hyperreal'Member how I was kinda bragging about my FreeBSD NAS's 21-day uptime? Well, I attempted to reboot, just for the heck of it (because why not)...and some shit happened.The reboot process took a while to stop PIDs, and I saw there was a "naspool has been suspended (uncorrectable I/O failure)" error printed to the console. About 40 minutes later it's still stuck. It appears to have hanged, so I had to do a hard reboot. I searched around on the web for this error and found some forum posts, but none of them seemed to have any doable solution. I've gathered that the common thread in some of the forum posts of this error is that it has to do with USB storage, and my naspool is connected via USB.It booted back up, and the naspool seems fine, but for some reason bhyve doesn't work anymore. I have my web services in a bhyve Debian VM, so those are now (still) down. Bhyve was working before the reboot. When I run the bhyve command to launch the VM, it appears to boot but then it just stops and returns to the shell. No bhyve processes are running.I suppose I can try reinstalling Debian in a QEMU VM, but I feel like bhyve /ought/ to work.<a href="https://tilde.zone/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> <a href="https://tilde.zone/tags/bhyve" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bhyve</a> <a href="https://tilde.zone/tags/ZFS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZFS</a> <a href="https://tilde.zone/tags/OpenZFS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenZFS</a> <a href="https://tilde.zone/tags/NAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NAS</a>

Dendrobatus AzureusA fabulous amount of source notes pop up {quotescsi_all.h started out life as a work by Julian Elischer to add SCSI support to CMU Mach 2.5. It was 373 lines. Julian ported this to 386BSD, included in the 386BSD patch kit and incorported into FreeBSD at its creation. Justin used this file when writing CAM, and imported it with the initial CAM import, but only 30% (100 lines) of the original remained. Justin moved from bitfields to bytes in structures, dropped the complex unions, and renamed many structures to have their length appended. Only about 30 structure names and about 40 <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/defines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#defines</a> remained from the original. The define names were taken directly from the SCSI standard with spaces replaced by '_', so had no creativity. Apart from the license comment, there were no comments retained (all the comments in the CAM import were written by Justin and Ken). Even at that time, Justin and Ken could have put their copyrights and names and moved to an acknowledgement of Julian.In the almost 30 years since that original import, this file has grown to 4500 lines. Kenneth Merry, Alexander Motin and Justin Gibbs write 85% of the file's lines, if mechanical commits are omitted. Other contributors contributed less than %5 each of the file.Replace the original license (which lacked a copyright even and has been criticized as ambiguous) with FreeBSD's standard 2-clause license. Add copyrights for Justin, Ken and Alexander, with the date ranges they contributed to the file. Add a note about the origin of the file to acknowledge Julian's original work upon which all this was built, though it's become a ship of Theseus in the mean time, built and rebuild many times.On an absolute scale, there's less than 1% of the current file with lines from the original, and those are named after the names in the SCSI standards and likely wouldn't qualify for copyright protection.Sponsored by: Netflix Reviewed by: mav, ken Differential Revision: reviews.freebsd.org/D49016End Quote} ^ZHow wonderful to have learned this now<a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/bash" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bash</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/csh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#csh</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/ksh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ksh</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/sh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sh</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/freeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#freeBSD</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/SCSI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SCSI</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/bhyve" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bhyve</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/jails" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#jails</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/ZFS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZFS</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#programming</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/POSIX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#POSIX</a><a href="https://codeberg.org/FreeBSD/freebsd-src/commit/1016b3c344350fa5968f16852e5e4e388c51d817" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://codeberg.org/FreeBSD/freebsd-src/commit/1016b3c344350fa5968f16852e5e4e388c51d817</a>
