  1. @kedara if you're not already on 15 or 16, upgrade the base OS. STABLE will be better than RELEASE, if you have no special requirement for RELEASE. Use pkgbase.

    If you are already on 15-STABLE or 16-CURRENT, you should find that iwm(4) is more stable, but less performant, than iwlwifi(4).

    No mention of devmatch_blocklist anywhere in the FreeBSD Handbook or the documentation portal. You'll find it in the third manual page below. Good luck.

  3. So, after I met problems with iwlwifi driver and my attempts to aggregate both em0 and wlan0 interfaces to the one lagg0 interface (mastodon.bsd.cafe/@evgandr/115) — looks like I found a much (MUCH!) simpler solution :drgn_happy:

    I wanted to automatically switch between wired and wireless networks when I plug-in (or disconnect) my Ethernet cable. First, because I was a newbie in the FreeBSD world, I tried to search for some kind of NetworkManager. Thankfully, I didn't find any NetworkManager clone ported to the FreeBSD. I found some tries to port NetworkManager from Linux to FreeBSD but all of them are failed (not surprised, lol).

    Then, I finally started to read documentation :drgn_think_science: . In the section about advanced networking I read about aggregation interfaces. And somehow I managed to aggregate both of em0 and wlan0 to the one lagg0 interface and it works well.

    But, looks like (see mstdn.social/@erikarn/11598626) it is not the way how the lagg interfaces should work. It is not intended to use wireless interfaces in the aggregate interfaces — so my tricky setup stopped working in the FreeBSD 15.0.

    BUT, since we have a beautiful devd daemon, which listens for various system events and able to execute actions when event is happened — I just wrote 23 lines of shell script to learn my laptop how to switch between interfaces when the Ethernet cable (dis)connects, lol. Solution is very simple:

    First, we already have /etc/devd/dhclient.conf, which starts dhclient when some interface appeared in the system. I modified it, so it calls the sPeCiAL script, each time when em0, or wlan0, or ue0 interface appeared in the system, or when em0 is disappeared:

    notify 0 {
    match "system" "IFNET";
    match "type" "LINK_UP";
    media-type "ethernet";
    action "/root/bin/unfuck_network.tcsh $subsystem ifup";
    };

    notify 0 {
    match "system" "IFNET";
    match "type" "LINK_DOWN";
    media-type "ethernet";
    action "/root/bin/unfuck_network.tcsh $subsystem ifdown";
    };

    notify 0 {
    match "system" "IFNET";
    match "type" "LINK_UP";
    media-type "802.11";
    action "/root/bin/unfuck_network.tcsh $subsystem";
    };

    notify 0 {
    match "system" "ETHERNET";
    match "type" "IFATTACH";
    match "subsystem" "ue0";
    action "/root/bin/unfuck_network.tcsh ue0";
    };

    Then, the main magic happens in the /root/bin/unfuck_network.tcsh:
    — When Ethernet cable is connected — it destroys the wlan0 interface and starts dhclient for em0 to talk with DHCP server.
    — When Ethernet cable is disconnected — it makes all to remove route using em0 from routing table (removes em0 interface completely, flush routing table, etc — somehow em0 still stays in the routing table if interface is not destroyed; btw system will create it anyway later, in some point) and recreates the wlan0 interface.
    — When wlan0 device is created — it starts dhclient for it.

    Script contents (for tcsh):
    #!/bin/tcsh

    switch ( $1 )
    case "em0":
    if ( $2 == "ifup" ) then
    service netif quietstop wlan0
    service dhclient quietstart em0
    else if ( $2 == "ifdown" ) then
    service dhclient quietstop em0
    ifconfig em0 delete
    route flush
    service routing restart
    service netif quietstart wlan0
    endif
    breaksw;
    case "wlan0":
    service dhclient quietstart wlan0
    breaksw;
    case "ue0":
    service dhclient quietstart ue0
    breaksw;
    endsw

    「… alternatively, the FreeBSD project gets a subproject going which brings in the WiFi drivers from OpenBSD twice a year or something.」

    Smart thinking. +100 to reuse of code, collaboration, and the like.

    You're not the first person to ask about OpenBSD. The brief answer, from <wiki.freebsd.org/WiFi/Iwlwifi#>:

    「There were other people looking into this.

    When I started there was limited support for various chipsets already supported by iwlwifi, … mangled so that comparing to the original code was no longer possible in an automated way … goals listed above … another driver to change and support (in addition to iwm).」

  25. Through research and backtesting, I've found that systematic trading strategies generate superior returns with minimal active trading time, in contrast to the time-intensive nature of discretionary stock #trading.
