Kernel accessing an IP in Hawaii

I'm using Little Snitch, and I found something strange. The Mac OS X Kernel was accessing an IP from road runner. In Hawaii. I'm not in Hawaii, and this strikes me as VERY strange. Especially since the IP includes res.rr.com, which is indicative of a residential IP address. What part of the Kernel could possibly want to access a residential IP in Hawaii?

I've completely erased my Mac, and did not restore from a time machine backup. The Mac OS X Kernel accessed another residential IP. This time, it was actually in my own state. I would think that the Skype process would be the one accessing all the IPs (and it certainly accesses a lot of them), but I guess it's not unreasonable to assume that it would use the Kernel somehow.
And, if by router you mean wireless router (like a Linksys wrt54g) then I am using one. If you mean something else, then I'm not sure.

Count number of disk accesses

Hi,
I'm facing a problem while coding some stuff for my thesis. I need to count the number of disk accesses. I know there's clock_t to do that in C++, but I cant seem to find any equivalent in Java. Can someone please help me in this matter? Thank you very much.

You can't do that in pure java. So if you really wantd it, you would need to learn JNI.Even then: most disc drivers use caching (read ahead) and most OSes
try to be smart too when it comes to raw disc access. Without any
kernel access it can't be done.
OTOH, most disc drivers keep some form of statistics that can be
queried.
kind regards,
Jos

How to begin a kernel module?

Hello,
I am new to solaris OS. Now I want to write a kernel module, which may be a simple (pseudo )file system. I have read some materials, such as "Writing a device driver" provided by docs.sun.com and "Slaris Internals", , but I have no idea to start. I wonder if ddi and dki functions are enough to implement a simple file system. Could someone please give me some guides for achieve my goal? Thank you !!!

Hello.
There are different kernel modules:
- Drivers
- streams modules
- misc. modules
- file systems and
- executable file formats
(I think there are even more types)
As far as I know only drivers and streams modules are documented. (Misc. modules are not documented but they are quite simple.)
As far as I know file system modules are not documented but I think the necessary DDI functions are present in the sys/include files of Solaris.
If your pseudo file system driver does not access anything which requires kernel access you might write an NFS file server that runs in user mode instead and mount your file system using "-F NFS". I think this is only a bit more difficult than writing a real file system driver. Note that the NFS protocol is well documented!

Syncing Issues: album art, cut-off songs

I have a 16GB iPod Touch that I've been syncing with my Windows Vista PC, seemingly without complications. It has only recently come to my attention that somewhere between my computer's library and my library on my iPod, something is messing up at random times. Full songs will become half-songs, 30-second songs, on the iPod. They are not damaged on my PC, but when they get uploaded to the iPod, they get messed up. If I re-upload them, sometimes the problem goes away, sometimes it cuts in a different spot. This is immensely frustrating, as I do not know how to fix it or what is causing it to begin with.
More recently I have discovered that all the work I have done organizing my library and getting everything to have album covers is wasted when I try to put these albums on my Touch. The album covers entirely disappear, and I have to copy and paste them in, which takes about five minutes per album (slow write speed?). Seems pretty lame to have a product focused on the ability to flip through albums visually, and then have the album art not automatically download with my music.
Any help?

