The timecounters overflow to bizarre values if the boot takes a long time (more than about 4 seconds), but there is no problem unless something looks at the time before tc_windup() is working and expects the time to be monotonic. Previously mi_switch() looked at the time before tc_windup() was called, and this was impossible to avoid because getting to tc_windup() involved a context switch. Now the misbehaviour should only be visible using a debugger or debugging code that prints the time.

ccd causing page fault in kernel
Hi, I don't have alot of information to provide yet on this yet. The fault information scrolls off the top of the console... I have /usr/obj mounted on a ccd. Less then 2 minutes into a make world, the console shows a ccd problem, error 5. Page fault in the kernel. The above problem is repeatable (but the machine is not infront of me right now). I unmounted the /usr/obj ccd filesystem, and am running a make world onto the /usr system which is not a ccd and things seem to work fine (so far). It may be monday before I can get a kernel rebuilt with the debugger enabled. This is a single processor machine, UP kernel, sources current as of 11:30am EST.

Re: downgrade?
Dear Alfred Perlstein, caution type="I haven't (as yet) tried this" From the posts I have been reading, I seem to understand that the following may apply (depending on the divergence/relationship between -CURRENT and -STABLE): -- It may be necessary to downgrade the toolchain (e.g. binutils; gcc); -- It may be necessary to downgrade "script"utils (ie perl). /caution Yes you're correct there will be problems with perl, that's why you need a 4.x machine to do the building on and that's also why you may need several 'make -k installworld' runs to finally get a 'make installworld' to work. Oooops, I had another problem in mind. I thought of the theoretical general problem of downgrading a -CURRENT machine in a "self-consistent" fashion (ie on the same machine). I haven't done that (so far), so I am not aware of any [other] unwanted side-effects. AFAIR, a few weeks ago, someone performed such an operation (in the first week of August or so); I read several posts about the matter. If somebody has successfully tried such an operation recently (on a PRE_SMPNG machine), s/he will be able to help Phillip. Anyway, your suggestion sounds safer.

sio problems?
I recently got my digital camera back out, and started pulling the old pictures from it. I noticed something I hadn't ever seen before - silo overflows from the sio port. At the moment, I'm wondering if this is a known problem that is being investigated (SMPNG comes to mind), or something new.

latest ahc panic, more data ...
okay, have been watching the conversation going on in the committers list,
and am watching for any new commits that seem appropriate, but figure
adding a little bit of extra info as I come up with it might help?
latest reboot had a bit more info then the last, and started with:
ahc0:A:1: ahc_intr - referenced scb not valid during seqint 0x73 scb(147)
ach0: WARNING no command for scb 147 (cmdcmplt)

Re: latest ahc panic, more data ...
I've just been hit by one such problem on bootup. This is -current as of
today, so I suspect it's the commits that went in the past two days.
Basically, I tracked it down just enough to know that the problem is
happening during a call to ahc_print_path() in aic7xxx.c, specifically
for me, this happens during bootup in ahc_handle_scsiint() right after
the second call to ahc_abort_scbs().
ahc_print_path() is called like this:
ahc_print_path(ahc, scb);
(why both ahc and scb are being passed, I have no idea, since
ahc_print_path only actually makes use of scb).
For the unaware, ahc_print_path() seems to only wrap a call to
xpt_print_path() to which it passes scb-io_ctx-ccb_h.path as an
argument, and in this case, scb-io_ctx happens to be NULL, so during its
pass, a NULL pointer gets dereferenced and the page fault happens.
The NULLing out of this is coming somewhere in ahc_handle_scsiint(),
because some prior ahc_print_path()s (with the same arguments) are
succeeding.
I have not tried backing out the changes from the past two days and
trying again, but this was not happening a week ago.
So what's going on here?

Re: latest ahc panic, more data ...
there is a thread going on in committers that appears to revolve aroudn
this issue, and Justin has been throwing out patches, so it is being
worked on "fast and furious" ... I'm currently up in Windows (Dual-Boot
machine fo rmy little girl) watching for a physical commit to the
repository that at least suggestions its a fix before rebooting and
upgrading :)
