Hi! I was backing up to an external USB drive:
umass1 at uhub4 port 4 configuration 1 interface 0 umass1: vendor 0x05e3 USB Storage, rev 2.00/97.27, addr 7 umass1: using SCSI over Bulk-Only scsibus1 at umass1: 2 targets, 5 luns per target sd0: GPT GUID: some-guid dk10 at sd0: some name when I accidentally cut power to the drive, which lead to a panic: kernel diagnostic assertion "vp == vp->v_specnode->sn_dev->sd_bdevvp" failed: file "/archive/foreign/src/sys/miscfs/specfs/spec_vnops.c", line 1015 panic in dmesg is nigh unreadable (mixed with "SPL NOT LOWERED ON TRAP EXIT"), but contains at least the following: genfs_do_io genfs_gop_write genfs_do_putpages VOP_PUTPAGES ffs_write VOP_WRITE vn_write dofilewrite sys_write syscall I know it's not smart to turn off the disk while writing to it :) Is there a way to make NetBSD not panic for something like that, though?
