AJAX not a particular server-side technology, but rather a set of
techniques and tools for building interactive web applications.  
Most of

the "magic" happens on the client side.

Depending on what programming language you're using on the server  
side,

there may be AJAX specific modules or frameworks. For example there
appear to at least be some perl AJAX frameworks in our ports tree.  
Other

languages may have similar tools.

Re: OpenBSD AJAX

2006-10-23 Thread Floor Terra

I have never used AJAX, but I think you could use it with OpenBSD.
AJAX stands for Asynchronous Javascript And XML. Javascript runs  
clientside and to serve the xml part you can use virtually any  
scripting language (php, python, perl, ruby.) and most of them  
run on OpenBSD. You should have no problems at al.

Huge PF/BGP setups with OpenBSD

2006-10-23 Thread dormando
Yo all,

I'm finally starting a project where I need to build a front-end network 
that'll allow us to push up to (eventually) 10 gigabits of outbound internet 
traffic, made up of non-jumbo frame packets. Currently we push between 150,000 
and 200,000pps. Our current firewalls running 3.8 i386 and em cards are maxing 
out now.

I have gigabit fiber ethernet feeds, and can get 10 gigabit drops as well. I 
need redundancy, I'd like to run BGP. We use PF round-robin for high speed L4 
LB, but nothing else too special.

Everything else is open right now; I'll be buying multiple hardware platforms, 
CPUs, motherboards, network cards, and testing them all thoroughly for packet 
rates with/without PF rulesets. My question is; how the hell do I scale this? 
What good approaches are there to getting a front end network to scale, be 
redundant, maybe run BGP, and not be a huge pain in the ass to manage?

I'd much rather continue sending resources to OpenBSD instead of shelling out 
for a pair of huge, expensive routers. Any good input is greatly appreciated; 
trolling not so much. Yes I've read all of the PF docs, the PF series on 
undeadly, the OpenBGP slides, etc.

Thanks,

What would you do with field defect rate predictions?

2006-10-23 Thread Paul Luo Li
Hey 

I have been examining OpenBSD bugs and have been looking for ways of
predicting the field defect rate, that is, predicting at the time of release
the number of field defects in each time interval after the release. I am
brainstorming possible applications for this research. 

I was wondering what you all think OpenBSD can do (or do better) if it had
field defect rate predictions. Your input would really give my research a
reality check. 

Thank you very much for your time.

Dell 2650 with unsupported Adaptec PERC 3/Di RAID controller?

2006-10-23 Thread K Kadow

I've inherited a half dozen Dell PowerEdge 2650s with the PERC 3/Di
Adaptec RAID controllers, mostly running old OpenBSD with the 'aac'
RAID controller enabled.

I'd like to put as little money (and time) into these as possible
while still bringing them up to the latest supported OpenBSD release,
and keeping the Dell support contracts in place.  I'm willing to
consider trading these in, but I don't see affordable rackmount
servers from Dell or Sun with redundant power and hardware RAID.

These servers have been up and running for years (as in 1000 day
uptimes) without major issues, and with no complaints about
performance or corruption.  How big a risk am I taking by reinstalling
these machines with 4.0 and a custom 'aac' kernel?

Has anybody successfully paid or pressured Dell to swap the PE2650
'aac' motherboards for a revision with the AMI MegaRAID embedded RAID
chipset?  Or added a PCI card for RAID using the "split backplane"
feature of the PE2650?

If the latter is the best option, any recommendation for an
OpenBSD-friendly maker of standalone U160/U320 hardware RAID
controllers for PCI?  Something orderable from CDW or another major
retailer would be a plus.


Thanks,

Kevin

(P.S. One reason for specifying hardware RAID is to have a system with
a strong chance of surviving (and/or rebooting after) a single failed
drive.  Other reasons are primarily political, same reasons we have
only Sun and Dell hardware, and Dell "Gold" service contracts.)

I wanted to reply relevant sections but your message is quite long, so 
excuse my lack of netiquette but I'll braindump.


