4. Open Issues

  • FreeBSD/i386 10.3-RELEASE running as a guest operating system on VirtualBox can have a problem with disk I/O access. It depends on some specific hardware configuration and does not depend on a specific version of VirtualBox or host operating system.

    It has been reported that instability may be present on virtual machines running on other hypervisors, such as Xen or KVM.

    It causes various errors and makes FreeBSD quite unstable. Although the cause is still unclear, disabling unmapped I/O works as a workaround. To disable it, choose Escape to loader prompt in the boot menu and enter the following lines from loader(8) prompt, after an OK:

    set vfs.unmapped_buf_allowed=0
     boot

    Note that the following line has to be added to /boot/loader.conf after a boot. It disables unmapped I/O at every boot:

    vfs.unmapped_buf_allowed=0
  • FreeBSD/i386 10.3-RELEASE installed on ZFS may crash during boot when the ZFS pool mount is attempted while booting an unmodified GENERIC kernel.

    As described in /usr/src/UPDATING entry 20121223, rebuilding the kernel with options KSTACK_PAGES=4 has been observed to resolve the boot-time crash. This, however, is not an ideal solution for inclusion in the GENERIC kernel configuration, as increasing KSTACK_PAGES implicitly decreases available usermode threads in an environment that is already resource-starved.

    Taking into account the heavy resource requirements of ZFS, in addition to the i386-specific tuning requirements for general workloads, using ZFS with the FreeBSD/i386 GENERIC kernel is strongly discouraged.

    If installing FreeBSD/i386 on ZFS, it is possible to configure the system after installation to increase the KSTACK_PAGES.

    When prompted by bsdinstall(8) to perform additional post-installation configuration to the system, select [ YES ].

    This procedure requires the system sources available locally. If the System source code distribution was not selected during installation, it can be obtained using svnlite:

    # mkdir -p /usr/src
     # svnlite co svn://svn.freebsd.org/base/releng/10.2 /usr/src

    Build the kernel-toolchain required to rebuild the kernel:

    # make -C /usr/src kernel-toolchain

    Next, create a kernel configuration file to increase the KSTACK_PAGES option:

    # printf "include GENERIC\noptions KSTACK_PAGES=4\n" > /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/ZFS

    Then build and install the ZFS kernel:

    # make -C /usr/src buildkernel KERNCONF=ZFS
     # make -C /usr/src installkernel KERNCONF=ZFS

    Warning:

    It is extremely important to take note that, by default, freebsd-update(8) will install the GENERIC kernel configuration, and as such, freebsd-update(8) consumers are strongly encouraged to avoid FreeBSD-provided kernel binary upgrades with such configurations.

  • Due to an incompatibility between bsdconfig(8) and pkg(8), packages included on the FreeBSD dvd installer will not be recognized by bsdconfig(8).

    To install packages from the dvd1.iso installer, create the /dist target directory, and manually mount the dvd1.iso ISO:

    # mkdir -p /dist
     # mount -t cd9660 /dev/cd0 /dist

    Note:

    Be sure to use the correct /dev device path for the dvd1.iso ISO installer.

    Next, set REPOS_DIR to the path of the repos/ directory within the installer so pkg(8) will use the correct repository metadata.

    If using sh(1):

    # export REPOS_DIR=/dist/packages/repos

    If using csh(1):

    # setenv REPOS_DIR /dist/packages/repos

    Note:

    Keep in mind that REPOS_DIR will need to be set again after the current shell session is terminated, if continuing to use the packages provided on the dvd1.iso installer.

    Finally, bootstrap pkg(8) from the ISO, and install required packages:

    # pkg bootstrap
     # pkg install xorg-server xorg gnome3 [...]
  • An issue was discovered where the netstat(1) -s option will cause a segmentation fault on systems with IPSEC compiled into the kernel. The issue was resolved in the stable/10 branch, and an Errata Notice is planned after 10.3-RELEASE is released.

    [2015-08-19] Resolved as FreeBSD-EN-15:12.

  • An issue was discovered that causes make(1) to generate noisy output when doing source-based upgrades from FreeBSD 9.3 and earlier. The issue was reported in PR 202277, and after investigation and determining the issue does not cause source-based upgrades to fail, a post-release Errata Notice is planned.

    [2015-08-19] Resolved as FreeBSD-EN-15:11.

  • An issue with FreeBSD virtual machines with vagrant was discovered that affects the VirtualBox where the virtual machine will not start on the initial boot invoked with vagrant up.

    The issue is due to the virtual machine MAC being unset, as FreeBSD does not provide a default Vagrantfile.

