System: NetBSD setting-sun.meka2001.de 1.5Q NetBSD 1.5Q (SETTINGSUN) #9: Thu Jan 11 23:32:20 MET 2001 martin@setting-sun.duskware.de:/usr/src/sys/arch/sparc64/compile/SETTINGSUN
Architecture: sparc64
Machine: sparc64
>Description:
With only 64 MB of memory on a sparc64 machine I could reproduceably panic
the machine by removing large, deep file trees.
I have no clue if this is sparc64 pmap using a to low NKMEMPAGES_MAX value
or a general runaway ubc/softdep problem (that's why category is kern, not
sparc64, please reassign if analyzis points at culprit ;-) )
>How-To-Repeat:
when /usr/pkgsrc is the complete NetBSD pkgsrc tree, on ffs, with softdeps
enabled:
rm -rf /usr/pkkgsrc
>Fix:
n/a
