Hi,
I have several hosts running FreeBSD/amd64 7.2-STABLE updated on 11.01.2010
and 25.02.2010. Hosts process about 10K input and 10K output packets/s
without issues. One of them, however, is loaded more than others, so it
processes 20K/20K packets/s.
Recently, I have upgraded one host to 7.3-STABLE, 24.08.2010.
Then bge on this host hung two times. I was able to restart it from
console using:
/etc/rc.d/netif restart bge0
Then I have upgraded the most loaded (20K/20K) host to 7.3-STABLE, 07.09.2010.
After reboot bge hung every several seconds. I was able to restart it,
but bge hung again after several seconds.
Then I have downgraded this host to 7.3-STABLE, 14.08.2010, since there
were several if_bge.c commits on 15.08.2010. The same hangs.
Then I have downgraded this host to 7.3-STABLE, 17.03.2010, before
the first if_bge.c commit after 25.02.2010. Now it runs without hangs.
The hosts are amd64 dual core SMP with 4G machines. bge information:
