kernel dynamic references
Hi, I'm new to Freebsd and interested in system programming. So I'have picked up a task from the project ideas list to start with. (part of) the subject is : This task is to define and implement a general mechanism for tracking these references and use them in handling module unload requests. So, to do that, I'have added an int dynrefs in struct module (kern_module.c), and functions to increase or decrease this count (module_add/remove_dynrefs(const char * modname) and module_updatedynrefs(const char * modname, int action) ) in kern_module.c. To avoid unload of a module which has a dynrefs count != 0 , I have modified module_unload(), so that unload is process only if dynrefs=0 or flag=LINKER_UNLOAD_FORCE. module_unload(module_t mod, int flags) { int error; - error = MOD_EVENT(mod, MOD_QUIESCE); + MOD_SLOCK; + (mod-dynrefs == 0) ? (error = MOD_EVENT(mod, MOD_QUIESCE)) : (error = EPERM); + MOD_SUNLOCK; I have compiled and tested. with a 6-2 RELEASE. For the test I'have used two dummy module, one adding a dynrefs on the other.

Options for boot program
My way of operating is to multi-task almost all the time. As such, while working on one task, if another task on which I am also working (but had to pause in it because some information or equipment that the task needed wasn't available) of higher priority suddenly became available/operable, then I would want to know about this so that I could switch to the higher priority task. Thus I want that the computer should tell me that it needs input for one of its tasks, or that some task is showing output that I may want to see (this usually means error messages rather than standard output). The best way for the computer to tell me these things (i.e., to call my attention to itself) is by sound (because the ear detects from all around, while the eye detects only from in front of itself [so I would have to be looking at the screen]). Thus I can do other things and be called back to the computer as needed. Hence I want the boot program to sound a bell (possibly several times with a short interval to wait between successive times, and proceed immediately when I respond [and not wait for a set # of bells to be sounded]) if it is waiting for input (say, as to which slice to boot), and the amount of time (in seconds) that it waits for that input, and if it doesn't get any input before this time period expires, it boots the current default slice. I want to set the length of this time period (to wait before booting the current default slice). I realize that other users of the boot program may want it to behave differently than I do. Consequently, each user should be able to tell the boot program how he wants it to behave regarding these matters, and other matters that some user may be able to describe. A programmer of the boot program should not impose his preferences on the users of the boot program, but code in a way that allows them to get their preferred operation from the boot program. This can't be easily/safely done by options in the call of the boot program because the boot program isn't called (as we are familiar with it). It is read into RAM from the boot sector and then control is transferred to it, and all this is done by the BIOS or a small program built into the hardware of a computer. One way to make the boot program aware of a user's preferences is to store these preferences (options) in the boot sector, say the last byte or two of that sector. That way, this data will not have a chance of being in the midst of code. The setting of these bytes can be done as part of the installation of the boot program, and/or have a special patch program that patches just this area (even after installation so if the owner wants to change his options after installation, he can easily do so). I would like to suggest some minor changes to the boot program for FreeBSD , mainly in the area of options that the user can set when installing it. Hopefully the space available for the boot program will be big enough to allow these changes. By the way, is there more space available (e.g., more sectors on the platter/cylinder) for the boot program? Where can one get the code for the boot? Also, how much space is available for the boot code? Also, can one add more slices (so there are more than 4) to the system, and have ways of booting them. Another thing that could be done is to introduce logical slice (the term has been used before), say by allowing more than 8 partitions per slice and allowing the user to be able to specify which set of 5 to mount (and these 5 form a logical slice). ___ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The 'ln -s' command
I tried the 'ln -s' command in bothe 4.34.7 in a situation where it should fail and it did, but it still had a return/exit code of 0 , I think it should have been nonzero. I tried 'ln -s a b' where the file b existed (and was a directory) and I wanted to create the file named a also pointing to it. The correct form was 'ln -s b a'.

