Issues with 7.99.13 (amd64)
I've encountered three separate issues while running -current (most
recently, 7.99.13).
1. During start-up, I get the following complaints about my DVD drive:
cd0 at atapibus0 drive 0: <HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GHB0N, K37E2S94547, 1.00> cdrom removable
cd0: drive supports PIO mode 4, DMA mode 2, Ultra-DMA mode 6 (Ultra/133)
cd0(ahcisata1:4:0): using PIO mode 4, DMA mode 2, Ultra-DMA mode 6 (Ultra/133) (using DMA)
cd0(ahcisata1:4:0): DEFERRED ERROR, key = 0x2
cd0(ahcisata1:4:0): DEFERRED ERROR, key = 0x2
During system shutdown, I get an additional DEFERRED ERROR message
before the "cd0: detached" message.
Does anyone know what this error is? And to fix it?
2. System shutdown usually hangs while waiting for xdm to stop. I don't
know if it would ever recover (I've waited at least a couple minutes)
but as asson as I log back in on the console and 'kill -9' the xdm
process, shutdown proceeds normally. This happens on 60-80% of the
time.
3. The most annoying issue: Occassionally when there is a process doing
intensive disk I/O (for example, makefs creating a bootable .iso
image, as part of anita), other processes get completely starved from
any disk I/O, and hang until the intensive-activity process stops.
Once it stops, other processes proceed normally. This is with the
default BUFQ_PRIOCSCAN strategy.
This really affects the interactive useability of the system.
