Hi! I've updated the patch I've tested on 6.3 for 6.4 (only offsets differ), if anyone can test it I can file a PR so it hopefully :) can be committed: http://people.freebsd.org/~nox/linprocfs-6.4.patch (same patch for 6.3: http://people.freebsd.org/~nox/linprocfs-6.3.patch ) The original posting with the patch for RELENG_7 that I used is here:

Hi there, from time to time my PC panics when I insert an empty DVD or CD-R. The kernel locks up instantly after the DVD writer's tray is closed. It seems burning the first DVD isn't critical but inserting the second one seems susceptible. I use k3b as software, which polls the hardware while the tray is open, maybe it's something with hald. Don't know, just use this. I

Hello, My server is experiencing occasional kernel panics when under moderate load. I'm attaching a crash dump and the dmesg output. I'm not sure how to read the kernel backtrace but it looks like the Intel NIC (em0) caused the problem. Occasionally, I used to get a "em0: watchdog timeout -- resetting" error message, but I never had a kernel panic. The problem started last

Hello, I'm running 6.4-PRELEASE, last built on 2008-10-05 with /usr/src updated on the same day. I had a panic that looks to me very similiar to the one described here (hence the subject): http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2008-September/045405.html What caught my curiosity is the message: Unread portion of the kernel message buffer: acd0: WARNING - TEST_UNIT_READY read

Could people who are experiencing boot-time hangs in 4.9-PRERELEASE try the following patch to see if it helps? I've had one positive report so far, but it would be helpful to get more feedback to determine if this is the right fix to be committed. The problem was that interrupts were getting unmasked too early in the boot process, causing an interrupt storm that usually occurred while USB

Hi everybody, today I met the following problems on my freebsd box. I had a USB stick of opensolaris bootable USB image and tried to mount it on my fbsd box. The first time, when I tried to mount the usb device, my system freezed and then rebooted giving me one core in my dumpdev. When I tried to redo the mounting, the kernel informed me that the filesystem needed to be fsck'd before

Hi, I've encountered a strange problem while using FreeBSD 6.0 for our local mirror (mirror.math.uni-bielefeld.de) and thus is providing access via ftp, http, rsync and cvsup (all local and remote). The system crashes periodically with a kernel panic (panic: sbdrop). The uptimes between two crashes are going from a few hours to a few weeks. The system is a i386, Intel Pentium 4 based with
