Hi,

I've got nearly the same setup in a Dell 1600SC with a gig of ram and a PERC4/Sc (LSI MegaRAID) card.

Dual 2.4GHz Xeon P4 HT CPU's and I've discovered I can lock up FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE-p2 
on command
simply by running something to quickly create and remove a directory. i.e.:

perl -e 'for(my $i = 0 ; $i < 9999; $i++){ mkdir("abc"); rmdir("abc"); }'


Having machdep.cpu_idle_hlt = 0 makes no difference.



Kernel: FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE-p2 #0: Mon Aug 11 21:40:47 MDT 2003 i386

Raid:
        amr0: <LSILogic MegaRAID> mem 0xfcd00000-0xfcd0ffff irq 3 at device 2.0 on pci1
        amrd0: <LSILogic MegaRAID logical drive> on amr0
        amrd0: 34556MB (70770688 sectors) RAID 5 (optimal)


I suspect that your and my problems are more driver related to the amr driver and may be exposing some other problem with in the kernels fs locking. I don't think (as others have suggested) that
your issue is power related, or related to the combination of hardware you're using. (Other than
the fact that you've got a MegaRAID card).


The exact crash message I'm seeing is:

panic: lockmgr: locking against myself
cpuid = 0; lapic.id 00000000

Dear Sirs.

It seems to me a never ending story. We run a box with a TYAN Thunder
2500 Dual SMP mainboard, 2GB ECC Tyan certified memory, AMI Enterprise
1600 RAID adapter and additional Intel 1000/Pro server type (64 bit)
GBit LAN NIC. With FreeBSD 4.8 this was stable, but to achive this
state was really hard! It is a story similar to that what happend when
we changed towards FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE-p2 on this machine.

It seems to be highly dependend in which PCI slot several cards are
attached, so I will report this here also.

Phenomenon:

After a while the machine was running, the SMP kernel reboots
spontanously. This is when heavy IO is done, compiling or, when in the
morning time our department gets up and our staff connects to the samba
server.

Dependend on which devices are switched on or off by BIOS, the kernel
freezes at the stage when the amr0 RAID got recognized. I can avoid this
by enabling the built in NIC (fxp0). I can force this by putting the em0
NIC into another slot, for instance in the one remaining 64BIT/66MHz
slot (which should be a separate bus).

This 'game' was identical to that I had with FreeBSD 4.X - 4.8 and I
found out, that putting an additional NIC into PCI slot No. 2 (counted
from AGP slot on) made things clear, but using both NICs together
(either additional fxp0 or the new em0) remains the systems completely
unstable.

In FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE-p2 and especially in FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT this
'gambling' seems to reach its climax. My kernel is built up with
SCHED_4BSD because SCHED_ULE and ADAPTIVE_MUTEXES crashes immediately
the same way as described (running a while, then coredumping or freeze
at the stage after the amr0-RAID showed up in the kernel boot messages,
see the dmesg output below).

I'm not an hardware expert, but all this wierd stuff looks like to me to be
a IRQ routing problem. I fiddled around with many hand-assigned IRQ configurations,
but nothing helped. Either the Intel 1000/Pro or the AMI RAID causing
problems in the TYAN Thunder 2500 SMP environment.

We have also a SMP machine with a similar hardware, based on an ASUS CV4X-D,
AMI Elite 1600 RAID controller and the same Intel em0 1GBit NIC. OS is
FreeBSD 4.8 and this system never had any problem!

I feel a little bit helpless this moment, because I think I tried every trick
and something seems to be wrong with the combination TYAN Thunder 2500 and FreeBSD
5.X SMP. It is also very courios, that a kernel without SMP/IO_APIC freezes after
booting at the same place (amr0 RAID recognition).

Is there any help outside?

I attach the kernel config file and the dmesg output. Please note: I disabled both
serial ports, the parallel port, sound and usb to get additional IRQs. But I have to
enable the built in NIC to get a bootable, but instable FreeBSD 5.1-R box.
