routing question: Kernel being too helpful
Hi, I'm trying to set up a PC with two (gig)ether cards as a test system in which a router/firewall/what have you/ could be inserted between the two ether cards. Then I want to send various lumps of test traffic between the two. Unfortunatly Linux is being a little too helpful - whatever the routing tables are set as, any packets intended for one card just hops over internally and doesn't actually go over the wire. Two machines were originally going to be used but due to physical space constraints that has had to be given up. Where is the short-circuit routing done which does this? (I understand it is good and normal behaviour - I just want to turn it off).

css hang; somewhere between test12 and test13pre4ac2
Hi, Somewhere between test12 and test13pre4ac2 (sheesh the version numbers.) CSS on ATAPI DVD ROM drives has stopped working. Playing a CSS disc (using xine) causes a complete system hang (machine doesn't ping - sysrq-b still works) on test13pre4ac2. On test12 it is still OK. This is on an Alpha LX164.

shmat returning NULL with 0 sized segment
Hi, I'm trying to debug a weird problem with Xine - its screwing up its use of shared memory for regions I haven't sussed yet. One odd consequence is that it has apparently successfully managed to allocate a 0 byte chunk of shared memory; shmat is then called with shmaddr=0 and shmflg=0; the result of shmat is 0 Is this what shmat is supposed to do in this (admittedly odd) circumstance? The error behaviour is defined in the man page as returning -1 on error.

Yep one disc (Scanners) - it is fine - hence my reason for beleiving it is a CSSism (although I guess CSS makes other demands on the UDF code).

Re: css hang; somewhere between test12 and test13pre4ac2
Hi Jens, Thanks for the patch; unfortunatly at the moment I can neither confirm or deny whether the patch works - since the damn thing won't crash on me with or without the patch - I suspect it depends on system mood. But I have a PDA logging console so if it happens I should catch it.

Hi Christoph, I think I've come to the conclusion that Xine does not in the case I've found, rely on this - it is a separate bug related to Xv telling xine that it needs 0 bytes.

2.4.0-prerel-ac1: Looking good on Alpha
Hi,
2.4.0-prerelease with the Alan Cox new-year-special ac1 patches is
looking good for me on Alpha (LX164).
My standard build went just fine; so I decided to push it; I've built in
IPv6, a load of USB stuff, SCSI stuff, and a load of other stuff; loaded
them all as modules, all loaded OK and unloaded OK - haven't actually
stressed any of it.
Just two (1 and a half?) problems:
1) When doing make modules_install:
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/2.4.0-prerelease-ac1/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.o
depmod: init_task_union
2) When I tried to play an audio CD this morning I got:
Jan 1 12:55:48 tardis kernel: hdb: irq timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy }
Jan 1 12:55:54 tardis kernel: hdb: ATAPI reset complete
Jan 1 12:56:04 tardis kernel: hdb: irq timeout: status=0xc0 { Busy }
Jan 1 12:56:10 tardis kernel: hdb: ATAPI reset complete
Jan 1 12:56:20 tardis kernel: hdb: irq timeout: status=0xc0 { Busy }
Jan 1 12:56:20 tardis kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:40 (hdb),
sector 0
Jan 1 12:56:20 tardis kernel: hdb: status timeout: status=0xc0 { Busy }
Jan 1 12:56:20 tardis kernel: hdb: drive not ready for command
Jan 1 12:56:27 tardis kernel: hdb: ATAPI reset complete
Ejected the CD, put it back in and its fine, so I actually suspect the
drive was just having a bad day but its best just to list there was the
problem. (This on a CMD646 on the motherboard).
Dave

2.4.0-test9 boot failure (Linux/Alpha, EIDE CMD646)
Hi, 2.4.0-test9 failed to boot on my LX164 Alpha system; 2.4.0-test8 works fine. It looses interrupts in the IDE probes; it is a CMD646 controller and what appears to be happening is that it is getting the wrong IRQs; under 2.4.0-test8 we see: Oct 7 18:19:57 tardis kernel: CMD646: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 58 Oct 7 18:19:57 tardis kernel: CMD646: chipset revision 1 Oct 7 18:19:57 tardis kernel: CMD646: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later Oct 7 18:19:57 tardis kernel: CMD646: chipset revision 0x01, MultiWord DMA Limited, IRQ workaround enabled Oct 7 18:19:57 tardis kernel: ide0: BM-DMA at 0x8000-0x8007, BIOS settings: hda:pio, hdb:DMA Oct 7 18:19:57 tardis kernel: ide1: BM-DMA at 0x8008-0x800f, BIOS settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:DMA Oct 7 18:19:57 tardis kernel: hdb: , ATAPI CDROM drive Oct 7 18:19:57 tardis kernel: ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx Oct 7 18:19:57 tardis kernel: hdc: IBM-DPTA-373420, ATA DISK drive Oct 7 18:19:57 tardis kernel: hdd: MATSHITADVD-ROM SR-8582, ATAPI CDROM drive Oct 7 18:19:57 tardis kernel: ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14 Oct 7 18:19:57 tardis kernel: ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15 On 2.4.0-test9 I can't easily get a log saved; however it looks like its saying that both ide0 and ide1 are on irq 21 and then complains that it is loosing them. It is not unusual for PCI devices on Alpha to have IRQs > 16 (indeed my ether is on 17). .config on request for anyone interested.

Losing a keystroke or two?
Hi, I maybe going mad (or it may be too late) - but I've been starting X, quitting and restarting - and there are a couple of times over the last day where I could have sworn that I pressed return on the startx and had to hit return again. This is 2.4.1-ac2 with XFree 4.0.2 on Alpha. OK - it might be just going mad; but I'm fairly sure its loosing a key there.

Hmm nope - /proc/bus/pci has two entries '00' and devices
Devices has 5 lines in it; corresponding to the real 5 devices.
The 00 directory has 5 files in it.
Hmm - ah - cancel the report - I've just got pciutils 2.1.8 down and it is
now happy. Should there be a version ref for pciutils in
Documentation/Changes?
