everything works without and further 'tinkering'

Why does GENERIC kernel for OpenBSD 4.8 and 4.9 not support software RAID

[Nico Kadel-Garcia]

I've been using the very helpful notes at
http://www.eclectica.ca/howto/openbsd-software-raid-howto.php, which
works, but does document needing to build a new kernel to enable
software RAID. (I included GENERIC.MP in my GENERIC.MPRAID
configuration: it's a multi-core machine.) But I had a fascinating
chat with another engineer, who I suspect has worked more with OpenBSD
than I have, who is very surprised at this requirement. He pointed out
that GENERIC is normally the "kitchen sink" kernel, with everything
possible enabled.

I've checked the source, and I see where the RAID is disabled in the
GENERIC kernel, but would like to know why. Is there a significant
performance or reliability risk with that feature enabled? I've not
found anything in the archives that explains this, although it's
*awfully* hard to find useful information with such generic keywords
as "software RAID".

you want softraid(4), which is, surprise! in GENERIC.

Issue after changing IP address of master and backup firewall

[James Chase]

Hi,

I recently upgraded to 4.9 and everything seemed OK between my master 
and backup firewalls setup with CARP and state sharing. The firewalls 
were setup strange, the backup had the internal IP of .25 and the master 
had .26. I wanted to swap this so that the master firewall IP would be 
in numerical order, so I changed the hostname.x file and rebooted them 
both at the same time.


After that I had continuous issues with the backup firewall. It just 
kept restarting, so I switched the IP's back. The problem continued, and 
I found that it would only boot without crashing if I let it boot with 
the network cables unplugged and then plugged them in after it was up. 
However, trying to connect to that firewall with SSH causes the system 
to crash immediately (it often makes a click sound right when you do it 
and then hard reboots). It seemed like it functioned when I tested the 
carp failover though!


I brought the firewall home and it works fine away from that network. 
The crash dumps don't appear to be understandable by the everyday man. 
Is there some sort of disk caching or other area that could cause the IP 
change to have created a problem? I only changed the hostname file for 
the interfaces I wanted to swap (internal interface and the pfsync 
interface) so I'm not sure where the problem would be.

The one of the many benefits of OpenBSD is its superb documentation
especially when comparing with lack of that in Linux and other systems
which tries to supply that by posts around Internet which are outdated
and mostly wrong.

So see http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq14.html#RAID

   Erik, great work and great patch... I, too, have a Samsung Galaxy S.
Your patch did not apply correctly, so here is my version of it.I've also

Please pkg_add usbutil, then identify the relevant /dev/usbX controller

this mode of tethering could do the same, we may be able to identify

Is this sufficient?


hmm, not sure.. from what I was reading there should be some
communications device class interface showing up and here's there's
just mass-storage. is there some different mode you need to select
on the phone to use tethering? (I haven't used any android phone).

pfsync bulk transfer performance

[Kapetanakis Giannis]

Hi,

I'd like to ask if it's normal for pfsync bulk transfer to take 5-15
minutes to end for 60k states.

pfsync is on a dedicated gigabit interface on both firewalls.

May  4 17:59:35 fw1 /bsd: carp: pfsync0 demoted group carp by 1 to 131
(pfsync bulk start)
May  4 17:59:35 fw1 /bsd: carp: pfsync0 demoted group pfsync by 1 to 1
(pfsync bulk start)
May  4 18:13:47 fw1 /bsd: carp: pfsync0 demoted group carp by -1 to 0
(pfsync bulk done)
May  4 18:13:47 fw1 /bsd: carp: pfsync0 demoted group pfsync by -1 to 0
(pfsync bulk done)

Stats on this interface show 967 pkts/sec1421128 bytes/sec
Iperf  gives me 850Mbps from fw2 to fw1

fw1 is -current, fw2 is 4.9 -stable (kudos for another excellent release!)

regards,

Giannis

This is probably the first attempt failing because the interface is not yet
configured. So the first attempt times out and another one is done after a
while,

This is not the case, cause I use that interface to ssh from one machine
to the other. Actually is the first interface being up and usable.

I also see the pfsync traffic all that minutes. Usually it takes 5
minutes (which seems a lot). Today it got 15.

Re: Is there kernel option like as vga=?

I don't know what destroyed means (blank?). I have a very old laptop.

