Help debugging non-sleepable lock panic on 6.2-RELEASE

2007-02-22 Thread Jason Thomson
This happens when we put our DELL PE2950 running MySQL 4.0.27 under load. We have a kernel core dump, but I'm unsure what to do next. It looks like the process triggering the problem is mysqld. mysqld is compiled from ports with no switches, and the threading library is set to libthr using lib

FreeBSD 6-STABLE. Route specific send & receive buffer sizes not working?

2006-06-23 Thread Jason Thomson
or am I missing something? See attached file below. route add -sendpipe -recvpipe works on FreeBSD 4.x, but not on 6-STABLE (or on 5.4 either - although that's not shown). I'm trying to set the parameters for specific routes so that I can properly account for the bw delay product. (I don't w

Using the 6-CURRENT twa driver on 5-STABLE.

2005-04-26 Thread Jason Thomson
Is it better to use the 6-CURRENT driver on 5-STABLE, or the 3ware 9.2 Software Release for 5.x. I see that there have been some changes between the two. Are they improvements, applicable to 5-STABLE as well, or just changes required for 6-CURRENT? It looks like the changes are probably optimis
