        Hi,

        i changed back to my primary hardware last week. Now i got my first crash.

        
        Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode

          Message buffer is still spammed by arp movement logs hiding anything that might be useful. You should really think about just disabling that logging if those MACs are known:
          https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/troubleshooting/logs-arp-moved.html

          Can you upload the ifconfig output from that hardware?

            I dont understand exactaly where i can disable the settings for that and why i have that messages.

              Hmm pretty much as before then. The only anomaly there is that one link in the lagg is not participating/active:

                      laggport: igc0 flags=8<COLLECTING> state=1f<ACTIVITY,TIMEOUT,AGGREGATION,SYNC,COLLECTING>
                              [(8000,7C-2B-E1-13-62-5B,01E6,8000,0001),
                               (FFFF,74-4D-28-07-F0-08,0007,00FF,0004)]

                @stephenw10 I know that, i think the cable is broken. I have now set from SpeedShift to PowerD and since that no more crashes. Before the setting and the first crash in the morning i have a crash every hour.

                  Huh, well that's..... unexpected! There was some speculation that it could be a race condition between multiple processes accessing the same socket. Changing the CPU frequency could affect that.

                    Good morning,

                    i had another Crash in the morning now with powerd, then thats not the resolution for the crashes. I uploaded the logs bug i think the crash report is the same.

                      Yes identical crash.

                      What's connected to igc0? It flapping a lot:

                      <6>igc0: link state changed to DOWN
                      <6>igc0: link state changed to UP
                      <6>igc0: link state changed to DOWN
                      <6>igc0: link state changed to UP
                      <6>igc0: link state changed to DOWN
                      <6>igc0: link state changed to UP
                      <6>igc0: link state changed to DOWN
                      <6>igc0: link state changed to UP

                        That's one of the LAGG ports. I have disabled the port for the moment.

                          Hmm, I can find no way of disabling IPv6 as a source address in tailscale.

                          One thing you could try is disabling IPv6 link-local addresses on the interface. Of course that breaks IPv6 if you need it. It also doesn't disable it on localhost so tailscale can still try to bind to that.

                              Same backtrace?

                              Are you able to test disabling link-local IPv6 addresses?

                                Thats the backtrace. I dont not find where i can disable the link-local IPv6 address.

                                  So, yes, it's identical.

                                  You have to add a loader value so run:
                                  echo net.inet6.ip6.auto_linklocal=0 >> /boot/loader.conf.local

                                  Then reboot.

                                  Then check the output from ifconfig again. You should find no link-local IPv6 addresses. Only the tailscale interface itself should have any IPv6 address.

                                    Hey guys, I know this is quite an old topic, but I may have experienced the same crash due to a tailscaled process on my PfSense. Were there any resolutions to this issue? I can share a backtrace of the crash if that would help, but from a brief comparison of others here, it seems that it is the same issue.

                                      Identical backtrace?

                                      https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/15503

                                      Do you have something listening on IPv6 that doesn't have to?

                                        @stephenw10 Hi, yeah, I would say so.

                                        This was at the end of the dump file after I had to restart the pfsense router manually.

                                        I don't believe we have anything listening on IPv6 that doesn't have to. We have IPv6 enabled on the WAN interface and also on the VLAN that office users are connected to. And to clarify, by 'listening on IPV6' do you mean some interfaces in the pfsense have IPV6 enabled or some other service connected to pfsense is listening on IPV6?

                                          I mean some service that's listening on IPv6 addresses when it doesn't need to.

                                          So, for example, when we saw this before there were services set to simply listen on 'all' interfaces and all IP addresses, specifically Bind. And that included IPv6 link-local and localhost addresses where it would never actually see any connections.
                                          However if that's tailscale I don't think there are any interface binding options. Yet.

                                            @stephenw10 I don't think so. While I do have Bind running, it is not set to listen on all interfaces and is in IPV4 mode only. I'm not aware of anything else that might fit the description. Isn't tailscale listening on all interfaces by default?
