@stephenw10 Appreciate the guidance!

@mrpete said in page fault kernel panics after 2.5.2 upgrade:

the fact that it is a UFS panic proves fsck is needed?

Yes, that. You would not see that panic if ZFS was used.

Hello,

Just to update about the crashs: they didn't happen again.
Also, I've being using Suricata 6.0.3 release since than, and no netmap issues 😸

So, I changed my RAM, and tested the old ones:
24H of MemTest86+ and at least 5hrs of GoldMemory (not the best tests, but still), resulted in not a single red flag for them (tested individually), AND I'm using them on other Win machines withouth BSOD or anything in the logs.

I already saw RAM tests failing to detect problems, so based on what you explained, I'm assuming that both 1 - the issue with Suricata's Multithreading ring access, and 2 - darkstat, were hitting some intermittent problem, that I could not with tests and other OS.

Anyway, thank you for helping me out solving this. Really appreciate @stephenw10 and @bmeeks !

Ah, yes, if it tries to boot and finds the assigned interface missing then you will see problems. I would not normally expect a panic though.

An Ethernet connected external modem will give far better results pretty much every time.

That looks like a hardware issue but it's still processing. It's something different.
