I've recently set up a diskless client and I noticed something.
subnet mask 255.255.255.0 router 192.168.1.2 rootfs 192.168.1.100:/export/photon.freebsd/root
swapfs 192.168.1.100:/export/photon.freebsd hostname photon
Adjusted interface xl0
md_lookup_swap: Swap size is 131072 KB
Mounting root from nfs:nfs:/export/photon.freebsd/root
setrootbyname failed
NFS ROOT: 192.168.1.100:/export/photon.freebsd/root
NFS SWAP: 192.168.1.100:/export/photon.freebsd
$ swapinfo
Device 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Type
Everything looks normal except for swapinfo. It looks like nfs swapping is broken? Has anyone
seen this? I have tried this with md.ko as a module or compiled into the kernel with the same
results. I'm also using these flags in my kernel.
options BOOTP
options BOOTP_NFSROOT
options BOOTP_NFSV3
options BOOTP_COMPAT
My nfs server and diskless client are both running current from around may 25th. I'm also running
rpc.lockd and rpc.statd on the nfs server. I also tried setting option-129, but that did not
help. Why is option-129 limited to 4 bytes?
I have also seen that "setrootbyname failed" message for at least a year. Should that message be
removed or changed to something more useful?
Regards,
David Yeske