First off all,
"net.inet.tcp.recvspace" and ".sendspace" has nothing to do in your test 
scenario as soon as the box only routes packets. They're only related 
with the TCP stack of the box and as no effect on forwarded packets.


You have nice numbers such as total bandwidth and payload size. It's not 
hard to calculate the packet rate but it only matters on THE packet 
rate. 50,000 packets/sec can easily kill an OpenBSD box even with MP 
kernel, employing I/O APIC.


I don't know if the em(4) driver fully employs MAC chip's interrupt 
coalesing capabilities but it's mostly imported from FreeBSD counterpart 
which is contributed and maintained by Intel AFAIK.


Although I don't have any sound explanation for your "%100 idle but 
still freezing" case, generally the problem is with the interrupt storm.


I would suggest increasing the interface queue length but it won't help 
if it's freezing. Anyway, the sysctl is "net.inet.ip.ifq.maxlen".
Default value is 50. 250 seems like a safe value for many em(4)s. This 
would decrease the collisions on the interface because of the queue 
capacity exhaustion.


It's a complicated issue. It's not black and white. The problem resides 
in the hardware, in the driver itself and in the kernel (the way of 
handling packets, interrupt, network, etc.)

And unfortunately there's no simple solution for none of them.
Just adding polling support to the kernel won't make things outperform 
magically. AFAIK, we do not have access to em(4) hardware/driver 
developer's manuals. (Is it true Brad?). So it's really hard to make 
driver better... Last but not least, Intel's cards are not that awesome. 
There exists much cheaper but less bloated and good performing MAC 
chipsets around. Many of them are custom designs for high end networking 
gear, which are also powered by ASICs.
SysKonnect is promising and commercially available too. I remember good 
comments about sk(4) from Henning.


Sorry but we have to accept the fact... We're trying to handle 
exceptional  I/O loads on machines which were not designed to handle 
that much. Especially the x86 platform. Rumors about amd64 to handle 
better I/O didn't hold for me. My tests show tiny regressions.


I had similar problems with many different setups and tried many things 
such as making the NICs _share_ the PCI interrupt. UP and MP kernels, 
ifq lengths, different chipsets... The only major regressions were from 
MP kernel (employing I/O APIC) and using sensible ifq lengths.


Good luck in your quest. Let us know if you manage to make things better.

Hello misc@,

Quite a few people sent me emails about my earier instructions, I posted

They are far from perfect, but it works reasonably well (for me).
With the instructions you can either create a CD or DVD.
I'm too tired to test on amd64 at the moment, but it _should_ work
exactly the same (that is one of the reasons I love OpenBSD, no as much
pitfalls as in other OS).

I have read that people have tested with *very* high load with success...

I am not the best expertbut you don't say anything about the OpenBSD 
config. At high load you probably have to change net.inet.ip.ifq.maxlen, 
kern.maxclusters, net.inet.tcp.recvspace, net.inet.tcp.sendspace, 
net.inet.tcp.rfc1323, kern.somaxconn among some other things... If you for 
example run out of "maxclusters" the server will freeze (as you mentioned)... 
Try OpenBSD FAQ ;-)

After 3.8, major performance gains regarding cpu/interrupt load has been done 
in the em driver among many other fixes in the driver. Can't see you even 
mention the OpenBSD version you use

And another thing... SMP kernel wont help if (but you don't) you run PF as it 
can't make use of SMP. Maybe it could be worse... But I don't know for sure.

When it comes to the NIC;s, many on the list will probably tell you the marvel 
chip is a good one. But you probably know that if you read the list. But it 
will probably wont help you if you don't tune the server right anyway...

Sorry for my ignorance but why Ultrasparc III?  I taught Niagara was

The issue that Mark Kettenis is working on has to do with getting the 
US3 running at full speed.  Currently, if you are running on a US3, 
you aren't running at full speed because the cache is disabled.  There 
are likely fewer than 5 people on the planet running Mark's patches 
and I'm one of them.


