Hi.

I saw that my 4-CURRENT box from 8 February dropped to ddb
after my last make world. I rebuilt world today, and the
same problem is occuring. These problems started occuring
after Matt Dillon's changes to the VM system.

What is worrying/troubling is that in single user mode,
the machine is stable, and manages to build world without
a problem. When booted into multi-user mode, it's stable
and usable for anywhere from 1 to 3 hours, and then
panics. There are no active users on at the time, and the
machine is not heavily loaded (0.0-0.2)

I suspected a hardware error, so swopped all the RAM from a 
production machine, and it still produces the same fault.

The error is
panic: vm_fault: fault on nofault entry, addr : f2572000
Debugger ("panic")
Stopped at Debuger+0x37: movl $0,in_Debugger

When I hit c, I get this :

Syncing disks...

Fatal trap 12 : page fault while in kernel mode
fault virtual address = 0x100008
fault code = supervisor read, page not present
instruction pointer = 0x8:0xf0145d98
stack pointer = 0x10:0xf79b97fc
frame pointer = 0x10:0xf79b9810
code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
             = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1
processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL=0
current process = 2035 (sendmail)
interrupt mask = net tty bio cam
kernel: type 12 trap, code=0
stopped at softclock+0x48: cmpl %esi,0x8 (%ecx)

Does anyone know what this means ? The machine was idle
at the time - I'm the only user, and it isn't used as a
public access server. The process varies, sometimes httpd,
other times sendmail.

I am using CAM, softupdates and NFS (not heavily though).
I haven't seen anything like this on -current or -hackers,
and searching the mailing lists didn't reveal anything
relevant.

The only "non standard" thing I'm doing is disabling the
vfs reallockblks that was causing the machine to panic
months ago. I re-enabled it, and it still does the same
thing. So, that's not it. I'm doing this by issuing
/sbin/sysctl -w vfs.ffs.doreallocblks=0 
on boot up.

My kernel config and dmesg is listed below.

TIA!
