Sorry to answer to my own posts, but I have some more progress here.
1. I have been able to compile a real Debian package of userland ppp
for kfreebsd. It still has some rough edges (like dh_make templates
lying around) but it's working generally well.
2. I've been able to compile ppp with netgraph support.
3. PPPoE, however, is still out of reach because netgraph refuses to
work.
Here's what I get when I try to connect through PPPoE:
# ppp
Working in interactive mode
Warning: Add! route failed: ff02::/32: errno: Network is unreachable
Using interface: tun0
ppp ON roadkiller> dial eicat
Warning: Cannot create netgraph socket node: Invalid argument
ppp ON roadkiller> quit
ktrace shows me the following trace:
2828 ppp CALL socket(PF_NETGRAPH,SOCK_DGRAM,0x2)
2828 ppp RET socket 2
(here we see the socket gets created correctly...)
2828 ppp CALL sendto(0x2,0x80afc88,0x38,0,0xbfbfd196,0)
2828 ppp RET sendto -1 errno 22 Invalid argument
(...but we can't write to it)
2828 ppp CALL close(0x2)
2828 ppp RET close 0
2828 ppp CALL write(0x1,0x2823e000,0x3e)
2828 ppp GIO fd 1 wrote 62 bytes
"Warning: Cannot create netgraph socket node: Invalid argument
"
2828 ppp RET write 62/0x3e
Has anybody got netgraph to work properly on debian kfreebsd yet?
Getting there though ... :)
A.
PS: I'll publish the debian package somewhere for review as soon as I
have some time to cleanup the cruft lintian reports...