    It has been observed, however, that a subsequent invocation of vagrant up will allow the virtual machine to successfully boot, allowing access via vagrant ssh.

  • [2015-08-16] An error was discovered in the release notes for FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE regarding the drm device driver. The entry for r282199 states the driver was updated to match the version Linux® 3.8.13 version, however the entry should have noted the change affects device-independent code, and does not bring the drm driver fully in line with the stated Linux® version.

4. Open Issues

  • An issue was discovered with Amazon® EC2™ images which would cause the virtual machine to hang during boot when upgrading from previous FreeBSD versions. New EC2™ installations are not affected, but existing installations running earlier releases are advised to wait until the issue is resolved in an Errata Notice before upgrading. An Errata Notice to address this is planned following the release.

  • FreeBSD/i386 installed on ZFS may crash during boot when the ZFS pool mount is attempted while booting an unmodified GENERIC kernel.

    A system tunable has been added as of revision r286584 to make the kern.kstack_pages tunable configurable without recompiling the kernel.

    To mitigate system crashes with such configurations, chose Escape to loader prompt in the boot menu and enter the following lines from loader(8) prompt, after an OK:

    set kern.kstack_pages=4
     boot

    Add this line to /boot/loader.conf for the change to persist across reboots:

    kern.kstack_pages=4
  • A bug was diagnosed in interaction of the pmap_activate() function and TLB shootdown IPI handler on amd64 systems which have PCID features but do not implement the INVPCID instruction. On such machines, such as SandyBridge™ and IvyBridge™ microarchitectures, set the loader tunable vm.pmap.pcid_enabled=0 during boot:

    set vm.pmap.pcid_enabled=0
     boot

    Add this line to /boot/loader.conf for the change to persist across reboots:

    To check if the system is affected, check dmesg(8) for PCID listed in the "Features2", and absence of INVPCID in the "Structured Extended Features". If the PCID feature is not present, or INVPCID is present, system is not affected.

    vm.pmap.pcid_enabled=0
  • The Release Notes erroneously states the WITH_SYSTEM_COMPILER src.conf(5) option is enabled by default, however this was disabled prior to the final release build.

  • The release announcement stated "Wireless support for 802.11n has been added." This was intended to state "Wireless support for 802.11n has been added for additional wireless network drivers."

  • Some release notes pertaining to the Cavium ThunderX platform (the FreeBSD/arm64 reference platform) were omitted:

    • Support for the Cavium Virtualized NIC ethernet driver has been added. [r289550] (Sponsored by Cavium)

    • Support for the GICv3 and ITS device drivers has been added. [r286919] (Sponsored by Cavium)

    • Support for PCI Enhanced Allocation support has been added. [r296308] (Sponsored by Cavium)

  • [2016-10-20] Several recent Dell systems fail to find a bootable disk when the system boots in Legacy/BIOS/CSM mode, the boot disk is partitioned with GPT, and the Active flag in the Protective MBR is not set. To work around this issue, either configure the system to boot in UEFI mode, or choose the "GPT + Active" scheme. [r293860]

  • [2016-10-21] Support for sha512 and skein checksumming has been added to the ZFS filesystem. This was not mentioned in the release notes.

    Systems being upgraded from earlier FreeBSD releases with ZFS will see a message in zpool status output noting the pool is not at the latest version, and some features may not be enabled. Additional instructions on how to update ZFS pools to the latest version and update the boot blocks for all boot drives in the pool will also be provided in the output.

    This information is also documented in /usr/src/UPDATING, which is included if the src component is selected during installation.

  • [2016-10-21] The size of the GPT enabled ZFS boot blocks (/boot/gptzfsboot) has increased past 64K. Systems upgraded from older releases may experience a problem where the size of the existing "freebsd-boot" partition is too small to hold the new gptzfsboot.

    Systems where the boot partition is immediately followed by the swap partition, such as those installed via bsdinstall(8), can resize the swap partition slightly using the gpart(8) resize command, so space can be reclaimed to increase the size of the freebsd-boot partition.

  • [2016-10-21] Due to a bug in earlier versions of clang(1) that is difficult to work around in the upgrade process, to upgrade the system from sources via buildworld to -CURRENT or 11.0-RELEASE, it is necessary to upgrade machines running 9.x to at least revision r286035, or machines running 10.x to revision r286033. Source-based upgrades from 10.3-RELEASE are not affected. This differs from the historical situation where one could generally upgrade from anywhere on earlier stable branches, so caution should be exercised.
