Subject:Re: -current hangs during boot (UPDATING entry)

I'm beginning to think we need an updating entry.

1. Make sure /dev/random exists 'cd /dev && sh MAKEDEV std'

2. Make sure your kernel includes:

device random # Entropy device

3. Make sure /etc/rc is at rev 1.237 or higher.

4. Make sure /etc/rc.shutdown is at rev 1.13 or 1.15

5. At this time, remove ALL MFS filesystems from /etc/fstab. They can be hand mounted after bootup or via a local rc startup script.

6. Reboot your system via 'init 6' or 'shutdown -r now' (or similar). Do not use 'reboot'.

7. If at any time during the boot process a 'cntrl-t' shows a process hung in 'rndblk', hit 'cntrl-\', 'ls -al /etc > /dev/random', and then 'exit'. This should get your machine to boot for this session until you figure out which of the above are not done.

with the mfs enable, it hangs there right after FILESYSTEM checking, and with random_load set to YES, it hangs at ldconfig.

mount_mfs is blocking on "rndblk". Our /dev/*random is fubar'ed *again*.

I saw this the other day...

I've been examining the mfs code, and I'm not really sure why it needs to use random values...

When ldconfig hangs, it is in a mkstemp() call. The mkstemp() function probably uses random numbers to generate unique file names:

#0 0x8054340 in read () #1 0x804c966 in mktemp () #2 0x804ca33 in arc4random_stir () #3 0x804cad9 in arc4random () #4 0x804c791 in mktemp () #5 0x804c692 in mkstemp () #6 0x804886a in write_elf_hints () #7 0x8048818 in update_elf_hints () #8 0x8048c61 in main () #9 0x8048139 in _start ()
