I'm trying to revive the NetBSD port.

We have passing NetBSD 8-BETA builders for amd64 now.

The NetBSD i386 kernel fails to get networking on GCE, but the 64-bit NetBSD kernel can run 32-bit binaries (like FreeBSD and unlike OpenBSD), and that's how we used to run the netbsd-386 builder, so I'm trying that again.

But 32-bit binaries fail to get the page size on a 64-bit kernel:

Obviously not correct, but falling back to 4KB instead of returning 0 on sysctl failure seems to make it get further:

Now instead of crashing, make.bash seems to hang forever, consuming CPU forever in /tmp/workdir/go/pkg/tool/netbsd_386/go_bootstrap install.

Ideas welcome.

If we don't get netbsd-386 working again, we'll just document it in the release notes. That is #22911. At least having any NetBSD working again would be an improvement. (Go 1.9 didn't run on NetBSD at all.)

Debugging this would be easier once ssh is enabled for NetBSD. That is #22872.

Panic... this looks badly. Trying to reproduce locally.

copying the freebsd/386 sysctl implementation as-is fixes this

@coypoop, thanks!

@rsc fixed that for freebsd/386 in 25f6b02 where he wrote:

If this breaks another system, the bug is almost certainly in the
sys_$GOOS_$GOARCH.s file, since the rest of the CL is tested
by the combination of the above systems.

Indeed.

It's still busted, but this will let other people debug.