I finally have the fix for this issue after a month of extensive debugging, experimentation, etc. on Windows Vista. I've reinstalled my whole **** computer twice, and Apple's phone support is a (bad) joke. They should just send me the script they use so I can read it myself.
First off, let's establish the symptoms of this problem:
* Data sync'ed to my iPod Touch would corrupt at random points. Sometimes songs would go through intact. Other times they would "glitch" partway through and the device would advance to the next song. Video files of a sufficient size -- like movies and T.V. episodes -- ALWAYS glitch at some point, which crashes the video playback and brings the device back to the video menu.
* Periodically, the iPod Touch would corrupt completely, which required a total firmware restoration. Rarely, these firmware restorations would also fail.
Now for the solution. It's a two-part deal:
1) Stop "Windows Search." It's not the major cause of sync problems, but it is a contributor, which is unsurprising given the amount of resources it hogs. Open the "Services" control panel item (Control Panel->System and Maintenance->Administrative Tools->Services, or just type "services.msc" into the "search" box on the Start Menu) and double-click "Windows Search." Click "stop" and set the startup type to "disabled," then click "OK."
2) This next part is going to be a bitter pill to swallow. When Microsoft launched Vista, it created a new "security feature" called PatchGuard which disallows direct kernel access to third-party applications. Antivirus vendors like McAfee, Symantec, Avast, etc. all have to use a kernel API rather than direct kernel access. However, Microsoft's own antivirus product -- Windows Live OneCare -- has complete access to the kernel without an API.
This appears to have created a weird situation with iTunes. I have reinstalled my system twice, both with 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Vista, and it seems that merely having a third-party antivirus product installed is sufficient to cause this problem. I've tried Avast, McAfee, Symantec and TrendMicro's products. The problem will not go away even if you turn off scanning, put in exceptions, etc. With Avast, I even terminated all of its processes and stopped its services. No dice. Just having a third-party antivirus product installed -- EVEN IF IT IS NOT RUNNING -- will cause this issue.
However, the second you UNINSTALL your third-party antivirus software, the problem goes away -- every time. I've sync'ed movies over and over again to test this, and it's definitely the primary source of the problem.
Obviously, running without antivirus software in this day and age is unacceptable, but there is one product that's free from this problem; in fact, it's the only product that still has direct kernel access. I'm running Windows Live OneCare on a 90-day trial right now, and after running more tests, I've confirmed my hypothesis. Any antivirus product with direct kernel access is fine. The problem is that Windows Live OneCare is the ONLY antivirus product right now with direct kernel access.
If you're running Windows Vista 32-bit, there may possibly be a second antivirus option. My Windows Vista-based gaming laptop uses Computer Associates' AV product, and it's never had a problem syncing with my iPod. I haven't really tested other products on it, though, so your mileage may vary. I can't say for certain that it's a safe bet.
So there you have it: one month of my nights and weekends down the toilet to fix an issue Apple and Microsoft should be handling. I feel like I've paid $500 for the privilege of being an unpaid Apple Q.A. tester. At this point, they should pay ME for the time I've wasted on this issue.

Number Range Buffering - Detailed Explanation needed!!!

Hi GURU's,
Could someone please explain me what does it mean by Number Range Buffering and where we use it and how we use it.
Wouls definitely assign points for the detailed explanation. Thanks in advance.

Hai ,
The number range buffer is used to increase performance when assigning
numbers. Instead of fetching the numbers each time from the database,
a single access to the buffer suffices. Only when the buffer is empty,
is it refilled from the database (table NRIV).
Use of the buffer has the following benefits:
· Accessing the main memory is a thousand times quicker than accessing
the database. Speed is particularly important for applications that
assign numbers frequently.
· Database accesses are always subject to the database transaction
mechanism. Once an application has assigned a number for one user, a
second user cannot assign a number until the first user has executed a
commit operation on the database. The application blocks further
assignment, and the second user has to wait, until the commit has been
executed.
· The number range buffer can also prevent deadlock situations, which
may arise from assigning different numbers in a different order.
Since the SAP kernel accesses table NRIV directly for the number range
buffer, the structure of the table must never be changed. This also
applies when adding new fields.
We can set number range buffering inSNRO t code.
Loading Master data - The number ranges buffer for the SID's resides
on the application server and reduces DB server accesses. If you set
e.g. the number range buffer for one InfoObject to 500, the system
will keep 500 sequential numbers in the memory and need not access the
database.
Hope this helps.

I installed thunderbird in windows 7 x64. when i am opening thunderbird system restarting

When I open thunderbird. My system is restarting, I am not finding any error msg in eventviewer also. Kindly suggest me

A restart would indicate a kernel mode problem. As Thunderbird does not have kernel access, I think perhaps it may be your anti virus (It will have kernel access) trying to scan the new application being loaded into memory.

Last software update - instability in Dock and Safari

I performed a software update a few days ago. Since then, I have been experiencing kernel access crashes from both the Dock and Safari when using the system. I also had Mail crash when I was not using the system, but I am unsure if that is related.
Rebooting the system did not help.
The system is usable, but Dock and Safari crash and restart 1-2 times daily. I am unable to find a consistant way to reproduce the crashes. I report each incident, but I am getting tired of writing the descriptions.

Yes; I submit the crash report each time it happens. I will hold onto the next one and post more details.

