:OK, here's a -current system from today (11/29) morning [4am EST] with
:kernel compiled with DDB and -g.
:
:Tried doing a simple symlink over a NFS mounted filesystem:
:
:fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
:fault virtual address = 0x4
:fault code = supervisor read, page not present
:instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc0167979
:...
:db> trace
:
: vput(0) at vput+0x11
: symlink (c9d4e200, c9d74f80, bfbfdab5, bfbfda9e, bfbfd99c) at symlink+0x1e3
: syscall(2f, 2f, 2f, bfbfd99c, bfbfda9e) at syscall+0x176
: Xint0x80_syscall() at Xint0x80_syscall+0x26
I believe the problem is with the ASSERT_VOP_UNLOCKED macros that have
been added to the symlink code in kern/vfs_syscalls.c, near the
end of the procedure.
Also, I think there's a race condition with the ASSERT_VOP_UNLOCKED()
macros... when a vnode is vput it is possible for it to be freed up,
the assert may not be valid at that point.
Please try this patch:
