PCI I/O Port, IRQ, DMA problem in Solaris 9 x86

H, I am writing a PCI RADI card driver. I have a problem about the PCI resource.
After Solaris system call my driver's attach routine, and my driver map the PCI resource
(I/O port, DMA, PCI) success. How do I to verify that the mapping is correct?
Is there any superuser command to show the mapping resource?
Or I can write code to display these resource in my driver?
Do anyone have sample code?
Regards,
Roger

Your update_drv command looks ok.
AFAIR, update_drv was a new feature for one of the S9 update
releases. I'm not sure if it was present in the first S9 release, and if
it supports all of the update_drv features from S10.
Maybe the S9-x86 patch 118462-01 helps.
If it still doesn't work with that patch applied, just add the new
driver binding to the /etc/driver_aliases file and reboot:
skge "pci1558,700"

I had similar problems several months ago. I suspect this happens when host pc does not have floppy drive(or bios somehow misreports it) as it was in my case. Solaris 8 seems to work fine in the same environment, so I keep using it for now. Possible workaround might be to use DCA from Solaris 8: Installation of Sol9 started just fine after I entered Sol8 DCA and asked it to boot from Sol9 CD.
Hope this problem will be fixed in subsequent Sol9 releases.

Several mysterious problems with Solaris 11 x86 install

Hi folks,
I've recently installed Solaris 11 x86 as a replacement for Solaris 9 SPARC on an Ultra 2 machine. I like the operating system, but I've promptly acquired some mysterious problems. The computer is a Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo E2500 with a Pentium 4 HT 3.06 GHz processor, 2 GB RAM, an 80 GB SATA disk and a 147 GB SCSI disk.
I have had a few occasions on which the screen goes totally blank, the monitor claims that there is no signal, and I have to restart the machine. However, with the blank screen, the hard drive activity light is sometimes still flashing. This happens predictably when I try to log off (as opposed to shutting down) and when I use Totem media player and click on anything inside the Totem window. The motherboard has built-in graphics and brief specifications can be found here:
http://uk.ts.fujitsu.com/rl/servicesupport/techsupport/professionalpc/ESPRIMO/Datasheets/ds_esprimo_edition_e2500.pdf
Yesterday my PS/2 keyboard started causing the motherboard to beep crazily when I use it. It beeps rapidly 4 times, then prints the expected character. However, the problem doesn't occur at the initial log in screen. The mouse cursor has also gone beserk on one occasion, flying all over the screen (I had this problem with a previous PC, but a different OS, and thought it was a hardware fault, which I why I got this new computer). With the keyboard problem, the machine is basically unusable. However, it is configured as a dual boot machine, and the keyboard problem isn't present with Windows XP.
There are also a few smaller, odd problems. Occasionally all the icons vanish from my Gnome desktop. The command prompt also mysteriously changed from $chris@pluto to $bash-4.1 just before the keyboard problem appeared, although that might have had something to do with me copying my home directory to a different disk and editing the /etc/auto_home file (moving the home directory worked fine). Also, unlike with Solaris 9 SPARC, I find that I have to have external SCSI devices switched on at boot time, should I want to use them later. That's a pain. With Solaris 9, I could run "boot -r" when I first attached the device, then switch on the SCSI devices and mount them whenever I wanted.
After the useful advice I received here about "more" and "less", I thought I'd post these problems and see if anyone can help. I'd really appreciate some advice. Can anyone identify likely causes for these problems? Which problems can I expect to solve and which do I have to live with?
Many thanks,
Chris Tidy

Try elxl0 :-) This is: E L X L - zero :-) instead of: qfe0.

Gcc problems on Solaris 10 X86

I'm using Solaris 10 x86 and gcc from /usr/sfw/bin and have come across a couple of problems:
which gcc
/usr/sfw/bin/gcc
gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/sfw/lib/gcc/i386-pc-solaris2.10/3.4.3/specs
Configured with: /builds/sfw10-gate/usr/src/cmd/gcc/gcc-3.4.3/configure prefix=/usr/sfw with-as=/usr/sfw/bin/gas with-gnu-as with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld without-gnu-ld enable-languages=c,c++ --enable-shared
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.4.3 (csl-sol210-3_4-branch+sol_rpath)
Problem 1
cat ll.cc
#include <signal.h>
int CS;
gcc -c ll.cc
ll.cc:2: error: expected unqualified-id before numeric constant
ll.cc:2: error: expected `,' or `;' before numeric constant
CS is defined in the file /usr/include/sys/regset.h as:
#define CS 15
I've changed the code to use MYCS instead and this gets around the problem. Does anyone have a more elegant solution to the problem?
Problem 2
In a g++ compilation I have a file that includes cpp_type_traits.h.
The compilation fails with:
/usr/sfw/lib/gcc/i386-pc-solaris2.10/3.4.3/../../../../include/c++/3.4.3/bits/cpp_type_traits.h:69: error: expected unqualified-id before "namespace"
The relevant line in cpp_type_traits.h is:
namespace __gnu_internal
Knowing rather little about g++ I've been Googling for an hour but not found anyone else with the same problem.
Many Thanks
Andy

I'm not fully sure what might cause your problems since I'm not a programmer myself. However, I do wonder if the gcc version located in /opt/sfw/bin may do you some good. When all other options fair I'd recommend getting the Studio 11 package and just use the cc compiler provided by Sun themselves. Its free anyway.

3-Com NIC Card Networking Problems on Solaris 10 (x86)

Hi,
I have Solaris 10 OS installed on a PC. I am having trouble getting my machine to ping other machines on the same network. I have executed the following commands:
#ifconfig elxl0 plumb
#ifconfig elxl0 192.168.100.181 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
When I try to ping another machine on the same lan, I don't get a response. I have even did a the sysconfig command and reconfigured my networking and it still does not work. I have tried different network cable as well. I have looked in the master file. I see the driver for my NIC, so I know it is supported by Solaris 10. Can anyone help me?

Here is some more info on my problem and a couple of things I have tried to do to resolve the issue :
I executed the command "prtconf-pv". I found information on my NIC Card, which is a 3-Com 3C905B-TX Etherlink XL 10/100. I found my vendor id - 10b7 and my device id - 9055. I then checked "driver_aliases" file to see if I could find an entry in this file and I did see my vendor id and device id. I would then conclude that Solaris knows my PCI vendor/device-id combination and maps them to elxl driver.
I have also tried a different cable that i know works and still nothing.
I also found from research in Sol. 10 that there is file in addition to hosts, hostname.elxl0, defaultrouter that has to be modifed. That file is ipnodes. I checked the file, and my ip address / hostname is noted in the file. Is it possible I have a bad NIC? I thought about swapping it out for another one that I know works, but it is an onboard NIC. Well, if anyone has and additional info, I would greatly appreciate it.

There is a fair amout of discussion regarding this controller on opensolaris.

However I am not sure this should cause your drive to be not recognized.
Could you try opensolaris version ?

NIC problems on Solaris 10 X86

This has probably been asked/answered before but I couldn't locate it. My X86 install finally went through but I can't see weither (of 2) NIC cards, one is a D-link DFE-530 TX + and I have added the driver_alias commands but still can't see anything but localhost from ifconfig -a, any help would be appreciated...been up for 24 hours now.

There have been at least two different cards from Dlink, with similar model names.
There is the discontinued DFE-530TX and there is a current DFE-530TX+ model.
You may need to take the card out and confirm the actual model.
While you do that, examine the card and find its actual ethernet chipset.
If I recall corectly, the older card uses the DEC21140 family chip, which works natively in Solaris(x86) 7, 8, 9, and 10.
Dlink's website suggests the TX+ card uses the Realtek RTL8139 chipset,
and Dlink has a Unix driver package available for download for that 'plus' card,
although it is bundled inside their Windows-formatted self-extracting driver file for some ungodly reason.
So ... if you have the older card, it should just work.
And ... If you have the newer card, then you may as well get the drivers straight from RealTek.

Neo2 nforce3 dma problem

hello,
ive got a problem with an msi neo2 nforce3 ultra board. Ive got a problem with enabling dma (i think). I thought the problem was related to the nforce3 pata drivers, so i have replaced them with the generic windows drivers but my problem remains. Device manager reports that dma is enabled on my optical drivers, but im not convinced: if i use the xp system information utility dma is only reported as enabled on the floppy drive controller (channel2) and the direct memory access controller (channel4). Also, i have a soundblaster audigy zs, which when i run its diagnostics utility reports that dma is not enabled. I also have a utility called dmacheck which reorts that no ide/atapi devices detected.
My dvd playback (pre-pressed) is very slow, i have to set the sound to 2 speaker stereo to get the picture not to stutter(powedvd), and accessing data disks using the opticals is also very slow.
Also, i have no pci bus mastering driver listed under ide/ata/atapi controllers in device manager. I thought this may be part of my problem, but i have hunted high and low for this driver for the nforce3 ultra with no luck: should i have this driver installed? if so where can i get it?
the dma problem started when i flashed the firmware on my sony optical, but i have verified the flash is fine and that the drive is not the problem (i have obtained an identicle sony dvd drive and have the same problem).
Any help would be much appreciated. Ive been stuck on this one for a while now!
bobil

bobil,
I would start by removing the nVidia Drivers and then installing the latest nVidia nForce Drivers. It could be you have a bad install of the Drivers.
Take Care,
Richard

Metainit/striping problem on Solaris 9

We are trying to deploy the Apple XServe RAIDS to customers running Solaris 9. The issue is that Solaris 9 will not recognize a device/LUN that is > 2TB. (No problem with Solaris 10) In trying to solve this problem, we sliced a 7 disk (4.09 TB) RAID into 3 slices. This presents three 1.36TB disks to the Solaris system. Basically, we have 6 disks being presented across both controllers to Solaris. They are direct connected from the XServe to a dual port QLogic HBA. The problem comes in when you try to create a stripe/concatenation across the logical devices being presented. (The disks are being presented on C4 and C5)
Results from a format AFTER I split both 7 disk RAID5s into 3 slices.

Trying to initialize a 6 device stripe via Solaris Volume Manager (AKA disksuite)

I receive the following error:
metainit: hostname: c4t600039300001F461d1s0: overlaps with device in d77
I tried to do a work around where I create three striped devices then concatenate them:

metainit -f d77 2 1 c4t600039300001F461d0s0 1 c5t600039300001F2ECd0s0
I was able to create the first metadevice d77 using one logical LUN from each controller.
When I tried to create a second metadevice across the controllers: (Using d1 from each controller)
metainit -f d78 2 1 c4t600039300001F461d1s0 1 c5t600039300001F2ECd1s0
metainit: hostneme: c4t600039300001F461d1s0: overlaps with device in d77
I received the same error.
In doing some reaearch, it seems the problem is due to a problem with the disk duplication process, disk device IDs stored on the disks are not unique. I was curious if this is the problem that Apple presents the split disks with the SAME diskid? Has anybody else successfully created stripes (due to a LUN size limit) across the disk successfully on a Solaris system?

I contacted Sun and here is an explination from them. I also noticed when I queried the Xserver RAIDS, there were no serial numbers.
Solaris 9 can support a 16Tb filesystem, but there is a scsi limitation on the device of 2Tb. So you are stuck with striping together several smaller devices if you want a single filesystem above 2Tb.
The problem you are having when metainit reports an overlap comes from the way Solaris Volume Manager identifies devices. The portion of the scsi inquiry that is returned is always unique when Sun firmware is involved, but in your case is not unique.
You may be able to make use of the appended infodoc to avoid this problem. I see no evidence of our having tested this with your particular scenario, but it has been successful in similar cases.
You might also inquire of whoever supports your storage device whether a mode is supported whereby the device's inquiry strings can be made unique.
Here is the steps he wanted me to take and the results. I still can not get the Xserve RAIDS to generate a unique device id:
Step 1
Determine the vendor and product strings. You can run these commands:
# netstat -k | grep -i vendor
# netstat -k | grep -i product
netstat -k | grep -i vendor

Problems installing Sol 10 x86 on Compaq Harware

Please Help! I am a newbie to Solaris and I am trying to understand some of these postings in this thread. I am trying to install Sol 10 on a Compaq DL360 with dual proc 1.26 MHZ and 3 GB RAM. It has an imbeded 5i array controller with two 36 GB drives attached set up as RAID 0.
I have downloaded the Sol 8 UTI disk for the controller and seem to be able to successfully add the driver for installation. Note: I renamed the directory from Sol_28 to Sol_210 as instructed earlier in this thread. I get a warning message after loading the driver that says :
Solaris could not detect a primary disk.....
However, the system has detected a disk controller without a driver, and assumes that the following disk maps to the primary disk:
/pic@0,0/pcie11,4040@1/cmdk@0,0:a
Choose continue to confirm the Solaris bootpath of the primary disk.
I press F2 to continue.
I continue with setup and choose Interactive text console. It boots the kernel then I get some memory resource overlap warnings but setup continues. Then I get two warnings that read...