Problems with FreeBSD 6.0
I tried out FreeBSD 6.0 (sorry, I copied just part or uname -a and I got something like LINUX 2.4.2 FreeBSD 6.0 - Release #0: Nov 3 09:36:13 UTC 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/LINUX) and was surprised to find that things in the echo command didn't work. When I typed echoa\tb I got a\tb , no tab replacing the \t Same for \n. When I tried to type echotabb where tab stands for hitting the tab key, when I hit tab the first time, nothing happened, when I hit it immediately afterward, I got an ls -A listing. I did manage to get a tab into the string by typing something else there in place of tab and then editting the command with r (the replace function) to put a tab in it. When I hit tab similarly immediately after the command prompt I got a question asking if I wanted to see the 424 (or was it 242 ?) possibilities and the computer responded immediately after a 'y' or 'n' key was hit. How could this happen? The echo command (and builtin , I tried both [and I presume that echo by itself invokes the builtin ]) should be standard? ___ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(no subject)
I discovered the user operator in UNIX , found it in the book Essential System Administration by AEleen Frisch, and it has features that I would like to use. The book says (on page 131) that this user exists on some BSD systems and it is used for back-ups and such. It is like superuser ( root ) in that it can access any file regardless of the permission bits, but it operates readonly, it cannot modify unless the permission bits allow it to do so. I checked /etc/passwd and found that operator is a user (in FreeBSD 4.3 ). When I tried it out, I found some directories that operator couldn't enter and checked a few of those directories and found that they gave absolutely no access to 'other' users, explaining why operator couldn't enter those directories. I feel that this is an error since it doesn't allow operator to do its stated task. Similarly, operator cannot access plain files unless the permission bits allow it to do so. Please implement this user as the book lists it, this will give the FreeBSD community a useful capability. We could check LINUX and see if they have have it properly implemented; if so we could copy it making the necessary changes, an easier task. uname -a for my system gives: FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE #0: Sat Apr 21 10:54:49 GMT 2001 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC i386 ___ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

A problem with poll
Hello, I'm using a pipe to communicate between threads in the same process. In fact, I've a thread waiting (using poll) for data available on some set of file descriptors. From time to time I need to interrupt the poll call in order to add a new file descriptor. I do this with the pipe. I add p[0] to the poll set and I write to p[1] when I want to interrupt the poll call. The problem is that poll returns as expected, but the read on the file descriptor blocks. Before the poll call, I set events flags to POLLIN | POLLPRI. When poll returns, events is set to POLLIN [ POLLPRI, and revents is 0. Value returned by poll is the good number of file descriptors ready. What I'm doing wrong ?

patchlevels and FreeBSD source
Hi all, Presently I install my servers using a automated pxeboot method. The NFS image I choose is a copy of the freebsd 4.8-RELEASE cdrom. Post install I cvsup the plain 4.8-RELEASE server to RELENG_4_8 (taking the patchlevel to 4.8-RELEASE-p15 for example) and then build world. The cvsup/buildworld takes a long time. These steps are also difficult to automate. My question is: Is it possible that I update my cdrom image to the to 4.8-RELEASE-p15 before install ? In other words, are the patches that released as source diffs also available as downloadable cd images? If the answer is no, then can I patch the cdrom image myself or create a new PATCHED cd image that I can then use for my NFS installs ? Thanks for your replies.

SimpleTech USB HDD driver
I just bought a 120GB SimpleTech USB harddrive and I want to use it with FreeBSD 4.8 (the HDD is part number STI-U2F35/120). AFAIK, 4.8 doesn't support USB HDDs. Why is this? If it is possible to write the drivers for this, I've got a couple of questions: Who does the USB mass storage drivers? Where in the kernel do I need to look for information on writing them? Is the drive supported in 5.1 (I'm not sure what chipset it's using)? If so, how hard would it be to backport (or should I forget it and just upgrade to 5.1 with my lazy ass)? How badly am I going to screw up the HDD when my driver doesn't work? ;) Hope there're some ideas out there :) Thanks!

All the necessary drivers are already there in the GENERIC kernel.

