but it doesn't ask "do you have a commit bit?" so hard to know how they'd interpret the answers

maybe check if people put an @freebsd.org email address in the contact bit :-D

yeah

my thought exactly lol

jbo: so we shall see.. it did pretty well.. no more raspbery pi server.. will havve an offisite backup and plenty of power to try things

then again, if i was committer and wanted to complain, i probably wouldn't put a freebsd.org email address in there...

i have not built a computer since 1999.. back in the day when pentium slot cartridges were the bees knees

and abit still existed.

oh sysinfo is a hexchat script

never heard of it

I think irssi has one too, tho

which is not on bsd

(hexchat is not a terminal irc client)

no they dont give you the sysinfo script

in hexchat

I think I may have had to compile it in as an option or install it somehow, but it still is not comprehensive/verbose

meena: hey did you see i got in the ports commit log! though it's funny, because the committed patch is completely different from the (one-line) patch i actually submitted... but still... it has my name on it, so it's going on my CV

unixwitch: I don't religiously follow ports commits, like I do src commits

Also bofh just pushed a million commits removing all expired ports

oh no, not xf86-video-sunffb!

how will i upgrade my SPARCstation 20 now

that channel is hopping

unixwitch: there's always NetBSD

pcbsd too

jbo: why does your blog pretend to need js?

nimaje, hmm, not sure. might be for image gallery or search crap.

nimaje, it's a hugo thingy

nimaje, I've never been happy with this theme but also didn't care too much. I welcome any suggestions.

unixwitch: congrats!

on the CV commit thingie

jbo: well, it has some white "preloader" as position: fixed over the content, so you can't read it without js removing it or using devtools to remove that shit

nimaje, that's stupid. I'll look for a different theme soon (tm)

well, lots of stupid broken stuff on the www, at least it doesn't need js to load static text from a web server and display that as other blogs do for some reason

jbo: themes.gohugo.io/themes/blank ?

Title: Blank | Hugo Themes

nimaje, a bit of simple non-bullshit CSS wouldn't hurt :)

nimaje, I do like that it has a search functionality, but that is just a simple index that hugo builds during generation and then a simple JS script on top of that which is not needed to actually read the blog - I am totally fine with that sort of thing

nimaje, I was looking at this theme the other day - does that work on your end without shenanigans? neonmirrors.net

Title: Neon Mirrors

that seems ok

unixwitch, you still up mate?

jbo: a little bit

unixwitch, I'm "evaluating" sanoid/syncoid right now. Having a hard time finding proper documentation on the config file

unixwitch, is there anything other than the github wiki doc which properly explains all options in depth?

I got no man page either :(

jbo: You could take a whack at writing your own.

mason, are you suggesting I am writing my own documentation for a project I am currently evaluating for use?

jbo: No, I'm suggesting you write your own snapshot manager.

mason, that is where I am coming from.

jbo: i honestly can't remember what i read when setting it up but i think the config file was fairly well commented... maybe something on the github repository?

Oh, forgot all about that.

ah, moved to misc/window in 2009

unixwitch, does syncoid require/imply use of sudo? can't do doas?

jbo: i currently have it log in as root, so i'm not sure. does zfs allow work?

unixwitch, I setup zfs allow on the target host. then tried 'doas syncoid ...' from the source host and got this:

CRITICAL ERROR: ssh connection echo test failed for jbo⊙111 with exit code 255 at /usr/local/bin/syncoid line 1714.

if it's running as a dedicated user, does it need the ssh host key accepted or something like that?

ah shit, doas syncoid ofc makes my ssh key being invisible I guess (because then it does stuff as root?)

jargon libera is corrupt

on the source host that is

surprised it doesn't print a more useful error though...

well it does, I just didn't show you that for silly reasons :>

jbo⊙111: Permission denied (publickey).

jbo⊙111: Permission denied (publickey).