Setup continues...
I choose language as English and get same two warnings again. Setup continues. I enter network config info, and set root password then continue. Then installation starts and I get this error...
One or more disks are found, but one of the following problems exist:
Hardware Failure
Unformatted diskThen I push f2_ok and I get kicked out to shell.
What am I missing? Did I miss something? I tried this on another machine, a Compaq Proliant 800 with a 4200 controller with same results. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

FYI: I tried yet another version of solaris as i found out that theres a bug in the 64-bit kernel on update 4 for alot of new processors. Solaris 10 x86 update 7 did the trick! :). Installed right away on a standard 'Solaris 10 (64 bit)' VM. I still find it strange that the most recent version of solaris 10 fails to even start the installation.

Solaris 10 x86 goes to reboot mode after installing Sun x4 PCIe Quad card

I have an x4200 server installed with solaris 10 x86 11/06 OS. After installing the OS it comes up fine.
Now, When I install an SUN x4 PCIe Quad Gigabit Ethernet card on PCI slot 0 and on the power up server does not comes up. It gpes into the reboot mode.
bash-3.00# uname -a
SunOS server1-1 5.10 Generic_118855-33 i86pc i386 i86pc
Does any one has face this issue..

Solution found:
First tried to login using "console login" when solaris booted up, before the desktop login window appeared. Then, run command "kdmconfig", changed the video device to X86 VESA compatible device, which is from the x86 driver and porting kit for solaris, then test/save and exit. After that, reboot the system. Now it is working, not perfect though (due to my old monitor) :)-

Solaris 10 x86 (6/06) doesn't recognize Intel PRO 1000 PCI Express Gigabit

Hi dear all!
Have problem with onboard Intel Dual port ( Intel 82563EB ) Gigabit Controller on supermicro 5000P(Blackford) chipset's board
X7DB8R-8 under Solaris 10 x86 6/06.
Solaris 10 doesn't recognize this onboard controllers.
And drivers on Intel & Sun web sites aren't available.
In what way can I make work these onboard network cards under Solaris 10?
Thanks all in advance who responds.

HI Sam,
No at this time, i haven't issue for this problème.
But, i try intel card soon with a mac pro.
The xserve detecte the card, but not recognize the drivers for it.
maybe one day, i have good new.

Solaris 10 x86 ipfilter aggr problem

Hi, all.
I have Solaris 10 x86 machine
Kernel Patch: 142910-17
IP patch: 143593-05
The problem shortly:
I am using two network LACP interfaces
aggr125030 contains e1000g1 interface
aggr150031 contains e1000g2 interface
Aggregation 31 was created by:
dladm create-aggr -P L3 -l active -T short -d e1000g2 31
and works fine.
If I add policy based routing rule:
pass out quick on aggr125030 to aggr150031:y.y.y.y proto tcp from x.x.x.x/32 to any port = 25 keep state
traffic matches the rule (it is observed through ipfstat -inohv command) but the rule doesn't work.
How did I decide? I have also ipnat rule
map aggr150031 <skipped>
so if PBR works, the ipnat rule is working too.
If I remove the second aggregation interface aggr150031 and pass the physical interface explicitly, the rule works:
pass out quick on aggr125030 to e1000g2:y.y.y.y proto tcp from x.x.x.x/32 to any port = 25 keep state
as well as the ipnat's one.
x.x.x.x is IP address of e1000g2 interface (or aggr150031)
y.y.y.y is IP address of router for x.x.x.x IP address
It seems that PBR for Ipfilter doesn't support aggregation interfaces for outbound.
Also if you combine vlans 125 and 150 withing one LACP (aggr150031 is replaced by aggr150030 and one physical interface is used for both vlans trunking), the PBR rule doesn't work too.
What shall I do?

The problem was caused by the ipfilter behavior - ignorance of interface alias. My ipnat rule was:
map aggr150031:1 ...
I have changed into:
map aggr150031 ...
and the things began to work.
Sorry for the noise.
