Hi Sean, > Please try this patch sooner rather than later. I'd like to get it > patched pre-9.0 at a minimum if this resolves the issues. I'll look at your patch as soon as I get a chance. I did manage to figure out that rearranging the arguments worked around the problem. If we want the 9.0 fwcontrol to work, doesn't kern/144843 need to be fixed? I'm not sure whether to blame the kernel (shouldn't panic unless someone is doing something really screwy like writing random junk into /dev/kmem) or the compiler (maybe generating code that does something sufficiently screwy that the kernel can't defend against it).
