[v2.3 & v2.4] Kernel crash with Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
-
So, I tried 2.4.0-BETA v20161113-2326 (pfSense-CE-memstick-serial-2.4.0-BETA-amd64-20161113-2326), in 15 hours it failed twice (9h and 15h later).
When I logged in in the WebConfigurator to get the first crash report I got it fine:
Crash report begins. Anonymous machine information:

2048but when sending report to developers, it got it's second crash which I don't want to send (because it would maybe re-crash the system) but I got this on the serial console:

root@buildbot2.netgate.com:/builder/ce/tmp/obj/builder/ce/tmp/FreeBSD-src/sys/pfSense amd64</esc>~~I will now try v2.3.1 (I think I recall that it was not crashing that much at that time).
2.4.0-BETA crashed few seconds after I changed Virtual IP settings (to disable box running v2.4.0-BETA and switch production to the box running v2.3.1).
-
I can be wrong but it mostly looks like ECC memory failure. Please replace your memory and test again.
-
It occurs on 2 identical brand-new box so I doubt faulty hardware is the cause (it is still possible indeed but lowly possible).
-
Two boxes? Does it mean you don't use same pieces of hardware when testing on both machines? For example harddrive/CF or USB stick?
-
It means I have 2 identical servers with exact same model of component (1X SSD, 1x RAM memory stick) in each one.
v2.3.2 was tested on both servers.
v2.40-BETA (which performs a bit better : only 2-3 crashes per day) was only tested on box 2.
v2.3.1 was only tested on box 1.I never swapped any piece (would it be RAM or SSD)
Used a couple of USB memory stick for the installations : it is actually the only piece of hardware that was shared between servers. -
Funny fact, when unplugging network cables (when I want to swap production from one server to another: for the tests): the server crashes…
-
Are there some BIOS/UEFI options regarding OS installation compatibility?
Did you try to install 2.4 on ZFS with GPT-UEFI (it should work on latest builds)? I am not sure may be its related to some power savings or anything else you can find in BIOS or UEFI settings related to power savings.
It would be good to disable all CPU power saving modes except common C1 mode for testing purposes. -
bad cable? faulty plug on the other end with out of spec voltages?
-
@w0w:

It would be good to disable all CPU power saving modes except common C1 mode for testing purposes.pfSense 2.4 was installed on MBR: I'll try GPT…
I have no access to BIOS on this appliance which is pre-prepared for pfSense (bought to a local appliance reseller): serial console does not allow me to enter BIOS (I see the "Press: Got it working.to enter…" but pressing the [Del] key does nothing).
The BIOS says the following about CPU:- EIST (GV3) : Disable
- P-stat Coordination : Package (cannot be modified)
- TM1 : Enable
- TM2 Mode : Adaptative Throttling (cannot be modified)
- CPU C State : Disable
- Enhanced Halt State : Disable (cannot be modified)
- ACP C2 : Diable (cannot be modified)
- Monitor/Mwait : Enable (cannot be modified)
- L1 Prefetcher : Enable
- L2 Prefetcher : Enable
- Max CPUID Value Limit : Disable
- Execute Disable Bit : Enable
- AES-NI : Enable
- Turbo : Enable (cannot be modified)
- Active Processor Core : All
But, on the pfSense config, PowerD is disabled and AC Power, Battery Power and Unknown Power settings are all set to "Hiadaptive" (did not touched theses after 2.4.0-BETA installation).
It is advised to disable power saving modes in the BIOS/UEFI?

Got the same error once a day with the same motherboard in 2.3.x. Bios settings weren't changed since the first install of 2.x. I don't think it is a hardware issue but I also have no clue how to solve the issue but installing 2.2 again.
-
Yeah! I am not alone!
Is your network architecture partially similar to mine? Do you have a lot of users?
If your workaround is to downgrade to 2.2 it is a lead for some debugging and a possible fix…
I see bug #4689 (Panic/Crash "sbflush_internal: cc 4294967166 || mb 0 || mbcnt 0") is similar but is marked as resolved for 2.3…
Original bug report on FreeBSD bug tracker is still open and someone reported it ran into the issue it a month ago. -
I don't see any options you must change in BIOS. All your posted options are OK. Just for testing purpose, enable PowerD and set it to maximum perfomance. Make sure you do not have polling enabled and enable all setting below (see picture).
If it does not help then install 2.2.x version.
-
I had "Hardware Checksum Offloading" unchecked and both "Hardware TCP Segmentation Offloading" & "Hardware Large Receive Offloading" checked.
I'll check "Hardware Checksum Offloading" and set PowerD to maximum…
-
Update:
I tested OPNsense (v16.7.8 ) under the same load and configuration and it works (3 days now)…
In the same time, the other server (on pfSense 2.4.0) which is up but not used (no traffic towards him) did not crashed either: indicates crashes are load/traffic related.Hope this helps to pinpoint the exact cause of the issue.
-
I think you must create bug report on redmine. The crashes I have had on different hardware also happened under heavy traffic. It could be driver related or NIC hardware revision/firmware.
-
Any news?
-
My car won't start, I heard your's doesn't, I bet it's the same reason.
I'd recommend starting your own threads so people can step you through stuff to check without causing massive confusion about who is talking about what.
-
I am fighting this same issue, any updates on this issue. I am running a super micro server as well. it seems a lot of people are seeing the trap 12 when using the intel igb driver specifically?
-
I have the same problem with 2.5.2.
problem appears when i migrate frome 2.4 to 2.5
