OK, this doesn't look good.  Somehow, that file appears to contain a load
of \0 characters.

Looking into where exactly in the file this appears (lines 14678-14688):

               set_resigntime(zone);
               UNLOCK_ZONE(zone);
       }

       isc_time_settoepoch(&zone->refreshkeytime);

       /*
        * If we're doing key maintenance, set the key refresh timer to
        * the next scheduled key event or to one hour in the future,
        * whichever is sooner.
        */

The null characters start exactly at 0x60000 into the file, a page
boundary:

005ffd0  6e 74 69 6d 65 28 7a 6f 6e 65 29 3b 0a 09 09 55 |ntime(zone);...U|
005ffe0  4e 4c 4f 43 4b 5f 5a 4f 4e 45 28 7a 6f 6e 65 29 |NLOCK_ZONE(zone)|
005fff0  3b 0a 09 7d 0a 0a 09 69 73 63 5f 74 69 6d 65 5f |;..}...isc_time_|
0060000  73 65 74 74 6f 65 70 6f 63 68 28 26 7a 6f 6e 65 |settoepoch(&zone|

So, at least one whole page has been replaced by a page of zeros.  This
feels like it could actually be a VM issue, though it could also be
storage.  What drives are you using on this system (AHCI?  SSD?), and are
you using anything like e.g. geom_mirror?  A full dmesg may be useful.

Hi Gavin:

Thanks for your reply. I am using AHCI on a single disk. I believe what happened was that I had some disk corruption recently, fixed by a full fsck in single user mode. After fixing that and rebooting I started to see this problem. I was able to fix it by deleting /usr/src and doing a fresh svn co. Now buildworld compiles successfully. So, it was a local problem on this machine and not anything with the source code as I did not see anyone else report this problem.

Thanks again for your help, sorry for the noise.

Andy
