I don't know exactly, but I started noticing problems about one month
ago. Just to make sure, SSE isn't enabled by default, is it? (looks
like it is not according to NOTES)

However, the mean time between crashes has been increased since I
removed PostgreSQL, Zope and Squid, which were sometimes disk
intensive (especially Squid).

Is there any way the dump I generated could help? (e.g., for checking
invariants or locking structures of the disk?)

ATA disks problem in -CURRENT

2001-07-16 Thread Samuel Tardieu

With recent -CURRENT kernels (including one from yesterday), I get
random strange behaviours as far as my ATA disk is concerned:

  - the disk light stays on;
  - I can read from the disk but cannot write anything to it (sync
blocks, writes from vi block, ...);
  - suspending then resuming the laptop doesn't help;
  - I can get to DDB and use panic to dump the kernel, but it points
me to the keyboard interrupt since I used ctrl-alt-esc to get
there.

It is on a Sony VAIO PCG-Z600NE, with the bundled 12GB HDD:

atapci0:  port 0xfcb0-0xfcbf at device 7.1 on pci0
ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0
ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0
ad0: 11513MB  [23392/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA33
