samba build failure on 6-STABLE
I'm posting this to freebsd-stable even though it is a problem with a port, because the port itself has not changed, but a rebuild fails (on a system and with a configuration that worked before my most recent system updates). Basically my problem is that the current Samba3 (samba-3.0.28,1) won't build on a recent 6-STABLE system (I noticed it with sources csup'd 24 April, and it continues with sources csup'd today, 1 May). The strange thing is that this is a version of samba that has previously built successfully, on the machine and with the configuration that is now failing. (I was attempting to rebuild because I saw some strange library errors.) This at least suggests to me that the problem is _not_ due to something changing with Samba, but to some other change that is being reflected in the Samba build. The system in question is built from sources csup'd today (1 May 2008), with all installed ports current as of today. The same Samba did build successfully with a source and ports tree csup'd on 7 March 2008. As a test to see if there is some problem with the ports dependencies, I've tried a 'portupgrade -fR samba'; all of the dependencies built fine, but then I got the same error when attempting to build Samba itself. It is not definitive, but this suggests to me that this is not a ports problem (per se), but a kernel/world problem. This latter is highlighted by the fact that Samba builds without error on a system with sources csup'd on 17 April. That is, if I take the exact same system on which the build fails, revert my world/kernel to a build from 17 April (leaving everything else exactly the same), then the error disappears and Samba builds successfully. The actual error is below. Any ideas are welcome.

The problem shows up as a 10ms "pause" in processing, usually packet stamping and forwarding by a user level process. This is due to the fact that vmstat calls the vmtotal() routine which in turn does a whole lot of locking. The vmtotal call locks and walks the VM object list twice in a mark and sweep operation. So, the question is, "What is the right way to fix this?" I could remove the locking since the O_ACTIVE bit is not used by any other routine besides vmtotal, but I'm not too happy about that. The relevant code can be found in src/sys/vm/vm_meter.c in vmtotal(). Thoughts? Can you _really_ remove the locking? I don't think that would be safe if the list is being manipulated, but I haven't checked. Typically one uses a sentinal to get around such problems. Basically insert a dummy object that no one should touch other than you, then drop the lock periodically and insert it into the list, then resume. net80211 uses a scan generation # to walk it's node lists.

FWIW, I've had problems with 6.2 not rebooting reliably on several SMP P4 Xeon systems; the problem seems to be that sometimes while dumping it either freezes completely or double-faults and hangs at that point until physically reset. This problem appeared simultaneously on several SMP servers when they were upgraded to 6.2, after they had run reliably for years on FreeBSD 4.x. Adding insult to injury, when it does dump successfully, I don't reliably get an image saved in /var/crash. (And if I did, it doesn't appear that it would do me any good as nobody is interested any longer in problems with 6.2.) Thankfully, via a combination of adding RAM and tuning kernel parameters I eventually got them to where they'll reliably stay up for reasonably long stretches, certainly more than the 20 days uptime I was getting when I first upgraded them. -- Clifton -- Clifton Royston -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] / [EMAIL PROTECTED] President - I and I Computing * http://www.iandicomputing.com/ Custom programming, network design, systems and network consulting services ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Draw your own conclusions. Well, my latest encounter with "Netgear GA311 Rev.
