[squid-users] 2 Problems

Hi,

My setup: Sun X4200 Server 8GB RAM, Sun IPF 4.1.9 (592), Solaris 10 x86 Generic_137112-02

Problem 1:

I compiled SQUID 3.0_STABLE5 no problem on Solaris 10 Generic_120012-14. Which is the one we are using.

But since patching to Generic_137112-02 neither 3.0_STABLE5 or 3.0_STABLE8 will compile.

The problem is that g++ uses /usr/sfw/lib/gcc/i386-pc-solaris2.10/3.4.3/include/sys/types.h and /usr/include/sys/proc.h.

That proc.h contains:

...
volatile lgrp_id_t p_t1_lgrpid; /* main's thread lgroup id */
volatile lgrp_id_t p_tr_lgrpid; /* text replica's lgroup id */
...

But type "lgrp_id_t" is only defined in /usr/include/sys/types.h not the gcc one!

Pre-patch, these variables and type did not exist.

Short of getting Sun to patch the gcc types.h, or me doing it, any suggestions as to how to get it to compile...

Problem 2:

We are using IPF to direct web traffic to squid, running in transparent mode. We keep getting lots of:

clientNatLookup: NAT lookup failed: ioctl(SIOCGNATL)

I have searched and searched on this one and the nearest to an answer I have come to is that it has to do with permissions on the /dev/ipnat device, in my case:

host[53]# ls -l /dev/ipnat
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 29 Apr 3 15:32 /dev/ipnat -> ../devices/pseudo/ipf_at_0:ipnat

host[54]# ls -l /devices/pseudo/ipf_at_0:ipnat
crw-rw-rw- 1 root bin 165, 1 Jul 15 15:16 /devices/pseudo/ipf_at_0:ipnat

host[55]# getdevpolicy /dev/ipnat
/dev/ipnat
        read_priv_set=sys_ip_config
        write_priv_set=sys_ip_config

Figuring it was the device policy, I granted the running squid process "sys_ip_config" privs using ppriv, but it still kept doing it... This is when I decided to alter IPInterception.cc so that the value of errno was included in the error message, and when I discovered it no longer compiled, refer to Problem 1 !!!

Can anyone help me on this one...