CRITICAL ERROR: ssh connection echo test failed for jbo⊙111 with exit code 255 at /usr/local/bin/syncoid line 1714.

ah

i don't use doas, but i guess it's wanting root to have the key instead of the user, or vice versa

libera is corrupt

unixwitch, syncoid seems to have a switch that might (?) help here? --no-privilege-elevation Bypass the root check, for use with ZFS permission delegation

not sure what "zfs permission delegation" is tho

jbo: man zfs-allow

excellent - that is what I already set up.

jbo: i think that means it won't check if it's root on the remote host, not related to logging in in the first place

> cannot create snapshots : permission denied I guess my zfs-allow didn't work :p

Is compression involved and different on the two ends?

reasonable question

hrm.. have to install NIC drivers.. realtek what a pain

at least freebsd 14 is operational, minus the nic card

Is there not any other way using an mDNS service to let hosts living the in the same LAN resolve and see each other based on their .local host names?

I used to set up an NSD on the router plus unbound on each local servers (physical, virtual, anything,) and whether or not via DHCP, tell hosts to use it for resolving the LAN zone.

But am thinking if there's any better way (haven't tried mDNS stuff, yet, btw.)

RFC6762 (Multicast DNS) defines .local

Is mDNS supported/enabled in FreeBSD by default, or I shall use a third-party port?

jbo: "if xmj is right" :->

OK, it ain't.

mdns cool?

what's rpath?

polyex: a hardcoded runtime (shared) library path in an executable. it allows the executable to run even when its shared libraries aren't in the system library path

for example: "cc prog.c -o prog -L/opt/mylib -l mylib -Wl,-R/opt/mylib" allows prog to load mylib.so.whatever from /opt/mylib

kinda like dep injection?

not exactly, aiui dependency injection would be more like LD_PRELOAD, where you load a library that application doesn't link at all

k sweet ty

polyex: mDNS is convenient for certain things and you probably want it if you use Apple HomeKit devices or w/e it is called

ew apple

polyex: depends on the type of product; for smartphones I prefer Apple over anything Google-adjacent as I used Android phones since October 2011 and until February of 2022

and strongly rejected iPhones haha

how would I go about connecting airpods ?

Does FreeBSD have an equivalent of Linux's timerfd?

jemius: timerfd(2)

(added in 14.0)

Why couldn't the posix people just include that

wouldn't kqueue be the FreeBSD analog?

yeah, the native version is EVFILT_TIMER... i assumed the question was from porting a linux app but if not, kqueue would be the better approach

It seems to me that everyone basically agrees that timers through signals are a bad approach

though they're the only portable timers in posix, afaik

well, the alternative is to implement your own system system as a layer on top of kqueue/epoll/select/whatever, which is what most applications do (if they don't use a newer api) rather than signals

s/system system/timer system

I like "system system". I'll call my next system that ^_^

unixwitch, you mean those use poll()'s timeout parameter and then calculate which timer fired and how the timeout has to be modified?

The thing is that you often want to monitor sockets and nevertheless do something periodically. If that something is more than one single thing, you basically only can use timerfd, poll()-timeout-magic or signals

Signals are troublesome because they could corrupt your state if the signal handler accesses something that the other poll() functions were in the process of modifying

jemius: yes, you keep some kind of sorted list of your upcoming timer events, then when calling poll() (or whatever) you set the timeout to fire when the timer is due. then, in the event loop, check for pending timers and dispatch them somehow

this is how libev does it, for example ... or at least it did last time i looked, i'd be surprised if it doesn't support at least timerfd nowadays

I mean, we can use timerfd ourselves, we don't need a lib for it

i know, i'm just mentioning another way to do this without timerfd or signals

hmm

Ah, screw it, I'll just use timerfd. If I have to port to Apple's systems one day I'll have to think of something. But that's a problem for future me

you know, i'll laugh if this all gets standardised in the upcoming C++ network extensions before there's a standard way to do it in POSIX

