FYI port of CARP as a student project
Hello, In our last year of studies, we've got to choose a project on which we will work one entire month and we've chosen to port CARP to DragonFly because it brings together network protocol and programming. And that will make a great experience for a real project. So this project will start and end in February and 3 persons will work on it. I hope that doesn't bother anyone. Regards, jonthn

Great choice! I'm looking forward to test it. I hope you learn a lot on the way :-)

Re: VKernel progress update - 8 Jan 2006 (milestone reached!)
A vdevice and a vkernel man page would be great! Here's another little tidbit to put in the vkernel man page, along with the stuff you already had in the sampler you emailed me. The virtual kernel enables all terminal signals while in DDB mode but only enables the ^\ terminal signal while operating as a console, allowing ^C, ^Z and so forth to feed through. While one can always kill a virtual kernel with kill(1), it is often much easier to simply drop it into D...

Wow, this is exciting. Great work Matt, Sephe, Sascha and anyone else that I have missed that helped out on this effort. Look forward to start playing around with this!! Scott

The old addage, "First make it work, then make it fast", applies big time here. So I'd say use coarse polling for now. So does this mean you are volunteering ? -Matt

VKernel progress update - 8 Jan 2006 (milestone reached!)
The virtual kernel is able to boot through to a login: prompt! (Fanfair, music, etc). WORKS: The real init! (turn on the console in /etc/ttys and turn off everything else to get the login: prompt) The compiler compiles hello.c! HELLLLOOOO WORLD! Most utilities. Even 'halt'! Now how surprising is that? DOESN'T WORK (WELL): Anything that uses FP Anything that needs a network Most utilities, if you wait long enough. The hardest bits are do...

Re: VKernel progress update - 8 Jan 2006 (milestone reached!)
Hmm, might I propose a uniform naming scheme for drivers which are meant for the vkernel? Matt named the disk device 'vd'. Following this scheme, the ethernet driver could be named 've'. What do people think about this? I actually don't mind if it's 'vk' or 'v' as a prefix, so vkd for the disk driver and vke for the network driver would be fine with me as well. It's just that I'd like to write a vdevice(4) manpage (or something like that) which discusses all drivers for vkernel, and I th...

Re: VKernel progress update - 8 Jan 2006 (milestone reached!)
Hmm, the more I think of it the more I feel that we should rename the disk driver to 'vkd' since 'vk' is not used yet for any driver while there are several drivers already that start with 'v'. Sascha -- http://yoyodyne.ath.cx

Perhaps something more reckoning like v_* ? Though it's more like another color on the bikeshed ;-) -- mph

Re: VKernel progress update - 8 Jan 2006 (milestone reached!)
If you tell me how to get an interrupt when the tap fd has new data ready= ? Or should it simply do some coarse callout polling? besides that I think that a basic network interface is fairly trivial to = implement. cheers simon --=20 Serve - BSD +++ RENT this banner advert +++ ASCII Ribbon /"\ Work - Mac +++ space for low =E2=82=AC=E2=82=AC=E2=82=AC NOW!1 +++= Campaign \ / Party Enjoy Relax | http://dragonflybsd.org Against HTML \ Dude 2c 2 the m...

I'm experiencing some slight packet loss on the re0 interface. 500 packets transmitted, 492 packets received, 1% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 13.094/17.556/989.262/54.944 ms I ran a second ping test from another DragonFlyBSD machine on the same switch. Both pings were to the same google server. I'm sure this will be hard to diagnose. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to glean more information. Thanks, Joe

Pinging outside your LAN introduces so many other variables that the results can't be used to point to re(4); please test only on your LAN to eliminate most of the other variables. E.g., use ttcp or iperf to test performance/loss. Cheers, -- Thomas E. Spanjaard tgen@netphreax.net