HZ = 1000 slows down application
Hi all, I am expertmenting with kernel device polling on a 4.8-RELEASE system. The application I am running is a traffic pumping application that sits in an infinite while loop. At the time of this test it was doing 6Mbps in and 5Mbps out traffic. CPU usage is 40% without polling enabled, typical CPU usage is roughly 1/3 user, 1/3 system and 1/3 interrupt. I am using the fxp driver. I customized my kernel with HZ=1000 and enabled polling via sysctl...CPU usage dropped from 40% to 30%. Great so far. But now I noticed that my application is occassionally doing slower iterations. Average iteration time used to be 0.2 ms without polling enabled. With the device polling changes, the average time is still around the same, but once every few minutes the application sees iterations that are 3.3 seconds (*seconds*, not a typo) long. This seems to happen as soon as I use the kernel with HZ=1000. Enabling or disabling device polling does not seem to make any difference to this behavior. I am trying to understand why there seem to be a few really long iterations. Could it happen that the application does not get any CPU for that long? Seems very counter intuitive that higher HZ should cause this. Could anyone shed any light on what is happening ?

Re: pppoe - nmap - No buffer space available
Hi terry, i can corroborate this problem, with 4.x AND 5.x, without beeing the network interface down. We are also using a pppoe link outsides, and i can do a ping in parallel, which is working continously, so the tun0 stays online. My theorie is, that he keeps the sockets open in state TIME_WAIT, and this takes too long for the fast nmap scans. cheers Kai [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: sendto in send_tcp_raw: sendto(3, packet, 40, 0, X.X.X.X, 16) = No buffer space available Your interface is down.

Good day, I am obliged to confide in you with the hope that you will understand my plight and need of assistance. I got your address from the net and after praying for God´s guidance, decided to contact you. I am Mariam Bangura, daughter of late Mr John Bangura of Sierra Leone who was killed by the Sierra Leone's rebel forces on the 24th of December,1999 in my country Sierra Leone. When he was still alive, he deposited one trunk box containing the sum of USD$10 million dollars in cash (Ten Million dollars). with a private security and safe deposit company here in Abidjan Cote d´Ivoire. This money was made from the sell of Gold and Diamond by my mother and she have already decided to use this money for future investment of the family. Recently, I rushed down to Abidjan after being able to locate where my late father kept the depository Agreement made between himself and the security company. I have confirmed from the security company that the consignment is in their custody, when I demanded for the release of the consignment to me in my capacity of being the daughter of Mr Bangura, the depositor of the consignment, I was told that in the absence of my father, the only person that can demand for the release of the consignment is my late father´s foreign partner on whose behalf the consignment was deposited. Meanwhile, my father have instructed me that in the case of his death, that I should look for a trusted foreigner who can assist me to move out this money from Côte d´Ivoire immediately for investment . Based on this , I solicit for your assistance to transfer this fund into your Account, but I will demand for the following requirement: (1) Could you provide for me a safe Bank Account where this fund will be transferred to in your country after retrieving the box containing the money from the custody of the security company. (2) Could you be able to introduce me to a profitable business venture that would not require much technical expertise in your country where part of this fund will be invested? I am a Christian and I will please, want you to handle this transaction based on the trust I have established on you. For your assistance in this transaction, I have decided to compensate you with 10 percent of the total amount at the end of this business. The security of this business is very important to me and as such, I would like you to keep this business very confidential. I shall expect an early response from you. Thank you and God bless.

