gmirror
Hardware: SATA RAID adapter with SiliconImage 3114 chip. 2 SATA HDD. I did gmirror. Run test: 3 parallel tasks dd if=/dev/mirror/gm0 of=/dev/null bs=1m count=5000 gstat shows summary read speed from mirror about 30-40 mbyte/sec. It is for all balance algorithms: load, round-robin, split While, one dd if=/dev/ad4 of=/dev/null bs=1m count=5000 shows 50 mbyte/sec 1. Why it occurs and how fix it ? 2. If in the test instead of three instancies of dd if=/dev/mirror/gm0 of=/dev/null bs=1m count=5000 run only one, then read speed don`t exceeds read speed from one disk (dd if=/dev/ad4 of=/dev/null bs=1m count=5000) a) This is gmirror feature ? b) This is hardware feature (SiliconImage 3114 chip) ? ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

5.4-RELEASE amd64: Panic isadma_start : bad bounce buffer
Just been trying to install FreeBSD 5.4 amd64 here and when loading the raid control kernel module driver ( hptmv ) from floppy and booting I was getting: Panic isadma_start : bad bounce buffer The driver install docs stated to disable ACPI it this happened this prevented the cards from being detected. Anyway I found a workaround which is interesting. After loading the module from floppy I unplugged the floppy drive this seems to fix the issue, no panic and the controllers detected find ( installing as we speak ) so is there a problem with floppy access in amd64 5.4?

I don't mind this too much as in my application low seek times are worth more than high transfer rates, but it is still puzzling to me to see such a remarkable drop in throughput. For large sequential reads on a round-robin mirror, you might be forcing each drive to do a lot more small seeks than if you just accessed the data from a single drive, and those small seeks may be slowing down the overall transfer significantly. I would have thought that large, whole-track caches prevalent on modern hard disks would ameliorate that problem in an otherwise quiescent environment, but, dependent upon the drive's caching policy, you never know...

Probably not, especially if you start the parallel tasks going at the same time. That way, the second and third tasks are almost certainly hitting data in the hard drive's cache, rather than the actual disk platters, and so are more likely to be testing the interface transfer speed than the hard drive's sustained performance. For a better model (of parallel large sequential transfers), you should at the very least stagger the start times of each task, to minimise cache effects. The better question to ask yourself is this: are large sequential transfers a good model of my workload. That is what you are testing with your dd's. Seek times are the dominant cost of a disk transfer. Large sequential transfers are a best-case scenario for I/O measurements because they involve minimal seek overheads. However, best-case and real-world are not usually the same thing.

5.4 install disc1 will not find hard drive
I have seen this problem on the questions list since 5.0 first can out as development version. Here 5.4 is now stable release and this problem is still not fixed. I have been using the same pc to test installing stable versions from miniinst.iso every version since 3.4 without any problems. Even 5.3-miniinst.iso worked just 2 weeks ago. The 5.4 stable does not have a miniinst.iso file so this time I used the disc1.iso to burn the install cd from and when booting from this cd I now get no hard drive found message from sysinstall (standard install) menu. This sure looks very strange to me as I can put in the cd burned from the 5.3-miniinst.iso file and the system installs just fine. Only difference is using disc1 this time. Even though the md5 CHECKSUM matched I downloaded and reburned disc1.iso again just to verify it was good. Power management and APIC have been bios disabled since version FreeBSD 3.4 version so that is not the problem. I tried selecting safe option to boot and still get same error 'no hard disk found. My hard drive is an western digital 310100 on ata0 as master. When using this 5.4 install cd on other pc/ motherboard/ hard drive combos I get same error. I think there is something wrong with the build process of the disc1.iso file. The miniinst.iso must be build using a different canned script that does not incorporated the bug that is in the disc1 build. Maybe the .ISO builds team needs to take a look at this problem. And to continue on with this thought why does 5.4 NOT have a miniinst.iso file? ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

To work around this problem, set: sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16 then try your boot0cfg. There's a protection mechanism that sometimes gets confused by certain partition table layouts. Flag 16 disables that protection. I don't recommend running this unless you are explicitly trying to updating something in a partition table-like area; its very easy to destroy your system with the flag set!

