Superficially, this seams identical to a deadlock I reported for 7.1-RC1. Would you mind compiling a kernel with these options: options DDB options KDB options SW_WATCHDOG options DEBUG_VFS_LOCKS then add the following to /etc/rc.conf: watchdogd_enable="YES" watchdogd_flags="-e 'ls -al /etc'" This should force a panic when the lockup happens again, which will drop to a debugger. Please check the backtrace, and tell me if the call stack is the same as this one (between the --- interrupt, and --- syscall sections): KDB: stack backtrace: db_trace_self_wrapper(c0b55b52,e66e0ae0,c07615e9,c0b50617,8ca93,...) at db_trace_self_wrapper+0x26 kdb_backtrace(c0b50617,8ca93,0,c41a7690,2,...) at kdb_backtrace+0x29 hardclock(0,c07ff29d,0,0,4,...) at hardclock+0x1f9 lapic_handle_timer(e66e0b08) at lapic_handle_timer+0x9c Xtimerint() at Xtimerint+0x1f --- interrupt, eip = 0xc07ff29d, esp = 0xe66e0b48, ebp = 0xe66e0c34 --- kern_sendfile(c41a7690,e66e0cfc,0,0,0,...) at kern_sendfile+0x90d do_sendfile(e66e0d2c,c0aba265,c41a7690,e66e0cfc,20,...) at do_sendfile+0xb1 sendfile(c41a7690,e66e0cfc,20,16,e66e0d2c,...) at sendfile+0x13 syscall(e66e0d38) at syscall+0x335 Xint0x80_syscall() at Xint0x80_syscall+0x20 --- syscall (393, FreeBSD ELF32, sendfile), eip = 0x282cb0cb, esp = 0xbfbfc7cc, ebp = 0xbfbfe848 --- KDB: enter: watchdog timeout You can type 'reboot' to reboot the machine (in my case, panic would not work, so a useful dump wasn't in the cards) _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
