My i386 box was mostly doing not-much with a couple of users running irc
and reading mail and such, when the following panic struct:
panic: kernel diagnostic assertion "to_ticks >= 0" failed: file "../../../../kern/kern_timeout.c", line 281
gdb backtrace from the crash dump looks like:
#0 0x3fd30000 in ?? ()
#1 0xc03aeb1f in cpu_reboot ()
#2 0xc0324654 in panic ()
#3 0xc048f950 in __assert ()
#4 0xc031d4d1 in callout_schedule ()
#5 0xc0127208 in tcp_input ()
#6 0xc011eafc in ip_input ()
#7 0xc011e4ed in ipintr ()
#8 0xc010ab70 in Xsoftnet ()
This looks like the same thing as in kern/22551 from 2003 which is apparently
still open. The machine is:
NetBSD puuhamaa 2.0_BETA NetBSD 2.0_BETA (PUUHAMAA2) #2: Wed Aug 18 15:19:06 EEST 2004 root@puuhamaa:/sys/arch/i386/compile/PUUHAMAA2 i386
Unless this has been fixed singe Aug 18, does anyone have ideas what might
cause this? I can help with digging, but I don't know how to reproduce this
(and it wouldn't make other users too happy either)