Number Range Object for a Infoobject

#####>>> whenever master data loading is done system creates SIDs, &
to create SIDs system look into a specific table, check the latest
number & generate the next no in the series, so to check this latest
no for every time ( every record) system needs to go back to database
table & generate the next no in series. when I do the buffering I
provide the whole series to system at application level so it need not
to go back to table to check the latest no & generate the next one. It
just picks up the next in available on application server.

ID's resides on the application server and reduces DB server accesses.
For example, if you set the number range buffer for one dimension to

not access the database
If you load a significant volume of transaction data (e.g., initial
load), increase the number range buffer. If possible, reset it to its
original state after the load in order to minimize unnecessary memory
allocation

The VI of I2C driver for reading and writing registers was functional in 6.1 but that same VI is not working for 7.0 & 7.1 version. WinIO is also used in generating the dll as OS is Windows2000. What could be the problem?

THIS IS THE CPP FOR READ. sIMILAR vi WAS MADE FOR WRITE

HI,
I'm not familiary wiht the WinIO functio that you are using here but there are a couple of thisngs to watch out for when doing low-level access.
The most common problem with low level IO functions is that if they were created for Win9x, they will not work under Win NT/2000/XP. NT based OSes require you to have kernel access to do any low level communication. Make sure that the WinIO library that you are using is aupported under Win2K.
Since you have the code for the dll available, you could attach LabVIEW as an external process in your C compiler and debug the dll; this can helps you track down the exact function that is failing.
Just my 2 cents.

Kernel panic / Internet access with a bad AirPort card

My iBook G4 started suffering kernel panics just over a week ago. They have rapidly increased in frequency to the extent that it can take several attempts to boot up because they have started occurring during the boot up process (originally they occurred after the iBook had been on for a while).
I've looked through the forum and have seen that there seem to be some common causes -RAM, AirPort card, or something to do with the HD. I ran disk utility on the HD and it didn't find any problems and I also successfully ran the 'repair disk permissions'. I have tried taking out the RAM -that didn't do anything. The kernel panic does frequently occur when I am either using Mail or Safari, but as I've said, it also occurs when I'm booting up -does the fact that it happens when I boot up mean that it cannot be the AirPort card (which incidentally is not under the keyboard -so it must be inside)?
Earlier today I switched off AirPort and was able to work on the computer for almost three hours without any kernel panic (but also without internet access). Less than a minute after switching it back on, it froze again.
If this does mean that the problem is with the AirPort card, I have a question about internet access. I use the iBook on a wireless network that stems from a modem with a Mac downstairs and I do not have any internet cables, or a phone line, in the room where the iBook is used. Is it possible to use something like AirPort Express even with a bad AirPort card? And does AirPort Express connect to the iBook, or to the main modem downstairs?
Apologies for so many questions and many thanks for any help you are able to give -this has been driving me around the bend for the past week?

Update:
An acquaintance who works for Apple suggested that before assuming that the problem was the AirPort card / buying further equipment, I should boot up with the original installation disk in and use the disk utility function to 'repair disk'. I did that and got a 'Volume Header needs minor repair' message. It repaired that & I restarted the iBook. I was able to do an update back-up to my external hard drive & all was fine until I switched AirPort back on -there was an instant kernel panic.
I figured that it couldn't hurt to run the Apple Hardware Test -did that and restarted again. Was able to open Mail (AirPort was on) but then the AirPort connection disappeared and the pointer froze, but there was no kernel panic screen. I had to force quit -restarted again. This time I was able to use Mail, downloaded a song on iTunes, and was on the internet for about 45mins before the connection disappeared and the pointer froze again. I could force quit the app but with a frozen pointer I ended up having to force quit again.
I waited a while and then booted up again (without problem) but this time I was told that there was no Airport card present! Shut down and reran the Hardware Test (which said that AirPort 'Passed'). When I restarted AirPort was briefly there but disappeared when I opened AirPort Utility and at this point the pointer also froze. I did force quit to get out of the app and then there was a kernel panic. Is this now pretty conclusive that the AirPort card is the problem?
I would appreciate any feedback -I've had a very frustrating week with this.
Thanks.

