I still think you're confusing Linux semantics with FreeBSD semantics.

On linux you would have:
eth0  Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:1E:C9:53:0B:61
   inet addr:10.0.0.1  Bcast:10.0.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0

   UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
   Interrupt:169 Memory:e600-e6011100


On FreeBSD you would have:

re0: flags=8843 metric 0 mtu 1500
 
options=8209b
 ether 54:04:a6:96:0c:1e
 inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255
 inet 10.0.1.1 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 10.0.1.255
 media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT )
 status: active

These are both the same thing.  Is there any particular reason that
you want multiple interfaces?  I can't see a use for it beyond "it's
what I'm used to seeing" unless they're VLAN interfaces.

Ian



Just a comment on the aliases vs virtual interfaces. Having used both 
aliases and virtual interfaces,  there is use cases which have always 
been easier under Linux than FreeBSD due to the virtual interface.


Once case is firewall rules that follow the device.
Let me explain.

Lets say under freebsd I setup two lans on the same card using aliases 
and a switch that is NOT vlan capable (ie home adsl modem, some other 
unmanaged switch).

ifconfig re0 172.16.1.1
ifconfig re0 alias 192.168.1.1

The firewall rules require the net to be used rather than an interface 
since the interface handles more than one lan.

ie (pf style):

pass in quick on re0 from 192.168.1.1/24 to any

Linux makes this easier:

ifconfig eth0 172.16.1.1
ifconfig eth0:1 192.168.1.1

pass in quick on eth0:1 from any to any

Whilst it's a minor difference, I can shift the device IP and my 
firewall rules automatically follow. This is just one case where having 
a virtual device make things easier vs aliases.


Cheers,
 Benjamin

Debugging 5.2 Beta

2003-11-26 Thread Benjamin Close
Hi All,
   Just grabbed the 5.2Beta mini iso. Sadly the machine I tried it on 
caused a panic during kernel boot.
A boot -v shows the last lines as (hand transcribed):

PNP0700: ading dma mask 0x4
pnpbios: handle 10 device ID PNP0700 (0007d041)


Fatal trap 9: general protection falut while in kernel mode

0/1, not luck.
Quick stats: P4 3G with HTT, 1024MB ram. MPTable: < Springdale-G >, 
pnpbios 15 devices,
FreeBSD 4.9 runs nicely on the box with the attached dmesg.
The box has a Promisc SATA Raid controller (which isn't detected under 
4.9) which I'd really like to get working hence the attempt at 5.2.
Any way to drop to DDB go get better traces? as 
debug.debugger_on_panic=1 & debug.witness_ddb=1 do nothing.

Cheers,
   Benjamin

4.8->Current & Depreciated files

2003-07-30 Thread Benjamin Close
Hi All,
I'm about to upgrade from FreeBSD 4.8 to Current (following the
instructions in UPDATING) and was just wondering if mergemaster removes
depreciated files between the two versions. Ie: /etc/rc.sendmail I believe
is now depreciated to one of the rcNG scripts. Does merge master handle
the deleting of this file or is there some other utility?

Thanks,
Benjamin

fxp0 failures on APCI/APM resume

2002-08-29 Thread Benjamin Close

Hi All,
The new apci & pci-pci code works wonderfully. However, I've got a 
problem with the fxp driver not reenabling the device correctly upon a 
resume from suspend. Details below - Note even when I try to put the 
laptop into suspend mode S2 which it doesn't support the problem occurs, 
the only solution is a reboot. Patches welcome.

Perhaps a note in UPDATING about how to remove the system perl and 
replace it with the port would be useful.

I'm using current from just after the KSE & libc_r fix. However it

Approach to integrate a driver into the kernel [winmodem]

2001-10-10 Thread Benjamin Close

Hi All, 
I've now been using the FreeBSD winmodem driver (Available at:
http://www.geocities.com/wtnbkysh/) under -current for a few weeks now
and haven't noticed a single glitch. Whilst I know this is a port of a
linux drivers and contains a binary only object from Lucent. Is there
any chance of getting this as part of the FreeBSD kernel? There is a lot
of people out in laptop land who would welcome this.

