Then try again after rebooting into the patched kernel. The interface queues will still run full and some packets will be dropped, but the driver should now recover automatically once iperf is stopped (kill the processes using pkill -x iperf). </p><p>The patch was written against -current but also applies to 7.7 release sources with few offsets.</p>
Bryan Steele :flan_beard:<p>Heads up, Alexandre Ratchov has switched <a href="https://bsd.network/tags/OpenBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OpenBSD</span></a> sndiod(8) to using per-program instead of per-client level (..:flan_peek:​ volume) control, so now for example only a single "app/chrome.level" setting appears in sndioctl(1) vs. chrome0, chrome1, etc.</p><blockquote><p>ratchov@ modified src/usr.bin/sndiod/*: sndiod: Use per-program level controls instead of per-client</p><p>All instances of the same program use a common level control. As a side effect, this removes the restriction on the maximum simultaneous clients sndiod can handle, which was increased to 32.</p><p>Tweaks from op@ and sthen@</p></blockquote><p>Context: <a href="https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-tech&amp;m=175009812401589&amp;w=2" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">marc.info/?l=openbsd-tech&amp;m=17</span><span class="invisible">5009812401589&amp;w=2</span></a></p>

I used to use <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/openbsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>openbsd</span></a> and <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>freebsd</span></a> back in the day, but I want to start to using them again because I love their documentation and how consistent everything in their systems are.</p><p>Another thing I love about bsds is their gradual evolution, they don't move fast and break things! In fact, breaking things seem to be their anti-modus operandi! </p><p>Currently I use <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/nixos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nixos</span></a>, and while I might keep it for my main pc, just for gaming, we shall see. </p><p>My current PC specs:<br>Intel i5<br>Radeon GPU, 7600 XT w/ 16 vram<br>32 GB RAM<br>4 TB Nvme, 2 TB nvme, 1 TB 2.5 inch SSD, 2 TB 2.5 inch</p><p>I also run a server on Hetzner and a home server!</p><p>I love playing games like Street Fighter 6, Guilty Gear Strive, Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising, Dragon Quest series, Final Fantasy series, Shin Megami Tensei series, Mega Man series and the Castlevania series and many more!</p><p>Thanks for having me and nice to meet you all!</p>

Steven Rosenberg<p>I'm running my OpenBSD laptop all the time right now. I'd like to get started with the 20+ desktop how-to posts I'm planning.</p><p>I also broke my foot.</p><p>While I can't move around, I can't sync the user files in the OpenBSD system with my Debian desktop (via Syncthing) and back to my Fedora disk on the laptop, so that's a big reason to stay in OpenBSD.</p><p><a href="https://ruby.social/tags/OpenBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OpenBSD</span></a> <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/Syncthing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Syncthing</span></a></p>
Exquisite.social<p>Since the switch from <a href="https://exquisite.social/tags/OpenBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OpenBSD</span></a> <code>-current</code> to <code>-stable</code>, the maintenance process has become easier and faster.</p><p>We only have to do a (quick) reboot now when the applied errata requires us to do so, which is not always the case.</p><p>With <code>-current</code>, we had to either upgrade the snapshot (and therefor package tree) or compile the patches ourselves, which both require extra effort.</p><p>Having said that, we do miss out on the latest and greatest from the OpenBSD devs. If need be, we can always create a staging as a playground.</p>