If I do

 wsfontload -h 8 -e ibm /usr/share/misc/pcvtfonts/vt220l.808
 wsconscfg -dF 5
 wsconscfg -t 80x50 5

I get white lines filling the screen.

but if I do

 wsfontload -h 8 -e ibm /usr/share/misc/pcvtfonts/vt220l.808
 wsconscfg -dF 5
 wsconscfg -t 80x50 5
 wsfontload -h 8 -e ibm /usr/share/misc/pcvtfonts/vt220l.808

It works perfect. I always thought this looked too squashed with the 80
column limit and I'd have to spend ages hunting font files but on this
old laptop with display set to expand in the bios, it looks great :-).

ttyC0 looks like it's in Grandad mode though.

Graphics tablet use with OpenBSD?

[ropers]

Hiya,
I'm considering whether to try to get a graphics/pen tablet for
GIMP/graphics design and stuff.

Are there any OpenBSD users out there who currently use a graphics
tablet with OpenBSD?

These days, does support for these require custom drivers at all? Are
they basically just pointing devices? Are they supported by uhid(4)?
I've never owned a graphics tablet before, but I gather some Wacom or
other brand tablets/pens have eraser buttons -- which I suspect would
require a special driver, wouldn't it?

I thus far only run i386 OpenBSD, and I've only checked
http://openbsd.org/i386.html#hardware , which doesn't mention graphics
tablets specifically. If they're not presently supported (anymore),
then that would also be good to know -- I'm just asking whether anyone
knows more.

Grepping the archives, I found this: http://mongers.org/openbsd/graphire4
However, it dates back to 2005 and refers to the usbtablet(4) driver
which disappeared between OpenBSD 4.3 and 4.4:
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=usbtablet&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=OpenBSD+4.3&arch=i386&format=html
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=usbtablet&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=OpenBSD+4.4&arch=i386&format=html

I also found this info
, but
apparently it pertains to a specific laptop, so I'm not sure how much
of that is generalizable, or where to find further info.

If on the other hand someone did know how to currently get graphics
tablets to work, and maybe even could recommend a (preferably very)
inexpensive (but not shite) device that works well with OpenBSD, that
would be super grand.

Many thanks in advance,
--ropers

Not "everything possible"; rather "everything we expect to

Without the information that's in them, nobody is going to be
able to even guess what might be wrong.

Particularly important:-
- any panic or fault message,
- output from 'trace' and 'ps' commands, probably also 'sh reg'
- at what point does it crash? what is displayed on screen
before any panic/fault message?

It's not disk caching.

I still use raid(4) -- RAIDframe -- for it's root-on-RAID capability.  I

My thanks to Joel, Jordan, Marco, and the rest of the team developing this.


I use RAIDFrame too, but it was a mistake; I had no idea RAIDFrame was 
no longer maintained and had no idea of the existence of softraid when I 
installed and implemented 4.6/4.7 machines over the last year or so.


I hadn't used OpenBSD since 3.x days but I knew I needed it for some 
routing at work. I also knew I needed some software RAID. Almost every 
result from Googling something along the lines of "installing OpenBSD 
onto a software RAID" leads to a RAIDFrame guide like the one at 
http://www.eclectica.ca/howto/openbsd-software-raid-howto.php


I'm excited to hear softraid is coming along, and remember reading that 
support for booting off of one was recently committed. The work done on 
softraid is very appreciated and I look forward to seeing more of it 
committed, but the reality is there is a significant split regarding 
software RAID in OpenBSD. I bet I'm not the only person using RAIDFrame 
close to production without realizing it's not even maintained code.


I think this is mainly due to the fact that softraid can't be used for 
the root partition (or booted off of, for now). This leads everyone to 
follow RAIDFrame guides to install OpenBSD onto software RAID1, but 
nobody bothers to mention that RAIDFrame isn't actually maintained anymore.


And I have a feeling it's why my routers crash once every few months or 
so with some odd, sd0/sd1 related FIFO errors (using SSDs too...). I'm 
currently pulling RAIDFrame out of various routers and not using any 
RAID at all anymore -- CARP + pfsync + duplicate hardware is enough for 
what these routers do.


In no way am I blaming anyone here -- it's obviously my fault that I 
didn't read the 4.7 FAQ closer and learn about softraid -- but I think 
large amounts of people are being lead to RAIDFrame via Google without 
fully realizing what they are using or why they might be making a bad 
decision.

Along the line of: "Why tf doesn't my root-partition change often
enough, so that i am not ok by simply using ALTROOT? Didn't expect me
to read the afterboot manpage as i was prompted, didn't you?"

Top posting only because this phone's current Email client forces me to.

I think that admonition looks like it was in regards to my post. A ">" or two

if "it's not in GENERIC" is not a strong enough hint, I dunno.
