Maybe. I don't have the backtrace handy. It had to do with S/U, so it probably is then. I didn't see it on my amd64 box, so I assumed it was specific to PowerPC. Setting mpsave_vfs=1 solved it for me (or should I say avoided it for me? :-) I figured it's better to hunt down bugs in the mpsafe_vfs=1 case then it is in the mpsafe_vfs=0 case. This is not to say that mpsafe_vfs=0 can be broken, but rather that I prefer to work on improving the mpsafe_vfs=1 case... Hmmm, maybe I don't have S/U on amd64 box (I don't bother to partition my development boxes, so I typically only have a / mount that has S/U. Everything is basically over NFS...) -- Marcel Moolenaar [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ cvs-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
