Kernel Panic

jimp

I just tried on my amd64 vm and when I force a manual panic (sysctl debug.kdb.panic=1) I get a textdump, and no db> prompt. I'm not sure why someone on a current snapshot update would still be getting left at a db> prompt when it crashes, they should be gathering the info and rebooting on their own.

Doesn't help with the hangs, though, but the hangs are a different problem (and a different thread :-)

Here is what I get when carp tries to sync. This is running snapshot version amd64-20110128-0938.

Thanks,

Andy

That snap was before the last fixes went in. Try the newest one.

That's the latest I see on the snapshots server. Am I looking in the wrong spot? http://snapshots.pfsense.org/FreeBSD_RELENG_8_1/amd64/pfSense_HEAD/updates/?C=M;O=D

One more patch went in after that build, it's going right now and will be ready in a few hours.

I have been since late last night and I've tried everything I was doing before to make it panic but have had no success. Looks like the guys have done a good job of finding the problem.

Please monitor the output of netstat -m and see if those counters go crazy otherwise thank you for help testing.

You need to upgrade at one snapshot after it.
This issue was reported before in this thread and it should be fixed on snapshot later than what you have installed

I assume there are no panics anymore from seeing no complaints anymore?

I won't normally know for another week, but I'll surely keep this thread posted.

My soekris hasn't crashed (great job fixing the panics! :D), but i haven't tested the dell em machine yet. :-\

What did crash the primary or the secondary?
It crashed on clicking apply rules or in the secondary after the sync?