Small form-factor US3 machines (1 or 2U) are currently much more 
interesting to many developers and users, both from a price and 
availability standpoint.  Not everyone wants to run an E450 in their 
living room.


Given that Niagara is multi-core and multi-threaded and we don't have 
SMP support yet for sparc64, it makes sense to solidify the current 
sparc64 offering first.  That, and I won't mention Theo's thoughts on 
the "virtual machine of sorts" that is Niagara...

Intel Server Adapters (NICs)

2006-10-23 Thread Sylwester S. Biernacki
Hello,

  about a month ago I wrote I'm glad about em(4) driver which works
  pretty well on few of my boxes. However I need to change my
  opinion... after what I saw today in the lab:

  We have connected pretty well testing box - Navtel InterWatch
  (www.navtelcom.com).
  It has one 6 slots and in one of them it has 2 GigE TX ports.
  We've configured the following scenario:

  1)
  Navtel port A --- em0 --- em1 --- Navtel port B

  2)
  Navtel port A --- em2 --- em3 --- Navtel port B

  em0 and em1 are built-in mainboard:
em0 at pci4 dev 0 function 0 "Intel PRO/1000 PT (82571EB)" rev 0x06: apic 2 int 
16 (irq 10),
em1 at pci4 dev 0 function 1 "Intel PRO/1000 PT (82571EB)" rev 0x06: apic 2 int 
17 (irq 11),

  and em2 and em3 are Intel Dual Port Server Adapter on PCI-e (4x):
em2 at pci5 dev 0 function 0 "Intel PRO/1000MT (82573E)" rev 0x03: apic 2 int 
19 (irq 10),
em3 at pci6 dev 0 function 0 "Intel PRO/1000MT (82573L)" rev 0x00: apic 2 int 
16 (irq 11),

  pf is disabled, between em0 and em1 whole traffic goes through
  kernel routing process (Navtel port A and em0 in one /24 network,
  and em1 and Navtel port B are in different /24 network)

  sysctl tcp.send & receive space is turned to 65535

  When we generate 500Mbps of traffic (1434 bytes in ethernet, which
  gives 1400 bytes of payload in TCP) from port A to B and from B to A
  (two streams, each of 500Mbps) everything works pretty well on
  PT chips and MT chips.

  When we change payload to 64bytes (called IP killer :P) and put it
  in scenario 1) machine gets freeze and no packet is comming to port
  B of Navtel device. It's rather normal, there are no ASIC-based
  boxes which can work with such traffic :)

  What was strange, when we connected Navtel to em2 and em3 which is one
  PCI-e (4x) dual-port card and started to generate traffic from port
  A to B and from B to A machine has restarted about a second after test
  started.

  We've change sysctl values to move machine to debugger if anything
  goes bad, but it didn't change anything. I think that it's somehow
  connected to chipsets of that cards and mainboard bridges which are
  responsible for transferring packets through the mainboard.

  Anyway, I started to feel badly about Intel...

  Second test was to generate 900Mbps of pure IP traffice (payload
  1400 bytes) from port A to B and second stream from B to A.
  In scenario 1 machine got freeze and hasn't forward any packet from
  em0 to em1. When we changed em0/1 to em2/3 all traffic is comming
  from port A to B without any loss and machine gets 75% interrupt on
  uniprocessor kernel.

  So, we've changed to MP kernel and... scenario 1) hasn't changed at all
  (freeze all the time), and scenario 2 got 100% idle and 0%
  interrupts on both CPUs (strange, I thought that it'll be 1/2 of
  previous 75% :P). Anyway, when we connected anything to em0/1 ports
  during that test and generate more than 100Mbps (bittwist software
  packet generator run at the second box) our test machine got freeze
  again...

  What else? Kernel is taken from CVS -current tree.

  After all these tests I'm changing my opinion about Intel cards,
  especially when I read that PT chipsets are Intel's newest "baby".

