information about configurable load-time parameters
Hi, I'm using FreeBSD 9.1 and looking for a way to pass a module parameters on load time. I came across the 'TUNABLE' macros which provided a decent solution. The question that remains is how to notify the user about those configurable load-time parameters ? I guess I'm looking for some kind of 'modinfo' which describes those parameters among other things.

How can I unload/load modules that complied inside the kernel?
Hello. I am using FreeBSD9.1 [root@h-qa-033 ~]# uname -a FreeBSD h-qa-033 9.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE #0: Tue May 28 11:26:45 IDT 2013 root@h-qa-033:/usr/obj/lab/odeds/freebsd/9.1.0/sys/MYKERNEL amd64 OFED and IB support are compiled in kernel. 1. How can I unload/load modules that complied inside the kernel? [root@h-qa-033 ~]# kldstat -v | grep mlx4 -B 5 Id Refs AddressSize Name 1 10 0x8020 13dcbf8 kernel (/boot/kernel/kernel) Contains modules: Id Name 420 mlxen 418 mlx4ib 419 mlx4 I want to unload/load mlx4ib. 2. Is there any way to take it out of kernel and load manually? Like if_lagg for example: [root@h-qa-033 ~]# kldstat Id Refs AddressSize Name 1 10 0x8020 13dcbf8 kernel 31 0x81812000 2197 if_mos.ko 41 0x81815000 690a if_lagg.ko Thanks a lot.

Subversion load problem- svnadmin: Dump stream contains a malformed header (with no ':')
Hi all, I have problem loading a partial dump of one repository into a new repository. When I try to load a partial dump of the old repository, which paths also corrected, I've got the Checksum mismatch error for a file. When I try to replace the Text-content-md5 field of the file on the dump with the correct one using sed command, another error regarding malformed header is occurred(svnadmin: Dump stream contains a malformed header (with no ':'))! I don't know how to fix this problem and I really need this migration to be done. I've searched a lot but couldn't find any solution. Any suggestions or ideas? ___ 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
Re: 9-STABLE doesn't boot: can't load 'kernel'
loader.conf was empty and there's no 4k gnops, geli, anything like that. This is a 100% normal install. Although, since you mentioned 4k blocks, I did leave a gap between ada0p1 and ada0p2 to start the root partition on a 4k boundary. (It's an SSD that will almost never be written to once installed, so that might be a bit silly, but it's a habit already.) I decided to try this again without the gap, and that seems to have worked. I made it through install and partitioning and OS updating to 9-STABLE and installing new boot blocks and it seems to have worked. I even got it to work with a ZFS root. Here's the partition table I ended up with: = 34 234441581 ada0 GPT (111G) 34990 1 freebsd-boot (495k) 1024 226051072 2 freebsd-zfs (107G) 2260520968389519 3 freebsd-swap (4.0G) I'm not sure why this would make a difference, but either it does or doing it cleared out whatever else was wrong. This box will be stress tested and rebooted quite a bit in the next few days, so I will report back if it comes unglued. :) Thanks for the suggestion! ___ 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

I'd say file a bug report, since subtly hidden parts of the disk can be beneficial in the right circumstances. That, and it should just work. Does your drive report the blocks as 512 bytes or 4k? If you're using zfs now, run `zdb | grep ashift` and it should list 12 if it's 4k. Otherwise, you can get a performance hit if the drive's 4k native. Two of my drives are 4k native but report as 512b, so I had to trick zfs with gnop. ___ 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
9-STABLE doesn't boot: can't load 'kernel'
After installing 9.1-RELEASE amd64 on a system, it boots up fine. If I then build and install a new 9-STABLE kernel world, reboots die in the loader with: can't load 'kernel' This is a pretty straightforward system, one drive, not large (128GB SSD). GPT partitioned, gptboot boot code. One UFS root partition to boot from, a swap partition and, the rest for ZFS. (At first I tried to do this system with root-on-ZFS but that also failed, adding unable to load zpool by guid or similar before the can't load 'kernel' message.) Once this happens, the disk is unbootable. I can start from the install CD and access the disk just fine, but even if I move kernel.old back to kernel, it doesn't boot anymore. Likewise, it doesn't matter if I overwrite the boot code with gptboot pmbr from the install CD or the new ones from /boot after installworld. The disk looks like: # gpart show = 34 234441581 ada0 GPT (111G) 34 222 1 freebsd-boot (111k) 256 1792 - free - (896k) 2048 8388608 2 freebsd-ufs (4.0G) 8390656 8388608 3 freebsd-swap (4.0G) 16779264 217662351 4 freebsd-zfs (103G) In the loader: BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.02 Consoles: internal video/keyboard BIOS drive C: is disk0 BIOS 621kB/2067924kB available memory FreeBSD/x86 bootstrap loader, Revision 1.1 (root@builder, Mon Apr 15 09:14:38 UTC 2013) can't load 'kernel' Type '?' for a list of commands, 'help' for more detailed help.

