Re: panic on 4.5-RELEASE
Once upon a Wed, Feb 13 2002, Jan L. Peterson hit keys in the following order: I've just installed 4.5-RELEASE on my new hard drive in an HP Omnibook 6000. Doing heavy disk activity combined with network activity results in a panic. I discovered this first while doing an installworld off of a nfs mounted /usr/src and /usr/obj. Some fiddling left me with a broken system and I had to re-install. On the new install, I built a kernel with DDB in it and then tried tarring /usr/ports from a nfs mounted filesystem to a local filesystem. Boom again. I might have had a similair problem. haven't looked into it any deeper yet, but it looks like UDP NFS mounts with 16384 make the NFS server's kernel crash hard. after i found a workaround, i didn't have chance to trace this bug. My situation was that i was copying a bunch of stuff from a linux machine, which had options for nfs mounts set to 16384 byte blocks. When i set them to 8192, FreeBSD didn't crash any more. hope this helps... martijn To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-stable in the body of the message
Re: ata and Asus P2B-S
Once upon a 16-11-2001, Chris Knight hit keys in the following order: controller as the primary device. CD1 on 4.3 boots successfully, but CD1 on 4.4 hangs immediately after detecting plip0. On the 4.3 boot, the line straight after plip0 is acd0. Disabling both IDE channels in the BIOS I ran into the same problems when trying to install the latest 4.4-STABLE snapshot, also on a P2B-S. After compiling a custom kernel for that machine, though, the problem disappeared. here's the config: machine i386 cpu I686_CPU ident P2B-S maxusers32 options NMBCLUSTERS=8192 #makeoptionsDEBUG=-g#Build kernel with gdb(1) debug symbols options INET#InterNETworking options FFS #Berkeley Fast Filesystem options FFS_ROOT#FFS usable as root device [keep this!] options SOFTUPDATES #Enable FFS soft updates support options UFS_DIRHASH options MFS #Memory Filesystem options NFS #Network Filesystem options PROCFS #Process filesystem options COMPAT_43 #Compatible with BSD 4.3 [KEEP THIS!] options USERCONFIG #boot -c editor options KTRACE #ktrace(1) support options SYSVSHM #SYSV-style shared memory options SYSVMSG #SYSV-style message queues options SYSVSEM #SYSV-style semaphores options P1003_1B#Posix P1003_1B real-time extensions options _KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING options _KPOSIX_VERSION=199309L options ICMP_BANDLIM#Rate limit bad replies device isa device pci # Floppy drives device fdc0at isa? port IO_FD1 irq 6 drq 2 device fd0 at fdc0 drive 0 # ATA and ATAPI devices device ata0at isa? port IO_WD1 irq 14 device ata1at isa? port IO_WD2 irq 15 device ata device atadisk # ATA disk drives options ATA_STATIC_ID #Static device numbering # SCSI Controllers device ahc # AHA2940 and onboard AIC7xxx devices # SCSI peripherals device scbus # SCSI bus (required) device da # SCSI direct access devices (aka disks) device pass# Passthrough device (direct SCSI access) # atkbdc0 controls both the keyboard and the PS/2 mouse device atkbdc0 at isa? port IO_KBD device atkbd0 at atkbdc? irq 1 flags 0x1 device psm0at atkbdc? irq 12 device vga0at isa? options VESA # splash screen/screen saver pseudo-device splash # syscons is the default console driver, resembling an SCO console device sc0 at isa? flags 0x100 options SC_HISTORY_SIZE=2000# number of history buffer lines options SC_ALT_MOUSE_IMAGE # simplified mouse cursor in text mode options SC_DISABLE_DDBKEY # disable `debug' key options SC_DISABLE_REBOOT # disable reboot key sequence options SC_MOUSE_CHAR=0x3 # char code for text mode mouse cursor options SC_NORM_ATTR=(FG_GREEN|BG_BLACK) options SC_NORM_REV_ATTR=(FG_YELLOW|BG_GREEN) options SC_KERNEL_CONS_ATTR=(FG_RED|BG_BLACK) options SC_KERNEL_CONS_REV_ATTR=(FG_BLACK|BG_RED) # Floating point support - do not disable. device npx0at nexus? port IO_NPX irq 13 # Power management support (see LINT for more options) device apm0at nexus? disable flags 0x20 # Advanced Power Management # Serial (COM) ports device sio0at isa? port IO_COM1 flags 0x10 irq 4 device sio1at isa? port IO_COM2 irq 3 device ppc0at isa? irq 7 device ppbus device plip device ppi # PCI Ethernet NICs that use the common MII bus controller code. device miibus device xl # Pseudo devices - the number indicates how many units to allocated. pseudo-device bpf # Berkeley packet filter pseudo-device loop# Network loopback pseudo-device ether # Ethernet support pseudo-device sl 1 # Kernel SLIP pseudo-device ppp 1 # Kernel PPP pseudo-device tun # Packet tunnel. pseudo-device pty # Pseudo-ttys (telnet etc) pseudo-device md # Memory disks To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-stable in the body of the message
