Re: [osol-discuss] any work on bug ID 6807184

[Yannis Schoinas]

I must admit I was suprised by this, but it was the FIX_TXDESC_ATOMIC flag that 
fixed the problem. I just set the following flags and the NIC stopped hanging:
-DFIX_6888015 \
-DDBG_TXDESC_DUMP \
-DFIX_SYS_ERR_INT \
-DFIX_TX_TIMEOUT \
-DFIX_TXDESC_ATOMIC \

Performance does improve with the all the flags set. I have been using iometer 
on a CIFS filesystem with these tests and with only the flags above I was 
getting ~750 Mbps. It jumped to ~900 Mbps with all the flags defined.

[osol-discuss] OpenSolaris SAMBA with LDAP back end

[Steven Sim]

Hi All;

My efforts to get SAMBA to work with DSEE LDAP has failed miserably on 
Opensolaris 6/09.


I need the ZFS features of Opensolaris and so cannot do it on any other 
platform.


Efforts to use the scripts as recommended in 
https://www.opends.org/wiki/page/SambaPDCServer have failed because they 
are not Opensolaris compatible. My efforts to use editposix=true in 
/etc/sfw/smb.conf to bypass external scripts was also not successful.


DSEE 7.0 installed ok though and I've gotten the schema imported 
properly into the DS 7.0 instance. (following instructions from 
https://www.opends.org/wiki/page/SambaPDCServer)


Any body in this list has gotten SAMBA to work with LDAP on Opensolaris?

Warmest Regards
Steven Sim

[osol-discuss] Opensolaris 2009/06 2010/02 update/upgrade problems

[me]

I have successfully installed both Opensolaris 2009/06 and 2010/02 preview but 
the only thing that I can get to work for upgrade or install/update are the 
core system files for the 2009/06 distro. For the 2010/02 I cannot get anything 
to update. I am updating over a wireless 11b network. I cannot get open office 
or any other updates to install with out a download failed message from the 
package manager. For your information I can connect to the internet and browse 
and download from other sites just fine, installing Codeina codecs functions 
fine to.

Anybody have any ideas? I am trying to give Opensolaris a try for a replacement 
mobile Operating Environment

I thought that was the case. Now back to my original question, when will see a 
Sparc bootable build from DVD?

Thanks for that clarification Alan,

I guess we'll just wait patiently until the consolidations move across.

Re: [osol-discuss] What version of a program in IPS?

[Alan Coopersmith]

At the moment, for packages in the main repo (/release, /dev), the package
creator gets no choice or control - package versions are assigned by the
SVR4 -> IPS conversion, and the team doing that hasn't researched each of
the thousand packages to find what version number to publish or make sure
they stay up to date.

This should improve as the consolidations start being converted to generate
the IPS packages directly, and they can then set the versions themselves
when creating the packages.

Re: [osol-discuss] What version of a program in IPS?

[Che Kristo]

So I am trying to understand...is this something that package maintainers
should be doing and are not or is it just something where there are no rules
and people are doing what they think is right?

Should I file an RFE around this?

Haven't heard any more. Can anyone confirm that OpenSolaris does not now (or 
will not in a future release) support the XVR100 on a Sparc SunBlade 1500?

Its a bit of a process artifact.  Note too that the version number of 
the package does *not* have to match that of the software (especially 
when its has been modified compared to upstream).  But, I do agree that 
there should be an easier way to expose the upstream version to users.

Moblin can be thought of as just another Linux distro.  I've gotten
the older GUI code running, but the bulk of the work is the
middleware.  This will be no trivial task and if the history continues
it will be a moving target with a lot of maintenance.

Re: [osol-discuss] OpenSolaris MicroDev edition

[Uros Nedic]

My suggestion is not directly related to this topic, butI would like to propose 
that SUN Management startto talk with Google and Intel about their future 
Embeded OSesfor Netbooks/PDAs. I'm talking about Chrome OS andMobLin - both are 
based on Linux.
Here it is well known that OpenSolaris is lacking frommiddleware. I did some 
small research for Chrome OS -it looks like that we have all needed middleware 
tobuild it on top of SunOS kernel instead of Linux.More info you could find on 
www.chromium.org andselect OS link.
For MobLin is a little bit harder but it is still posible, withthe help of SUN 
Engineers, Community, to provide SunOSversion od such Embeded platform.More 
info could be found on www.moblin.org
If we want to achieve it we have to act very fast! Icannot do it alone - first 
do not have enough timeand second I'm not SUN employee and have to earnmy 
salary in my own company.
What is opinion of Community and SUN employeesregarding that?

Is the qsort() compare function in atacmds.cpp declared as a C++ or 
extern C function?

If it is C++, try forcing it to extern C.



I think I found the source (smartmontools-5.38) and verified the above
failure with:

 $ export CXXFLAGS=-library=no%Cstd,no%Crun
 $ export LDFLAGS=-library=no%Cstd,no%Crun
 $ export CC=/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc
 $ export CXX=/opt/SUNWspro/bin/CC
 $ ./ocnfigure
 $ gmake

You can force the use of the libc qsort() by changing the compare
function to C:

Re: [osol-discuss] What version of a program in IPS?

Should we not have stricter controls over this? Seems a bit loose to me that
you can just choose whether or not to report the version on your package.
