"idiot word for give", TIL

I haven't made a bug tracker account yet, but I seem to have triggered this weird bug from a few years ago: illumos.org/issues/13067

→ BUG 13067: Regression between Hipster-November2019 install media and 2020-07: 'ls /devices' hangs (New)

and I also have a "hermon" (ConnectX-2) IB card in this machine... so I think whoever suspected that is onto something

unfortunately I (a) need that machine working and (b) can just remove the IB card, so I probably can't spend a bunch of time troubleshooting this - sorry

jbk want to get rid of /etc/avahi/services/smb.service ;)

please review code.illumos.org/c/illumos-gate/+/2374 - I think it should be quite ready now:)

Ugh. What happened to Gerrit? Pale Moon simply can't render the pages at all.

Just putting this out there, but my employment situation is such that I'm currently open to considering new opportunities :-)

tsoome: if you want to mess with it.. i just pushed what I have so far up to github.com/jasonbking/illumos-gate/tree/smb-mdns

basically right now (this is still work in progress, so treat appropriately) you set an smb share option 'adisk=true' to advertise an SMB share via mDNS

as well can do 'adisk=true,tm=true' if you want it to be for time machine

there's also an smbd config option (in smf) 'mdns' that's enabled by default to control if it tries to use mDNS

however you do have to make sure dns/multicast is running obviously

(if mdns is not running, things hsouldn't break, just no mDNS advertisements)

there are some unanswered questions before I'd feel comfortable putting it up for review

(like IIUC, there's a limit on the number of entries you can advertise via mDNS based on the size of TXT records.. not sure the best way to handle that if someone tries to advertise too many shares)

time machine is the only reason to announce for me;)

also.. it might be useful to be able to specify things like which interfaces to do mDNS, etc.

but it should hopefully be at least minimally usable in it's current state

would also be neat if one could select a _device-info model to announce (e.g. _device-info._tcp local 445 model=Xserve3,1 makes it a rack server instead of a bluescreen)

i wasn't sure if that was appropriate to put in the smb server bits

it seems like something else on the system should handle that

maybe the dns/multicast service itself?

in my case, /etc/avahi/services/smb.service does it

some way to set those permanently would be nice, running dns-sd in the background is a bit janky (but does work)

I was thinking once if we should add mdnsd to announce it, but ....

i had also thought about something analogous to svc.ipfd

I have not checked recently if there is a update to mdnsd too...

where you could add info to an an smf manifest, and this (hypothetical) service would monitor and if one of those services was enabled, start advertising whatever the manifest said it should

e.g. ssh

for stuff that doesn't have built-in mdns support

but not sure how many things would realistically benefit

ok, boot from stripe is working ok, time to fix this test.