Kernel panic when I access a Flickr page

We used to be able to access flickr, but lately the mac crashes whenever a flickr page is accessed. Happens in safari or firefox. Yesterday when I tried the mac just froze, couldn't force quit or change application. Today I got a kernel panic, log copied below
Haven't made any changes to the system lately, but have a 10.4 DVD ready to roll. Will updating to Tiger make any difference?

Static library not accessed properly after Solaris Kernel patch update !

Hi,
We are facing a sever issue in our application after our customer updated the Solaris 10 kernel patch u9 to u10.
We have two static libraries libdlib.a and libDLIB.a, with exactly same code base, but these two libraries are scattered across the code base and linked by many shared objects in our application.
However, one of the shared objects that links to "libdlib.a" library tries to access a function from "libDLIB.a". This behavior is causing a crash at a later point, since that shared object is supposed to access the function from "libdlib.a". Moreover, we found this is happening through the use of dbx.
I'm unable to understand why this problem surfaced after kernel patch update, though still the shared object works fine on Solaris 10 u9 patch.
Flow is something like this :
1. syslogrecorder.so gets loaded by one of the processes.
2. syslogrecorder.so is linked to "libdlib.a" at compile time, so it uses "libdlib.a" function DLIB_LoadLibrary and gets a handle to all the function pointers of the loaded library ( The purpose of DLIB_LoadLibrary is to load a shared library dynamically using dlopen )
3. syslogrecorder.so tries to do a "dlsym" and to do that it needs access to the library handle which we got in previous call DLIB_LoadLibrary. So syslogrecorder.so calls another function from DLIB_ProcAddress, which actually gives back the access to the loaded shared library.
Here is a catch in step 3, it is supposed to call DLIB_ProcAddress from the libdlib.a but as we observed from dbx output it does so by calling DLIB_ProcAddress from libDLIB.a and hence fails to give back the access to loaded shared library, causing crash at a later point in code.
Can someone put some light here that why this could happen ??
Thanks
Kuldeep

To clarify: You did not modify or rebuild any of your binaries, but after installing a kernel patch, the application stopped working. Most likely, something about your application depended on a accidental behavior of the runtime loader. That accidental behavior changed due to the patch, and your application failed.
For example, if there is a circular dependency among shared libraries, the loader will break the cycle at an arbitrary point to establish an initialization order. By accident, that order might work, in the sense of not causing a problem. A change to the loader could cause the cycle to be broken at a different point, and the resulting initialization order could cause a now-uninitialized object to be accessed. I'm not saying this is what is wrong, but this is an example of a dependency on accidental loader behavior.
Finding your actual problem will require tracing the sequence of operations leading up to the failure. You are more likely to find help in a Solaris linker forum. AFAIK, there are currently no Oracle forums for Solaris, and the old OpenSolaris forums have been converted to mailing lists. You can try the "tools-linking" list found on this page:
http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo
I also suggest you review the paper on best practices for using shared libraries written by Darryl Gove and myself:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/servers-storage-admin/linkinglibraries-396782.html
If you have a service contract with Oracle, you can use your support channel to get more help.

I suggest going through customer support, I don't know what
          the resolution was. You might also try the security newsgroup,
          as no JMS code has been called by the application yet at
          the point the exception is thrown.

We are in the process of migrating from Weblogic 6.1 SP2 to SP5. We have an applet
that
subscribes to a JMS Topic. The applet is throwing the following exception with
SP5:
java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError: java.security.AccessControlException: access

Any ideas as to what I am missing?

Prasad,
It's one thing not to have to modify the security policy on the server,
but on a client and applets have even bigger restrictions this might
very well be the only way since the default applet restrictions would
not allow a lot of permissions granted by default for normal Java
applications.

Ram,
You are missing a permission grant in your policy file and the
SecurityManager doesn't allow the code to read that property.
You have either configured a different security manager or have the
wrong file in use.
For applets this file might be in the user's home directory and named
.java.policy
you need to have the following line somethere in it:
grant {
permission java.util.PropertyPermission "*", "read,write";
Which will allow any applet to read and write any JVM property.
Look at Java permissions is you need more info:

This is a WLS bug. You shouldn't have to modify security policy.
Please approach support for a fix.

I don't know what is happening. JMS hasn't been called yet -
          the applet is still setting up its initial context. You might want
          to try posting to the jndi (and perhaps rmi) newsgroup.
