Umm, I know nothing about this. If there is a bug in the SCSI subsystem that causes crashes, why haven't I heard about it? And which machine at "cdrom.com" is crashing? > I think we have the same problem, do you know more about this? > The error message is: > devstat_end_transaction: HELP!! busy_count for da2 < 0 (-245774) > biodone: buffer already done > > the busy counts gets more and more negative. Now that is interesting. That indicates that, somehow or another, transactions are getting done more than once. Which version of sys/cam/scsi/scsi_da.c do you have? Can you mail me the file? If you're getting crashes, it would help immensely if you could provide a stack trace from the panic.
