Are you eventually able to make some tests on that machine if I send you some instruction/patches? Is the problem 100% reproducible? Can you try by starting with showing "sysctl hw.acpi.handle_reboot" and force it to 0 (and see what happens)? On Apr 20, 2012, at 6:17 PM, Attilio Rao wrote:

Hello Attillio,
I have hardware dedicated to resolving this problem.
The problem is 100% reproducible.
The sysctl you asked for is already set to zero.
sysctl -a |grep handle_reboot
hw.acpi.handle_reboot: 0
--RX

The system is already running the current bios version, 2.3.0.
What relation does handle_reboot have here ? All systems I've checked
have this set to '0'.

It means that your ACPI FADT doesn't likely have RESET_REG on. However, maybe you don't even get to the cpu stopping part, can you apply the following patch and tell me if you see more output before to stop? http://www.freebsd.org/~attilio/shutdowncheck.patch Also do you have a serial console you can use on any of those machines?

Both checkpoints are reached. The last line is "Rebooting...". > Also do you have a serial console you can use on any of those machines? I'll make it happen. --RX While working at setting up the serial console I noticed the system will = reboot at the boot menu by hitting option #3. --RX For bugs matching the following criteria: Status: In Progress Changed: (is less than) 2014-06-01 Reset to default assignee and clear in-progress tags.
