Re: Packet Filter router i368 vs 64bit
Greetings Motty Cruz, In general, you could achieve performance by configuring your kernel according to your hardware. You can use dmesg(8) and 'GENERIC' kernel configuration as a guide for your hardware. Sometimes i386 will run faster than 64 bit (see http://www.openbsd.org/amd64.html). Juan J.

If somebody with less experience has problems understanding some particular aspect of some particular manual and thinks that an example might help, saying so on this list can also be helpful because people knowing an area well often overlook problems that less experienced users may face. Yours, Ingo It's worth to note the author of a manual page may have considered not to include examples since it could mislead from the main documentation.

pkg_find hack
Hello, Sometimes I don't like to install the ports tree to search for packages, because I know what I want to install. But I don't know the exact package name. I've done a little script to get the index.txt from the ftp (or do a ls *.tgz) and the search with regex in package names. Example: $ pkg_find ^vim packages.lst not found, downloading from: ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/3.8/packages/i386 Trying index.txt... Done! vim-6.3.85p0-gtk.tgz vim-6.3.85p0-no_x11.tgz vim-lang-6.3.85-gtk.tgz vim-lang-6.3.85-no_x11.tgz 4 packages match... $ pkg_find ^vim-6.*-no_x11 vim-6.3.85p0-no_x11.tgz Install it? n OK, may be later. If you answer yes being root, it performs a pkg_add -r. It's a 15 mins hack, but may be someone finds it useful. The shell script: http://blackshell.usebox.net/pub/shell/pkg_find.gz I bet there are more elaborated solutions out there, but this silly script does the work for me. regards, Juanjo -- Desarrollo y sistemas: http://www.usebox.net/ Pagina Personal: http://www.usebox.net/jjm/

Ah, after reading mod_gzip doc there's one thing I missed... mod_gzip doesn't use zlib at all. Snip from mod_gzip doc: ... mod_gzip_compress.c (about 3000 lines) contains Kevin Kiley's implementation of the gzip compression function, the one that 'actually does the work'. This part is not dependent on any specific Apache version and (from a purely technical point of view) might be used by other compression tools as well (like mod_deflate which currently uses the 'zlib' for compression). ... I've verified this from mod_gzip source. So the problem with mod_gzip cannot be related to any local change in the zlib provided with OpenBSD.

Problems with mod_gzip and 3.8
Hello, I'm having problems with mod_gzip package and OpenBSD 3.8 (i386). After installing the package and properly configuring it all, it doesn't work. And without any noticeable error :( We have here a 3.6 installation working perfectly with mod_gzip and the same conf: php + mysql and mod_gzip. I've checked the /mod_gzip_status and it says all it's OK (available and working). I've tried to log the mod_gzip response, but nothing (it doesn't log anything at all). I've configured mod_gzip to not remove the working files, and I can see then on /var/www/tmp but... the files ain't compressed. I have no clues about what it's happening. Someone has experienced problems with mod_gzip and OpenBSD 3.8? Any comment will be very appreciated.

I think you're another unhappy user of a SB Live! *5.1* (from DELL). Welcome to the club. You'll say: what the 5.1? Right! That's a sound card shipped by Dell as a sb compatible (enhancement of sb live! sic.), works under windows (it's said, I've not tested it). Two years ago this card was unsupported by all open source systems I tried for desktop. Peep google with 'sb live 5.1 dell'. My solution was: unplug that shit and buy a cheap and supported (REAL) compatible sb. regards, Juanjo -- Desarrollo y sistemas: http://www.usebox.net/ Pagina Personal: http://www.usebox.net/jjm/

Profiling a milter
Hello, I'm trying to profile a milter. I compile and link it with -pg option and all seems OK, but when I run the binary I get the message: # ./milter cannot find atexit, destructors will not be run! The milter itself interfaces bogofilter, so it needs to spawn a process to scan the messages and to classify then according the result of bogofilter. The instances of bogofilter doesn't exit normally (I get zombies and the output of bogofilter isn't right). This behavior seems produced by the profiling code added by -pg to the milter (not bogofilter). May be it's the waitpid function that is not working properly :? I'd appreciate any pointer about what is happening. There's someone on the list with experience profiling milters under OpenBSD? regards, Juanjo -- Desarrollo y sistemas: http://www.usebox.net/ Pagina Personal: http://www.usebox.net/jjm/

Those are declarations of pointers to functions.
/* real function */
void dumb(int a) { return a; }
...
/* here follows a declaration of func pointer */
int (*func_ptr)(int);
int a;
/* assign it */
func_ptr=dumb;
/* use it */
a=func_ptr(123);
Any good book about C should cover this. Look for OOP in C also, it's
frequent use pointers to functions + structs to add classes to C.

Then you should install 3.7 and move it to 3.7-STABLE. 3.7 has been out for 2 months and some bugs have been fixed. If you wanna avoid bleeding edge bugs (and discard bleeding edge features), you can install 3.6 and move it to 3.6-STABLE. But remember for 3.6 you'll only have about 5 months of support (it has been released on November, and each release has a 12 month cycle). But IMHO obsd development is very progressive and it's not usual to find bleeding edge bugs, so don't worry to install the newest release and profit of the 12 month support before upgrading to the next release (if needed, some systems doesn't need to be up-to-date and you can backport most important fixes -if needed-). regards, Juanjo -- Desarrollo y sistemas: http://www.usebox.net/ Pagina Personal: http://www.usebox.net/jjm/

May be is related to FAT16 and the extension for long filenames. obsd fs support for FAT16 doesn't have log filaname support, but mtools does. I've noticed problems while copying files from a Linux box to an obsd box using long filenames (more than 8 + 3 chars). Simply use short filenames or use mtools.
