RE: What do people think of maybe using the sourceforge software?
It's my opinion that there's no need for more "polish." Currently what we have, CVS and the CVSWeb HTTP front-end, seem perfectly adequate to me. Well, that depends if sourceforge has more intelligent bug query methods than simple keyword searches. If you can only keyword search, the current PR database might be just as good. If sourceforge will allow me to search in a more intelligent way, it may be worth the effort. There's a lot of information in the PR database. How best to exploit that? Another point: if sourceforce is being actively maintained and used, perhaps you may want to have it for that. Is FreeBSD's bug database code being used in other projects? Is development going on on it?

Modem stuff?
Hi all, We have some FreeBSD based terminal servers with 32 modems each. How can deny +++ATH0 attacks to our Dial-Up clients? I have been already set S2=127(disable escape character) on servers modems, but clients modems also need to set S2 register. I try to set remote modems with ping containing pattern "+++ATS2=127WO1\r", in many times successfully, but any of modems can not be set properly. It is possible to filter IP packets containing patterns like +++ATH0 or any other way to set S2 register remotely? Thanks in advance Regards -- Krassimir Slavchev Bulinfo Ltd.

Re: mmap cdev function in device drivers

A good example to look at is the pci/xrpu.c file, that driver
barely does anything but a mmap.

Hey, thanks. That's a great idea. I'll check that out. I've been leafing through
the rather monolithic meteor, brooktree, and even the PCI pcm code.

Hi,
Just trying to take some of the aforementioned "magic" out of i386_btop
/ vtop :-)
return( atop(vtophys(bktr-bigbuf) + offset) );
atop (I assume) stands for "address to page" (given a pointer, give the
number of the page it is in)
vtophys is "virtual to physical". (given a pointer in a virtual address
space, find out the physical address of the backing memory.)
My understanding is that mmap(2) will allocate a portion of the calling
process's address space, and for each page it needs to map, will call
the device's mmap function, giving it the calculated offset (and the
protection attributes).
The device's mmap returns the index of the physical page of the memory
to be inserted under the virtual addresses the process sees.
simplified_mmap_syscall_for_device(dev_t device, size_t len, off_t
offset)
{
caddr_t ptr = alloc_address_space(len);
assert(ptr % PAGESIZE == 0);
while (len) {
pageno = device-mmap(offset); /* Call device's mmap */
map_address_to_page(ptr, pageno);
len -= PAGESIZE;
offset += PAGESIZE;
ptr += PAGESIZE;
}
}
So, the call above is returning the page number (of the physical address
(of bktr-bigbuf)).
Of course, My ignorance will probably be corrected in due course!

Re: [OT] Finding people with GSM phones (was Re: GPS heads up )
Because the a large percentage (majority?) of cell phones are used in locations where GPS can't be used effectively (think any big city inside of a car), Qualcomm is not adding GPS chipsets into their phones. According to my friend, the solutions they have designed work for both the existing analog and digital phones being used today, and are much better than the 100m accuracy marks required by law (as stated before, the number 25m jumps to mind). As long as you have multiple towers in reach. Sure. This limitation certainly applies to analog coverage, which will probably be pretty much deprecated by 2003, and with digital phones at the extreme edge of coverage. So, they get higher accuracy solutions that don't require changes to their phones, thus driving up costs. (Although it does require changes to the cell towers, but that's a much cheaper alternative since there are fewer of them *PLUS* it works with old phones, making it *very* attractive to the government.) I don't think the government ever stops to consider the cost of the idiotic requirements they levy on people. The phrase we're groping for here is "unfunded mandate." Ahh, but like my friends at Qualcomm postulated, we can't completely comply with the order using GPS (phones outside of cell coverage, phones just turned on, etc...), so we're not putting GPS chipsets on the phone, since the amount of failures will be far less with the existing solution than they would be with a GPS solution. We're damned in we do, and we're damned if we don't, but at least the former way we'll lose less money. :) Nate To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message

Re: Netfinity 5600 patches
I still have uncommitted patches that add support for the Netfinity 5600's host-to-PCI bridge. They're not perfect, but they work fine. URL:http://www.freebsd.org/~des/software/ As far as I can see, these patches aren't needed for 4.0-STABLE. I have a 4.0-STABLE system here with no kernel patches, and it seems to be working fine. Note that there is already support for the RCC chipsets in /sys/i386/isa/pcibus.c. See attached boot messages. For 3.x, isn't Andrew Gallatin's patch more general? See http://docs.FreeBSD.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=60828+0+archive/2000/freebsd-smp/2423.freebsd-smp However, if anybody can tell me why there seems to be quite a bit of overlap between nexus_pcib_is_host_bridge (/sys/i386/isa/pcibus.c) and chip_match (/sys/pci/pcisupport.c), I'd be happy.

PR's and patches
I imagine this sounds stupid, but... Awhile ago I submitted a PR with a patch in it. Today I was thinking that I would clean it up, and since I didn't keep a copy of the earlier patch I thought I would get it from the PR. I used 'lynx' to download the PR, and it seemed to come down correctly (tab-characters where I'd expect them, etc), but the patch did not apply. Turned out that because I was going thru a web interface, things like '', '', and '' were changed to html-safe equivalents. Good for HTML, bad for C.

Your tape drive has a quirk but no entry yet in the kernel quirk table, (or you simply use non-default settings for your backups for some good reason), and you need to manually set the block size, density, or some such before you can read back your backup.
