Running a fairly recent RELENG_6 SMP kernel, I had a nasty experience
where filesystem corruption on a pair of RAID5 volumes on an arcmsr
would cause the machine to panic during the background fsck. This
resulted in a merry crash-reboot-crash cycle until I booted on to an
install CD, ran a foreground fsck and fixed the errors.
Given that this machine *is* a file server I'm rather eager to make sure
the problem doesn't happen again.
I'm not familiar with the code at all, but all three panics look like
they're
happening in soft-update sections:
Unread portion of the kernel message buffer:
panic: softdep_setup_freeblocks: inode busy
cpuid = 0

Previous frame inner to this frame (corrupt stack?)
I've filed a PR about it (which has two more backtraces):
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=107206
Can anyone suggest further action?
