      Looks like it may be in the Intel driver… fun.

          Hopefully it's fixable, though lem is legacy em, so it's some rather old/early em chipsets. Might explain why so few people have hit it.

            If it is an intel problem, then why would I be recieving the same problem on my soekris net5501-70 board? that uses a VIA VT6105M chip.

              Without a backtrace from there it's impossible to say.

                where do you see it is an old legacy nic/driver? (not questioning, just Curious) :)
                just an fyi, had no problem with oct snaps.

                Thanks for your help

                    Hmm - that line looks similar to the panic I get when captive portal is enabled on my box.

                    
                    exclusive sleep mutex fxp0 (network driver) r = 0 (0xc36de018) locked @ /usr/pfSensesrc/src/sys/dev/fxp/if_fxp.c:1288
                    
                    

                    Details here:
                    http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,30791.msg159227.html#msg159227

                    CryoGenID gets a panic but with yet another set of drivers.  Cino does as well.
                    http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,29839.60.html

                    Is there anything we can do to help besides posting back traces?

                      I just spent a bit of time on the phone with someone who hit this. It does seem to be related to OpenVPN somehow (or the kind of traffic that is seen more often with OpenVPN I suppose). Once we had the developer kernel on it stayed up for quite a while until we had someone connect with OpenVPN and generate some traffic.

                        A patch was just committed by ermal that might be a potential fix for this, or at least change the behavior somewhat. Give the next snapshot a try.

                          Just as a side note I was getting a kernal panic with the PPPOA interface being selected to WAN rather than rl1. Not sure if that is due to incorrect config but if so might be worth removing to save people the hassle.

                            Still getting the panic, I don't think the commit happened on the most recent snap.

                              It did happen. I manually restarted the builders after the patch went in. So apparently it still isn't quite right.

                                Could someone who can readily reproduce this panic give this custom firmware build a try?

                                http://cvs.pfsense.org/~jimp/pfSense-Full-Update-2.0-BETA5-i386-20110114-2041.tgz

                                It was built without a patch that does the extra mbuf operations that may be triggering the panic.

                                    not sure how far back this happens.

                                    in a test network -
                                    2 machines, each w/ 4 intel nics (em0 - em3)
                                    WAN, LAN, Opt1, Opt2 (CARP interface)

                                    Running CARP on WAN, LAN, Opt1 interfaces
                                    Syncing on Opt2 interface.

                                    Recently started getting panics on box2 when changing settings on box1.

                                    Panic & BackTrace from box2 included below.

                                      Out of curiosity, what type of network cards do you have in that box? Is it rl and em both? Or just em? or just rl? Or something else?

                                        one em network (gig embedded on the board of an old dell p4).  All network traffic is VLAN'd on that one interface.

                                          OK, just checking… It looks odd to me that the backtrace references ed_probe_RTL80x9 which is a really old realtek chip, but it may just be something weird that I don't know at that level in the kernel/network stack.

                                          We have arranged serial console access with someone who has been able to reproduce the panic so hopefully we'll have a lead on a fix early next week.

                                            Here's an extract from the stack trace:

                                            m_freem(c2feeb00,4,c0e6e75d,b87,c2f4e000,...) at m_freem+0x43
                                            ed_probe_RTL80x9(c2f52580,0,c0e6e75d,546,c2f525bc,...) at 0xc06ec4d8
                                            ed_probe_RTL80x9(c2f4e000,1,c0eb8bcc,4f,c2edb918,...) at 0xc06efea0
                                            taskqueue_run(c2edb900,c2edb918,c0ea5f85,0,c0eb222b,...) at taskqueue_run+0x103
                                            

                                            Note the two ed_probe_RTL80x9 references are not accompanied by a symbol name and offset. I suspect ed_probe_RTL80x9 is merely the closest lower value global symbol but its too far away to warrant printing the PC as symbol+offset. If that is the case you shouldn't take too much notice of the ed_probe_RTL80x9.
