Need to port FreeBSD to the MIPS® platform. I was going through below url,
https://www.freebsd.org/platforms/mips.html
There is list of all supported CPUs,boards but list is long, I would like to know the CPUs and boards on which anybody tried it and successfully able to execute it. Please suggest the name of cpu and board on which it works.
Thanks,
Umesh
There is also a wiki page: https://wiki.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/mips with a list.
If you have a further question, i suggest to ask on the freebsd-mips Mailinglist.

I have an Ettus E312.
I want to talk with it using the RedhawkSDR IDE.
There seems to be little documentation on this. The Redhawk manual doesn't include any tutorials. It's all just guess work to the uninitiated.
I found this setup guide on the GEON website: https://geontech.com/redhawk-sdr-and-an-ettus-e310/
However, I'm having trouble getting the device to appear under the active domain in the IDE. I have flashed the SD card, and updated the domain IP address on both omniORB files (host and USRP) as per the setup guide.
Once this is working, it is still not clear how to proceed...
Could someone please point me in the right direction??
Many thanks
The Virtual Machine NAT was confusing things!
What are the open source available for ipsec in linux today.
I came across 1 (strongswan), but I am very new to this. Please suggest me which is the best available one and scalable.
if you look into kernel, you may find it.
For example, there is a ipsec.h under
/include/uapi/linux/
I am not an expert of kernel. Just a clue
I think the document of strongswan is a good start point to understand IPSec. but the source code of strongswan is not friendly enough for learning IPsec implementation.
I would recommend you start from the source code of ip, part of iproute2 utility of GNU tools.
We a team of 10 people are set out to build an Operating System for mobiles/tablet from scratch.
I then came by this link awesome-link
which has a load of OS briefed. But we would like to build the OS in Java on top of linux kernel(possible?) .
I would like to know whether the project is feasible and if yes, from where should I start ?
And with all the knowledge and right resources(assume), will it be possible to build an OS with all the mobile functionalities within 6 months?
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Yes, what do you think Android is made of (of course it's not just Java + Linux kernel, but both are inside Android)?
I would like to know whether the project is feasible and if yes, from where should I start ?
Ever written an OS? How well do you know Linux kernel APIs? Do you know what's missing from Linux kernel to build a full featured OS? Answer those, they're your starting point.
And with all the knowledge and right resources(assume), will it be possible to build an OS with all the mobile functionalities within 6 months?
"All mobile functionalities" is biased, what is "all"? Be specific.
Please make enough research and planning before you are set out to start such a difficult, yet excellent journey.
Make sure you know what you should do, right from the technologies you are gonna use, the architecture you are planning to establish upon, the pros and cons of all the approach, the issues with the current OS and your idea of correcting those issues.
With a site like SO for your help, it is never a question of feasibility, but you would require the determination and the perseverance to achieve it.
Finally, all the best!!
You have Android build on scaled down Linux Kernel and apk is build through java & sdk manager. So you have the things in your hand, similarly ubuntu touch is also coming. What you can do is to customize things as per your requirements as per your architecture.
For ubuntu touch :- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Building
For Your own customized Android:- http://source.android.com/source/index.html

I have an old computer with formatted drive lying around collecting dust, now I want to instal a linux like OS (any suggestions?) on it and install a web server, preferrably Lighttpd. I want to set up a server so that I have an environment to practice web development in PHP or Java. My problem is I dont want to hook up another set of keyboard/mouse/monitor to that old computer, and if possible I want to remote boot/shutdown the server from this computer that I use to type this question.
I did some google search, but the results are never comprehensive or suitable for my circumstance. Any input would be appreciated, book recommendation or link to a good resource are fine too.
Thanks
Qin
P.S. I did some search on stackoverflow before asking this question, if there is another similiar question being asked, let me know.
You actually needs an unattended (silent) linux installation, which may trigger beeps to tell you when the installation is done. Hope this can help you refine your search on google.
You'll definitely need at least a monitor or KVM and a keyboard if you want to install any OS on it.
For server OS, you could try going for CentOS / Ubuntu. However, if your requirement is just to practice your PHP and Java, you could even use your existing laptop / PC and, assuming windows, you can just install wamp or xampp, to install your apache/php/mysql with just clicks.
We have network management system under linux, C/C++, perl and we need to test performance of this system. Is there a tool or way that would allow us to emulate 50 000 SNMP devices?
I don't know what more to say here... Please let me know if I should provide more information.
Any idea is appreciated.
Thank you
Bogdan
There are a few tools out there that will let you do that, however what I've seen is usually commercial software.
Adventnet SNMP Agent Simulator
MIMIC SNMP Agent Simulator
You can try Raddle - it is open-source, written in Perl and based on honeyd, which should be able to emulate up to 65536 hosts.
Thank you for your answers. Here's the way we solve this problem right now:
We have a linux VM up with 1 interface (eth0).
We add 50'000 virtual interfaces (eth0:1, eth0:2 etc).
An SNMP daemon is up and replies on requests through all the ip addresses.
This way we have 50K IP adresses in the network that reply to SNMP requests.
Though, I'm investigating Raddle. Maybe if it suits we'll switch to this solution.
Thanks,
Bogdan
If the devices are sending traps, you could use Net-SNMP's snmptrap to simulate the effects of that many traps being sent.
The snmpsim tool reportedly can sustain the simulation of ~50K agents. It can simulate different agents by responding at different IPs or to distinct SNMPv1/v2c community names or SNMPv3 context names.
There are also the hints on performance optimization.
