Trying to animate fresh 2.3.19 kernel (against 2.2.1) we detected that kernel access to KSEG2 leads to various forms of kernel crash. For instance, { unsigned char *p = vmalloc(16384); printk("before accessing vmalloc area\n"); p[0] = 17; p[8192] = p[4096]; printk("after accessing vmalloc area\n"); } never prints "after..." User space, however, works fine ! It should mean that some high-level vmalloc and low-level tlb/sys-access refill incompatibility occured. Looking chenges I am impressed by changes in r2300_misc.S: mfc0 pte, CP0_BADVADDR; \ _GET_CURRENT(ptr); \ srl pte, pte, 22; \ - lw ptr, THREAD_PGDIR(ptr); \ + lw ptr, TASK_MM(ptr); \ + nop; \ + lw ptr, MM_PGD(ptr); \ sll pte, pte, 2; \ addu ptr, pte, ptr; \ mfc0 pte, CP0_CONTEXT; \ It means that some terrible evolution has been occured in VM subsystem. Looking changes at r4k_misc.S I see that it now defines NOTLB_OPTIMIZE, that means (avoiding long sequence of association and logical consequences) that we can spend a large time without key knowlege of changes in VM subsys. So, have anybody some straightforward idea what we should check first ? Regards, Vladimir.

The comments in io.h about "SNI hacks" lead me to believe that maybe there's more to this than just a bug, but still, if these are being defined wrong for SNI's sake, shouldn't that be #ifdef'ed? Or am I missing something?

This is a genuine linker bug which is rather difficult to fix. Also the MIPS support for glib 2.1 isn't complete, somebody is working on it. (Due to size constraints glibc 2.1 is a bad choice for most MIPS systems anyway; the recommendation is to use glibc 2.0.)

Not #ifdef'ed but fixed for real. The SNI machine so far was the only supported machine where we need these macros at all, so a hack was somewhat acceptable.

No problem, I thought, I'll just netboot and uninstall the guilty RPMS. Well, in the meantime, since I last netbooted, I've upgraded my Intel Linux machine to RedHat 6.1, and I suspect there is an NFS root issue here, because I've also heard about problems with NetBSD/pmax and RedHat 6.1. Anyway, I've updated all my server files and exported root filesystem according to the current version of Karel's installation HOWTO. But now, when it comes time to mount the nfs root, I get the following errors at the system console: Looking up port of RPC 100003/2 on Looking up port of RPS 100005/1 on Root-NFS: Unable to get mountd port number from server, using default. mount: RPC call returned error 146.

Most important for you guys out there the upgrade to 2.3.21 and a number of bug fixes. Try it, break it. Again ;-) Aside of this this kernel also has a good part of the 64-bit stuff. Not all of it, I'm maintaining the 32-bit kernel, the Indy 64-bit and the Origin kernel as separate trees to prevent bugs from creeping from on tree in the other. > On Mon, 6 Dec 1999, Ralf Baechle wrote: > > > I've put a snapshot of current CVS kernel sources into > > oss.sgi.com:/pub/linux/mips/src/kernel/linux-19991206.tar.gz.

These days the DECstation support in CVS is supposed to be complete, so I suggest to use CVS-current which at this time is 2.3.19.

The big difference between using NFS for root and for other filesystems is that there is currencly no locking support for the root. Could this explain your problem?

I observed this behaviour after I installed RH6.0 on a server. Then, I just removed knfs pakages and installed nfs from 5.2. Anyway, I prefer to not use "standard" RH kernels and don't like to apply any patches to the standard ones. So, knfs isn't a solution for me. BTW, I can't get locking even with non-kernel NFS server from 5.2. I mean at least I can't delete mail on a diskless client. Regards, Gleb.

So, knfs isn't a solution for me. knfsd in the standard kernel was broken over a long time.

Obvious, unfsd doesn't support locking.

I second that. There are two minor patches in the pipeline, one for R3000s and one for little endian R4000 Sempahores. Unfortunately 2.3.21 appears to be horribly unstable on my /260 and I'd like to fix that before I commit them. 2.3.19 is fine, on the other hand (besides the little endian R4000 semaphore patch). --- Regards, Harald From ludovic.lemoine@wanadoo.fr Wed Dec 8 11:07:15 1999 Received: from anagyris.wanadoo.fr (smtp-rt-1.wanadoo.fr [193.252.19.151]) by guadalquivir.fnet.fr with ESMTP (8.8.8/97.02.12/Guadalquivir); id LAA16252; Wed, 8 Dec 1999 11:07:07 +0100 (MET) Received-Date: Wed, 8 Dec 1999 11:07:07 +0100 (MET) Received: from andira.wanadoo.fr (193.252.19.152) by anagyris.wanadoo.fr; 8 Dec 1999 11:07:01 +0100 Received: from portable (164.138.107.84) by andira.wanadoo.fr; 8 Dec 1999 11:06:49 +0100 From: "Ludovic Lemoine" To: Subject: Mips box Date: Wed, 8 Dec 1999 11:11:20 +0100 Message-ID: <000001bf4164$92a6c040$546b8aa4@portable> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook 8.5, Build 4.71.2173.0 Importance: Normal X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Content-Length: 108 Lines: 5 Hello, I have a Mips Box (Casiopéa E10F).

When I build my own kernel, it crashes. On an Indy the crash message looks like the following; the same problem hits other machines as well but may look completely different. [...] This problem is caused by a still unfixed bug in Binutils newer than version 2.7. As a workaround, change the following line in arch/mips/Makefile from: LINKFLAGS = -static -N to: LINKFLAGS = -static" BTW, little endian semaphores for R4xxx and TLB miss handlers for R3xxx are broken in this snapshot. This is fixed since yesterday and 2.3.21 is happily running on a /260 and a /133. If you want to play around with recent kernels I suggest a fresh cvs checkout.

I am creating a new system called ATLAS and I have selected the MIPS 4700 series processors. I have decided that a mainstream OS is required for ATLAS to work. I have chosen linux because it is popular and I just like it. Any help that could be offered on the software end would be appreciated. There are some challenges due to the fact that ATLAS runs on the theory that the kernel runs dedicated on one processor and gives work to application processors (this allows for as many processors as there are available slots). How this is a problem is with seperate processors the kernel processor needs the OS, but the application processors need the OS system call interface and various process management functions. At this time in the ATLAS project the intent is to have the hardware created by this summer, and I need to get the software done in the time before I am able to get the hardware design tools. Shaun Kruger kruger@inconnect.com BTW: there is no hardware at all for ATLAS, devices as well as the main system all need to finish being designed.
