<HTML><BODY><br>Hey Randy!<br><br><br>I could hardly believe what I just saw :)<br>I thank you from the bottom of my heart (also in the name of the overall hardcore OpenSolaris community) for taking the time to deal with us here :)<br><br>These thanks also go to Alan because presumably he helped in making you aware of my appeal for help.<br>Sadly I can only continue on all these OpenSolaris related matters after Wednesday.<br>I'm online only for a minute.<br><br>But be sure that I release all the long promised things already mentioned directly afterwards, after Wednesday asap in accord speed:<br><br>{<br>#0.) last week's KMS diffs, to be created <br>#1.) Thunderbird42 diffs and bins pkg for x86<br>#2.) and cpu related kernel diffs for Illumos developed in 2013 allowing the Flash-Plugin 11.x to function, <br>#3.) plus the cw for userland [at the end of the mentioned series, because it has the smallest priority to non-OpenSXCE distros]<br>}<br><br>What you suggested sounds great (that a new port is on the horizon, even making it simpler for us here in the future to upgrade the code directly from LinUX git).<br><br>Your other outlined sugegstions and steps are also correctly hitting the nail.<br>I already walked through the steps you mentioned. Because without implementing such mempools myself (and I'm not enrtirely sure in which way your calls to it expect it to be implemented) I cannot use mempools on Illumos anyway, because according to S11.3's gfx_private.h they were implemented in a file now belonging to the misc/amd64/gfx_private submodule which does not even exists at all on Illumos: gfxp_bitmap.c<br><br>So this having said I didn't have any other option (while continuing to avoid implementing such mempools myself [which is, as you say, not a recommened idea anyway]). That's why I already did perform the steps you suggsted last week.<br>It works great without all newer Sol11.1++ functions and structs, only - although there is no reason - on earlier releases (S11.0 and Illumos) it instatly causes a TRAP and panics the host, leaving even Xorg.log.0 empty (not yet written to disk).<br>Booting into the kernel debugger shows the backtrace, as explained last week in the following link, 2 lines deeper:<br><br>Last week I announced that lucky/sad success/but_not_on_11.0_or_Illumos status and maybe you didn't see it, because here was quite some activity on this list: <br><a href="http://openindiana.org/pipermail/oi-dev/2015-November/003858.html" data-mce-href="http://openindiana.org/pipermail/oi-dev/2015-November/003858.html">http://openindiana.org/pipermail/oi-dev/2015-November/003858.html</a><br>(sorry for the numerous spelling errors)<br><br><br>Once again: Your post really gives me hope we soon get it functioning.<br>I think we are less than one line of code apart from having it working also on S11.0 and Illumos.<br><br>Of yourse I'm glad to year that you take the time to analyse the dump.<br>Normally such things are doable, but in this case I failed.<br><br>I publish the dump files (several, also from S11.0) - although the problem always happens at the same point and looks identical - and the bins plus src diffs directly in about 48 hours.<br>I could attach the bins right now, but I'm afaraid it is some later version I messed with and recompiled.<br>Therefore it is certainly better to do this slowly and completely, in a proper release in 2 days.<br>Fortunately I took snapshots at each milestone.<br><br><br>Once again: THANK YOU <a href="http://us.123rf.com/450wm/mybaitshop/mybaitshop1202/mybaitshop120200066/12701366-thank-you-word-cloud-concept-with-great-terms-in-different-languages-such-as-merci-mahalo-danke-grac.jpg" data-mce-href="http://us.123rf.com/450wm/mybaitshop/mybaitshop1202/mybaitshop120200066/12701366-thank-you-word-cloud-concept-with-great-terms-in-different-languages-such-as-merci-mahalo-danke-grac.jpg">http://us.123rf.com/450wm/mybaitshop/mybaitshop1202/mybaitshop120200066/12701366-thank-you-word-cloud-concept-with-great-terms-in-different-languages-such-as-merci-mahalo-danke-grac.jpg</a><br><br><br><br><br>cheers!<br><br>%mb<br><br><br><br></BODY></HTML>
