SG-1100: unexpexcted reboots and vm_fault in logs - how to diagnose?
-
@stephenw10 could you explain the timezone remark?
I see the file timestamps are marked as GMT. For the times I highlighted I expeted them to be in the same timezone as the system log entries. Is that not the case?If not is there a way to set the timezone to use somewhere? (preferably for all logs, but either for the system logs or for pfblockerNG would already help)
In my case I configured pfBlockerNG to run a daily update at 00:15:00 (so that time matches my local timezone). If I assume that the system logs also use my local time zone (which seems to be the case), those entries would indeed be in the same timeframe.
-
Yes, I expect them to be the same but since we are currently in summer time it seemed suspect. Especially as my own logs are in local time, which is BST for me, but that is not included in the pfblocker log.
What version are you using?
-
@stephenw10 I just learned that I need to update pfblockerNG manually. I updated it to the latest devel version (3.2.0_17)
-
@stephenw10 I managed to have a device attached to the USB console while it crashed. Could you give me a hint on where the dump starts and where it ends?
before the boot logs I see a lot of these:

Ok well that's definitely a kernel panic.
What you want from the start of the panic output. So the initial panic string and the backtrace (
bt>)So as an example:

@stephenw10 thanks! Got it - what should I do with it?
-
You can upload it here and I'll check it:

@stephenw10 done :-)

Ok. Backtrace:

Did you reinstall this clean? If not I would probably try that to rule out any filesytstem issue.
-
@stephenw10 I did install it clean some 2 months ago, but I can retry - will come back after that.
I already suspected something with storage in the past, but couldn't find any hint that shows a failing storage (I did check usage level as in the docs for the SG 1100, but that seems good). -
Quick update to anyone stumbling on this:
The reboots kept coming in an irregular way. What seemed to help was reducing the number of feeds for pfBlockerNG (even though memory did not seem to be the probelm). At some point I installed 24.11 RC and then 24.11 final. That seemed to finally do the trick: I had an uptime of some 9 days.For me the issue is closed, since I recently upgraded to a SG-2100 that I was able to get for a good price. Interestingly even though memory never seemd to be the problem now I see the CPU also running at a lower average (.2 vs .5 before).
