Mixed -current MP results

All,

so I've taken the plunge, and upgraded my netbsd-4 SPARCstation 20 (2x
SM71) to -current two weeks ago. Mixed results, quite mixed.

On the up side, I don't see any "random" userland crashes. And when the
machine crashes, it doesn't lock up, as netbsd-4 used to, but reboots. And
it reboots quickly, thanks to "-o log", instead of spending fscking 20
minutes on the 70 GB disk. Most of the installed netbsd-4 pkgsrc userland
is fine, with the notable exception of sendmail dumping core, squid working
on 5_99_49, but silently failing on 5_99_51, and XEmacs being dodgy.

Kudos to those who pulled NetBSD/sparc kicking and screaming back to a
usable state.

On the down side... if the machine doesn't keel over running the daily /
security script, it will certainly die during the following Amanda backup
run. So far, I got one (1) successful Amanda run out of the last two weeks.
The (fairly reproducible) panic is

re: Mixed -current MP results


i haven't had a chance to look at these yet, to see what is up with biodone2.

one comment wrt the sleep you're seeing, LOCKDEBUG is *extmerely* expensive
with netbsd-5 and newer.  the slowdowns you're seeing are unfortunately to
be expected.  in at least one case, we've observed at least a 90% drop of
perf of an x86 quadcore system.

i mean "slowness you're seeing".

Ah, okay. Kind of to be expected with fine-grained locking spreading...
more locks, more debug code. My sparc isn't faster, yet, but I am less
worried.  ;)

How mandatory is LOCK_DEBUG these days?

What is going on with stand/ofwboot?

All,

what changes affected sparc/stand/ofwboot recently?

It looks like function prototypes were made mandatory, and now the build is
crashing left and right, because functions and variable types have not been
exported properly.

I tried to fix a few occasions, but it looks like the ofwboot sources could

Recently added -std=gnu99 in bsd.sys.mk requires function declarations.

net_open() in net.c stores a socket statically, so it looks net_tftp_bootp()
after net_open() doesn't have to return the socket in this case.
(probably busted of->f_devdata was not refered after that call fortunately)
