>P.S. I have a bad feeling that this happend even BEFORE mbuma... (a day >or two before you commited that). Why do you have this feeling? Was it occuring before? I've had one report of a similar-nature problem which I believe I fixed in rev 1.2 of kern_mbuf.c. But this might be different. Try backing out the mbuma changes (i.e., going to -CURRENT the day before mbuma) to confirm whether this still occurs. If so, I'd also recommend trying to disable pre-emption, just so we can rule that out as a possibility. To disable pre-emption: - edit src/sys/kern/kern_intr.c - go down to ithread_schedule() - spot this code (around line 412): if (do_switch && (ctd->td_critnest == 1) ) { KASSERT((TD_IS_RUNNING(ctd)), ("ithread_schedule: Bad state for curthread.")); if (ctd->td_flags & TDF_IDLETD) ctd->td_state = TDS_CAN_RUN; /* XXXKSE */ mi_switch(SW_INVOL); } else { curthread->td_flags |= TDF_NEEDRESCHED; } - Change above code to this: #if 0 if (do_switch && (ctd->td_critnest == 1) ) { KASSERT((TD_IS_RUNNING(ctd)), ("ithread_schedule: Bad state for curthread.")); if (ctd->td_flags & TDF_IDLETD) ctd->td_state = TDS_CAN_RUN; /* XXXKSE */ mi_switch(SW_INVOL); } else { #endif curthread->td_flags |= TDF_NEEDRESCHED; /* } */ (leaving only the curthread->td_flags |= TDF_NEEDRESCHED line uncommented). - rebuild and install new kernel. I'd recommend trying to backout to JUST before mbuma before trying the pre-emption disable. Let me know how it goes. -Bosko
