I just got this on the file sever while un-tar-ing a huge (8G) archive:
(this is all typed from handwritten notes, so probably slightly wrong)
uvm_fault(0xffff80004e263b10, 0x10, 2)-> e
kernel: page fault trap, code=0
Stopped in pid 8186.1 (tar) at netbsd:dqget+0x118 movq %rdx,0(%rax)
sync
[writing on the data RAID for about 20 seconds]
panic: locking against myself
Stopped in pid 8186.1 (tar) at netbsd:cpu_Debugger+0x1 ret
sync
dump device bad
Looks like I have my dumps misconfigured.
Unfortunately, bt didn't show any more information.
The system runs 4.0 beta2 as of 03Jun plus fvdl's IOAPIC patch.
I now wait for the RAID parity re-build to finish before trying anything else.
And I tried to convince my colleagues that NetBSD was more stable than Linux.
