Fatal Trap12 page fault while in kernel mode

turtle

Hi,

we have been using pfsense since a long time now, never had any problems.
But with the newest update from version 2.1 RELEASE to 2.1.2 RELEASE, after reboot i got this message - see attachement.
Happened on both of our FW's (exactly the same hardware setup running in an HA master + Backup setup.
Any idea why this happened? - Machines doesn't react anymore after this, so no "bt" possible.

regards

Is this 2.1.2 RELEASE or 2.2-DEVELOPMENT?

2.1.2 RELEASE

And this section of the forum is for 2.2 Snapshot Feedback and Problems.
You will get better help if you post elsewhere, like in Installations and Upgrades.
Edit: the post got moved to the correct forum.

I am seeing this on both of the memstick-vga builds that are up on snapshots.pfsense.org for the amd64 platform on 2.2.

I don't see this when booting into 2.1.2, but 2.1.2 won't recognize my NICs (which is a separate problem).

ok i think i found the cause of this problem

i reinstalled 2.1.2 RELEASE and configured everything as usual
Then i added the NIC tweak - (https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Tuning_and_Troubleshooting_Network_Cards)

/boot/loader.conf.local
kern.ipc.nmbclusters="655356"
hw.em.num_queues="4"

as we always did- but after adding this line, and rebooting, ill get the exact same error message.

any idea why?
