so... how do you set the screen resolution of tty of fbsd running on a vm? vidcontrol -i say "invalid ioctl for device"

hi all, anyone home?

is there an smr_t associated with the net epoch (to use with PCTRIE_DEFINE_SMR)?

is there some way to run docker so that the containers themselves use linuxulator or bhyve - supplying just a kernel for docker to run on without the whole OS around it? Or is there some kind of a feature in bhyve, that would allow the VM's kernel to directly utilize FreeBSD's storage and networking stack? My objective is to avoid running a full Linux system in bhyve (which works perfectly well currently) - but I still...

... need some linux server software and it does not look like any of it will be ported anytime soon. IIRC there exists a solution like plan 9 protocol used in wsl and I have some faint memory of Xen hypervisor allowing something like this - where you don't pass a whole LV to the VM, but a filesystem instaed

hmm there's this github.com/swills/docker-machine-driver-bhyve?tab=readme-ov-file but seems dead

does freebsd support WCN785x

openbsd doesnt seem to support it but linux does

it uses the ath12k driver on linux 6.12

nvm not supported but work in progress

i am very confused by PCTRIE_FIND_OR_INSERT() and apparently there are no existing users of this to see how you're actually meant to use it

i am trying to track down if people have good experience with the realtek 2.5GB drivers for freebsd in 14.0. .. considering opnsense

kevans: is everything in sys/modules expect to set its own WARNS level (or CWARNFLAGS) depending on what it wants?

trying to work out the right way to enable -Wthread-safety for bridge, because it's pretty useful: /home/ivy/src/bsd/dev/sys/net/bridge_fdb.h:149:1: error: expecting mutex '__fdb' to be held at the end of function [-Werror,-Wthread-safety-analysis]

this is a new one: panic: userret: Returning with sleep disabled

oh, i think this is what happens when you forget to call NET_EPOCH_EXIT

Anyone know how I can turn off ASLR properly for WINE? I got a game that does some live patching of some files and I think ASLR is preventing it. I toggled off all the sysctls with aslr, and even tried elfctl on wine64.bin for +noaslr but the vm.aslr_restarts counter keeps increasing when I try to run the game so ASLR is still on.

pertho: Might be a mailing list or #bsdmips (EFnet) question.

just wanna confirm, if a jail is a vnet jail, it requires a unique ip and no other jail (vnet or otherwise) on the jail host can use the same ip?

kerneldove: practicaly, yes, but there's nothing stopping you assigning the same IP address to two different vnets jails, it just won't work, the same as if you assign the same IP to two different physical computers

ok got it ty. and host based networking (where jails share same nif and ip as host) is more efficient? (because it's not running a separate net stack)

probably slightly more efficient, yes

i would not usually consider that in practice though

why not?

because i don't care about a 0.001% difference in networking performance

ah right

and btw, vnet jail can't reuse same ip host uses right? vnet is basically saying this is a different network host and thus needs its own ip

that is correct

you cannot assign the same IP address to two different physical computers, so you can't assign the same IP address to a host and its vnet jail

tyvm. btw saw service jails are coming in 15 that's really exciting

at first i started running services as their own user, now i can go further and run them as their own user in their own jail!

service jails as currently implemented are not very useful

i was hoping to improve this before 15.0 but i got caught up in a load of other stuff and didn't get around to it
