freebsd stable - May 2017 - 11.0 and tw_cli fail

Was the tw_cli utility built for FreeBSD 10?  If so, you need to
either rebuilt it, or build your kernel with COMPAT_FREEBSD10 in the
config file.  It's in the GENERIC config file, so you'll have it if
you don't use a custom kernel.

Yeah, I have a custom kernel with COMPAT_FREEBSD10 already in it and no
joy. However, I checked GENERIC and it works. Then I tried COMPAT_FREEBSD9
too and no go.. guess I'll keep playing.

I posess one 9650se card 12 ports with a computer build with freeBSD 

with a custom kernel build.

i haved this particular error one day (it uses old mmap calls, which have
removed? some time ago)

?

you can see why it fails by invoking the tw_cli after the truss(1) command

?

# truss tw_cli
readlink("/etc/malloc.conf",0x7fffffffea50,63)?? ERR#2 'No such
file or directory'
issetugid()????????????????????????????????????? = 0 (0x0)
compat6.mmap(0x0,0x1000,0x3,0x1002,0xffffffff,0x0,0x0) = 34366898176
(0x8006d4000)
break(0x78f000)????????????????????????????????? = 0 (0x0)
break(0x790000)????????????????????????????????? = 0 (0x0)
break(0x791000)????????????????????????????????? = 0 (0x0)
sysarch(AMD64_SET_FSBASE,0x7fffffffeb10)???????? = 0 (0x0)
----snip----

?

the tw_cli utility worked again? with COMPAT_FREEBSD6 compiled in the kernel

and the compat libraries from the same version also installed...

?

this two things solved this very particular problem; for me at least.

?

hope? it helps you.
