Hello, I know I posted a few messages here in the past, but maybe someone who is good at tracking kernel problems can step up and lend a hand. I have a machine running FBSD 4.0-STABLE, and have been experiencing almost daily kernel panics or reboots on the machine. I have replaced ALL of the hardware, and reloaded the OS, but still having troubles. I am at a bit of a loss as to what is going on. From one panic, I thought well maybe this is an SMP issue, but removed one of the CPU's and still the box crashes. As I have basically replaced everything, I am at a loss as to where to go from here, so looking for some type of pointers or help with this.. The other day I was there, and got the following from one of the crashes, as many times I am gone and luckally in some ways the box will just panicboot and go on it's way. Here is what I was able to copy down: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode mp_lock=01000002; cpuid=1; lapic.id=01000000 fault virtual address= 0x30 fault code= supervisor read, page not present instruction pointer= 0x8:0xC01CAF71 stack pointer= 0x10:0xFF80DE48 frame pointer= 0x10:0xFF80DE4C code segment= base 0x0, limit 0xFFFFF, type 0x1B = DPL 0, pres 1, def 32, gran 1 processor eflags= interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL=0 current process = idle interupt mask= bio <- SMP: XXX trap number= 12 panic: page fault The formatting of it may not be perfect, but the information should be accurate, as I tried to be precise on what I wrote down. Also here are a few previous messages I had posted a while back when I thought this might be network related, but after trying several different NIC's I still have the same issues. I will include the info below, as maybe it will have some value in trying to debunk this problem. ==== Hello, I am running a 4.0-STABLE machine which is being used to host an Undernet IRC server, and the machine keeps dying at times, or should I say the networking side of it is at least dying. At first I thought it might have been related to the dc (DEC Chip) based drivers, so I replaced it with a EEpro board using the fxp driver, but the same results. I have also set MNBCLUSTERS to 20480, and when I do a netstat I see in general plenty of free clusters, but suspect I must be running out of some other resource. If I do a netstat -m, I see info like this: u2$ netstat -m 1697/2144/81920 mbufs in use (current/peak/max): 498 mbufs allocated to data 1199 mbufs allocated to packet headers 221/514/20480 mbuf clusters in use (current/peak/max) 1296 Kbytes allocated to network (50% in use) 0 requests for memory denied 0 requests for memory delayed 0 calls to protocol drain routines When the machine last froze, the Kbytes allocated to the network was 99% in use, and the mbufs were up to about 20K of the 80K allocated, but I saw no calls for memory denied or delayed. Still after a few hours of uptime, I start seeing errors like this, and then the machines network interface dies and I have to reboot to get everything back in operation: Mar 27 12:39:00 u2 /kernel: fxp0: device timeout Mar 27 12:39:00 u2 syslogd: sendto: No buffer space available Mar 27 12:39:38 u2 last message repeated 2 times Mar 27 12:41:32 u2 last message repeated 6 times Mar 27 12:44:15 u2 syslogd: sendto: No buffer space available Mar 27 12:44:04 u2 last message repeated 8 times Not sure what other information to send, but here is a dmesg on the machine, and if anyone has any ideas, or needs more info please let me know. It's very annoying to have to reboot this machine daily, sometimes more often.. :( Copyright (c) 1992-2000 The FreeBSD Project.

that card the machine dies a little less often, but when it does the machine usually hangs hard, or reboots. Catching the console before it's totally dead, I can see the following message scrolling on the screen: dc0: watchdog timeout Different than the error from the EEpro card, but still network related, so again I dumped the above information for comparison, and here it is: ifconfig: dc0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 207.114.4.35 netmask 0xfffffff0 broadcast

Requests 6372K 5380K 13003847 All of the above stats were taken while the network card was spitting out errors prior to performing a reboot which brings the box back online. I also tried unplugging the nic and plugging it back in without out any change. I also over time have replaced everything in the box except the case, but still the problem persists, and in fact took the old hardware and built a different machine that works fine. So something related to the heavy use by the IRC programs is killing this thing almost daily, and I am at a loss as to what. If you or anyone here on the list has any ideas, I would sure love to hear them, as it would be nice to get to the bottom of this issue... ===== Guess thats about it for now, and hopefully someone can give me some pointers, or lend a hand in trying to get this issue resolved as it's driving me nutz.. :) --- Howard Leadmon - howardl@abs.net - http://www.abs.net ABSnet Internet Services - Phone: 410-361-8160 - FAX: 410-361-8162 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
