Denverton CPU on FreeBSD

2017-08-16 Thread Cassiano Peixoto
Hi there,

Is someone playing with Denverton CPU On FreeBSD?

I'm trying to use serial console on FreeBSD with Denverton CPU but doesn't
work.

I can see the boot process but it stops and I do not have the login prompt.
My keyboard doesn't answer as well.

I tried it with FreeBSD 10, 11 and 12-CURRENT. Same configuration is
working with Rangeley CPU.

Any help is welcome.

Thanks.

Nothing to do with yearistype /per se/. Most likely you are booted into a
securelevel that forbids whatever chflags operation was attempted on that
filesystem.

Thank you for your answer Julien.
Unfortunately, I'm not sure at all how to reproduce the issue.
I have other servers which are 100% identical to this one, same workload,
same some-months uptime, but they did not trigger the bug yet.

If other network stack experts (I'm not) agree with your analysis,
we could then certainly go further with D8211 / r307551.

One thing that perhaps might help :
# netstat -an | grep TIME_WAIT$ | wc -l
468

Note that due to this running bug, sendmail has lots of difficulties to send 
outgoing mails.
As soon as I run the above netstat command, I receive a lot of stacked mails 
(more than 20 this time).
As if netstat was able to somehow help...

Number of TIME_WAIT connections however does not decrease, but increases.

Which should then never be triggered :)
Good idea I think !

Thank you again !
