See the chapter on kernel debugging in the developers' handbook to
learn how to obtain the necessary information for a developer to begin
investigating this.

Also make sure you're running with all of the 5.3 errata patches, and
consider updating to 5.4-PRERELEASE to see if it's fixed already.

server crash "panic: spin lock held too long"

2005-03-20 Thread Gerard Meijer
Hi I have a P4 2.6Mhz running on FreeBSD 5.3.

Every few days the server crashes. When it crashes it says:

spin lock sleepq chain held by 0xc1eb7640 for > 5 seconds
panic: spin lock held too long
Uptime: 2d3h56m36s

Anybody any idea how I can fix this?

Thanks!
