The freeze seems to be a dead-lock, and tmux expose it. ddb> ps PID PPID PGRP UID S FLAGS WAIT COMMAND [...] 13243 1 13243 0 3 0 inode tmux [...] Here, tmux is waiting "inode". This wait message is set here: ufs/ext2fs/ext2fs_vfsops.c 831: lockinit(&ip->i_lock, PINOD, "inode", 0, 0); ufs/ffs/ffs_vfsops.c 1257: lockinit(&ip->i_lock, PINOD, "inode", 0, 0); And if I let the system running, several others process fall in "inode" waiting (as cron, or login_passwd if I try login). With ddb, if I check locked vnodes, there are two on root partition. ddb> show all mounts flags 50000<LOCAL,ROOTFS> vnodecovered 0x0 syncer 0xd316aa60 data 0xd108a200 vfsconf: ops 0xd098d7a0 name "ffs" num 1 ref 3 flags 0x1000 statvfs cache: bsize 800 iosize 4000 blocks 403383 free 375320 avail 355151 files 102910 ffiles 100646 favail 100646 f_fsidx {0x400, 0xc8a5ad54} owner 0 ctime 0x52640b1d syncwrites 325 asyncwrites = 340 syncreads 8881 asyncreads = 0 fstype "ffs" mnton "/" mntfrom "/dev/sd0a" mntspec "ab8fcda4850f14e9.a" locked vnodes: 0xd3165ea8, 0xd316a310 [... others partitions stripped ...] ddb> show vnode 0xd3165ea8 tag UFS(1) type VCHR(4) mount 0xd108b400 typedata 0xd0ffb100 data 0xd3161298 usecount 2 writecount 0 holdcnt 0 numoutput 0 ddb> show vnode 0xd316a310 tag UFS(1) type VDIR(2) mount 0xd108b400 typedata 0x0 data 0xd31851ec usecount 1 writecount 0 holdcnt 3 numoutput 0 Does someone have any clue, about what to check or how to debug this ? I think I will try the option VFSLCKDEBUG in kernel, but what else ? -- Sébastien Marie
