Hi, >so far: > .. >conclusion: the problem is (probably) not in icu.s or vector.s > >something has changed in -current that is eating our shorts... I just put files1.tar.gz into freefall:/incoming this contains the older console.h and syscons.c that seem to be necessary. this contains the old vector.s and icu.s that I think are usable. So... you can cvsup the latest SMP stuff, overlay these 4 files and go crazy with me! The death seems to be when the 2nd CPU runs its 1st process. I can start it up with sysctl and have it stop at a cngetc() in secondary_main just b4 it calls 'cpu_switch(curproc)'. The system is healthy at this point. I hit return, the 2nd CPU presummably enters cpu_switch, and I get a root prompt back on the console ( "# " ). I can hit <return> repeatedly and get another prompt. The moment I try to do anything, even a shell builtin like "echo foo", I get a reboot. -- Steve Passe | powered by smp@csn.net | FreeBSDhelp
