Page fault in kernel when using CD, BSD 7.2
Hi, Second problem: on a machine (Core 2 Quad, 2.24 GHz) the CD/DVD drive has started to give me page faults in the kernel. The press any key on the console to halt the reboot does not work. Okay, now it's happening with nothing but the fsck running. It takes maybe fifteen minutes. I'm using an ASUS P5N7A-VM mobo, AMI BIOS. The NB heatsink is barely warm (fan cooled), the memory is just warm to the touch, I've blown everything out, etc. I've got two SATA disks (Seagate and WD), in a carrier well-ventilated by a fan. They are barely warm. The CD was not in use. Ambient temperature is about 83 to 86F and this machine is a mobo on a standoffs on a board (until I free up the case it's supposed to go in). Granted that I may have a HW problem, but does the way the problem has manifested suggest anything about where to start?

Page fault in kernel when using CD, BSD 7.2
Hi, In the last two days I've had two nasty problems on two machines. The first started dumping core on epiphany, apparently when the Javascript garbage collector ran. I found that the fan on the video card was running and stopping. I jury-rigged a fan over it (until I get a new one) and the problem has gone away. Probably nothing to do with the second problem, but who knows? Second problem: on a machine (Core 2 Quad, 2.24 GHz) the CD/DVD drive has started to give me page faults in the kernel. The press any key on the console to halt the reboot does not work. I've been using this drive on and off for months. I've checked all the connections (PATA), blown out the machine (the temperatures reported by sysctl range from 50 to 59 degrees from core to core), and put a different power lead into the drive. Sometimes the console gets large transfer errors (I don't want to excite the problem right now, as the fsck is finally running) before the fault. The disk transfers don't work, the drive won't open, the process can't be interrupted, etc. The error usually comes a few minutes after the drive stops working. Yes, the processor is running a little hot, but I don't think it's dangerous and its been like this for months. I have a compact heat sink on it and the interaction between the rotor/stator fan and the CPU speed control reduces the speed too much at low load. But again, it's been like that for months. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is it worth trying a new PATA or SATA drive?

Oliver Fromme wrote: Ryan Coleman ryan.cole...@cwis.biz wrote: He thinks that at 500W needed it would give me about 12 minutes on a 1400VA. That W and VA numbers of the UPS are pretty much irrelevant, because they tell nothing about the capacity of the battery. Those numbers only give an upper limit on the power that the UPS can handle (i.e. you cannot connect devices totalling 800 W to a 500 W UPS, for example). In order to be able to estimate how long the UPS can power wattage, you need to know the capacity of the battery. The capacity is usually given in Ah units (Ampere hours). For example, a battery with 10 Ah capacity can deliver 10 Ampere for 1 hour, or 20 Ampere for 30 minutes, or 30 Ampere for 20 Minutes ... and so on. At a typical battery voltage of 12 V, 30 A would be 360 W. So, theoretically a 10 Ah battery would be able to hold devices that use 360 W for about 20 Minutes. In practice it will be less because no UPS has 100% efficiency. Best regards Oliver Another often overlooked detail is how long the battery will last. These amp-hour figures are all for new batteries, and the number of discharge/charge cycles has some effect over time as well. Generally speaking when a UPS just sits there and does very little the batteries are like new for the first two years. Somewhere into year 3 they begin to nose over the derating curve. So at year 3.75 they will have signifigantly less full power runtime than when new. The quality of manufacture for the batteries controls this, for example with lead-acid how much metal goes into the plates. I admit to being bitten a time or two: There is a certain tendency to put the UPS in the rack and walk away and forget all about it. I've learned the hard way to keep records so I can replace weak batteries in a timely fashion. Or this happens: But that server should have been able to stay up 20 minutes instead of crashing at 7 minutes... -Mike ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

If you're using 127.0.0.1, you can only ping the host's own IP addresses, because packets with a localnet IP never leave a machine. If you're using the real address (192.168.1.38) for the jail, then you should be able to ping all addresses that you can ping from the host. I just did a quick test on my machine; it has the IP address 172.20.0.2 (which is being translated with NAT on my router, but that doesn't matter): HOST# sysctl security.jail.allow_raw_sockets=1 security.jail.allow_raw_sockets: 0 - 1 HOST# jail / testjail 172.20.0.2 /bin/sh -E # ping www.google.com PING www.l.google.com (66.102.13.105): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 66.102.13.105: icmp_seq=0 ttl=54 time=31.196 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.13.105: icmp_seq=1 ttl=54 time=25.553 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.13.105: icmp_seq=2 ttl=54 time=27.086 ms 192.168.1.38 is the host's ip so I use 127.0.0.1 for the jail. Well, localnet addresses are not routed. If you give your jail a localnet address, it won't be able to access the network outside of the host. (Unless you take measures to rewrite/translate the addresses and forward them.) That's why DNS and portsnap don't work. I suggest using the address 192.168.1.38 for the jail, at least during installation. Make sure that the file /etc/resolv.conf inside the jail is correct, so DNS will work. Copying it from the host should be sufficient. Isn't 192.168.1.38 a localnet address too ? It's a private address (RFC 1918). I assume that you've got a NAT router that translates it to a public IP address. Do you mean I should use the public ip of my computer here ? Do you have one? So far you only mentioned 192.168.1.38. I thought it was intended to be impossible to access the host from the jail. It depends on what you want to do with the jail. Jails can be used for vastly different purposes.