Three Free Psychology/Self-Improvement Software Downloads
.html was listed for voting.The basic principle is that by using your brain, you can increase your mental fitness by exersing it, just as you do physical muscles. Mind Media's IQ Builder and thinkFast software featured on brain.com work along these principles. They both give you a variety of mental tests, which focus on a spectrum of mental abilities. By increasing the difficulty over trials, you build mental muscle. Now thinkFast has become an online application and added features, which take the idea of mental fitness workouts further. ThinkFast is the perfect mind-mini gym and allows you to measure and save your improvements online. It works you out on a wide variety of mental skills. The program even includes your own Personal Tutor who coaches you to greater mental heights. 3.http://www.goalpro.com/index.cfm?ID=50571 I've written a lot in June and July about GoalPro - which I consider one of the most helpful software programs I've used to help me organize for success. I'm featuring it here again because you've got to look around the site to find that in addition to the software version, there's an online version of GoalPro you can purchase as a subscription which allows anyone including Mac and Linux users to use this significant program. Here's what I wrote in June: The people who publish GoalPro 5.0 calls it The most effective success management application available and the funny thing is - - they may be right! GoalPro software in tandem with Microsoft Outlook is the combo that I use. But you don't have to use GoalPro on a PC. The people at GoalPro have kept up with the state-of-the- art and are offering GoalPro with most of its features intact as an online application. So Macintosh and Linux users as well as anyone who has access to the web can begin using GoalPro right now. What does the program do? Well it's hard to describe all of what it does briefly and so next month this publication will have a feature length review of GoalPro. In short, it guides you through the process of listing and clarifying your most important life objectives. You list a set of concrete goals to reach each of these objectives and also create short term tasks for reaching the objectives and goals. The program not only helps you create your success tree of objectives, goals and tasks, it sets up a regular daily and separate weekend routine where you visit these lists and determine how you are doing. This is called Success Coach and it's pretty darn useful. There's even a past-due management system where people who set too many tasks or procrastinate can evaluate and reschedule missed deadlines. Download a free thirty-day trial - - you might want to keep using it -- I did. 4. http://www.timecontrol.cc Panella Strategies: Success-Centered Time Management Power and Power Marketing Principles is not an exactly an online application but I put it here because it relies on the multimedia capabilities of the web to deliver an extensive library of time management principles developed by Vince Panella. During the past 18 years, his profit and time-building programs have influenced thousands of companies and tens of thousands of people in 25 countries around the world. The application- like section is called the Time Control Room and it has series of modules which take several days to learn (Panella finds that most people who take other time management courses don't learn anything because they are presented two quickly so they are forgotten just as quickly. Real Audio lectures by Vince Panella are supplemented by written materials available for download and the program together works very well. The cost is $20 per month but readers of this column can email mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] and get yearlong subscription for only $49.95 if you mention that Robert Galpren, Editor-In-Cheif from the Mind Media review sent you. 5.http://www.ansir.com -- Ashir.com is more than a web site, it is one premier example of Mindware online app. Ashir.com starts with a personality test which uses a unique system called the Ansir Style of Relating. You take the test after registering and are rated on 14 different personality attributes. Here is what they say about their test. Discover your Self- truth and potential!

We replaced accus (5 pcs 12V 4Ah) and we charged them for 48 hours but the control light is still blinking. Do you have any advice what to do? Where it is possible to get the electrical plans of this unit? I would be grateful for any help. try to measure the battery voltage and the load current. perhaps the batterys are low level decharged,,, (a 12v battery have less than 10V). the try to load it a while with a battery loader (perhaps a car-battery loader) and limit the current to 300ma. that should work.. Finally, we found the proper solution. Only the proper reset was needed. Inside of the unit, close to the front panel there is an 8 position DIP switch. The uppermost switch should change the position and then the reset button on the front panel should be pressed. The unit reset is finalized by turning the unit off, then DIP switch should be pressed into the initial position and when you switch the unit on, everything is OK. Thank you for all advises and best regards Marjan Hi, thanks for the personal cc, but I don't have a Fiskars, it sounds useful info though, so I suggest you cd /usr/ports/*/nut ; grep MAINTAINER Makefile # (as fallback if next fails) make patch explore tree for author of Nut, mail him your notes to incorporate in nut-0.45.0.tar.gz (applicable to FreeBSD-4.4) That way your detective work gets to be saved for others :-) Cheers.

I say potentially because I think it's still within our grasp to resolve the matter without undue fuss, but if anyone on either side is determined to make it sticky then things will be. I guess if those who know of resources Wind River contributes, ensure we don't forget to acknowledge them, it may help ensure good relations ?