Re: 9-STABLE doesn't boot: can't load 'kernel'
I can't recall, does the cd come with the btx loader? Is it able to see the hard drive partitions and boot that way? Did you put anything in loader.conf? I'm guessing that if you're getting to /boot/loader but not any further, it's something wrong with the conf file. If you're booting UFS, you might be safe just deleting/renaming the file. And just for sanity's sake, you didn't try anything special with geom did you, such as 4k blocks, geli, etc?

A friend had a small dedicated server with a vbulletin forum overloaded with addons, and apache/php were bringing the server to high load levels, 10-20ish. I've moved him to nginx and the server hardly ever goes above 1 now. Additionally, nginx is immune to Slowloris attacks, while apache is not. Only after migrating to nginx would I investigate of the suhosin problem still exists.___ 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

Has suhosin to do something with it? Most likely - yes. I noticed in your config above you built and installed the Apache PHP module in addition to CGI/FastCGI. If you are running Apache in a FastCGI mode you should check and make sure the following is indeed commented out like below: #LoadModule php5_modulelibexec/apache22/libphp5.so The general purpose meaning of this error is that PHP has detected some form of memory corruption. But as to why/what exactly it doesn't help much. The general way I used to look at Apache and PHP problems was to isolate pieces. Like only loading the core PHP and no extensions by renaming the extensions.ini to extensions.ini.bak. This is bound to cause problems as most PHP apps today require a certain basic number of modules enabled in order to work. 2 things to troubleshoot looking for a bad module: comment each out one at a time and restart. When you comment out the bad one you will no longer see the error. Another second item to be aware of is sometimes certain module combinations need to be loaded in extensions.ini in a specific order. Figuring out this order can be nightmarish, should it ever actaully be found to be a problem. Long time ago someone wrote a script to automate this. I seem to have a distant memory that back in early PHP 5.2.x days I had a problem with the mcrypt module. Maybe try commenting that one out first. If you don't need it leave it that way. I also seem to have experienced this error a second time, and it was from a bad interaction between Suhosin patch and two other build options being enabled, one was the Mailhead and I don't remember what the other one was(maybe it was IPv6). I found when I disabled these 2 things I could build with the Suhosin patch and stuff ran correctly. -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
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module gnomesegvhandler after upgrade from 8.2 - 9.0
Hi, I just upgraded from 8.2 - 9.0 using freebsd-update, my first time for the binary upgrade. Since the upgrade, I've been getting these unable to load gnomesegvhandler messages from various software, such as emacs. Any idea what I can do to fix his? The upgrade went fairly smoothly, although freebsd-update deleted more stuff than it should. I had to nuke my ports tree, and install compat8x and all the ports from scratch.

Re[8]: high load system do not take all CPU time
I get it!!
When one of netisr take 100% of CPU other netisr threads did not get
free CPU time.

if this is interesting for anyone.
looks strange:
irq256 - WAIT and

are they wait each other?

Re[8]: high load system do not take all CPU time
RB [drivelectomy -- 200+ lines] RB You've been told the following, *repeatedly*: RB Your hardware is not capable of keeping up with the level of network traffic RB it is being subjected to. RB Reaaltek cards and the 're' device driver are a *BAD*CHOICE* for systems with RB heavy network traffic. They're merely 'medium lousy' on a lightly-loaded RB system, but you don't notice the problems under light loads.

DS is alleged to have said:
How to debug why system do not use free CPU resouces?
On this pictures you can see that CPU can not exceed 400tics
http://piccy.info/view3/2368839/c9022754d5fcd64aff04482dd360b5b2/
http://piccy.info/view3/2368837/a12aeed98681ed10f1a22f5b5edc5abc/
http://piccy.info/view3/2368836/da6a67703af80eb0ab8088ab8421385c/
On these pictures you can see that problems begin with trafic on re0
when CPU load rise to maximum
http://piccy.info/view3/2368834/512139edc56eea736881affcda490eca/
http://piccy.info/view3/2368827/d27aead22eff69fd1ec2b6aa15e2cea3/
But there is 25% CPU idle yet at that moment.

