Re: em0 watchdog timeout with nfs

2007-05-02 Thread Jasper Berlijn
Hi all,

The problem still exists, the following I've tried:
* Using: FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p4
* Disabled all 'interal' devices (usb / serial / sound)
* Also tried dcgdis.ThisIsZip (the Ethernet Controller didn't need this,
but tried it anyway)
* Swapped with a new em network card and swithed pci bus.

Also using iperf the timeouts occurs! (without nfs)

Reverted back to 4.11 which is still running stable (also with iperf)

Any ideas?

 The driver in 6.2 RELEASE fixed all known problems with
 watchdogs, other than REAL issues with the network/hardware.
 Have you tried installing that?

A friend of mine has reported similar problem, with different em(4)
hardware.  The server runs lighttpd on ufs, and the watchdog timeout
occurs no matter whether there is heavy traffic.

Here is some pciconf -l output which can be interesting.

Should more debugging aid / information is needed to narrow down the
issue please let us know, thanks!

Forgot to mention, the em0 (which have watchdog issue) has device
polling turned on.

I've reported similar problems multiple times w/o any response.  My nic
is onboard (no msi involved, no polling used):

When I boot I also see massive #'s of link state transitions while
dhclient fetches a lease.  I've swapped cables, switch ports, etc.  I
can believe it might be a h/w failure but was hoping I could isolate the
issue to be certain (don't like discarding the onboard nic).

This is a very current HEAD and has been a problem for several months
(all against HEAD).

em0 watchdog timeout with nfs

2007-04-05 Thread Jasper Berlijn
Hi, 

At this moment I'm running FreeBSD 4.11 without any problems. A couple
of times I've tried to upgrade to 6.x but without any luck because of
the watchdog timeout errors on em0 when using nfs.

Mar 30 11:30:48 large kernel: em0: watchdog timeout -- resetting
Mar 30 11:30:48 large kernel: em0: link state changed to DOWN
Mar 30 11:30:51 large kernel: em0: link state changed to UP
Mar 30 11:31:01 large kernel: em0: watchdog timeout -- resetting
Mar 30 11:31:01 large kernel: em0: link state changed to DOWN
Mar 30 11:31:03 large kernel: em0: link state changed to UP
Mar 30 11:31:20 large kernel: em0: watchdog timeout -- resetting
Mar 30 11:31:20 large kernel: em0: link state changed to DOWN
Mar 30 11:31:23 large kernel: em0: link state changed to UP

When I try to copy a large file (1gb) then after a couple of mb's
(100mb) the wachtdog timeout will occur. The system is most of the time
idle. Using debug.mpsafenet=0 in /boot/loader.conf doesn't make any

Any ideas?

Running RELENG_6 (FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE (GENERIC) #0: Wed Mar 28 14:32:07
CEST 2007). The network is running at (1000baseTX full-duplex)

This system is dual boot so it's easy to switch from 4.11 (RELENG_4) and
RELENG_6. The system is running without any problem on 4.11.
