jail(8) should not set login name for session

2006-03-20 Thread Frank Behrens
jail(8) sets a new login name for the session if the command is run 
as another user and this affects parent/sibling programs.

This error is described and a patch attached in
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=94730

Meanwhile an additional idea came into my mind and this is the reason 
for this mail:
Should jail(8) create a new session via setsid(2) if the 
argument -l is supplied?

BTW: The mentioned PR has Confidential set to
yes. I don't know where it comes from, may be I become mad. :-(

 Could you show your Makefile? I think you are missing something there - like

 Any idea how? Maybe manpage patch? You know, every one welcomed :)

I think it will be a small article, with skeleton of bus device driver

creating install media on usb drive

2006-03-20 Thread A.G. Russell IV
 Hi,
 
 I'm wanting to create a custom install on a 1gb USB thumb drive.
 
 I've done an install to the the USB thumb drive using the a option to use
 the entire disk, and then labeled one slice using entire disk, leaving no 
 space for swap, and installed the Minimal FreeBSD install.
 
 The drive boots and works beautifully, able to customize, and run.  I have
 already used it for recovery of a failed install.
 
 Next I removed the contents of the drive, cpio'ed the contents of the
 5.4-i386 iso disc1.  I then copied in the driver for my raid array, and
 modified boot/defaults/loader.conf to load the driver.  
 
 The drive boots and configures the system, but when I try to tell it were
 to install from, I can't seem to be able to tell sysinstall where the 
 install media is.  I've tried setting the install to filesystem and /
 and no media is found.
 
 I've googled, and searched the freebsd mailing archives.
 
 Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
 
 A.G.

It seems to me that you might have the problem where the thumbdrive shows up
as da0 when you boot it by itself and dawhatever when the raid array is
around.  You've got a few ways to fix this.

The old way would be to use hints to force the thumbdrive to be da0.

The new way would be to create your filesystems with the '-L' argument to
newfs and have 'geom_label' load in loader.conf.  This will allow you to
mount /dev/ufs/labelname as root rather than da0s1a

repeatedly opening the same .so(s) is slow?

2006-03-20 Thread Eric Schuele

Hello,

Sorry if the subject is misleading, not sure how to label this one.

I have a port (gnucash) which takes 3-4 minutes to open on a 2.6GHz 
machine.  It used to take 15-20 seconds till all of the libtool changes.


I have no idea if the symptom is related to libtool or not.  Others have 
said it is not... but that's when the problems began, just for 
reference.  FWIW, when I had trouble due to libtool, I simply formatted 
my machine, reinstalled OS and all ports.  So this issue is occurring on 
a 'clean' machine.


But here is what I have found, and it looks odd to me.

Using truss, I can see that gnucash/guile is trying to open a dozen or 
two files, repeatedly.  It fails attempting to open it the first few 
times everytime it tries to access it, because it is traversing the 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH:


open(/lib/libglib-12.la,0x0,0666)  ERR#2 'No such file or 
directory'
open(/usr/lib/libglib-12.la,0x0,0666)  ERR#2 'No such file or 
directory'
open(/usr/local/lib/libglib-12.la,0x0,0666)ERR#2 'No such file or 
directory'
open(/usr/X11R6/lib/gnucash/libglib-12.la,0x0,0666) ERR#2 'No such 
file or directory'
open(/usr/X11R6/lib/libglib-12.la,0x0,0666)ERR#2 'No such file or 
directory'
open(/usr/X11R6/lib/gnucash/libglib-12.la,0x0,0666) ERR#2 'No such 
file or directory'

open(/lib/libglib-12.la,0x0,0666)  ERR#2 'No such file or

open(/usr/lib/libglib-12.la,0x0,0666)  ERR#2 'No such file or 
directory'
open(/usr/local/lib/libglib-12.la,0x0,0666)ERR#2 'No such file or 
directory'

file or directory'
open(/usr/X11R6/lib/libglib-12.la,0x0,0666)ERR#2 'No such file or 
directory'
open(/usr/X11R6/lib/gnucash/libglib-12.la,0x0,0666) ERR#2 'No such 
file or directory'
open(/usr/local/lib/libglib-12.la,0x0,0666)ERR#2 'No such file or 
directory'
open(/lib/libglib-12.la,0x0,0666)  ERR#2 'No such file or 
directory'
open(/usr/lib/libglib-12.la,0x0,0666)  ERR#2 'No such file or 
directory'
open(libglib-12.la,0x0,0666)   ERR#2 'No such file or 
directory'
access(/lib/libglib-12.so,4)   ERR#2 'No such file or 
directory'
access(/usr/lib/libglib-12.so,4)   ERR#2 'No such file or 
directory'

access(/usr/local/lib/libglib-12.so,4) = 0 (0x0)

Now I said a dozen or two files repeatedly.  It is 12-20 files maybe... 
but it is attempting to open them *hundreds of thousands of times*!  It 
goes on and on and on...