... which is almost certainly going to happen because POSIX seem to have no interest in doing it

posix seems to be on vacation since 2008

jemius: doesn't Mac OS have kqueue

Remilia, no idea. I don't use it yet, but consider it likely that we'd need it (iOS) in a few years

oh iOS

it does yes, but i don't know if iOS does (although i see no reason it wouldn't)

iOS probably has its own higher level stuff for developers

yeah i actually don't know if you even get libc on iOS. i guess at least some parts must be included because it was ObjC before Swift came along

There are probably very few app developers who even do anything in low level languages. On Android there at least is NDK

so i got this machine 99% operational and now i am doing to the dang realtek nic card.. i see here: freshports.org/net/realtek-re-kmod that there is a module to get the NIC card operational. my question is: if i do a /usr/ports install of this do i then have to work about pkg updates "messing" with it? I ask as this NIC is not part of base install 14

Title: FreshPorts -- net/realtek-re-kmod: Kernel driver for Realtek PCIe Ethernet Controllers

voy4g3r2: are you using a non-GENERIC kernel? the pkg version should work the the GENERIC that the pkgs were built for

when i bought up the machine, the kernel does NOT find the card

but i could be going down the, i did not know something path.

forums.freebsd.org/threads/realtek-…l-8125-2-5gbps-lan-controller.79710 <-- this mentions what i am experiencing, so i am walking through it

well, if you're using pkgs anyway, i would start by just installing the pkg and following the instructions (/boot/loader.conf) and see if it works

Title: Realtek RTL 8125 2.5Gbps LAN controller. | The FreeBSD Forums

voy4g3r2: is your NIC not working with built-in re?

let me boot the beast up, but that is correct.. right now it is not loading the re module.. gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B760M-DS3H-DDR4-rev-10/sp#sp

Title: B760M DS3H DDR4 (rev. 1.0) Specification | Motherboard - GIGABYTE Global

wait, you mean you have a custom kernel?

doesn't GENERIC have interfaces built into the kernel

the instructions on that thread seem to be about installing the package, not installing it from ports, which is also how i would suggest doing it

i just did a base freebsd install, 14, on the box. it detect everything except the NIC

yeah.. then i head over to this: freshports.org/net/realtek-re-kmod which mentions a package.. but i have no url to get it.. that i can see

Title: FreshPorts -- net/realtek-re-kmod: Kernel driver for Realtek PCIe Ethernet Controllers

i am just surprised, that after 15+ years of NOT buildin a computer.. it started up first time and my only issue is this

does dmesg mention anything at all?

voy4g3r2: pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:14:amd64/qu…ly/All/realtek-re-kmod-198.00_3.pkg

fwiw, base re(4) is kind of broken and i would always prefer the pkg driver even if it is detected by base... there's some undocumented thing that at least some of the ICs need to work properly and the freebsd driver doesn't do it

huh

as expected from Realshit

yeah, it is interesting, i found multiple youtube videos on it

redefining the low-end

and they said.. your response is common Remilia :)

just buy an intel nic card they say

i went into microcenter expected to spend 300 i spent 850

so trying NOT to buy more stuff

i concur with that, Intel is good. or Mellanox or Chelsio

i did a search, in the store, and said realtek works with re module.

when I was choosing my bothermoard I specifically looked into those with Intel NICs

so i go, sweet, moving on

fwiw, i used realtek-re-kmod on one system here (before i put an Intel card in it) and it does work fine, i didn't have any issues. just one extra step when installing

tbh the best thing you can get is a quad port Intel PCIEx4 card

hrm.. can't find the re module

ports also needs working network to fetch the distfiles, so if you can use ports to install it you should be able to install it via the normal pkg install realtek-re-kmod too

haha

Remilia: yea that was a 300 buck card

it does look sexy

also 2.5 Gbps is generally dumb

go either 1 or 10

2.5Gbps is (sadly) gaining quite a bit of traction in the home market... which annoys me because i agree