Recursing on a non-recursive lock

2001-07-26 Thread Benjamin Close

Hi All,
For a while now (July 12 first noticed) I've been experiencing a
intermittent panic on a non-recursive lock. Whilst I can grab the panic,
savecore panics again writing it. It seems to occur only under heavy disk
io and hence a make install of XFree86 causes the condition (not always at
the same place). Details below:

This always occurs sometime before the panic:

 2nd 0xc0b4cfb0 lockmgr interlock @ ../../../kern/kern_lock.c:239

Other useful stuff (tired of transcribing):

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault code = supervisor read, page not present
current process = 5756 (ld)

If this is not enough to help diagnose the problem, what else can I
provide (sadly I can't give symbols as this fault occured compiling the
kernel :(

The machine is a Dell Inspiron 8000 laptop (dmesg attached)
and the problem is getting more frequent with newer kernels.

Benjamin

Diagnosing a ata detection problem

2001-07-11 Thread Benjamin Close

Hi All,
FreeBSD -current hasn't correctly detected the CDROM drive in my laptop
for some time now. I've traced the problem down to the drive returning
an invalid ATAPI_LSB_MAGIC and ATAPI_MSB_MAGIC which is checked at line
704 in dev/ata/ata-all.c

It returns d0 d0, which I believe is an overflow indication. My work
around for this currently is comment out the if statement (as shown in
the attached patch). Whilst, it's not elegant, it works. 

Could someone suggest what steps I should take to find a correct
solution, I'm a newbie in the kernel world, but one willing to play,
break and fix things.

Cheers,
Benjamin

Re: FreeBSD 4.3 on Inspiron 8000 (Includes ATA comments)

I run FreeBSD current on an Inspiron 8000 and agree that not everything
works (yet).

To get your soundcard working put:

snd_maestro3_load="YES"

in /boot/loader.conf and reboot (or do kldload snd_maestro3 each boot)
It's a module due to GPL issues.

For X you need to use the native resolution of the LCD display:
So make sure the Monitor section in /etc/X11/XF86Config (assuming Xfree4)
looks like:

Section "Monitor"
Identifier   "Monitor0"
VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
ModelName"Monitor Model"
VertRefresh   40-110
HorizSync 28-90
ModeLine "1400x1050" 107.85 1400 1450 1500 1999 1050 1058 1070 1150
Gamma 1.0 1.0 0.94
EndSection

The gamma line is optional but I've found the display needs tweeking for
correct colour.

I've never used the cardbus support as I got the internal network
card/modem. The eepro works great, the winmodem *almost* works. Still
hangs the kernel on ATI3 requests.

As for acpi power support - if you use it don't shut the lid. It will
never return. apm works fine by itself.

I'm still working out the problem with the cd drive.
It seems that a couple of ATA requests are causing the drive to overflow
at detection time and hence the drive is not detected correctly.
I would have blamed the drive but interestingly enough it used to work in
Freebsd 4.0

For the IDE folk out there I've traced it down to: dev/ata/ata-all.c
684 lsb = ATA_INB(scp->r_io, ATA_CYL_LSB);
685 msb = ATA_INB(scp->r_io, ATA_CYL_MSB);
686 if (bootverbose)
687 ata_printf(scp, ATA_MASTER,
688"ATAPI probe %02x %02x\n", lsb, msb);
689 if (lsb == ATAPI_MAGIC_LSB && msb == ATAPI_MAGIC_MSB)
690 scp->devices |= ATA_ATAPI_MASTER;
691 }

lsb & msb both return 0xd0 and hence the magic never matches.
Modifying the delay just before (either up or down by 5) makes no
difference. Of course commenting out line 689 fixes the problem but it's
not elegant.

All in all it's supported reasonably well as far as laptops go.

To any kernel developers, I'd be happy to send a full boot -v and try
patches to resolve any issues mentioned above.

Cheers,

WinModem Support/Learning the kernel Internals

2001-04-30 Thread Benjamin Close

Hi All,
Is anyone looking into converting the Linux winmodem driver (
Lucent Technologies binary object file compiled together with the linux
kernel serial driver) into a freebsd device?

And another question, is there some documentation (other than the code) on
how to use things like timers for devices, the kernel debugger, other
useful kernel device development things :)

ICH2-M IDE controller

2001-03-24 Thread Benjamin Close

Hi All,
Is anyone looking at supporting the Intel ICH2-M IDE controller?
This controller is basically the same as the ICH2 controller except it has
extra powermanagment features as it's the for portable computers (hence
the M=mobile). I'm currently using the attached patch which runs
flawlessly on my laptop. However, I'm just an amature code hacker and
hence can't guarentee I haven't missed something between the chipsets.

The other question I have is why in ata-dma.c is there the fall through to
the ICH chipset? It seems to prevent any drive actually using ATA100/UDMA5
features.

Cheers,
