Twice today during very heavy network I/O (dumping a large postgres database over the ethernet to another machine on the same switch) I got this error: Mar 22 03:42:22 d01 kernel: bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting Mar 22 10:28:24 d01 kernel: bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting The most informative info I found searching google was this one: http://unix.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/FreeBSD/net/2003-08/0096.html However, that seems to imply that a 5.4-PRERELEASE build March 15 would not be caused by this particular bug. The dmesg says this of bge0: bge0: <Broadcom BCM5704C Dual Gigabit Ethernet, ASIC rev. 0x2003> mem 0xfc9b0000-0xfc9bffff,0xfc9c0000-0xfc9cffff irq 24 at device 9.0 on pci3 miibus0: <MII bus> on bge0 bge0: Ethernet address: 00:e0:81:2a:ac:5e Any insights on where to look? This is a dual Opteron running FreeBSD/amd64 with 4GB disk. The only thing funny I did was build with CPUTYPE=opteron optimizations. I'm rebuilding right now without that, but I've also cvsup'd the sources... This is my SWAG as to the problem. Anyone else still experiencing these timeouts? Vivek Khera, Ph.D. +1-301-869-4449 x806
