I am only to suggest how to grab the debugging information for this case, that looks like a deadlock. Since parts of the network stack are functional, add ddb script to dump neccessary information, and trigger it by receiving some specially formatted ping packet. I higly suspect that you need at least backtraces of all threads and information on held locks. --gGwQG2l7+sHH0Akr Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkomZSEACgkQC3+MBN1Mb4gOWwCg0DDkktqVt3i2wZMzAc539ZOe BVkAoLvMI0gja6Wb0rQLvzPKlHH2vtW1 =Ri/u -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --gGwQG2l7+sHH0Akr--
