update library versions, allthough it is 
possible if the interface is insecure by design.

Example: freetype was updated
wc -l /var/db/pkg/freetype2-2.1.10_2/+REQUIRED_BY
 111 /var/db/pkg/freetype2-2.1.10_2/+REQUIRED_BY

Not a single port rebuilt, 111 packages re-packed, but that's it.

Hmm, not sure why that's an issue. Maybe because I set PATH in my script?

FreeBSD accepts limited responsibility for what is in /usr/ports. Maintaining 
security is not one of them.

See above. Instead of focusing on the method, focus on the end-goal: you want 
security updates on your ports and the script posted attempts to provide 
that.
I had one that was safe to run in cron (in fact it ran in periodic/daily), but 
uses a cvs tree of ports, not cvsup to save time[1]. I lost it with a disk 
crash, but was going to recreate it anyway, might as well do it now if people 
are interested.

[1] cvsup allthough faster on the entire tree cannot update a single 
directory.

This is exactly the thing you need to report via send-pr. Developers won't be 
aware of regression errors if they don't get reported.

Cx states are configured via acpi, so I'd visit the acpi list and prepare a 
dump of your acpicode for the developers to look at. See acpidump(8) for 
details.

To rule out NFS, do something like syslogging remotely (also UDP).

Define broken?
I put snd_ich_load="YES" into /boot/loader.conf, nothing in the kernel and it

Doesn't affect hw.acpi.cpu.cx_supported though, so that's the thing to check:
# sysctl hw.acpi.cpu.cx_supported; grep performance /etc/rc.conf|wc -l
hw.acpi.cpu.cx_supported: C1/1 C2/1 C3/85 C4/185

alright:
cp /usr/obj/usr/src/libexec/bootpd/bootpd /tmp/
strip /tmp/bootpd

If that works, rm -rf /usr/obj and redo. See if memory is still exhausted

Is the kernconf in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf still there and is it real file (not 
a symlink to a file on the hostmachine)?

Check any automake setup: DESTDIR is the install prefix. Of course one is free 
deviate from this GNU autotools naming convention.

However - IMO it doesn't serve any purpose during buildworld, as you expect to 
set the build location with MAKEOBJDIR (which also sounds like the location 
to place built files).

It does not only enable PAE but also rewrites a large portion of the vm 
infrastructure. If you can't get a panic, or core, then I would stick a ps 
and sysctl -a vm in a crontab */2 and see where it leads. The patch changes a 
lot of things in a lot of parts of the kernel, so even if I would understand 
most of it an educated guess without a kerneldump is nothing more than a 
guess.

The original poster had a production server running into trouble and asked 
about any known issues, so I told him how to get his server back in shape, so 
he can worry about the why part later, in a debug environment.

I have one old box to migrate this week, which is a non-critical box with a 
lot of diskspace, so I could do two seperate installs and compare notes.

Ok, I finally found the cause listed on the NEC site:
http://www.necd.de/faq_detail.php?id=573&frage=286

It seems Princo DVD-R is not supported and I need to wait for new firmware (or 
buy new media :).

That's right, it's an archive, but the shared counterparts are there too. So 
some app some where, prolly wants to use those.

Ok, here's the proper patch.
The single quotes are necessary, since make(1) doesn't understand numerical 
comparisons, so you need the variable as variable.

I don't see any harm in ${PORTSDIR} being available as it's value in 
Makefile.inc, so I didn't bother there.

Hope this helps you better :)
