Re: [9fans] Fossil on devfs

[Tharaneedharan Vilwanathan <vdharani@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I tried to set up mirroring and I got into some issues. With the
available documentation, I tried setting it up. I tried to just use
9pcf kernel. Since I figured that 'fs' is missing, I added it to pcf
config file, built a kernel and tried to use it. The config I tried is
similar to andrey's. But fossil doesnt seem to recognize
/dev/fs/fossil. Does it mean /dev/fs isnt perfect before fossil
starts? Shouldnt I be using 9pcf kernel at all? I tried to dig as much
as I can and found that '#k' is bound somewhere in
connectlocalfossil() and to me it looked like this function is called
both in pccpuf and pcf cases. What could be the problem, then? Am I
missing something?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks
dharani

-----------------------andrey's config sent on 11/23/05------------------
here's what i have:

plan9.ini:
fsconfig=/dev/sdC0/fscfg
bootargs=local!#S/sdC0/fossil

fscfg:
# cat /dev/sdC0/fscfg
fsdev:
mirror fossil /dev/sdC0/fossil /dev/sdD0/fossil
mirror isect /dev/sdC0/isect /dev/sdD0/isect
mirror arenas /dev/sdC0/arenas /dev/sdD0/arenas
mirror nvram /dev/sdC0/nvram /dev/sdD0/nvram
#

and fossil config:
# fossil/conf /dev/sdC0/fossil
srv -p fscmd
fsys main config /dev/fs/fossil
....
#

#k is bound by the kernel if it sees $fsconfig.