Re: Re[6]: high load system do not take all CPU time
[drivelectomy -- 200+ lines] You've been told the following, *repeatedly*: Your hardware is not capable of keeping up with the level of network traffic it is being subjected to. Reaaltek cards and the 're' device driver are a *BAD*CHOICE* for systems with heavy network traffic. They're merely 'medium lousy' on a lightly-loaded system, but you don't notice the problems under light loads. You have two choices: 1) live with the crappy performance 2) get a better quality network card. ___ 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

Xorg error: New athlon laptop, radeonhd video - unable to load fbdev
I hate to come with this kind of a query, but my googling hasn't come across a satisfactory answer. I'm running an install on a brand new laptop for a client, and I'm trying to get X up using xdm- nothing. The logs says it failed to load fbdev because there is no data module. I try uninstalling fbdev and running a rebuild of xorg- its still using the builtin configuration and still can't load fbdev. No devices detected. I run Xorg -configure, and it shows the radeon card fine, 2 displays. Still working with the config file, but it seems fine. WTF? This is essentially the same hardware as another laptop I've setup (same video card - same brand CPU, just bigger and faster), and its fine. Both are AMD, the original is athlon dual core, the new is phenom quad core. The googling failed as my searches came up with either root has access and user doesn't, or mixed intel/ati. Neither are the case here...

Re: Re[2]: high load system do not take all CPU time
kes-...@yandex.ru wrote; can I get interrupt limit or calculate it before that limit is reached? You can extrapolate from the current cpu time spent in interrupt handling and the current interrupt rate to a situation where roughly 100% of the cpu capacity is spent in interrupt handling. interrupt source is internal card: # vmstat -i interrupt total rate irq14: ata0 349756 78 irq16: ehci07427 1 irq23: ehci1 12150 2 cpu0:timer 18268704 4122 irq256: re0 85001260 19178 cpu1:timer 18262192 4120 cpu2:timer 18217064 4110 cpu3:timer 18210509 4108 Total 158329062 35724 Have you any good I/O tuning links to read? Since the 'issue' is the _network_ card, you are being limited by the rate at which the RealTeK chipset, and the device driver software, can transfer data to/from the Ethernet. This -may- be the 'wire speed' limit, or the hardware simply may not be capable of performing _at_ 'wire speed', or (theoretically) it might be a performance limit in the driver software. In your case, the driver software can be eliminated as the limiting factor because there is lots of 'idle' cpu time. This means that either the 'wire' is saturated, or the hardware (at *either* end of the link) is not capable of operating at full wire speed. Or one is getting bit by the 'bAndwidth delay product' on TCP connections. This describes a situation where the limit on 'un-ACKed' packets transmitted is reached -before- the ACK for the first packet is returned. If the application that use the nentwork are generating lots of 'small' packets, modifying the protocol to use a smaller number of larger packets can make for a -significant- performance increase. Network devices have limits on the number of 'packets per second' they can handle, as well as the bit-rate they can support. Note: If you are doing long-distance, high-latency, 'connections', one may be limited to well below wire speeds by the 'bandwidth delay product'. This issue can be ameliorated by increasing the TCP window size. ___ 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

It is the average of the number of 'runnable' processes -- those that are actually running (which is -- obviously! -- limited to the number of logical cpu's present) and those that are -- in _all_ other respects -- 'ready' to be run. This list of processes -- 'running' and 'runnable -- is known as the 'run queue'. The cpu 'scheduler' allocated cpu time slots between the processes in the 'run queueu', _only_. Anything -not- in the 'run queue' is not eligible for a slice of cpu time -- because it can't use cpu time, if it were to be offered, because it is 'waiting' on something else. ___ 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
load average with multi-core CPU's
Hi all, Can someone explain, or point me to correct documentation on what the load average on top/uptime is actually displaying? Is the load the average amount of processes waiting to execute on the server, or is it independent of CPU? Am I correct with the below statements? * Example 1: 1 CPU, load average of 1.00, CPU at capacity. No processes have to wait to execute. 1 CPU, 2.00 load average, 1 process is waiting to execute. * Example 2: 1 CPU, 4 cores. load average of 2.00. 2 cores are working at capacity, other 2 are idle (mostly). 1 CPU, 4 cores, load average 5.00. 4 cores are at capacity, 1 process waiting to execute. I tried searching, but I couldn't find much besides some blog postings.