  Does anyone got simmilar problems ?
  Maybe there are other ways to tune NICs to work under such traffic
  (buffers on NIC?). I'm not an expert in Intel network cards so any
  idea will be appreciated :)
  
  Maybe you can tell about other chipsets that works fine under such
  "heavy" traffic ?

gdb misprints arguments passed to regcomp(3) library call

2006-10-23 Thread Matthew R. Dempsky
I came across a the below peculiarity in gdb: the third argument to

I see this behavior on 3.9 and a now rather of date 4.0 snapshot (at

how's net.ip.ifq.drops? if it's showing many drops then bump
net.inet.ifq.maxlen (maybe in the 100-300 range but you'll need to
test to find what works best).

maybe worth trying a uniprocessor kernel too.

Most likely you have hit the ulimits issue again.

Ierrs on dual firewalls

2006-10-23 Thread Gunga Din

We have two OpenBSD firewalls running in CARP redundant mode, one
active, one standby.  The problem we've been seeing for a while
appears to be packet loss at our firewall once we reach or surpass
around 100Mbps / 12k pps.  I've seen this show up on both 3.9 stock
and the download of 4.0.  It is replicable on both boxes.

Here's what shows up on the interfaces once we hit the above
threshold.  em2 is the outside interface, em4 is the inside interface.
Note the number of Ierrs; that is what increments on either or both
interfaces once we hit the above traffic/pps level.  We occasionally
will get Oerrs as well, but not as common.

$ netstat -idq
NameMtu   Network Address  Ipkts IerrsOpkts
Oerrs Colls Drop

em2 150000:04:23:c2:4c:2a 3191117038  4335
2758336584 0 00

em4 150000:04:23:c2:45:5e 2941667842  2536
3337201967 0 00

Also, when the above happens, if you run 'netstat -I  -w
1', you will see the packet rate drop from 12-13k pps to down to 3-5k
pps

We purchased machines with PCI-X riser card and Intel PRO-MT dual port
Gigabit cards, so I was hoping that previous posts referencing 250k+
pps would have been an indicator of performance, and that we should at
least be able to get 50k+ pps or so without an issue.

We are running PF and doing NAT.  Filter ruleset is about 120 lines,
NAT ruleset about 70.

The problem has duplicated itself on both firewalls (it follows
regardless which one is the master.  The two GigE interfaces on the
firewalls are connected to a Cisco 2970, and none of the Cisco switch
interfaces are showing any kinds of errors at all.  The patch cables
are all brand new Cat6.  Duplex/speed is set to auto everywhere,
negotiating properly to 1000/full.

This is causing headaches because we have video conferencing that uses
UDP going on during peak traffic production, and dropping of packets
is causing video performance that is not acceptable to our users.

We've verified patch cables from the firewalls to the switch, as well
as the routers upstream and downstream (no errors on any of those
interfaces).

This is right now (currently doing about 95Mb, 11k pps), just saw
about 500 Ierrs:

$ netstat -m
787 mbufs in use:
   782 mbufs allocated to data
   2 mbufs allocated to packet headers
   3 mbufs allocated to socket names and addresses

You could setup a PF rule with pass log on all tftp traffic, then
periodically run reports against the pflog file.  I do that to see what
boxes are talking to an IP address that used to be our main NTP server.

spamd statistics

2006-10-23 Thread Will H. Backman

Some interesting spamd statistics gathered from /var/log/daemon:
From 8am Oct 22 to noon Oct 23:
19112 "connected" messages from spamd, which means connections from IPs 
that are not in the whitelist.
2247 "inbound" messages from spamlogd, which mean connection from IPs 
that are already on the whitelist.
That means only about 10% of the connections coming into our mail server 
are from whitelist servers.


Thank you spamd for stopping the 90% crap!

Spamd has been running for 76 days, and spamdb has 32752 entries.  We 
only have about 100 mail accounts on our server.




