I had a 3.2 stable (from 30 May 1999)machine panic tonight, trying to load the oss driver, which is not too shocking. What was shocking was the damage done to my filesystem. The automatic fsck failed, with an UNEXPECTED SOFT UPDATES INCONSISTNCY. PARTIALLY ALLOCATED INODE I=39684. Running fsck manually revealed that all inodes from 39684 to 39743 were in this state, which had to be cleared for the filesystem to be cleaned. Only one of these files, the oss/soundon.log file was likely to have been open. The rest were random .h files, and some groff config stuff. I find that quite disturbing. The machine hasn't got enough space to recover the crash dump. The panic, and at least some damage to /usr seems to be possible to recreate at will, so I can clean up things if it is worth looking into further. Here is what is in /var/log/messages for the first panic: Jun 11 21:18:13 tumbolia /kernel: OSS/FreeBSD loading, address = c0a7d0ac Jun 11 21:18:13 tumbolia /kernel: OSS: 240 minutes of evaluation time left Jun 11 21:37:53 tumbolia /kernel: OSS: 240 minutes of evaluation time left Jun 11 21:37:53 tumbolia /kernel: Jun 11 21:37:53 tumbolia /kernel: Fatal double fault: Jun 11 21:37:53 tumbolia /kernel: eip = 0xc0aacbf0 Jun 11 21:37:53 tumbolia /kernel: esp = 0xc4ca2000 Jun 11 21:37:53 tumbolia /kernel: ebp = 0xc4ca2014 Jun 11 21:37:53 tumbolia /kernel: panic: double fault Jun 11 21:37:53 tumbolia /kernel: Jun 11 21:37:53 tumbolia /kernel: syncing disks... 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 giving up Jun 11 21:37:53 tumbolia /kernel: Automatic reboot in 15 seconds - press a key o n the console to abort David Scheidt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
