I wonder if we should add another option to use the ipv6 default gateway as nameserver and otherwise declare this a convenience option for a real world corner case most users won't run into (and not realy care about the actual resolvers used in that case).

Depends, I often will install sets I've built myself from a random server. But adding a server (preferably further down the list) that only answers for netbsd.org might be a option some people would prefer to use. Jonathan Kollasch
Re: CVS commit: src/distrib/utils/sysinst
If TNF can provide a open resolver on a stable IPv6 address for use by sysinst, that'd be great. Do we need only a resolver that answers for things in netbsd.org, to find mirrors, or really a full resolver? pgpkxsOKL8CZH.pgp Description: PGP signature

I see, but x86 pmap has been changed to use pool_cache(9) with pool_allocator_meta during vmlocking merge. http://cvsweb.NetBSD.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/sys/arch/x86/x86/pmap.c.diff?r1=1.2&r2=1.3 Is it enough to use pool(9) with pool_allocator_meta (which uses kmem_map), or should I revert that pool change and just make uvm_km_alloc() in old pmap_alloc_pv() use kmem_map instead of kernel_map? --- Izumi Tsutsui

Hm. What would you suggest? Is it better to revert this change? If it is only a matter of performance, I would prefer a slower driver with increased stability. This is just the boot loader, which reads from disks with PIO0. -- Frank Wille

This isn't really an ideal solution, I've have to fight membar instructions embedded into byteswapping accesses on ppc linux. Drivers may want to do several accesses that can be reordered before/after one that matters - so need greater control than enforcing specific membars. David -- David Laight: da...@l8s.co.uk
