Data truncation on ptys

2010-08-19 Thread Michael Sperber
I'm one of the maintainers of XEmacs, and I've been running into a persistent problem with subprocesses / ptys since at least 5.x. (If this is not the right list, I'd appreciate a pointer to a more appropriate forum.) Here's the basic issue: Whenever XEmacs tries to send a larger chunk of data t

Modules and Buses

2010-08-19 Thread Alexandr Rybalko
Hi all, Can someone say, how `make` in sys/modules dir can obtain available buses. I try to make clean version of bfe, that can be for PCI bus or can be part of SoC (like BCM5354) on SSB bus. So for proper module building I need to know what bus interface I must build if_bfe_pci.c, or if_bfe_sib

Reading rtc on FreeBSD

2010-08-19 Thread phil hefferan
I have C code for Linux that, among other things, caches the difference between the rtc and system time, so that the program can detect if the system time has changed more than a threshold between runs. I want to port this code to FreeBSD/Mac. I'm trying to clarify the relationship between rtc a
