Description shikut 2000-09-02 07:50:00 UTC
Computer description: 586-100Mhz, 32Mb RAM, 2Gb HDD, Digiboard PC/Xe (on isa), 8 Telebit XPresso modems.
This kernel message appear some times imediatly after modems disconnection, but not always. It's very strange for me, cause on FreeBSD 3.3.0 there are no such messages.

Solution of this problem is very important for me, cause am trying to setup 3.5.1 on uucp server with more then 800 users. If it possible, answer to me as quickly as it possible.

Fix: 

No fix.
How-To-Repeat: I don't know.

Hi gents,

Could you two take a look at PR kern/20992?  The reported error message
was introduced by Peter, but it looks like it may have been tickled by
Poul-Henning's change to the dgb(4) driver.

Thanks,
Sheldon.

Hmm, I think I have to pass on this one.  I just checked the changes
I've made and I don't see any which I can implicate in this.

Are you sure there are enough kernel resources for your needs ?
Consider yanking maxusers up a bit...

What's the value associated with maxusers in your kernel config?

    maxuser value in kernel config is 32...

    May be You also need dmesg and "sysctl -a" output? There are
attachments, plus my kernel config.

tty_subr.c and dgb didn't change between 3.3 and 3.5, and the driver
may be sio anyway.  (Who knows what is in 3.5.1?  It isn't tagged.)
sio.c has some small probably-unrelated changes.  if_sl.c has some small
possibly-related changes.  I think the only way there can be no reserved
cblocks is when slip of ppp sets the reservation to 0 and the reservation
for termios discipline somehow doesn't get restored.
