Date: Wed, 21 Jul 1999 19:18:31 -0700 From: Kirk McKusick Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have been unable to produce the panic on my test machine. My current stumbling block is that I do not know how to create the `modeule' files, specifically /modules/vn.ko. My previous patch is *not* a valid solution, but does indicate to me that the problem probably lies in a missing BUF_KERNPROC in the vnode driver before it starts an async I/O. Unfortunately, I am departing in 6.5 hours on a six week vacation. And I have no intent on taking my laptop (or any other high tech computer gear beyond my scuba diving computer) with me. Peter proved quite adept at finding the missing BUF_KERNPROC in the paging code, so I am hopeful that he can apply his wizardry here as well. If the problem has not been resolved by the time of my return (August 30th) I promise to track down the problem on my return.
