Kernel Panic
-
I started the builder by hand after his commit.
The patches are committed in the tools repo - the tools repo isn't tracked by the builder in the function you pasted. -
Hmmm - Just panicked, running 2.0-BETA5 (i386) built on Thu Feb 3 00:55:19 EST 2011 on both master & slave.
Updated a rule on the master, slave panicked.
I've attached images of the panic & bt.
 -
The issue is fixed. Just the patch i committed had some typo from copy/pasto.
-
You should grab the next snapshot that will come out.
AFAIK it has no more such issues. -
I just started a new build after ermal's commit - the next new snapshot should include this fix.
-
Thanks Ermal! I'll give the next snapshot a try when it is available and report back.

Running 2.0-BETA5 (i386) built on Thu Feb 3 18:55:08 EST 2011 on both master & slave.
Slave panicked as soon as I updated a rule on the master.
Attached images of both panic & bt.

Wrong snapshot sorry.
This is the commit that fixes the error https://rcs.pfsense.org/projects/pfsense-tools/repos/mainline/commits/08f1322c7d5d9fae8ef52dc356c75a59d2483263 -
Running 2.0-BETA5 (i386) built on Fri Feb 4 02:36:03 EST 2011 on both Master & Slave.
It ran longer this time before the panic. I changed my configuration a little before it happened this time.
Steps:
1 - Pulled the plug on the master WAN
(Slave became the new CARP master for all carp VIPs)
1a - Verified LAN clients were able to surf the web.
2 - Cleared XMLRPC Sync settings from the old master
3 - Set XMLRPC Sync settings on the new master (old slave)
4 - Changed DHCP settings on new master (old slave)
5 - Old master had a panic.
 -
@PJ2:
2 - Cleared XMLRPC Sync settings from the old master
3 - Set XMLRPC Sync settings on the new master (old slave)Why on earth would you do that? That isn't necessary at all, and could lead to other issues.

Jimp/Ermal
just an update. I installed an updated firmware on another system about 5 days ago.
All seem good!
Thanks for all your help!!!!vito

As I was typing I wondered if that might be the response I would get. It's always amazing what crazy and unexpected things an end user can come up with. :)
This is a test environment, so I test things.
Comp1 = initial CARP master, XMLRPC master
Comp2 = initial CARP slave, XMLRPC slaveI wanted to know what would happen if Comp1 had an issue and Comp2 took over. Could I also make Comp2 become the XMLRPC master since it was acting as the CARP master? I did clear the XMLRPC settings on Comp1 first. I wouldn't have thought that reversing the roles would cause a panic.
-
When a master syncs the config to a slave it makes several alterations in the process.
Just flipping a slave to a master in the XMLRPC settings it going to cause you problems because of this.
If you really want to swap their roles, restore the master's config to the slave box and vice versa.
When a CARP slave takes over automatically - if you have configured everything right - it can function that way indefinitely until you bring the master back up, you just can't make any changes to the slave's config you want to keep. But that is all a topic for another thread. It's not the source of the panic - it's just a Bad Thing
. -
Good to know - I'll avoid doing that in the future.

Ok so I waited until I thought this snapshot would be okaish… Within 10 minutes of installing this my machine crashed:

Sorry, I haven't had time to exactly test the new snapshots till now. I loaded it up with 2.0-BETA5 (i386) built on Sun Feb 6 23:54:00 EST 2011. Crashed when trying to use openVPN. This is the P4 Dell machine that was described prior.

I don't have access to my pfSense box(s) to get crash info at the moment, but I can say I am in the same boat as LostInConfusion - still getting panics when I try to access a pfSense box through the VPN (though in my case it's IPSec, not OpenVPN). This is using the most recent snapshot. For what it's worth, the previously mentioned carp lock issue probably wasn't at the root of the issue I am having, since I am not using any carp functionality whatsoever with my setup…

The actual report would have done a lot more.
If it stops at a db> prompt, it isn't collecting the crash info automatically for whatever reason.

@jimp - any ideas about my crash? I assume it is related to this thread…