Sounds like relayd(8) might be what you need -- in ports as net/relayd. It works with the pf(4) firewall, and you can use it to implement almost all of the functions of an expensive hardware loadbalancer on a cheap PC. It should be able to do what you want -- which I am more familiar with as 'Direct Server Return.' relayd(8) is ported from OpenBSD, and the FreeBSD port doesn't yet support absolutely everything that it can do natively on OpenBSD. The missing stuff is mostly to do with creating a HA firewall/load-balancer pair, which seems to be one of your requirements, so you might want to try it under OpenBSD.

partition that doesn't already have metadata in its last sector.
The good news is that, now having an idea what to look for, I checked
for geom_mirror.ko in /boot/kernel and found -- surprise! -- the
/boot/kernel directory doesn't even exist in the Fixit FS (when
booted from the USB stick, dunno about the CD or DVD) and this is
apparently the cause of gmirror load reporting Command 'load' not
available. The fix is:

and the bad news is that it still doesn't work:
* gmirror load did create /dev/mirror/gm0{,a,b}, and it produced
no output on stdout or stderr, but it appended a couple of lines
to dmesg and the second does not look at all promising:
GEOM_MIRROR: Device mirror/gm0 launched (1/1).

17 is defined in sys/errno.h as EEXIST /* File exists */

the (so far only) provider for gm0, which was just instantiated.

This sure _looks_ as if mirror/gm0 and mirror/gm0a are seeing the
data on ad0s2a, so maybe it's working after all. But:
* After exiting from Fixit, and having sysinstall rescan devices so
as to become aware of /dev/mirror/gm0*, gm0 is not in the disk
list for either Partition (slice) or Label. I even tried:
Fixit# ( cd /dev ln -s mirror/* . ll gm* )
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root 0 10 Sep 6 10:48 gm0@ - mirror/gm0
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root 0 10 Sep 6 10:48 gm0a@ - mirror/gm0a
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root 0 10 Sep 6 10:48 gm0b@ - mirror/gm0b
in case sysinstall looks only in /dev itself and not in any
subdirectories, and gm0 is *still* not in either list. How
do I get sysinstall to see it?

pyglet font load segmentation fault
Dear all,
I posted about this problem a few months ago and have been scouring
the web ever since but I cannot find the slightest hint at a solution.
Actually, it seems that nobody else has reported a similar problem,
which I find really weird since the function is such a basic one in
pyglet -- quoting Zoolander, I feel like I am taking crazy pills!
The problem is that I cannot use the pyglet.font.load() function at
all without causing a segmentation fault:
python
import pyglet
arial = pyglet.font.load('Arial')
Segmentation fault
My system is running FreeBSD 8.1/amd64 with an Nvidia GeForce 9500GT
and the latest driver from Nvidia (256.53), and with all the ports
up-to-date as of today.
python26-2.6.5_1 was compiled with standard options:
WITH_THREADS=true
WITHOUT_HUGE_STACK_SIZE=true
WITHOUT_SEM=true
WITHOUT_PTH=true
WITH_UCS4=true
WITH_PYMALLOC=true
WITH_IPV6=true

Any help would be tremendously appreciated,

xsltproc: failed to load external entity

Current plan is to purchase another variety of gigabit card to see if it is specific to the intel card. If memory serves, I think there may have been some traffic about something like this on the -CURRENT list. You might look/search there and see if it sounds similar. If it seems like it might be the same thing, look for an MFC back to -STABLE. Sometimes the fix for very a specific item which has been addressed is to take a system to -STABLE in order to obtain the fixed bits. Research and confirm first, before considering such an update. My policy on -STABLE in the past is I only think about going there for a very narrow and specific situation where I know I have a problem that the devs have seen, analyzed, and fixed, with subsequent MFC. Something else too - if you can disable the vr and the USB chips completely, it might provide a data point. IRQ sharing is supposed to work well, and it is something that may be eliminated from the scenario easily if you do not need these things. -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

Does it solved in PHP 5.3.x only? Unfortunately 5.3 and 5.2 code are not fully compatible, PHP-based software (like CMS and BBs) updates slowly, and most of webmasters couldn't migrate to 5.3 just in moment. Would it be fixed for 5.2.x?