2.5 means you are locked into 'gaming routers' for ethernet

yeah well it is staying 1 gig on this network

and dang nab it, my dumba** did not install ports when i did this install

i knew that was going to bite me in the a**

(i do think there's one valid use for 2.5G/5G, which is running wireless APs over existing Cat5e structural cabling... but that's pretty niche)

voy4g3r2: just copy the realtek-ke-kmod package i linked above and the pkg package onto a usb stick or something and install with pkg add (i think this works with /usr/sbin/pkg, right?)

doing the move now

the land of thumbdrives in freebsd partition format and apple formats.. no fat ones..

pkg package: pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:14:amd64/quarterly/All/pkg-1.20.9.pkg

at least the usb enclosures are gone from my network now :)

what did you replace those with? a new motherboard with more ports?

a whole new system..

ah

hope that works out better

me too

(well, aside from this issue)

and i can then have the offiste backup complete as that is also sata stuff

i was more worried i was going to mess up the computer build

and i swear that spring for the cpu.. that thing hurts if your fingers are in its way

i was expecting a small "pop" nope.. damn thing flings open.. fast and hard

voy4g3r2, if you care: my current home NAS is a HPE MicroServer Gen10+ running 14.0-RELEASE

I wish it would have more bays but whatever - I guess raidz2 is good enough

heh, i used to have a microserver years ago... probably one of the first generations. nice that they're still around

that was the biggest struggle.. find a machine that had enough bays

this one has 6 2 2.5" and 4 3.5"

unixwitch, glad to hear that I got something that was already reasonable years ago :)

this board even has nvm.e so in theory i could eliminate the 2.5"

voy4g3r2, what did you end up with? got a link?

custom build

ah, so just shopping for chassis and then whatever fits inside of it? :D

or did you get a barebone?

i use a Corsair Obsidian 750D for our file server... it's not too expensive since it's a desktop/gaming case but you can put 9 (!) 3.5" disks in it plus a bunch of SSDs

gigabyte motherboard, 32 gig of ram, 3 4tb toshibas, 1 2.5" generic some case..

jbo: i went around and found parts :)

I was actually looking around to upgrade my current workstation. it's an i7-8086 with a quadro p5000 and 64 GB DDR4 RAM. I got that machine in 2018 I think.

anyway, when I was looking for parts online it seems like the only choice these days is gaming parts

oh and an i3 3.4ghz quad core

everything hast stupid RGB and probably costs 50.- more because the PCB is black

not sure your location but i went here: www.microcenter.com

there is a store by philadelphia area

jbo: have a look at Fractal, they make well designed cases that don't look like gaming bling and don't have RGB or transparent sides

you find a sales person, they walk around ith you and confirm compabitibility

an old timer is like.. yeah we do nto have prebuilts with bays of drives.. the rage is nvm.e.. you gotta go custom

unixwitch, my non-rack cases are all fractal r5 :)

he did laugh when i said, last time i built a machine the pentium slot was the cpu rage of the day

unixwitch, I was mostly upset by mainboards I guess

i miss those slots

p2 400 on an abit bx6v2 board

inwin q500 case

that was my high school graduation gift.. that machine lasted till 2008

i used to have a DEC system with the CPU on a slotted daughterboard... you could switch between i386 and Alpha by just replacing the cpu card

damn you exfat partition

unixwitch, I am also very much on the fence regarding intel vs. AMD. I never had an AMD system before but ryzen 9 7900 looks... reasonable

jbo: ah yeah. my desktop motherboard has RGB but fortunately i can't see it. i did manage to find a decent ASRock B450 board with no RGB on it for another system

asrock is chinese... I don't feel like trusting their firmware "currently" tbh.

oh wait, they are taiwanese

i actually like this ASRock board, i'd consider them if i end up doing another build

