similar to: FreeBSD 4.9 losing mbufs!!!

Hi All, Mysql service is going down continously in my system due to lack of memory space. I checked the messages log and found the following error message. All mbuf clusters exhausted, please see tuning(7). I have no idea about mbuf cluster. Can anyone please help me to fix the issue. I hope the information below will help you. Following is the output of top. last pid: 84718; load

Hi list, since we activated 10gbe on ixgbe cards + jumbo frames(9k) on 9.0 and now on 9.1 we recognize that after a random period of time, sometimes a week, sometimes only a day, the system doesn't send any packets out. The phenomenon is that you can't login via ssh, nfs and istgt is not operative. Yet you can login on the console and execute commands. A clean shutdown isn't possible

Ive been googling quite a bit now for problems with running out of mbuf clusters. Im basically sending a 30k datachunk down 1000-4000 connections, but 1000 is more than enough to quickly fill upp 8192 mbuf clusters. I also tried setting maximum amount of mbuf clusters to 65536, but that only made the box hard-wire 86MB of 96MB RAM, making it just as unsuable as a dead machine. Of course, when the

Andre, Are you going to have time to MFC things from -current for auto-tuning -stable before 9.2? I fear (maybe unnecessarily?) that we are about to ship yet another release that can't do basic 10gigE when sufficient memory exists. If you don't have time, then let me know and I'll see what I can do. -- Alfred Perlstein VP Software Engineering, iXsystems

Hi there, I have some DDOS(?) attack on my router going where my apache HTTP server is flooded with short-timed connections from some host. This results in LOTS of sockets in TIME_WAIT/LAST_ACK/CLOSING states and eventually I'm out of mbufs, which, consequently means I can't even connect to the router from LAN. The kern.ipc.nmbclusters is 2560, (I guess high enough for router with

I first met this problem when our (60 students) internetgateway refused to boot its new kernel, it was a 4.7-RELEASE. Then i loaded the old kernel and went home to check if my 4.8-STABLE does likewise. And the answer was yes! Both kernels were GENERIC + these options taken from the dummynet man pages: options DUMMYNET options NMBCLUSTERS options HZ When i boot the machine

Hello List, I have to dualcore Athlon 64 4800+ systems. Initially I was running 4.9 on both of them an was able to get 54mbits thru direct connected realtek 10/100 cards as measured by nttcp. I put stable on one of the system and now can on get 37mbits as measured by nttcp when going thru an ipsec tunnel. Eliminating the tunnel I get 94mbit/sec. Ideas as to why this is happening? Also

Although RAW sockets can be used when specifying the source address of packets (defeating one of the aspects of the jail) some people may find it usefull to use utilities like ping(8) or traceroute(8) from inside jails. Enclosed is a patch I have written which gives you the option of allowing prison-root to create raw sockets inside the prison, so

Hi, on 2 different servers, running 7.1-stable + zfs, I get this error rather frequently: Feb 5 17:01:03 warhol-00 kernel: impossible packet length (543383918) from nfs server sunfire:/dist Feb 5 17:01:03 warhol-00 kernel: impossible packet length (1936028704) from nfs server sunfire:/dist Feb 5 17:01:03 warhol-00 kernel: impossible packet length (1869363744) from nfs server sunfire:/dist

Hi, I have a Dell T710 with 4 X 10G ethernet interfaces (2 X Dual port Intel 82599 cards). It is running FreeBSD RELENG_8 last updated on July 13. What I see is packet loss (0 - 40%) on IPv6 packets in vlans, when the machine is not the originator of the packets. Let me try to describe a little more. If a neigbouring machine ping6 it, there will be packet loss. If it act as a router for ipv6,

Hello everyone, I am trying to tweak some of the sysctl tunables for the ix (ixgbe) driver in FreeBSD 9.2 since I am experiencing less than ideal performance and it seems like I can't find any: # sysctl -a | grep -i ixgbe device ixgbe I am running 9.2-RC4. Any input appreciated. Thanks, -- Rumen Telbizov Unix Systems Administrator <http://telbizov.com>

Hello! I''m working on a guest OS port which uses NetBSD drivers, and I''m currently working on the netfront support. I''m basing the driver on the FreeBSD 7.0 driver, and I''ve run into a problem in network_alloc_rx_buffers. Parts of the code with line numbers is given below, and I''ll try to explain where the problem occurs. The basic problem is that

In http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?200402260743.IAA18903 it seems RELENG_4 is vulnerable. Is there any work around to a system that has to have ports open ?

Hi all, I think I'm experiencing a bad mbuf leak or something of the sort and I don't know how to diagnose this further. I have a machine at home that is mostly used for transcoding video for viewing on my TV via the multimedia/plexmediaserver port. This software runs in a jail and gets the actual files from my NAS via NFSv4. It's a pretty simple setup and sits idle unless I am
