If you are really annoyed by the messages, you may increase 'machdep.rtc_save_period' sysctl value to something larger. Default is 1,800 seconds or 30 minutes. Also, you can completely disable it by setting it to zero or 'machdep.disable_rtc_set' to non-zero value but I would not recommend it. Still, it doesn't explain why you are seeing the message more often, however. :-( Jung-uk Kim ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
Re: ts_to_ct flood on 8.1-STABLE
Jeremy, Thanks for the quick response. The source/responsible code for the printing is in function clock_ts_to_ct() in: src/sys/kern/subr_clock.c I took a look at the code in an attempt to divine the reason for the frequent messages, without success. Any idea why I see so many? I'm not aware of any special timing related configuration. I do run ntpd, of course. In examples I've found, others seem to get just the one ts_to_ct message. 52 #define ct_debug bootverbose Are your systems booting verbosely? By default, yes. I'd like to keep it that way without having to hack the source. Is there another option? -- -Andrew J.

The source/responsible code for the printing is in function
clock_ts_to_ct() in:
src/sys/kern/subr_clock.c
181 void
182 clock_ts_to_ct(struct timespec *ts, struct clocktime *ct)
183 {
...
214 if (ct_debug) {
215 printf("ts_to_ct(%ld.%09ld) = ",
216 (long)ts->tv_sec, (long)ts->tv_nsec);
217 print_ct(ct);
218 printf("\n");
219 }
So what's ct_debug?
52 #define ct_debug bootverbose
Are your systems booting verbosely?

ts_to_ct flood on 8.1-STABLE
Since installing 8.1-RC2 and now on up-to-date RELENG_8 I am frequently getting kern.crit messages like ts_to_ct(1281661818.743348859) = [2010-08-13 01:10:18] and have been unable so far to determine their origin or purpose. I saw no such messages while running 7.x or earlier releases. AFAICT the system[1] is running fine. Athlon XP, 2GB, nVidia mobo and GPU, Intel and Realtek NICs, various ATA and USB disks all in a custom kernel. I've posted details of the system configuration[2]. Advice would be appreciated.