I have an asrock board in another build. it seemed like great price/value back in the day

it generates fewer acpi(4) errors than my MSI board which i take as a good sign :-)

unixwitch, any opinions on the intel vs AMD story?

the exact cpu is core i3-13100 raptor lake 3.4ghz quad-core lga 1700

jbo: not really. i've been using AMD since the Athlon MP because the price/performance always seemed better at the times i needed to buy something. my only complain is they are pretty starved for PCIe lanes, i think Intel might be better there

(it doesn't help that consumer motherboards distribute the lanes as like, 2 x16 slots and 4 x1 slots, and no actually useful x4 slots)

yeah, I was actually considering just getting a supermicro board for my next desktop

but they don't seem to have AMD socket offerings which made me worry about my potential pick of AMD for the next machine

i noticed the supermicro are doing AM5 now, not sure if that's for desktop too or just server

they do?

Title: H13SAE-MF | Motherboards | Products | Supermicro

aye

only noticed that board because someone linked it in another channel, i don't know if they have anything more suited to a desktop

q___q

Title: Desktop & Gaming Motherboards / Boards | Supermicro

there's your RGB boards - now from SuperMicro

unixwitch, I see what I did wrong when I looked for SM boards: I only checked the "workstation" category

well looks like the module is on the machine

time to reboot said machine

woohoo!! it finds the card

sweet!

unixwitch, is there a reasonable way of telling syncoid not to mount datasets on the remote host? I see that it copies mountpoint properties (which is reasonable) but I don't want the remote host to actually mount them ever.

jbo: i don't know off hand, sorry

aye

and i can ssh in, thanks channel for the help

realtek crap engaged!

now time to figure out how to move the zfs to this new one,

voy4g3r2: zfs send | zfs recv!

(or: zfs send | ssh newhost zfs recv)

yeah.. these 3 drives.. i am NOT doing raidz0+1 this time

Happy New Year!

my head hurts.. with 3 drives (4tb each) i can do raidz or raidz2.. no other option is available to me?

you could also do a 3-way mirror

which caps me at 4tb - minus the overhead of the filesystems.

yes, the usable capacity would be the same as a raidz2, i.e. a single disk's worth

buyers remorse.. they did not have 6tb drives there.. only 10tb

and my heart leaped..

raidz it is and having this backup going.. so i can minimize pain, thank you unixwitch

3 disks is kind of an awkward size, i would prefer 4 disks and do raidz2 (or maybe mirror-stripe) so you get 50% usable capacity

haha.. yeah, they only had 3 drives left and the majority of this build was the hard drives..

although stripes over 3-disk mirror or raidz2 is not uncommon

yeah.. when i get a nvm.e drive.. i can make it a 4..

now i remember why i just bought macs for the last 18 years

this stuff gets you in trouble and a thin wallet

hmm, i feel fairly certainly if you'd bought a system of the same config from Apple you'd have ended up paying a lot more...

that is the thing, i would not because i would spend a lot more.. but those g5 macs back in teh day were damn good looking

ah damit... located a machine that is still running 13.1-RELEASE :s

can I directly jump to 14.0 or should I do the intermediary 13.2 update first?

jbo: update to latest 13.2 first because of the freebsd-update bug tripped by something in /usr/include

ack, thanks!

unixwitch, I played around with sanoid/syncoid since you recommended it here yesterday and overall I like what I am seeing.

just trying to figure out how to properly prevent the destination host from mounting when mountpoint properties get replicated

I guess an ugly option is to set canmount=off on the parent dataset on the destination host

ruuun little king

err, wrong chat sorry

your contribution has been noted

Hello! I am running FreeBSD 14 and several versions of openssl are available as packages. `openssl32' is considered an alpha version and so discouraged in production. Which one is it recommended to use for a stable operation?

rockyh: i would recommend the version in base (3.0, i believe) unless you have a particular reason to use a different version

unixwitch: so if it is in base I guess there's no even need to install the package

right

thank you!

