NetBSD下一个发行版啥时候出来啊？

[John.Fu]

RT，5.1出来有八九个月了，新版本也该出来了吧。

[leo]

NetBSD最新似乎没有什么大变化，OpenBSD的4.9除了大内存支持以外也没有什么让人眼前一亮的新东西，不知道老兄期待什么内容？

[John.Fu]

5.1即不支持我的无线网卡，也不支持有线网卡，我就期待能支持我的网卡，哪怕只支持其中一种，烦S了。

[leo]

网卡是什么型号？google一下网上的解决方法，或者关注一下NetBSD变化，也可以尝试一下安装head版试试。

[John.Fu]

Intel wifi 5100 和 atheros 8131。对了，不知道我外加一个USB的无线网卡行不行？版主有什么好建议？

[leo]

似乎有尝试成功的，John.Fu兄自己试试，摘自： http://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-use ... 07315.html

I finally got my iwn 5100 device working on netbsd-5.

Here is my solution for iwn 5100 AGN devices on netbsd-5
Tested on netbsd release 5.0.2, should work for any netbsd-5 release

After extracting the netbsd-5 kernel sources, change the following
files in /usr/src/sys/dev/pci:

1. Replace the netbsd-5 version of if_iwn.c (revision 1.22.4.3) with
revision 1.33 of the same file

2. Replace the netbsd-5 version of if_iwnreg.h (revision 1.4) with
revision 1.6 of the same file

3. Replace the netbsd-5 version of if_iwnvar.h (revision 1.4) with
revision 1.6 of the same file

4. Add the firmware (iwlwifi-5000-1.ucode) for the 5100 AGN devices to

the /libdata/firmware/if_iwn directory (download it from Intel's website)

5. Apply the following patch in the /usr/src/sys/dev/pci directory and
then build and install the new kernel:
(This patches if_iwn.c revision 1.33 with two small changes for netbsd-5
compatibility and adds necessary revisions to pcidevs, pcidevs.h,
pcidevs_data.h, and pcireg.h).

Well I need to do more work on this...


I got a chance to test netbsd-5 my iwn patch on a real wireless network and it was not functional on netbsd-5. I could get a dhcp lease, but no functional connection. When I tried to ping the router, I got the following message on the console:

arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo on iwn0 for 192.168.6.1


I used a netbsd-current kernel using the same version of if_iwn.c as in my patch to netbsd-5 (netbsd-current kernel from late September 2009) on the same wireless network and it is functional with full internet connectivity on iwn0.

Subject: iwn 5100AGN for netbsd-5 success



I saw in the mailing list archives a few weeks back that iwn(4) for 5100/5300 AGN devices was working in netbsd-current but hasn't been ported to netbsd-5 yet. I decided to try and get it working in netbsd-5 with minimal changes to the netbsd-5 kernel sources and have had some success.

Seven files were patched in src/sys/dev/pci: if_iwn.c, if_iwnreg.h if_iwnvar.h, pcidevs, pcidevs.h pcidevs_data.h, and pcireg.h.

The details:


1. Used the first of version of src/sys/dev/if_iwn.c that works with the 5100/5300 iwn devices from the current branch (revision 1.33), but removed the two lines associated with revision 1.25 of src/sys/dev/if_iwn.c. The iwn(4) driver failed in netbsd-5 with that revision included - that revision was part of a major commit to the netbsd-current kernel networking code.

2. Used the first version of src/sys/dev/if_iwnreg.h that works with the 5100/5300 iwn devices from the current branch (revision 1.6).

3. Used the first version of src/sys/dev/if_iwnvar.h that works with the 5100/5300 iwn devices from the current branch (revision 1.6).)

4. Edited the src/sys/dev/pcidevs file to add the new iwn devices (these changes are derived from additions to pcidevs between revision 1.967 and 1.968 of src/sys/dev/pcidevs, but I changed "Pro/Wireless" to "PRO/Wireless" for consistency with the other devices):

product INTEL PRO_WL_5100AGN_1 0x4232 PRO/Wireless LAN 5100AGN Mini-PCI Adapter product INTEL PRO_WL_5300AGN_1 0x4235 PRO/Wireless LAN 5300AGN Mini-PCI Adapter product INTEL PRO_WL_5300AGN_2 0x4236 PRO/Wireless LAN 5300AGN Mini-PCI Adapter product INTEL PRO_WL_5100AGN_2 0x4237 PRO/Wireless LAN 5100AGN Mini-PCI Adapter product INTEL PRO_WL_5350AGN_1 0x423a PRO/Wireless LAN 5350AGN Mini-PCI Adapter product INTEL PRO_WL_5350AGN_2 0x423b PRO/Wireless LAN 5350AGN Mini-PCI Adapter

5. Regenerated src/sys/dev/pcidevs.h and src/sys/dev/pcidevs_data.h using 'make -f Makefile.pcidevs'

6. Edited the src/sys/dev/pcireg.h file to add the changes that were included in the changes to pcireg.h when the support was added for the new iwn(4) devices in netbsd-current. It is essentially revision 1.57 (the netbsd-5 version) of pcireg.h patched with the changes between revision 1.60 and 1.61 of pcireg.h.

7. Added the updated firmware for the 5100 AGN to my filesystem.


The 5100 iwn(4) device in my Toshiba laptop successfully runs 'dhclient iwn0' in my patched netbsd-5 kernel (I am using the 5.0.2 release) where it listened for dhcp offers, but I haven't tested it with an actual wireless network in range yet to see if it makes a connection - I assume it will work with a network in range; if it doesn't when I try it I'll post a followup message.

The actual patchfile against the netbsd-5 kernel is too big to post here (about 300K) because the difference in if_iwn.c between the netbsd-5 version (revision 1.22.4.3 I think) and revision 1.33 is rather large.

多谢！
既然 current 里都可以用，相信很快也会 port 到发行版吧，再忍忍MS Windows。

[sadriver]

我也想知道啥时候出6.0.我拿NetBSD来做服务器的，所以版本升级与否对我来说意义不大，只是FreeBSD都9.0了，我看着不忿，呵呵。

其实更希望NetBSD把packages做好，那个SWFTools的包我都等了2了年多了，我就是不愿意编译安装不行吗？，呵呵。

[leo]

个人感觉这个无所谓了，只要是功能没有特别的改进，实际上版本号变化与否也不太重要，尤其是做服务器的，不太愿意系统经常升级，老版本稳定即可，否则大家都要跟着折腾，像OpenBSD系统一年后就没有维护了，所以如果用它做服务器，要想保持没有官方公布的漏洞就至少要一年升级一次，这点上感觉还是有些Linux发行版和NetBSD舒服些，版本更新抓得紧，但版本升级到不是很催人。国外主机的很多Linux上还在用openssh 4.x版，也没见出什么问题。

自然，如果有新硬件的驱动问题除外，不过也可以用current的。
