Re: How to invalidate NFS read cache?

The fstab entry I use is: server:/Volume /local/dir nfs bg,rw,intr,-T,-r32768,-w16384 0 0 The server runs on Mac OSX 10.5. In the meantime, I had the chance to examine a failure a little bit closer. As far as I can see in the moment a file modified on a Linux NFS client gets a new modification time on the NFS server but the FreeBSD client still sees the old timestamp. This obviously happens sporadically only under some circumstances I do not know further. I'll do some further testing the next days. Could you imagine a kind of directory or metadata caching on FreeBSD NFS clients that may cause this behaviour? I forgot to mention one detail: File modification happens with emacs; thus the modified file is indeed a new one with a new inode number whereas the old version keeps its inode and gets renamed.

Re: Memory leak on thread removal

Hi,
The code below is compiled with -fopenmp and run on FreeBSD6/7 (i386, amd64):
#include omp.h
#include unistd.h
int n = 4, m = 2;
int main () {
for (;;) {
int i;
//sleep(2);
#pragma omp parallel for num_threads(m)
for(i = 0; i 1; i++) {}
//sleep(2);
#pragma omp parallel for num_threads(n)
for(i = 0; i 1; i++) {}
}
return 0;
}
During the run the program's virtual memory usage constantly grows. The growth
is observed only when n != m. When running the program with uncommented
sleep() and observing the number of threads with 'top -H' I see in turn 2 or 4
threads. So it looks like memory leak when thread is removed. Should I fill
PR?
I can confirm this. I briefly looked through the libgomp code but
didn't see the leak. Anybody knows good tools how to investigate this?

Re: FreeBSD jobs
Hi Matt, Several suckers have already enquired to that firm. =A0Hope we might get some Free labour to donate time to Freebsd, Not Stock holders ! Hi Julian, Internships are an accepted way for a high school or university In America. America imported unpaid apprenticeships indentured servitude (time limited slavery) from Europe/Britain centuries ago. Britain dumped both Long since. (Germany still has some interns eg in theatre, last described as a rip off). Condolences that the Land of the free retains medieval European intern practice. it is clearly stated that it is a non-paid internship in the post. Not clear at start. The word intern may be clear warning of No Money in American dialect, but to British eyes, it was a strange word out of context ignored. ( Monika Lewinsky news first brought the quaint old fashioned American word concept of Intern back across the Atlantic, but in English, Intern just means certain some workers ). Posting near end had: San Francisco Posting in final line had: This is an unpaid position! Posting should have started USA/ San Francisco - Unpaid job to efficiently enable global readership of jobs@ to delete unread, but American-centric censors of global jobs@ messed up as often, I imagine that there would be some interested students or unemployed people that would love to work with Alfred on a project at Juniper a few hours a week in their spare time, for free. http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-jobs/2009-May/000652.html more than 2 hours/day That's 1/4 or more of a full time job - _Unpaid_ ! No offer of money, food, transport, training courses, books, hardware to keep. It undermines labour rates for all BSD workers. The j...@freebsd.org censors blocked my polite post people instead work free for freebsd.org It will look great on a resume, they will probably learn some valuable skills, and perhaps parlay it into a full-time, paid position. Managers will read: This keen sucker can be kept at Low rates for a Long time. Better that FreeBSD people work free Not for scrounging commercial firms share holder profit, but for charity eg: FreeBSD development projects systems admin (eg send-pr base, (parlay into a job requiring corporate support/ trouble ticket experience ), FSF, Xorg, Greenpeace, computer automating a local library, FreeBSD training lectures to schools, fixing BSD install etc for blind / half blind etc. Cheers, Julian -- Julian Stacey: BSDUnixLinux C Prog Admin SysEng Consult Munich www.berklix.com Mail plain ASCII text.

Hope we might get some Free labour to donate time to Freebsd, Not Stock holders ! Hi Julian, Internships are an accepted way for a high school or university student (and nowadays some post grad students and others) to gain a bit of experience in their field before joining the work force or perhaps while switching careers. At my company, we've filled several full-time positions with people that were interns first. It's just a way to fill a part-time, sometimes non-paid job, at a company where there isn't an official requisition for that particular position. Nobody is forcing anybody to take the internship and it is clearly stated that it is a non-paid internship in the post. I imagine that there would be some interested students or unemployed people that would love to work with Alfred on a project at Juniper a few hours a week in their spare time, for free. It will look great on a resume, they will probably learn some valuable skills, and perhaps parlay it into a full-time, paid position. best, -matt Thanks Matt, this is my only intention. A few of the candidates I've spoken too are very excited to get something on their resume with a commercial entity and there is the hope that I may be able to hire one on them in the future. I've also promised the candidates that they will have access to some amazing resources within Juniper if (I can manage it) and at the very least I can mentor them on any FreeBSD endeavors they take on for the other non-2 hours per-day they would be working for me. While I would love to see more students working on FreeBSD, the fact of the matter is that some students already have worked on FreeBSD and would like commercial experience of worked on a team in an office environment that is challenging to mimic in our (FreeBSD's) distributed ways. At the end of the day, what FreeBSD-jobs is supposed to be is a place where jobs can be posted and found that will enable a FreeBSD fan to find suitable employment opportunities for a career, or to advance their career. The reason for moderation of FreeBSD-jobs is to prevent people such as Julian turning a well intentioned message into a thread of flames because he's gone imbalanced due to lack of coffee some morning. Effectively it's been a pretty swell system, FreeBSD-jobs has 0 spam (except to the poor moderators) and also insulated job seekers and posters from the typical hecklers who feel the need for extremely abusive emails due to some real or perceived mistake by the recruiter or job-seeker. I honestly feel that we've even saved plenty of people embarrassment by blocking or bouncing messages that they may have sent in haste to freebsd-jobs that after cooling off realized the Internet is forever, why in g-d's name did I send something so mean with my name on it?!?. It's a shame it doesn't work for cross-list posts. I'm proud to be one of the moderators on FreeBSD-jobs, but I do admit most of the work is done by the other moderators. Thanks again Matt. I'm going to have to pick your brain later about how to deal with interns, care, feeding, hats? :) And Julian, chill out, I still cringe from embarrassment when someone drags out some old email _I_ sent with close to the same tone as the ones I've been seeing from you.

You'r right on adults free choice, I'll drop that rather than drift. What I was trying to illustrate is what jobs@ censors pass block. - jobs@ is censored, so jobs@ censors performance cant be discussed on j...@. - Those that pushed to censor jobs@ some years ago ( succesors?) are not worth having, j...@freebsd would be better without them. - Censors of jobs@ do not have the courage to announce on footer or header of jobs@ that they censor j...@freebsd. - Most don't know j...@freebsd Is censored.
