I just looked at the kernel config file and noted that I removed the "options VINUMDEBUG" a while ago. This might explain frames 13 through 15 in the crash dump being ?? . Help me out here please... 2) When upgrading I noted that the source for vinum had been changed in a similar way to the patches I received from Greg Lehey and applied in August 2002, so I did NOT apply the patches again. Perhaps I should have? 3) I also recently began using 'gre' devices for some VPN tunnels. This is new in 4.8. I find it odd (in hindsight) that these are working OK thought the "pseudo-device gre" line is absent from my kernel config file ???
