Crashing on new hardware with Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
-
I don't know. That could be coincidental.
I reproduced this on 3 different boxes (2 amd64, 1 x86) with post-July1 snapshots. Does not happen on any of them with previous snapshots that don't include the faulty FTP patches.
-
Then I guess you are right. Thats pretty solid evidence that its a problem with the patch. Makes sense.
-
I made fixes to prevent the panics.
Check later coming snapshots better from tomorrow ones. -
Sounds good, thanks!
-
Thanks, will test tomorrow…

Hi I have the same problem and reverted to 1st July version. I don't get crashes anymore but I also have problem on ftp traffic. The connections are too slow or I get a lot of disconnection from ftp server.
-
Here, too. FTP connections are very unrealibly with July 1st version.
-
Has anyone tested the latest releases? Is it safe to upgrade again?
-
Seems to be stable again, but you can always downgrade with a backup.tgz on full installs or switch slices on nano.
FTP still does not work very good with the sites I have tested, tough. -
Hi,
we have this crashes too… dependent on hardware it gaves a TRAP 12 (attached image with firmware from July, 4th).
Other hardware get stucked without any hint what happened.
Yesterday evening updated to
2.1-RC0 (amd64)
built on Mon Jul 8 21:53:11 EDT 2013
FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE-p8
because last possible version to download was from July, 2nd. But still same problem…Has someone a link to a stable version from July, 1st please (older version is from April, 22th so rolling back is not so nice)?
Thanks.

No such problem with Tue Jul 9 11:08:17 EDT 2013 FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE-p8. However, the patches do nothing useful to improve FTP, in fact they break things badly here (not as in kernel panic, but breaking FTP functionality which was working perfectly fine before).

I don't see how these regressions are good at this stage. There is a crapload more users with normal FTP usage, as opposed to esoteric multi-WAN scenarios these were supposed to improve.

Here the actual crashdump output of yesterday firmware:
Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode cpuid = 4; apic id = 04 fault virtual address = 0x90 fault code = supervisor read data, page not present instruction pointer = 0x20:0xffffffff802122cf stack pointer = 0x28:0xffffff8055b9cac0 frame pointer = 0x28:0xffffff8055b9cad8 code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b = DPL 0, pres 1, long 1, def32 0, gran 1 processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0 current process = 8 (pfpurge)
I found in it also Interesting snippet from yesterday install/update part which could cause problems, too:

Well, FTP is broken on my second WAN link, too. I could swear it used to work about 2 month ago…

didnt helped. It crashed 3 time again since then… -
Has anyone updated to the latest snapshots? Is it safe to upgrade again? Any feedback from you guys here?
-
Yes, I'm running the latest snapshot. For me, it's rock-solid again since a few days.
-
Have you tryed small partitions ?
I had a problem with all pfsense version on a new computer with a partition size higher than ~32Gb (can't be 100% sure about the actual size at witch it does not work)