rockyh: you only need extra versions is some software depends on it, or you're developing new software against new versions of it

and in the first case, pkg takes care of it

meena: thanks, in my case the openssl in the base system is enough

hurray

:)

is there some way to run some arbitrary application (like say a pdf reader) in a capsicum sandbox? i realise this wouldn't be as secure as modifying the application to support it properly

arxiv.org/pdf/1909.12282.pdf looks relevant ("CapExec: Towards Transparently-Sandboxed Services") but the software it's talking bout doesn't seem to exist anywhere

"Once set, the flag is inherited by future children processes, and may not be cleared.", so write a wraper that enters capability mode, but no idea how restricted the child would be if it knows nothing about capsicum

right, but you need something to provide the OS services that the application now can't use

hm, write an email to one of the authors? I probably would first try that @freebsd.org email

nimaje: i mailed the first author (on the basis that that's usually the person who actually wrote the paper :-) so we'll see what they say

unixwitch: while you're at it, you can complain that they don't provide nice LaTeX that can be converted into nice HTML ar5iv.labs.arxiv.org/html/1909.12282

hm, the latex source looks ok (download in "Other Formats"), but well it uses tikz, no idea how well latex to html converters can handle tikz

ah, that arxiv-vanity render is truncated at the first tikzpicture

oh i didn't notice that

that looks like something that could be converted to SVG

i think the authors should put their paper in a github repo so we can all submit PRs to fix it

open science!

meena: can you even put SVGs in LaTeX or do you have to convert it to EPS/PDF first?

there is some package (svg), that shells out to inkscape

yes, that's what she meant

is there something special you have to do for an encrypted swap in 14-release? i have /dev/nvd0p3.eli in fstab, but it doesn't actually create it/use it (nothing shows up in swapinfo). if i try swapon /dev/nvd0p3.eli, i get Invalid parameters error

Title: Chapter 20. Storage | FreeBSD Documentation Portal

unfortunately, I do not seem to be able to get it to recognise my card: an Asus AX-3000 with intel chip ax200 wifi+bluetooth

AumShivaya: bluetooth is never, ever fun. or a good idea.

wifi works fine, bluetooth ..otoh

meena, yes, i added .eli to the device name

bcarson: what's dmesg has to say?

nothing :(

apparently I should manually load firmware to my card....which is fine, except I only have instructions for how to do it to usb card..mine is pcie

if i try with bde instead of eli, it thinks about it for awhile and then returns: swapon: gbde (attach) error: /dev/nvd0p3.bde

hmm

i think this is an "nda" vs "nvd" problem

my fstab has nvd, but my dmesg shows nda

hm, i accidentally 'doned' a task on github and now i can't work out how to un-'done' it

oh, found it, there's a secret unlabelled button you need to click

lol, ok, that fixed it. i guess i missed that change.

I thought that was one of the big ones announced

Happy New Year from Denmark!

someone suggesting 12.x should be maintained until OpenZFS "is proven", apparently missed the freebsd-specific ossl(4) that destroyed encrypted zfs pools

i missed that

Title: 275306 – 14.0-RELEASE: ossl(4) causes data corruption on encrypted ZFS filesystems/volumes

(my point only being that all software has bugs... staying on ancient software forever isn't really a solution)

Thanks for reminding me I need to upgrade my 12.4 VMs.

unixwitch: they also missed the somewhat important part which is that the race condition was introduced back before OpenSolaris.. was. It dates _very_ far back, and just wasn't possible to hit until I/O offset operations were implemented, and only then if very specific behaviour is done by userland tools (which was enabled by a new set of GNU coretools).

If I understand the userland behaviour, it also seems to me to go against how userland programs should behave when it comes to caching?

ok I have googled

come to the conclusion that no one has a pci-e wifi+bluetooth combo card like I do

I am spesh

happy new year

i've never even heard of a PCIe wifi+bluetooth card

is that an amazon special?

happy new year to all

now you have
