Re: Compaq Proliant 2500 - freebsd 5.1 install problems

2003-11-07 Thread Tom

  Sounds very similar to a problem that I have with FreeBSD 5.1.  As soon
as /stand/sysinstall is started, the display adaptor turns off!  This is
on a Dell Poweredge 6350 with 4xXeon 550s.  I never did get FreeBSD 5.x
working on any of the 6350s that I have, but 4.8 works perfectly.

 The last info I get is /stand/sysinstall running as init on vty0 and it
 stops. It dont do anything more.
 FreeBSD 4.8(and 4.9 i guess, havent tried yet) works.

 Any sollution?
 Btw, I have set the OS to be 'Other' in BIOS.

SMP hang at boot on Compaq Proliant ML370

2003-01-15 Thread Nicolas Kowalski

Hello.

On a brand new Compaq Proliant ML370, I installed FreeBSD 5.0RC2,
without any problems. It works very well when using only one CPU.

To take advantage of the two available CPUs, I compiled a new kernel
with the two necessary SMP options, installed it, then restarted the
server, but it hangs when booting the new kernel, just after the
following line has been displayed :

APIC_IO: testing 8254 interrupt delivery.

Reading some archives tells me this message appears just before the
others CPUs are started, so I suppose this is the problem.

The server is configured for Unixware7, as told in the archives.

Has anybody an idea ?
Thanks.

I had a Compaq visit my lab recently.  Unless the aic driver were
removed from the kernel (disabling it might have worked too) it
would screw up the floppy driver.

This sounds like black magic, but the explanation is that the aic
driver has a very intrusive probe routine which sticks random bytes
into whatever I/O locations it feels like and this appearantly is
not liked by certain machines.

Compaqs with all their bells and whistles could be particular
sensitive to this, so try to disable the aic driver and see
if it helps.

 I tried this. Now there is only the ahc driver (the only one needed)
 compiled in the kernel but this does not help, the server still

Is the ML370 a new box?  I've heard rumors recently that one of the
recent Compaq boxes effectively doesn't generate clock interrupts
in SMP mode and there isn't a workaround for that at the moment.

I think it had something to do more with the RTC interrupt not being
routed to the I/O APIC and FreeBSD currently can only handle the ISA
timer interrupt being only rounted to the 8259A PICs.  Thus, FreeBSD
hangs because it doesn't get any interrupts from the RTC via the I/O
APIC.  I couldn't remmeber the exact details earlier hence the vagueness
of my message.

 of my message.

The same problem happens with a newer DL380 that we have here.  G3 I think,
but I can never keep track of all the new toys. :-)

Backgrounder:  There are two sources of clock in i386 systems.  The 8254
timer and the RTC (real time clock).  FreeBSD uses both.  Linux and Windows
use the 8254 primarily, but Linux can be configured to use the RTC as well
via the /dev/ rtc device and a couple of ioctl() calls.  Linux normally
wouldn't notice if the RTC device wasn't generating interrupts.  vmware
might though as it uses /dev/rtc.

In uniprocessor mode, both of these are used via the 8259 interrupt
controller (PIC).  But in SMP mode, neither the 8254 or RTC originated
interrupts show up on the APIC on their designated interrupt inputs.  I
really do not know why.  From what I have seen of the chipset specs
(Serverworks CSB5 - Champion South Bridge 5), the RTC interrupts are
delivered to a single piece of silicon via serial interrupt protocol along
with the floppy controller and COM ports etc.  It is supposedly an
all-or-nothing deal.  Meanwhile the 8254, 8259 and IO APIC are all on the
same silicon.  There shouldn't be anything that can't be connected.

So all I can think of is a hardware quirk in the CSB5 (Older rev 1.x in the
system I was playing with that isn't working, not CSB5 v2.0), a BIOS
programming issue (not setting up the interrupt routing correctly), or
a bug in FreeBSD.  I'm 99.9% convinced that it is not the latter.  I've
looked at register dumps of the CSB5 and I can't see anything obvious
that is wrong there. :-(

I have a brutal workaround (use a single 8254 clock and simulate the RTC
clock), but it breaks some things (eg: high res profiling).  I really dont
like it, and I'm working on a different possibility as well (keep the 8259

   This sounds like black magic, but the explanation is that the aic 
   driver has a very intrusive probe routine which sticks 
  random bytes 
   into whatever I/O locations it feels like and this 
  appearantly is not 
   liked by certain machines.
  
   Compaqs with all their bells and whistles could be particular 
   sensitive to this, so try to disable the aic driver and see if it 
   helps.
   
   I tried this. Now there is only the ahc driver (the only 
  one needed) 
   compiled in the kernel but this does not help, the server 
  still hangs. 
   I also removed the ata driver, without success. :-(
  
  Is the ML370 a new box?  I've heard rumors recently that one 
  of the recent Compaq boxes effectively doesn't generate clock 
  interrupts in SMP mode and there isn't a workaround for that 
  at the moment.

Thanks for the info.  I've found a ML370 G3 and will look into this
today or tommorrow.

I'll be in touch.

Thanks,
John

  I think it had something to do more with the RTC interrupt 
 not being 
  routed to the I/O APIC and FreeBSD currently can only 
 handle the ISA 
  timer interrupt being only rounted to the 8259A PICs.  
 Thus, FreeBSD 
  hangs because it doesn't get any interrupts from the RTC 
 via the I/O 
  APIC.  I couldn't remmeber the exact details earlier hence the 
  vagueness of my message.
 
 The same problem happens with a newer DL380 that we have 
 here.  G3 I think, but I can never keep track of all the new toys. :-)

 Which Proliant model are you talking about?
 
  i've tried 4.0, 4.1, and -current, and the kernel panics on me with

 We're running 3.4-STABLE on a Proliant 3000 here, and it's working great.
 Mind you, this has a Symbios 875 based controller, not 895a as in your
 case.

Proliant 3000 with 4.1-STABLE here, working great too.

it's a ML330.  recompiling the kernel without sym support seems to make
it boot (i wasnt using the scsi controller anyway).

which is an interesting data point, actually:  there were no scsi
devices plugged into the controller.

in any event, im up and running.  this may now serve as a data point for
whomever is maintaining the sym driver...
