09:50:12 <aade> Website down?
09:50:58 <warden> aade: it's responding to me (from Italy)
09:51:29 <aade> Just me then.
10:01:04 <szilard> For a bugreport I should post the output of the following command:     printf '\x1b'
10:01:14 <szilard> But it doesn1t seem to work on my side:
10:01:35 <szilard> szilard@omnios:~% strace printf '\x1b'
10:01:35 <szilard> ERROR: unable to open /dev/log
10:01:35 <szilard> szilard@omnios:~% sudo strace printf '\x1b'
10:01:35 <szilard> Password:
10:01:35 <szilard> ERROR: tracer already exists
10:02:01 <szilard> Whats wrong with this? Is strace is dtrace under the hood or something?
10:02:06 <aade> No
10:03:18 <aade> Well at least not to my knowledge. Are you actually trying to debug printf?
10:03:34 <aade> What shell are you using to start with?
10:04:40 <szilard> SunOS omnios 5.11 omnios-r151056-1acbca4f5bd i86pc i386 i86pc
10:05:00 <szilard> I try to help to debug this: https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/12458
10:05:02 <aade> With bash for instance you get a built-in printf
10:05:30 <szilard> this is zsh:
10:05:32 <szilard> szilard@omnios:~% echo $SHELL
10:05:32 <szilard> /usr/bin/zsh
10:06:17 <aade> and if you strace /usr/bin/printf you get the same thing?
10:16:32 <aade> I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to do. Are you on Linux doing this or what?
10:37:43 <szilard> root@omnios:~# echo $SHELL
10:37:43 <szilard> /usr/bin/zsh
10:37:43 <szilard> root@omnios:~# strace /usr/bin/printf '\x1b'
10:37:43 <szilard> ERROR: tracer already exists
10:38:03 <szilard> still the same.
10:38:57 <andyf> strace is a tool to trace STREAMS messages. I think you want `truss`
10:39:19 <andyf> which is closer to the Linux strace
10:39:20 <szilard> aade: fish segfaults on OmniOS. I try to compare its behaviour with Linux to find any possible culprits.
10:41:13 <szilard> andyf: thanks!
12:10:13 <aade> ezilard: Like andyf said, truss is the analog on illumos. I assumed however that you'd already tried that by reading your bug report. Toward the top of the page you have truss and then later on down in the oodles of trace dumps you're running strace.
12:10:25 <aade> And there's mentions of Linux.
12:12:43 <aade> What is fish and is this porting work you're trying to do?
12:17:29 <aade> Have you analyzed the core dump perhaps?
18:16:05 <szilard> I am trying to install windows server  in a bhyve zone, the installer boots but the mouse doesn't works. Any hints?
18:20:59 <sommerfeld> what options are passed to bhyve?   the working config I have has `-s  30:0,fbuf,vga=off,wait,w=1600,h=1200,unix=/z/vm/bhwin/vnc/vm.vnc -s 30:1,xhci,tablet`  at the end of the args (this is on openindiana)
18:22:18 <sommerfeld> (the unix=... path is to set the socket endpoint used by VNC)
18:24:00 <szilard> I use zoneadm / zadm, so I am not in full control of the passed args
18:24:18 <sommerfeld> sure, but you can still look at the args of the running process with pargs
18:24:26 <szilard> sure!
18:25:28 <sommerfeld> I believe the tablet-style mouse is what works best for VNC console for a VM
18:26:41 <szilard> this is my bhyve.cfg: https://paste.omnios.org/?79add231dea89be7#E6RK4ji6iVic9ApM9EnKZjvV4LiueiHaM8URfoqtynkp
18:27:43 <szilard> sommerfeld: maybe I am facing this: https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt/-/issues/718
18:31:15 <sommerfeld> yes, I have -s 31,lpc earlier in the args
18:34:10 <m1ari> I have a vague memory of someone commenting about the lpc 30/31 issue here or one of the similar channels recently
18:34:20 * m1ari goes to grep logs
18:39:31 <m1ari> or maybe not so recently: I think this is the bit I remembered https://log.omnios.org/omnios/2025-07-17
18:40:34 <szilard> will check, thanks
18:51:27 <szilard> I have modified the zone config like type=windows, it sets lpc to 31, which I can see in the bhyve.cfg:
18:51:37 <szilard> pci.0.31.0.device=lpc
18:51:43 <szilard> it still doesn't works.
19:44:53 <andyf> Give me a minute and I'll paste mine. I just need to boot the machine that has it.
19:48:32 <andyf> szilard - here is the zadm config for one of my windows VMs - https://paste.omnios.org/?11a653edf8901dc4#Hgi5cUTCnnqC7o35GZsd1uuuJd2MaXVhyVoUQDFG8Fdx
