Greetings,
The fact that FreeBSD does not beep after it finishes shutting down has
costed me dozens of hours of reformatting inconsistent filesystems, and
probably all sorts of little bits of data loss which I'm just unaware of.
I've tried to hack this into the kernel myself, without much luck. T

I got a panic on 4.5-STABLE with ffs_blkfree: bad size. I've searched
through the mailing lists archives without finding anything. Can anyone
help me trace down what the problem is?
Thanks!

Hi there...
I seem to have some problems with running strace (A program that
traces system calls, signals, and processes, in the ports:
devel/strace) on FreeBSD.
The problem is that the binary executable is not traced (it runs as a
forked process of strace, but in the background of the shell). Th

I was asking around in #freebsdhelp on EFNet what the equivalent of
GetTickCount() in the Win32 API is in FreeBSD.
I need a way to properly determine passage of time that is not affected if I
change the system clock for example. The only way I'm aware that you can do
that is by counting the numbe

rdtsc() will give you cycle counts since system boot. It reads a Pentium
internal register which is incremented at every CPU internal clock cycle.

doesn't fit my criteria since it changes, bah I'll just use gettimeofday since it's a
portable API and hope the computers I run it on don't change their blocks by too

If you're really worried about it, get a GPS device that can provide
you with a PPS signal
I am already synchronizing using xntp, that's not the problem. The problem is by some
weird way the clock got out of sync by about 1hr during daylight switch on one of the
computers I run, and I need a reliable way to get passage of time (I don't need
date/time, just the passage of it) for diff
depending on the acuracy needed use the uptime..

how about using setitimer(2) - ITIMER_REAL?
