So the last e-mail I sent before this week I asked if you could get a crashdump from DDB? The "flswai" case you pointed to was a lock deadlock, and having a crashdump would be really helpful for figuring out which threads were deadlocked. Barring a crashdump, capturing 'ps' output from DDB would be a good first step (you can sanitize process names if you need to). However, a crashdump that you can use kgdb on will make debugging this significantly easier. -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
