I have had these problems ever since upgrading to -current about a
month ago. The kernel very regularly spews out messages like:
> Mar 13 14:23:39 gemini /kernel: calcru: negative time of -2663631 usec for pid 568
>(sshd2)
or a message that "microuptime() went backwards'. I have noticed that
these messages usually coincide with moderate to heavy disk IO.
I do not have the dmesg or kernel config here with me right now, but I
believe I can provide most of the usefull information. The system is an
ASUS P2B-DS running ROM revision 1009. It has 2 Pentium II - 400Mhz CPUs,
and is running with 'device apm flags 0x20' to get the stat-clock (this was
needed in FreeBSD-3.x, I have not yet tried without it. I am also
running vinum across 3 disks, one Ultra-2-wide SCSI, and 2 IDE (each on
their own bus). Furthermore I am running xntpd to keep my clock in sync.
Any suggestions?
