Re: How big should wd0e (/var) be
I may have missed it, but I don't think this thread would be complete without bringing up LVM. Assigning the bulk of your storage to LVM allows you to start with more small partitions and grow them over time as needed. That would get you a step closer to your accustomed FreeBSD/ZFS scheme. Gary Duzan p.s. NetBSD does have ZFS, but I haven't tried it, and I seem to recall some discussion of stability issues. > I think a fourth of the disk should be for /var and a fourth for / > and the rest for /home > > > xu...@sdf.org > SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.org > > On Wed, 13 Dec 2023, jo...@sdf.org wrote: > >> >>> I look at it in exactly the opposite way - it fills me with joy to >>> see that something has gone wild and filled a partition, and I didn't >>> even notice, as everything I'm doing is elsewhere, not being bothered. >>> [Turn on process accounting, and do a few full builds, and /var/account >>> will soon take over whatever space you have allowed it to occupy.] >> >> I stopped using many partitions on my BSD servers (except OpenBSD router >> where I use defaults), and my Rock64 type devices have only 1 partition >> (plus tmpfs etc); but for those Aarch64 devices that's how the image >> comes. >> >> It's interesting though that my (FreeBSD) ZFS server has many mount >> points >> because of various datasets.

We have had some trouble maintaining it, so we have been considering moving to Bitbucket, which already exists in the company. Bitbucket seems nice enough, though of course it is commercial.

My $DAYJOB is working on an open source database/runtime system which has run with multiple processes and shared memory from day one, where day one was over 25 years ago. I introduced PSHARED mutexes/conditions to the software as an alternative to existing spin/yield/sleep locks, which are known to perform pretty badly in userland at scale. (I.e., large systems with tens of thousands of processes context switching themselves to death.) The PSHARED mutexes and the robust futex implementation underlying them provided some much needed stability at the top end. To be clear, I have no need to run this software on NetBSD, but I wanted to present a case where this facility can be used to solve Real World problems. Gary Duzan

This flag is initially off when a socket is created, but may be set and cleared by the use of the F_SETFL command of the fcntl() function. https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/accept.html DESCRIPTION The accept() function shall extract the first connection on the queue of pending connections, create a new socket with the same socket type protocol and address family as the specified socket, and allocate a new file descriptor for that socket. So accept() creates a socket, and O_NONBLOCK is initially off when a socket is created, so it should be off. Gary Duzan

I can't speak to the NPF issue, but you could try using a vlan interface
between your servers as a workaround.
/etc/ifconfig.vlan0:
create
vlan {vlan-id} vlanif ale0
inet 172.16.0.2
!route add -host 172.16.0.3 192.168.0.3
and something similar on the opposite end. I do something like this
at home, but inverted, putting external traffic on a vlan (via a
hardware switch) and routing it out on the native interface.
Good luck.

A debug version of libusb shows that bsd.c:usb_os_find_devices() is skipping anything that isn't ugen, so any USB devices you have drivers for won't show up. Not terribly helpful, but there it is.

Regardless of alternatives to NFS, it seems to me that the first thing to do is isolate the interface performance from the NFS performance. If you can use ttcp or something similar to measure the TCP/UDP performance over the same link, that should help determine whether it is an NFS-specific problem or a more general networking problem.