Hang on Reboot, Halt

2006-10-23 Thread Paul Barbeau
I am having an interesting problem with the following machine.  I was
wondering if anyone else has this problem or can help me fix it.  I have
tried it on 3.8 and also 3.9 and swap in and out drives, mother boards,
ram etc and still have the same problem.  What happened is when I issue
a "reboot" or a "halt" command it hangs.  It goes "Syncing Disks ...
done" "rebooting" and then hang until I go and turn the machine off with
the switch.  If I put window on this machine a reboot works, Any ideas?

Is that the only way?


tftp-proxy is for making connections to a tftp server on behalf
of a tftp client. currently there is no syslog capability for tftpd.
tcpdump(8) -l with the right filters and logger(1) should get you
where you need to go.

Usually BIOS serial redirection stops after the bootloader,
so you have to 'set tty com0' (either typed or, if you're booting
from PXE you can place it in $TFTPROOT/etc/boot.conf)


But you can't do that if you boot from CD for example to do a fresh 
install. I was trying to see if I could do that for future needs before 
installing it in the field. But no success. (:<


As for regular operation, I will try this and see if that does any 
difference.



The ethernet management is probably asf/ipmi and I guess it would
be on one of the broadcom nics, bge(4) doesn't support this at present
(was added for a short while but removed again, if_bge.c 1.104-1.106)


It is the bge1 interface actually on this box.


4 ethernet, 2 card slots, LOM improvements... sounds like it's a lot
more useful machine.


So far looks like a very nice server. Front loaded SAS drives, could do 
RAID as well, (don't know if that works well or not, didn't try yet), 
dual core CPU and a bunch more of nice features.


I wasn't sure OpenBSD was going to work, so I took a chance, got one for 
testing and see. So, far, pretty nice!


A few things don't look right in DMESG, but nothing that is a show 
stopper yet anyway.


Just this management interface, either serial, or Ethernet that doesn't 
work. Would be nice, but I can live without. It's not to much of a 
drive, about 40 minutes at worst.


But I have to say that I much prefer that box to my IBM 326e or HP 145 
G2 or G1 so far.


I have nothing bad to say about it yet anyway. Minor things, that's all.

Sorry for my ignorance but why Ultrasparc III?  I taught Niagara was based on 
Ultrasparc II, and there is no talk ofproblems about UltrasparcII on

"The Niagara chip is comprised of eight four-threaded UltraSparc-II cores,

http://www.itjungle.com/breaking/bn080206-story01.html - 3rd paragraph



The issue that Mark Kettenis is working on has to do with getting the US3 
running at full speed.  Currently, if you are running on a US3, you aren't 
running at full speed because the cache is disabled.  There are likely 
fewer than 5 people on the planet running Mark's patches and I'm one of 
them.


Small form-factor US3 machines (1 or 2U) are currently much more 
interesting to many developers and users, both from a price and 
availability standpoint.  Not everyone wants to run an E450 in their 
living room.


Given that Niagara is multi-core and multi-threaded and we don't have SMP 
support yet for sparc64, it makes sense to solidify the current sparc64 
offering first.  That, and I won't mention Theo's thoughts on the "virtual 
machine of sorts" that is Niagara...


Of course, interested parties with large budgets and desire to see this 
work happen are more than free to contact me to have a project charter

I don't know if these locations can be hardcoded at compile time, but
from the stock OpenBSD OpenVPN package that I use (2.0.6) it seems
that files will be read/written relative to the CWD when the process
was started. I usually specify an absolute path for the
'ifconfig-pool-persist' and 'status' parameters so that files are
written to /var/db and /var/log.

Yes, just specify the full path in the config file. Also, OpenVPN

Trouble compiling JDK 1.5 on recent snapshot

2006-10-23 Thread Greg Thomas

I'm running through the process of getting Java installed on this T40
laptop and have run into a problem.  I'm following the FAQ and trying
1.5 this time.  I last successfully installed the 1.4 JDK when I was
running OpenBSD 3.8 on my laptop but I had compiled it on my server.
I just updated ports this morning but only see an update in the
systrace policies for 1.3 and 1.4.

