David,
I haven't had a chance to try it in UP mode. For that I need to compile
a kernel and my (only FreeBSD) box isn't stable enough to permit that.
The motherboard I'm using is Abit BP6 with two celerons (it was popular
back in 99). I'm running non-ecc RAM.
While I try to reproduce it with a UP kernel and more reliable RAM, I
have some indications on where some of these are coming from:
I have a suspicion that in kern_mutex.c:510,
if (td1->td_priority < td->td_priority)
there may be circumstances in which td1 could be pointing to memory that
has been freed. I've got a bunch of panics which result in kernel mode
page faults at 0xdeadxxxx.