David Allen the.real.david.al...@gmail.com wrote: I've read comments in the past about setting up jails using local loopback addresses, but I'm wondering if you wouldn't mind elaborating on what the actual pf rules would look like. Say you have 3 jails and more than one public IP address: ns127.0.0.2 public_ip_1 mail 127.0.0.3 public_ip_2 www 127.0.0.4 public_ip_3 You want to pass port 25 traffic to/from the 'mail' jail. But you also need that jail to use the correct public_ip address. Is that possible without using, for example, pf's binat? Just for completeness, this is a little how-to that describes how you do it with IPFW. You do not have to configure NAT. One single fwd rule is sufficient. The following example works on FreeBSD 8.1. In this example, I'll use port 42, the jail has address 127.0.0.2 on lo0, and nc (netcat) is used in place of a real daemon. The real (external) address of the host machine is 10.5.5.5. HOST# is the prompt of the server machine that hosts the jail, JAIL# is the prompt within that host machine's jail, and CLIENT$ is the prompt of a separate physical machine on the same network which is used for testing purposes. First add an alias IP to the lo0 (localnet) interface. HOST# ifconfig lo0 inet 127.0.0.2/32 alias In order to make that permament, you have to add an alias line to /etc/rc.conf, of course: ifconfig_lo0_alias0=inet 127.0.0.2/32 Check the addresses: HOST# ifconfig lo0 | grep -w inet inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff00 inet 127.0.0.2 netmask 0x Install the IPFW fwd rule: HOST# ipfw add 1 fwd 127.0.0.2 tcp from any to 10.5.5.5 42 1 fwd 127.0.0.2 tcp from any to 10.5.5.5 dst-port 42 To make that permanent, add these lines to /etc/rc.conf: firewall_enable=YES firewall_type=/etc/ipfw.conf And create a file /etc/ipfw.conf containing these lines: -f flush add fwd 127.0.0.2 tcp from any to 10.5.5.5 42 Ok, now start the jail. For the sake of this example, we simply re-use the host's installed base, i.e. the jail's root path is /. For a real jail you would use the jail's root directory, of course. HOST# jail / testjail 127.0.0.2 /bin/sh -E Finally start a netcat (nc) process in the jail. In a real jail, this would be an apache process on port 80, a mail transfer agent on port 25, whatever. JAIL# nc -ln 42 Now the netcat process is listening on port 42 inside the jail on the localnet address 127.0.0.2. You can verify that with sockstat(1) on the host: HOST# sockstat | grep -w 42 root nc 1953 3 tcp4 127.0.0.2:42 *:* You can now connect to that service from a different system on the network, using the external IP address of the host. The IPFW fwd rule reroutes the packets destined for port 42 to the jail's localnet address. CLIENT$ echo Hello world | nc 10.5.5.5 42 As a result, netcat will echo the string Hello world in the jail, and the nc process will terminate. Note: In order to be able to use IPFW fwd rules, you should have these two lines in your kernel config: optionsIPFIREWALL optionsIPFIREWALL_FORWARD If you don't intend to use IPFW for anything else than fwd, you can also include the following line, so you don't have to install any additional allow rules: optionsIPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT That's especially useful if you want to use IPFW for forwarding only, and use another software for actual packet filtering (i.e. pf or ipf).

Hi, Second problem: on a machine (Core 2 Quad, 2.24 GHz) the CD/DVD drive has started to give me page faults in the kernel. The press any key on the console to halt the reboot does not work. Okay, now it's happening with nothing but the fsck running. It takes maybe fifteen minutes. Okay, I've got a suspect. I got it past the fsck by going ino Single User and doing the file systems one disk at a time. (Two on this machine). I suspect the power supply has gone marginal. My spare is much bigger than the what I need for this machine; I'll wait on a replacement if I can. And I'll let you all know. Thanks to those who've written.

ISC eventlib
Hello folks, I'm a big fan of your work. I'm working on an application that essentially requires an eventlib (evSetTimer, etc.) All the research I've done points to bind9 and, I guess, trying to extract it from there. I actually tried extracting some files from bind9 and building a libevent.a but it core dumps some time. My question is does anyone know where I can get an ISC eventlib package to install in my FreeBSD env. Thanks -frank --- Frank J.

But reading the words from a file is equivalent and as you note most likely easier to do. The question is what is more efficient. This might be important if that kind of grep command is run very often by a script, or if it's run on very large files. It's exactly the same, since it's the same program using the same search algorithm. The only thing that's different is the input language for the pattern. What looks like a bunch of separate patterns in the input file is internally turned into one pattern that is then compiled into a state machine that it uses to match the input.