I am assuming this is what is causing the long startup time.  So I have 
been working towards helping it find the right files the first time 
around.  I have manipulated the gnucash environments LD_LIBRARY_PATH a 
bit and helped some... but it is only a drop in the bucket.  I have 
thought of placing symlinks in the folder(s) where it first looks for 
any given file, to make sure it finds the file... but this does not seem 
quite right either.


What I'm wondering is what is the lists opinion on how to best fix 
this type of a problem.  Is this even the cause of my long startup?


I have spoken with one or two of the gnucash devs, they seem to think 
this is unique to FreeBSD, meaning they have not seen this problem on 
any other platform.  They said it might have to do with how FreeBSD 
handles how files are opened up many times recursively!?


If there is a more appropriate list, please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

   A possible (I'm sure not the best) solution I appended as attachment. 
   
  I'm inclined to add this feature, possibly with an option to turn it
  off.  It seems like a useful default and it's what other OSes do.  I
  don't believe the objection above has much relevance since the actual
  update if any is only performed if the DHCP server is configured to make
  one.  Incorrect DHCP packets sent by DHCP servers are my problem.  Side
  effects caused by misconfiguration is not.
 
 Yes, this is my intention. The dhcp server gets from a client always 
 the MAC address and - with my proposal - the clients host name as 
 additional information. The decision what to make with this 
 information has to make the dhcp server (administrator). It can make 
 dynamic DNS updates or not.

Meanwhile I made a short investigation about other systems and 
created a PR. All info can you read at
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=94743

It would give me great pleasure, if somebody could improve our dhcp 
client.

IAL COMPETION ERROR on hptmv ( fixed )

2006-03-20 Thread Steven Hartland

After working with the dev's at Highpoint they have found fixed
the bug where you get the following error:
kernel: IAL: COMPLETION ERROR, adapter 0, channel 2, flags=104
kernel: ATA regs: error 10, sector count 1, LBA low ff, LBA mid ff, LBA high 
ff, device 4f, status 51

The issue was down to the Seagate drive firmware when accessing
the 1024^3 byte. Previously the driver was using 28bit addressing for this
but it was being rejected by the ST3400832AS disks. This has now been
changed so that if the device can use 48bit addressing it is always used.

I'm sure highpoint will be releasing this driver update shortly but in
the mean time if anyone needs it contact me and I'll mail it you.

FWIW:
I spoke with some folks on a gnucash channel.  They ran a trace for me 
on gnucash, and it only attempted to load files 17 times or so.  Each 
time it loaded a file it hung onto it.  Sounds like the 'close' is not 
releasing the library like it does on fbsd.  Which is how it 'should' work.

DRM kernel module for unichrome ?

Hi everybody,

I am trying to get DRI to work on a VIA C3 motherboard.
Background: running mplayer freezes X. (just X, I can ssh and reboot the
box)
Running mplayer -vo x11  (instead of the default that uses Xv extension)
works, but uses much CPU.
I understand that for Xv, XVmc to work, DRI must be enabled. However,
although the port graphics/dri includes a unichrome_dri.so, I do not see
the corresponding drm kernel module in /boot/loader. (I would assume it
would be unichrome.ko)

The question is then, is anybody working on this module ? How hard is it
to port the linux one over to FreeBSD ? Who owns the current drm
kernel modules and how can I assist in porting the unichrome drm module ?

 OK.  How about a merge?

 I'd really like to see this in 6-STABLE.

 just a 'me too'. I've been running with the patch(under 6.1) and it's 
 definitely
 better than the panics with the unpatched version. in other words,
 IMHO, it does not break anything, and it actualy fixes somethings.

 Any ETA to when we can see this merged into 6.1 and 5.5?

This patchset doesn't apply in 5.x branch. The unionfs code of 5.x is
different and afaik is working quite well (we used it on freesbie 1.1
without problems).

Cheers,

I get the same results.  And gnucash seems to run fine.

My reading of the code says that this will be missing the scheme-specific
ltdl hooks so loading a shared library from guile should fail.

being executed during the gnucash startup.  It would be interesting to
get a truss of gnuash starting on another OS (unfortunately, I don't
have access to any Linux systems) and/or some other guile applications.

hmm... I have a Gentoo system somewhere.  It was just an experiment.  No 
idea what shape its in.  But maybe I can try installing gnucash on it.

I had a try at building gnucash on a Solaris system today but ran into
portability problems - Guppi includes gcc extensions (I was using
Forte), one of the bits of gnome didn't include gettext correctly (so
it wouldn't link) and something (I don't remember what) assumes that
glade is installed but doesn't check for it in the configure stage.
