The first step would be a port of bonsai to FreeBSD.  One major
obstacle to its use would be the following comment:
"Performance - Bonsai can be, under the right circumstances,
 egregiously slow. In scenarios like Mozilla.org, which have a lot of
 checkins and a lot of code, the right conditions can happen a
 lot. Even worse, the things that make Bonsai go slow will also cause
 your server load to go sky high and make everything else go slow."

The FreeBSD codebase is more than an order of magnitude larger than
Mozilla and I suspect there are significantly more developers and
commits.  The above comment suggests it would be unusably slow.

It might be easier to hook it into a local CVS repository and
the cvs-all mailing list.

about gcc code assembly

2005-10-10 Thread rookie
Hi,
compiling something like:

#include 

static int a;

void f() { printf("%d\n", a); }

with:
> gcc -S -o trial.S trial.c

We got:

[snip]
...
.local a
.comm a, 4, 4
.ident "GCC: (GNU) 3.4.2 [FreeBSD] 20040728"


But using .lcomm would not be better? (.lcomm a, 4)

cheers,
Attilio

We have a machine running with those patches applied. We need to do some
other tests on it today, but tonight we will run our threaded applications
that trigger the kern_proc problem in top. We should have results tomorrow
morning.

Bonsai-style interface (cvs change history) for FreeBSD CVS?

2005-10-10 Thread Antony Mawer

Hi,

I thought this might be the most appropriate place to raise this - I was 
wondering whether or not there was any chance of a Bonsai 
(http://www.mozilla.org/projects/bonsai/) interface to the FreeBSD CVS 
repository. I was going to have a look at doing this locally and trying 
to hook it into CVSup (normally it ties into the CVS server to track 
commits as they are made), but if it were available as a public resource 
then I would imagine this would be to benefit of others as well.


Is there any possibility and/or interest in the FreeBSD project setting 
up an interface? Is there something similar already out there? I know 
the commit mailing lists, but have in the past found Bonsai a more 
capable tool for monitoring/locating commits and determining how large 
and how wide-reaching the changes were.


If this is the wrong list, then please redirect this message as 
appropriate. Please CC me in any responses as I am not subscribed to 
this list.


Regards
Antony

Agreed.  sys.mk is somewhere between make(1) and make.conf(5), so
__MAKE_CONF belongs to both until we decide some day we need manpages
for our *.mk files.  And make.conf(5) contains an incorrect statement
that /etc/make.conf applies to system builds only.  I'll fix this.