Is there a way to rebuild 32-bit libraries under amd64?
I have 8.0-STABLE amd64 machine, and I need to run some 32-bit FreeBSD process which runs fine on 8.0-STABLE i386. So I copied all shared libs needed by it from i386 into there respective locations on amd64, but under lib32/ folder. libexecinfo.so.1 = /usr/local/lib32/libexecinfo.so.1 (0x289ca000) libffi.so.5 = /usr/local/lib32/libffi.so.5 (0x289d5000) libstdc++.so.6 = /usr/local/lib32/libstdc++.so.6 (0x289da000) libm.so.5 = /usr/lib32/libm.so.5 (0x28ac4000) libgcc_s.so.1 = /usr/local/gcc/4.5.0-32bit/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x28add000) libthr.so.3 = /usr/lib32/libthr.so.3 (0x28ae9000) libc.so.7 = /usr/lib32/libc.so.7 (0x28afe000) But the process crashes. After debugging I found that regexec returns result different from what it returns on i386 with the same input. So my question is: is there a way to rebuild for example /usr/lib32/libc.so.7 and /usr/lib32/libthr.so.3 on amd64? Or what may cause such incompatibility?

Re: X11 question
Indeed you are right. I installed xinit from ports but something didn't
happen as it should have. I tried again using pkg_add as you suggested
and startx does exist now.
I installed olvwm several days ago and it did not pull in the xorg stuff
also.
Thanks for the help!

My consideration is, then, give the server 2 minutes on battery. If full power has not been returned, shut down the server but leave the modem (w/ wireless) and switch running with power for up to 6 hours. A bit of advice: If this is an unattended system, give some thought to how you will boot the server back up if the outage is longer than two minutes but shorter than six hours. Most UPS installations have *some* kind of race condition issue if power comes back after the servers have begun a shutdown, but in your case it's an unusually long window. Meaning that my 2-minute window is unusually long? If the UPS can support the system for 12 minutes, I say give it 20% of the life of the support because our power outages here are usually spikes that kill my current web server (but amazingly *not* my file server). In fact, one of those power fluxes occurred last night. I love storms for the light shows, but hate them for the toll they take on my servers. Nope, 2 minutes is fine, maybe even short depending on how long your system takes to shut down. What I'm asking about is this scenario: 1. Power goes out. 2. Server shuts itself down after 2 minutes. 3. Power comes back on before the UPS batteries are exhausted. The server never sees a power cycle, so it doesn't boot itself back up until someone physically goes and pushes the button. ## I have had these power dips and surges here in Hawaii. I have installed UPS power from two stationary batters that will run the servers for 12 hours. We have experienced extensive outages in the past and this was our only solution. Surges are almost impossible to stop. I have them jump cross a surge protector. I have recently had several UPS Desktop backups fail from a surge and then a drop below 70 v. This caused the UPS to have the charging diodes blow. It was cheaper to replace the UPS 's than to repair them. #3. The motherboard bios can be set to stop a server from self booting from a power outage. Yes. The downside comes from when the BIOS is told to turn on the server at, say, 10pm and the power is still out... it starts the process and runs out of battery mid-way through the boot before it gets the chance to load the UPS controller. #3. Thats why setting the bios not to self boot would work. (Stopping the bios from turning the server on after an outage.) Someone would have to check the power status manually before throwing the switch manually to make it come up after power has been restored. Also turning servers and some desktops off and on is many cases a bad idea. Example: I was called out today to look at a desktop that was turned off while the user went away for a month. It did not survive the turn on. Corrosion took its toll on the mobo and fans. The humidity was the cause. No humidity in the case when the unit is on and fans (3 of them) are working.

Re: Is there a way to rebuild 32-bit libraries under amd64?
I have 8.0-STABLE amd64 machine, and I need to run some 32-bit FreeBSD process which runs fine on 8.0-STABLE i386. So I copied all shared libs needed by it from i386 into there respective locations on amd64, but under lib32/ folder. libexecinfo.so.1 = /usr/local/lib32/libexecinfo.so.1 (0x289ca000) libffi.so.5 = /usr/local/lib32/libffi.so.5 (0x289d5000) libstdc++.so.6 = /usr/local/lib32/libstdc++.so.6 (0x289da000) libm.so.5 = /usr/lib32/libm.so.5 (0x28ac4000) libgcc_s.so.1 = /usr/local/gcc/4.5.0-32bit/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x28add000) libthr.so.3 = /usr/lib32/libthr.so.3 (0x28ae9000) libc.so.7 = /usr/lib32/libc.so.7 (0x28afe000) But the process crashes. After debugging I found that regexec returns result different from what it returns on i386 with the same input. So my question is: is there a way to rebuild for example /usr/lib32/libc.so.7 and /usr/lib32/libthr.so.3 on amd64? Or what may cause such incompatibility? Did you install the 32-bit compatibility libraries and utilities on amd64, by selecting the lib32 option with sysinstall(8), or by running ../lib32/install.sh from the FreeBSD media, or by rebuilding and reinstalling world without a WITHOUT_LIB32 defined in src.conf(5) or make.conf(5)? Then did you make sure that rtld(1) has the proper hints to find any needed 32-bit libraries that are not in the lib32 part of the base system, by defining the right values for ldconfig32_paths and/or ldconfig_local32_dirs in rc.conf(5)? b. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
