9.0-BETA1 installer glithcies (i386)
Hello, Freebsd-current. Maybe, everything is reported already, but I think, that better I'll be second, that no-one notice this: Manual partitioning chosen (1) Installer offer me bunch of Partition schemes, but only MBR and BSD have sense. Why i386 installer offer me PC98 or PowerPC-based Apple partition schemes?! Why it offer GPT when system doesn't have UFI BIOS? I could be wrong about GPT, but APT and PC98-based variants should be disabled even in Manual mode, IMHO. (2) MBR Slice creation. Status line suggest freebsd-ufs and freebsd-swap as examples for Type field (which contains freebsd by default, but freebsd-ufs leads to Error: Invalid argument :) (3) Auto creates one big / partition + SWAP. It looks very not-BSD way (disk is only 8Gb, it is virtual machine). (4) Partition types again: IMHO, drop-down of filesystem types will be much better. It is not clear, is it possible to type zfs here, for example. (5) Partition creation dialog has button Options, but modify dialog doesn't. (6) Partition editor main panel: (a) Inconsistent sizes display. ada0 has size 8.0 GB but ada0s1 has size 8 GB. (b) No information about free size on device/slice. (7) Partition editor doesn't seen existing filesystems and doesn't warn about parititoning disks with existing filesystems. I have two (virtual) disks common for all my VMs -- with sources (one common disk per version) and with some scratch space (common for every my VM), FSes are created without any partitions or slices, directly on device nodes (ada1 and ada2). PArtition Editor doesn't have any sign or warning, that ada1 and ada2 contains valid FreeBSD filesystems. (8) After Exit from Partition Editor I expected some filesystem options selection (as here is no visible options on partition creation). NOPE. Also, it is impossible to set mount points for exisitng filesystems (see above about ada1 and ada2) (9) Lot of LORs on slice/partition creation and newfs. (10) Mistype password for Root for second type -- no message about it, simple New password: prompt. It is not obvious, what happens. (11) No way to mount NFS file systems :) -- // Black Lion AKA Lev Serebryakov l...@freebsd.org ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
Fwd: Re: Can *you* UFS snapshot a filesystem with 9.0-BETA1?
Le Thu, 18 Aug 2011 10:22:31 +0100, Hugo Silva h...@barafranca.com a écrit : Hello, I'm wondering. On a virtual machine (amd64 HVM+PV), it's crashing every time. Not sure if this is SNAFU, as I had never used ufs snapshots on freebsd before. After running mksnap_ffs, ssh stops working (a telnet session doesn't show the sshd banner). The ssh session where the command was run from stops responding, the webserver dies and xm console'ing from the dom0 works, but the VM is unresponsive (ie no login prompt on ENTER). Anyone else seeing the same? I've tried in a FreeBSD guest (9.0-beta1/i386) into VirtualBox and I see a LOR (or looks like a LOR), then the system is freezed. This is 100% reproductible.

One problem with this patch is that I don't know how to create a fixed table that matches what systems would already have been getting. (I got the first 6 entries by booting a GENERIC i386 kernel with a printf in vfs_init(), so I suspect those don't change much, although I'm not sure if ZFS will usually end up before or after them?) Do you guys know what ZFS gets assigned typically? (I realize that changes w.r.t. when it gets loaded, so the question also becomes do you know how it typically gets loaded so the table can have that vfc_typenum value assigned to it?) Maybe you could boot a system with a printf like: printf(%s, %d\n, vfc-vfc_name, vfc-vfc_typenum); just after vfc-vfc_typenum = maxvfsconf++; in vfs_init() and then look in dmesg after booting, to see what your tables look like?

Fixed table sounds like a good plan. Is there a reason for/against using a hash table for types that are not in the fixed table?

nfs lock failure/hang when using alias address for server from linux
Hi, I have an nfs server running 9-current. Everything works as far as nfs i/o operations are concerned. From another FreeBSD box, nfs locking works great to the server when addressed by both it's real ip address and it's aliased ip address. From a Linux system: Linux bb05d6403.unx.sas.com 2.6.32-131.0.15.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue May 10 15:42:40 EDT 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux nfs locking works fine if the mount goes to the real ip address of the server. If, however, the server is mounted by using it's aliased ip address, while nfs i/o operations work fine, file locking hangs. On the server, the processes: root 5995 0.0 0.0 14272 1920 ??
