I've now seen this on two different VMs on two different ESXi servers (Xeon based hosts but different hardware otherwise and at different facilities): Everything runs fine for weeks then (seemingly) suddenly/randomly the clock STOPS. In the first case I saw a jump backwards of about 15 minutes (and then a 'freeze' of the clock). The second time just 'time standing

Hi, Did anyone else experience this? With 9.1-BETA1 the boot process freezes, among the last lines with verbose boot are acpi_acad0: On Line acpi_acad0: acline initialization done, tried 1 times after this, dead. What is supposed to happen in the next stage? This laptop worked fine with 9-STABLE to at least february. //per

I have an old Dell 1950 that I've rescued from Linux and tossed a copy of -STABLE on it, but am seeing a constant 0.5 load average. With the system completely idle, and kern.eventtimer.timer=LACPI, the load drops to the expected value of zero. This feels like it should be an FAQ, but short of noting that the load is non-zero, is there a programatic way to determine if the event timer is

Hi all. I just upgraded my server from 4.7-Stable to 5.0-Release by a full install. Now I hit a problem with the date.. the time goes much faster than normal.. maybe twice as normal... this morning I found the following kernel log in /var/log/messages May 26 17:23:58 jupiter kernel: Timecounter "i8254" frequency 1193182 Hz May 26 17:23:58 jupiter kernel: Timecounter "TSC"

Hello all. I have a supermicro 16 bay box with a LSI 9211-8i card. We use it for temp data storage, and we wanted to try the l4z compression. After updating the source tree to r247839: and doing a make buildworld cycle all works fine. But at boot time we get some warnings. make_dev_physpath_alias: WARNING - Unable to alias gptid/281951f4-a996-11e1-83eb-00259061b51a to enc at

Hello, I am attempting to get by broadcom wifi card up and running, am sick of trying to get ndis working, and am attempting to use the bwi driver (originating in dragonflyBSD). I'm hoping others here have tried to do the same and have some pointers. I'm using 7.1-RELEASE (system/source are in-sync) and my card is a BCM94306MP. My dmesg is posted below. Bwi(4) is installed and it

Hi, I was trying to rebuild world on a FreeBSD 10 test system, that I had just installed. ZFS root was setup. I let the installation program do all the ZFS setup and configuration. I put root on a 5 disk encrypted raidz array. Besides the installer configuring 5 times the amount of swap space I asked for (asked for 8gb, installer put 8gb on each drive, for 40gb in total.) everything was working

Hi, I have a problem, probably with the SiI 3512 SATA150 controller in a dual-Opteron IBM eServer 326: Every once a while the kernel issues a message like: ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=150190687 The system waits a few seconds and continues to work normally. It typically occurs several times a day most likely depending on the load of the (SATA connected) hard drive.

One of our FreeBSD boxes has a SCSI controller and disk, which showed problems earlier this week. There was a lot of of chatter from the SCSI driver in /var/log/messages and to the console. However, the console is unattended and we only discovered the problem subsequently because /var/log/console.log didn't show any of the chatter. console.log is otherwise working, and very helpful (e.g. it

I have an Asus A8V-MX motherboard with an AMD Athlong 64 X2 3800+ CPU and I'm trying to run powerd to keep it cooler/quieter/greener. I'm running -STABLE (6.1-RC) cvsup'ed a couple of days ago, with a kernel config that consists of the SMP sample plus an atapicam device. I'm loading the cpufreq.ko module in /boot/loader.conf. I've attached my dmesg output and sysctl -a

Hi, I currently encounter spin lock 0xc0c83ba8 (sio) held by 0xc6337460 (tid 100005) too long panic: spin lock held too long cpuid=3 on hp server with two dual-core intel xeon (3.8GHz) and 3GB RAM.

Hi all, I have some problems with my gvinum setup after the system panic'ed. Afterwards the system fails finding the plexes to the subdisks (or at least that is what I can understand after having searched the gvinum source code for the error string in the DMESG log..) The machine is an IBM Netfinity 5000 and the internal HW self tests does not find any errors in the hw. Luckily my root is

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

This morning, I upgraded my main system to an up-to-date -STABLE including acpi and it now hangs during shutdown after reporting: Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `vnlru' to stop...stopped If I set hw.acpi.disable_on_poweroff=0 then the shutdown completes but poweroff fails with (hand copied): ACPI-1287: ***Error: Method execution failed [\_PTS] (Node 0xc21ed450),

I did not have a console attached when it rebooted, so I did not have a log of the initial boot. Now that I did, I see that it fails to mount its root volume. It had been running previously on pvhvm_v10 for about

I have a new system which includes a Plextor PX-740a DVD+-R/RW CD-R/RW drive attached to an Asus A8V-MX motherboard. When I try to use burncd to burn a cd, it writes all of the data, says "fixating CD, please wait.." and then reports burncd: ioctl(CDRIOCFIXATE): Input/output error Oddly enough, the CD seems to be usable. I can successfully burn the same file if I use cdrecord. The

Good morning, I'm having a bit of an issue getting a 3CR990B-TXM NIC detected and usable. Just wondering if anyone knows of any issues with this NIC chipset and/or with the motherboard chipset. The motherboard is a Biostar GeForce 6100 AM2 using an nVidia nForce 410 chipset and nVidia GeForce 6100 vide chipset. I've tried FreeBSD 6.1, 6.2, 6-STABLE (from Wed), and 7-CURRENT (from
