Good Day, I've brought up this issue in the past. I've now got a bit more information but still no solution. I am looking for a way to debug this anyway I can.
We got a freebsd 6.2 (FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE #0) machine running if_bridge as a intercept proxy. We have added the following kernel options: options DDB options KDB options BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER options INVARIANTS options INVARIANTS_SUPPORT options WITNESS options DEBUG_VFS_LOCKS options DEBUG_MEMGUARD We were getting an LOR but fixed it but removing "kern.polling.enable" in /etc/sysctl.conf As of right now the machine goes into dead lock within a few hours (only when on the network). I get no WITNESS errors (LORs), or kernel dumps, or anything in the logs that look like an error or out of the ordinary. Is there anything else I could try? or am I looking at a hardware failure? see demsg below. Roger ---DMESG output---- Copyright (c) 1992-2007 The FreeBSD Project.
