Hello,
after suspend from console (X not running) the laptop boots when pressing the
power button in sleep state. (I did not test with X.)
How can this be debugged or is it already clear from dmesg that resume from
suspend is not supported for this laptop?

But fsync also does an immediate physical write and hence blocks the process.
But msync with MS_ASYNC seems to do t

Yes. I open the files, then do many mmap->munmap in a loop (for large files--I
don't map the whole file at once), then use futimes then close.

Only once on munmap? If it is updated at an unpredictable time it makes
something like utime(2) senseless (since it is changed anyway). Always use
msync is a performance issue for e.g. "cp -p ..." (so I think cp(1)

That works, thank you!
The msync does now block and hence slow down the application, but the sync is
an advantage in the special case I use it.
But in general a sync should not be mandator
Hello,
when I copy a file with mmap:
- open both files
- mmap both files
- copy with memcpy
- setting mtime with futimes
- close both files
the time is set correctly and stays correctly for several seconds. But when I
do a sync(1) the time is updated to the current time! Also when I first close

Oops, thank you, that's it! I can't test it now but this will solve the issue.
Thanks,

Ok, then it's "random_seed start" that deletes it, that makes sense.
I'm using NetBSD-CURRENT amd64 from October 30th. So is your other ma
... random_seed start/stop works perfectly when called manually. So the
question is why it isn't called on shutdown (I always use "halt -p" to stop the
system, rarly I use "reboot").

No, rcshutdown is only se
Hello,
during boot I always get the message "random_seed: /var/db/entropy-file: Not
present". random_seed is (of course) enabled in /etc/default/rc.conf. When I
type "/etc/rc.d/random_seed stop" the file /var/db/entropy-file is written and
found on the next boot. But later the file is delete
Hi,
amd64 port is missing in latest snapshots on
ftp://nyftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/HEAD/
Is this due to a bug in the snaphost build?

Unfortunately it does not work on my machine. It does recognize the USB stick
as a floppy disk, then fails to boot it.
So again--could a boot.img could be provided e.g. for some mainstream ports
like amd64? Or a conversion script
Hello,
on ftp://nyftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily ISO images of snapshots (e.g. named

Hello,
resume from suspend does not work on a DELL LATITUDE E6540
with NetBSD 7.99.9 (GENERIC.201504161510Z).
Independend of the value of hw.acpi.sleep.vbios the laptop
reboots on resume. dmesg is:

Hello,
I forgot to do "disklable -eI cgd1" after encryption. Now it works.
Hello,
if I encrypt a device with
cgdconfig -V re-enter cgd1 /dev/wd0e
then unconfigure it:
cgdconfig -u cgd1
and then try to decrypt it:
cgdconfig cgd1 /dev/wd0e
The password is not excepted. What can be the reason?

Hello,
is it possible to use pkgin on CURRENT?
I did not find "pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/amd64/7.99.9".

They both don't exist.
So I did use an IP address, then it works.
The problem then is to change the path to e.g.