You probably also want to use the options of your printer (single/doublesided, short/long edge, resolution, input tray, paper type, etc.) In that case I recommend getting the foomatic-rip filter (a single large perl script) from linuxprinting.org/foomatic-rip, which parses your printer's PPD file (which normally comes with the printer, or is available from the vendor's site.) I haven't gotten local filters to work with remote printers plus passing arguments to them with the antique base lpr, so I installed LPRng. Easier to set up and more transparent than cups in any case (but you have to remove/rename the base lpr and put NO_LPR=yes into make.conf). mkb. ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The miniinst.iso must be build using a different canned script that does not incorporated the bug that is in the disc1 build. Maybe the .ISO builds team needs to take a look at this problem. The only difference is the files included in the mkisofs run. The exact same files are used. And to continue on with this thought why does 5.4 NOT have a miniinst.iso file? That's a good question :-) I didn't realize we hadn't made one. -- Doug White| FreeBSD: The Power to Serve [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.FreeBSD.org ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

What I *can* do is insert my SuSE9.2-pro cd1, boot from that and at the grub-menu say boot from harddisk. That boots FreeBSD. On advice from IRC, I tried: # boot0cfg -B twed0 -which leads to this output boot0cfg: write_mbr: /dev/twed0: No such file or directory This is a erroneous message. The actual problem is: 484 boot0cfg NAMI /dev/twed0 484 boot0cfg RET open -1 errno 1 Operation not permitted This is a known problem with certain MBR layouts. To work around this problem, set: sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16 then try your boot0cfg. There's a protection mechanism that sometimes gets confused by certain partition table layouts. Flag 16 disables that protection. I don't recommend running this unless you are explicitly trying to updating something in a partition table-like area; its very easy to destroy your system with the flag set! I booted from CD and ran the boot0cfg offline - however, this worked only on one server. I have two more identical servers that now just beep endlessly at the F1-prompt. I was told it is a geometry problem, but what else can I do? boot0cfg -o packet adX -- Doug White| FreeBSD: The Power to Serve [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.FreeBSD.org ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

5.4 and asus k8n nforce3 250
Dear all! I've installed 5.4 for amd64 on this asus mobo. Went just fine, but few things make me nervous. 1. Cannot see ethernet interface. There is RJ-45 port, but not in dmesg (attached). In manual says ic plus ip101 10/100 lan phy. Default on board is PnP on. How could I make OS to recognize the interface? Also, it has onboard lan boot rom, but doesn't change anything. 2. Some acpi error messages. Board has acpi 2.0 possibility. Should I turn it on? (See dmesg.) 3. Mouse is on after power down. On ps/2. I'll try it as usb. Probably some S tuning, default is S3. Maybe S1? 4. Xorg doesn't recognize ModLine option anymore. How could I change frequency in this situation? 85 Hz looks too much for my monitor. 5. I cannot find app for board and cpu tempe- rature reading. Peviously I used xmbmon. Is there some little app for this on k8n? Best regards Zoran Copyright (c) 1992-2005 The FreeBSD Project.

RE: 5.4 install disc1 will not find hard drive
-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of fbsd_user Sent: Saturday, May 14, 2005 12:54 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ORG Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: 5.4 install disc1 will not find hard drive Power management and APIC have been bios disabled since version FreeBSD 3.4 version so that is not the problem. I tried selecting safe option to boot and still get same error 'no hard disk found. My hard drive is an western digital 310100 on ata0 as master. When using this 5.4 install cd on other pc/ motherboard/ hard drive combos I get same error. I think there is something wrong with the build process of the disc1.iso file. I don't think there is anything wrong with the build process of disc1.iso. I think instead that someone made a change in the atapi driver that broke this. I have a Intel Desktop Motherboard VC820 that this exact thing happened to. In my case, I fortunately was running a Hipoint RAID card in it so the only thing that got wacked was the system now does not recognize that there is a CDROM on the secondary onboard IDE controller. Last week I had it running FreeBSD 4.11 just fine. (not on the RAID controller) I had assumed that using the RAID controller made it so that the onboard ATAPI controller had some problem, but after seeing this post it is clear that they broke the driver. DO you want to file a PR or should I? Ted ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
