>Release: unreleased
|
||
|
|
>Environment:
|
||
|
|
This was observed in Fluke, but exists in the OSKit default environment as well.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
>Description:
|
||
|
|
The loopback interface is not functional. Connecting to your own IP address causes a
|
||
|
|
divide-by-zero fault.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
>How-To-Repeat:
|
||
|
|
Use the BSD networking stack and connect a socket to your own IP address.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
>Fix:
|
||
|
|
This should go away with a proper implementation of PSEUDO_SET.
|
||
|
|
However, there is probably a problem with ip_input not getting
|
||
|
|
called due to software interrupt issues.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Simply adding a call to loopattach() in oskit_freebsd_net_init()
|
||
|
|
prevents the divide-by-zero trap, but the packets do not appear
|
||
|
|
to every make it to ip_input. Not investigated further.

This is actually a problem with GNU binutils a.out linking, but put here
|
||
|
|
so people know what is going on.
|
||
|
|
I tested with binutils 2.8.1 and 2.9.1.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The fsbmodmount example won't link with i386-mach tools since
|
||
|
|
in libstartup, _init_devices_net incorrectly gets resoved to the
|
||
|
|
one from start_network.c instead of the (empty) one from start_devices.c.
|
||
|
|
start_network.c's _init_devices_net references oskit_freebsd_net_open_ether_if,
|
||
|
|
which isn't there since that library isn't on the linkline (and shouldn't be).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|

Try to link the fsbmodmount example (from the "extended" dir)
|
||
|
|
with an oskit built with the i386-mach tools.

Details on bugs not currently in GNATS:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Several booting-related bugs have recently surfaced during testing
|
||
|
|
because we don't use these tools much ourselves. These used to work.
|
||
|
|
Looks like bit rot, tool chain dependencies, and possible hardware
|
||
|
|
glitches.

DOS boot adapter:
|

|
|
||

Subject: some testing
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
......
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I also tried to use dosboot (mkdosimage), so I could test it more
|
||
|
|
easily on my Win98 PC at home. That proved to be quite problematic,
|
||
|
|
as a) it requires a funny cross-compiler (I tried to build and use
|
||
|
|
i386-moss), b) configure is somewhat broken, c) the kernel is too
|
||
|
|
big (won't fit in a 64k segment), and d) it kept having problems
|
||
|
|
reading the image.exe file under dos.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
By ripping out huge chunks (like all gdb) and reducing the base_stack
|
||
|
|
back down to 4k, I was finally able to get it working, by dumping the
|
||
|
|
trap_state structure before and after the interrupt; I'm not sure what
|
||
|
|
was going on there (WHY did that make it work?).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Anyway, the dos boot adapter could probably use revisiting. I think
|
||
|
|
it would be good to make a dosboot.exe that loaded another file as
|
||
|
|
a multiboot image, and distribute that, rather than expect people
|
||
|
|
to try to build all the tools required to boot kernels.

Linux boot adapter:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Linux boot adapter (mklinuximage and linuxboot.bin in boot/linux)
|
||
|
|
has two known problems. We have not had time to track these down any
|
||
|
|
further.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1) It doesn't work on our Pentium II 300 Intel DK440LX motherboard
|
||
|
|
Phoenix BIOS test machines (that give us trouble with other things
|
||
|
|
such as netboot), but does work on our PPro 200 machines, on a PII
|
||
|
|
350 SMP ASUS motherboard machine, on a Pentium II 266, and on a
|
||
|
|
Pentium 166 Micron laptop.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
GRUB 0.5 (from www.uruk.org and mirrored on our ftp site,
|
||
|
|
flux.cs.utah.edu) exhibits a similar pattern when we tried it
|
||
|
|
on the first two types of machines.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2) It doesn't work when built with the tool chain on a current Linux
|
||
|
|
distribution: Debian 2.1.126, tools versions:
|
||
|
|
gcc version 2.7.2.3
|
||
|
|
GNU assembler version 2.9.1 (i486-linux), using BFD version 2.9.1.0.15
|
||
|
|
GNU ld version 2.9.1 (with BFD 2.9.1.0.15)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
but does work when cross-built on a FreeBSD 3.0 system using these tools:
|
||
|
|
gcc version 2.7.2.2
|
||
|
|
GNU assembler version 2.9.1 (i486-linux), using BFD version 2.9.1
|
||
|
|
GNU ld version 2.9.1 (with BFD 2.9.1).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Therefore we also provide a binary.
