Howdy!
I have a pool of diskless NFS clients running cgi programs for
a similar pool of NFS clients serving http to the internet.
The hardware and general setup of all client NFS hardware/software
is identical the only difference being that cgi machines run a lot
of perl/php/.... etc .... cgi stuff.
After upgrading to 4.5, the servers serving http are very
stable, as it was with 4.4
However, the servers running cgi programs are unstable, all
of them will panic after uptimes from 30 mins. to several hours.
However, these same servers are stable running kernel 4.4-RELEASE-p9
in a 4.5-RELEASE userland.
I have verified that the panic occurs with the latest 4.5-STABLE.
The NFS servers are 4.5-STABLE from about Feb 21.
I built a kernel with DDB, and the panics are always the
same. I am inexperienced in debugging FreeBSD kernels but am willing
to help in any way I can and have dedicated use of a machine for
debugging/testing.
Here is a console output and db trace at panic for your
enjoyment.