Re. The Foundation [was Re: FreeBSD Mall now BSDCentral]
Hackers, CC [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wind River might be cautious slow when considering donating the FreeBSD trademark to a FreeBSD Foundation controlled by a board of just 3 directors, that even FreeBSD people are just getting to know of, have yet to evaluate as `The Foundation'. Wind River might find it easier quicker to decide to donate the trademark to the foundation, if the foundation comprised not just 3 self appointed directors, but perhaps included at least 3 non executive directors on their board. Adding 3 non-execs might increase the assurance of others too, not just WR. BOD could invite core to nominate the first few that BOD appoint. The non execs could retire by chronological rotation, as real directors do. As I recall FreeBSD Inc (ie jkh dg, a team of 2) once held the trademark, then it moved to Walnut, then BSDi, then Wind River. If DEC can be bought by Compaq, British Telecom can run into financial trouble, I see no reason to believe Wind River to be a magic safe haven, but equally, FreeBSD Foundation with just 3 on the board, has merely a 50% greater attraction as a safe haven run by 3 FreeBSD trustees, than FreeBSD Inc. had with a team of 2. Safety in numbers: If BOD want just 3 execs to make operations easy, fine, _But_ if BOD want us to be broadly reaasured that they will be a safe haven for FreeBSD assets such as the trademark, It'd look much better if BOD appointed some non-execs to their board, purely in a supervisory/trustee, non-exec role. The sooner BOD appoint a handfull of non-execs, some nominated by core, the sooner it'll be easy to encourage Wind River to donate the trademark, before who knows what might happen at, to, or within Wind River ?

Re: fd driver hacking to recover data
Brian, Joerg, cc hackers Brian W. Buchanan wrote: Any fdc driver gurus in the house? I have a bunch of old floppy disks with some text files I'd like to recover. Many of them have errors and are unreadable past a certain point in the disk. Others I can't read from at all. The ones I can't read, period, are all 1.44MB-size floppies. I've tried dd'ing from /dev/fd0c, /dev/fd0.1440, etc., but exits with Input/Output Error before copying anything. The kernel prints: fd0c: hard error reading fsbn 0 of 0-31 (ST0 40abnrml ST1 1no_am ST2 0 cyl 0 hd 0 sec 1) I've been more successful reading 720K floppies from /dev/fd0.720, but many of them have errors that stop dd in its tracks, yielding another Input/Output error.

I've looked at the floppy driver source and it seems to be incredibly low-level, i.e. it turns the drive motor on and off, even.

Re: Snowhite and the Seven Dwarfs - The REAL story!
A few months ago someone suggested that all binary attachments should be stripped from freebsd-hackers mail. I believe it is still a very good idea, and patches tend to be posted as text anyway. Good Idea. We should'nt filter out all mail with MIME enclosures, as occasionally MIME enclosures are validly used on FreeBSD lists, But to list a few WIBNIs: (WIBNI = Woundn't It Be Nice If ) We could bounce/kill all postings containing MIME with .exe spam. (We have uuencode in the rare event we need to broadcast a binary.) We could bounce/kill postings containing MIME with .doc enclosures, stopping: more spam EG non Unix oriented people dumping .doc resumes on jobs@freebsd. OK, it would also reject .doc format job adverts, some may not like that, but if a company is so uncaring/incompetent they can't even reformat a bounced .doc in ascii or some public format, I'm not interested. We could also bounce/kill postings containing Content-Type: text/html; charset=big5 other non latin fonts, as we all use latin fonts on freebsd lists, it being the only one we all understand. Sure some people set charset=big5 by mistake ( then send ascii anyway), they are discussing real FreeBSD issues, but it'd cut spam from non latin charset originators. We could also bounce/kill postings containing possibly auto-load HREFs ? (Do they exist as such ?

A plump penguin gives no offense (herrings excepted ?), but a Daemon/Demon/Devil is in comparison a bit of a marketing own goal. We're stuck with it now (from processes, promoting BSD with Chuck so long); most non BSD people dont care, but some react negatively, sharpening Chuck would be a deterent to some non BSD potential converts. A cdrom burner software package that runs on MS/Wincrap, has a `sharp' red demon on the box holding a bolt of lightning. At first glance it looks as if it might be a BSD product, thankfully it's not: A daemon like that would be an impediment at customer presentations, when telling people we intend to install BSD (CD in hand, Chuck prominent). A graphic of a daemon trident stuck in a penquin would alienate some Linux people, but a graphic of a penguin a Chuck co-operating, jointly pulling out a fishing net, full of greenback fish labeled "MS" might make a good poster for joint marketing/promotion. Presumably it's cheaper to manufacture stuffed penguin mascots, than Chuck's ? no ears, no real leg, no trident, ... easier to prop up on exhibition stands without falling over.