Hardware info is below.  Am I doing something wrong?  Should I do 1.4
instead of 1.5?

Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Could not create the Java virtual machine.

I don't know if these locations can be hardcoded at compile time, but
from the stock OpenBSD OpenVPN package that I use (2.0.6) it seems
that files will be read/written relative to the CWD when the process
was started. I usually specify an absolute path for the
'ifconfig-pool-persist' and 'status' parameters so that files are
written to /var/db and /var/log.

OpenVPN server writes to /etc

2006-10-23 Thread Heinrich Rebehn

Hi list,

I have openvpn-2.0.6 running as server on OpenBSD-current as of 9-OCT-2006.
I noticed that it is creating files in /etc/openvpn:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] [~] # ls -l /etc/openvpn
total 48
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   3820 Oct 11 14:27 antvpn.crt

-r--r--r--  1 root  bin 9976 Oct 11 15:51 server.conf

It is the files "ipp.txt" and "openvpn-status.log".
My question: is it good habit at all to write to /etc?
Since my router is running from USB-flash i normally have the root fs 
readonly and only /var, /tmp and /dev on a ramdisk.

Shouldn't openvpn write to /var/db or /var/log?

I setup my OpenBSD machine as a standalone irc server as well as a bitlbee 
gateway. I think bitlbee has trampled all over my irc setup. :-)

But it was very simple to do since right now I care two hoots about security. 

The config file is attached. It just works but I am damn sure there are plenty 
of gaping security holes in it.

Hope this helps.

The P: lines tell you which all lines ircd listens for irc connections.

Good luck!

Usually BIOS serial redirection stops after the bootloader,
so you have to 'set tty com0' (either typed or, if you're booting
from PXE you can place it in $TFTPROOT/etc/boot.conf)

The ethernet management is probably asf/ipmi and I guess it would
be on one of the broadcom nics, bge(4) doesn't support this at present
(was added for a short while but removed again, if_bge.c 1.104-1.106)

4 ethernet, 2 card slots, LOM improvements... sounds like it's a lot
more useful machine.

tftp logging

what other choice could be done, or not logging for this.


I am trying to log the traffic to syslog and so far, my research still

Is that the only way?

Ok in order to bring things to a certain logical conclusion I will get a little 
bit of context to all this.

I have been having problems with my md5 and sha1 checksums not matching. I mean 
the shell commands. And also scp transfers used to abort with a "Corrupted MAC 
on input" error.

All these problems on my FreeBSD 6.0 box. Then someone else in China had a 
problem connecting to his FreeBSD box in San Diego. So I was investigating that 
and found that the kex protocol of ssh was not completing. It was crapping out 
at different places at different times.

And I could only go so far as DH params. Well I am not a math guru. :-)

However once the FreeBSD OpenSSL was reinstalled all these problems disappeared 
magically.

You can clearly see what I am getting at. That OpenSSL is the root cause for  
all this.

That is why I tried to correlate what you were saying with this.

But now it is apparent that this problem and my problem don't exactly coincide.

My apologies to OpenBSD devs and in particular Darren and Damien if I sounded 
rude.

Hope this clears things up a bit.

According to the same page, the ahc driver is not available on floppyB
and floppyC.



Someone, possibly Nick, awhile back posted the reasoning why the (A),
(B), and (C) footnotes say which floppies the drivers are NOT on.
Could anyone refresh my memory why that is?  I couldn't find it in the
archives.  Also, maybe at the beginning of the supported hardware
section there could be a note make sure that we look down at the
footnotes, especially if one is having problems with the boot floppy?

Sorry I regretted using these exact words.

What I meant to say was that this does not explain everything.

Let me leave it at that. 

If I don't understand something most likely my understanding is to take the 
blame. :-)

All is well that ends well.

Thanks to Damien and Darren for clearing certain things.

And to you of course for letting the list know this.

Since Theo is Canadian, shouldn't it be "Theo PM!" ?
