After upgrading to 5-STABLE (about Aug 6), it works very good. With
mpsafenet=1, it can work more than one day without panic. For 5.4-p5, it
will panic at most half day or so. This bug seems fixed after 5.4 is
released. I'll keep watching this machine. Will let you know if it still
have similar panics ;-)
If you can confirm that the problem really is fixed in -STABLE, there are
two sets of changes that may be relevant:
- There are a number of SACK-related bug fixes in RELENG_5 that are not in
the RELENG_5_4 branch.
- There are a number of TCP/inpcb-related locking fixes (one in particular
for IPv6) that are in RELENG_5 but not RELENG_5_4.
We can then try and figure out which change it is that's helping, and get
that merged to RELENG_5_4 as an errata item. If you have IPv6 traffic,
there are some fixes I made a month or two ago that might be particularly
relevant during connection tear-down.