Cannot load library /usr/local/kde4/lib/kde4/konq_aboutpage.so:
Dear fellow FreeBSD users, I have installed FreeBSD 8.0 and updated it to current p2 I try to use konqueror and I get There was an error loading the module About-Page for Konqueror. The diagnostics is: Cannot load library /usr/local/kde4/lib/kde4/konq_aboutpage.so: (Shared object libjpeg.so.10 not found, required by libkhtml.so.7) I tried to install some ports and TeXLive from GoogleGroups page by Romain, but apparently was unsuccessful. I tried to install kile, and k3b and both not work because of error4 similar to the one konqueror gives. As regular user I cannot launch terminal, I have to run as root in the meantime, is there any way to fix this? I have run FreeBSD before, with the release prior to jumping on KDE 4.X bandwagon, but my hardrive went down and stopped using it. Thanks for any advice given to fix these issues.

Well, you have assumed that the furture demand on the system will involve the pages which are swapped out. If that assumption is false, bringing them back into memory now will dramatically slow down system responsiveness in the future, because the scarce resoure will be free memory pages, which was the reason they were swapped out in the first place. The reason that they are still out there with a bunch of free memory is that nothing has referenced them since they were written out - so maybe it will be a long time yet (if ever) before many/some/all of them are referenced again? If the same situation occurs again which caused them to be swapped out to begin with, before a situation occurs which references them, you'll be hurting your future system response time, not helping it. You may know these things are so and will happen in that way, but it is not self-evident from the e-mail.

Currently I'm using a blank make.conf, meaning it is not present (as it is by default on a fresh installed system). [snip] I am using this motherboard with an AMD x4 630 Propus cpu and 4G Ram (2x2GB). I have done a basic overclock to 3.36GHz with the ram running at 1600MHz. This is my KDE4 desktop machine running FreeBSD 8 and all ports currently up to date. When selecting the RAM to put on this motherboard you should have consulted the list from Gigabyte for approved memory and chosen very carefully. The memory I actually have was not an exact line item from the list, but it was something extremely close and which was designed and manufactured for use with an AM3 socket motherboard. You will notice that some RAM today is designed for Intel P55 chipsets and Lynnfield processors while other RAM is designed specifically for AM3/AM2 socket use. It is probably not a good idea to disregard this during selection, e.g. memory not specifically meant for AM3 socket mobos may not function correctly. I also seem to recall seeing somewhere that this motherboard acquires limitations in overclocking when all 4 sockets are filled and the best overclocking results when only 2 sockets are in use. I am only using 2 sockets in a 2x2GB arrangement for 4GB RAM total. If you are not overclocking and have all 4 sockets filled you may not be able to go above 1066MHz memory multiplier. With only 2 sockets populated 1333MHz should be attainable. I believe your problem centers around memory. It may not be designed for AM3 socket and/or may not be able to handle a higher memory multiplier. When I first put this motherboard in I attempted to boot from an already installed OS with the memory multiplier set too high and saw numerous examples similar to what you are describing. Since I had bought 1600MHz memory I mistakenly set the multiplier too high. When I set it back to 1333MHz everything was fine. Either the memory multiplier is set too high for your RAM or it is just the wrong RAM to begin with. As far as make.conf goes I use: CPUTYPE?= k8 -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

I'm using two of this: OCZ3P1333LVAM4GK (OCZ DDR3 AMD Edition, rated for 1333MHz at 1.65V). My Board is rated for 1066 - 1600 MHz memory, and neither the website nor the manual say anything about limitations with memory. Anyway: I didn't overclock cpu or memory. I have stability and long life in mind, so I try to keep the hardware cool. During testing I underclocked the memory with 1066 and 800 MHz which didn't help: The machine crashes anyway. The only thing to note is that by default the board tries to set 1.5V DDR3 Voltage which is wrong, you have to set it to 1.65V manually. A faulty piece of hardware was the first thing I suspected and I tested among other things the memory with memtest86+. This runs fine for 4 passes, without any error. As far as I can tell, my memory subsystem is ok. As for make.conf: thanks, I will set this when I try again. with best regards Sven -- 00 ___ 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
