It sounds like you should start using the -U option on dump starting
with your next level zero for each disk.

I wonder if it could be made the default by first searching for an
entry with DUID and lower dump level, and falling back to a device
name entry if no matching DUID entry was found or if they were just
for higher dump levels. Once you do a level zero for a DUID it'll
never look for a device entry again, but during the transition I think
that strategy would find the same device entries that it would
otherwise have found.

That's not surprising. -H implements a merge sort, meaning it's split
into lots and lots of files, each of which is again split into lots of
files, etc. It wouldn't surprise me to see a 60Mline file consume a
huge multiple of itself during a merge sort.

And of course, the algorithm might be swapping.

That doesn't surprise me. You originally said you have 60 million
lines. Sorting 60 million items is a difficult task for any algorithm.
You don't say how long each line is, or what they contain, or whether
they're all the same line length.

How would *you* sort so many items, and sort them in a fast yet generic
way? I mean, if RAM and disk space are at a premium, you could always
use a bubble sort, and in-place sort your array in a year or two.

If I were in your shoes, I'd write my own sort routine for the task.
Perhaps using qsort() (see
http://calmerthanyouare.org/2013/05/31/qsort-shootout.html). If there's
a way you can convert line contents into a number reflecting
alpha-order, you could even qsort() in RAM if you have quite a bit of
RAM, and then the last step is to run through the sorted list of
numbers and line numbers, and write the original file by line number.
There are probably a thousand other ways to do it.

But IMHO, sorting 60megalines isn't something I would expect a generic
sort command to easily and timely do out of the box.

Re: I found a sort bug! - How to sort big files?

2015-03-15 Thread Kenneth Gober
I don't know why sort is giving you such problems.  there may be something
unusual about your specific input that it wasn't designed to handle (or it
might simply be a latent bug that has never been identified and fixed).

when I need to sort large files, I split(1) them into smaller pieces, then
sort(1) the pieces individually, then use sort(1) (with the -m option) to
merge the sorted pieces into a single large result file.  this has always
worked reliably for me (and because I was raised using 8-bit and 16-bit
computers I don't have any special expectations that programs should "just
work" when given very large inputs).

even if you think doing all this is too much bother, try doing it just
once.  you might be able to identify a specific chunk of your input that's
causing the problem, which will help move us all towards a proper solution
(or at least a caveat in the man page).

Re: OpenBSD as base OS for Virtualization

If someone wanted to hack together a Bhyve OBSD port would be complete
awesomeness.

Even as a custom patch only for the stupid guys like me who love this
unsafe virtualization stuff that so many use now. It would be awesome.

I know the whole virtualization thing is crap from a strict security point
of view but I like to take the risk, and OBSD certainly is a better
codebase to do this host stuff in than other systems. Probably some people
would be happy to donate some bucks to the person who wanted to implement
and maintain it.



Daemons can't have hyphen (-) sign in the name

2015-03-15 Thread Igor Konforti
I was writing Deamon by name "/etc/rc.d/example-client" and all a time I
was getting error that ${daemon_user} is "client"

After looking at source code of rc.subr

I
saw the following:


```
 _name=$(basename $0)
eval _rcuser=\${${_name}_user}
[ -n "${_rcuser}" ] && daemon_user=${_rcuser}
```

So, if we have  a deamon by name "example-client" because of eval there
will be always $daemon_user:

```
-bash-4.2# eval _rcuser=\${example-client_user}
-bash-4.2# echo $_rcuser
client_user
```


I'm not sure if this is bug or the feature, therefore I'm posting this in
misc but if you guys confirm it is a bug I'll send it to bugs@
This of course can be really fixed really easy.

I believe nobody would stop you to implement zones/containers

OpenBSD is primarily an "UNIX" OS, not virtualization host

The kernel will attach WSDISPLAY_DEFAULTSCREENS virtual consoles by
default, which is 6 on i386 and amd64 platforms.

More virtual consoles (up to WSDISPLAY_MAXSCREEN, which is 12) can be
created by using wsconscfg as you did. Your dmesg output will report
something like:
  wsdisplay0: screen 6 added (std, vt100 emulation)

Now, for X to find a proper virtual console to run on, it has to find an
unused one, i.e. one where no getty(8) runs. This is controlled by
/etc/ttys, and in the default congfiguration of six virtual consoles,
only the fifth (ctrl-alt-F5) is left unused and available for X.

If you run another X server instance, it will use the seventh virtual
console (ctrl-alt-F7). But I am not sure drm-enabled X servers can run
multiple instances.

Yes. it is exactly LDoms, this has been supported for a while now.

UFS/UFS2. The ZFS license/patent situation makes it a non-starter for
inclusion in OpenBSD.

chroot isn't really anything to do with virtualization.

QEMU on OpenBSD is emulation rather than what would normally be called
"virtualization", it's very useful for testing but too slow really for
production use.

So, for now, your current options are sun4v ldoms with ldomctl, or use
another OS as host (but OpenBSD is quite well-suited as a guest).

Another option is to use a certificate with multiple subjectAlternativeNames.
Usually more expensive than a standard cert, but cheaper than wildcard.

On an OpenBSD system, '/etc/skel' contains '.cvsrc', which itself
contains the line:

diff -uNp

So if one has created a local account the "standard" way using the
defaults, then '.cvsrc' will end up in your $HOME, which in turn will
make specifying the above options redundant.

Re: OpenBSD as base OS for Virtualization

Thanks to all.

Hi Steven,

You mentioned "QEMU, for example", so is there some more examples?
Solaris Containers, have ability to use branded zones, and there we can
launch Linux Gernel and setup Debian.
It also integrates and fully uses ZFS features, yes it's native, born in
Solaris
:) what I miss in lxc... :(

Yes I know, that bhyve is a FreeBSD project, and listen to:

Hi Jiri,

Is it something similar to solaris LDoms? On SPARC HW? Just interested.

vmware ESXi ... I was using it, but once my VMware hanged once in a VM
I have mounted two iso files and started copying ISO content to VM... It
ate
all my RAM and then all my CPU... and purple screen of death...

QEMU I was trying, but... what? max 2GB RAM? at least in Linux env...
Does QEMU has this limitation in OpenBSD?

To All again:

What FS supported by OpenBSD? UFS? ZFS?


And in conclusion: chroot and qemu for virtualization on OpenBSD?
sounds really poor... :(
