Description Leonardo Bianconi 2021-03-04 17:56:24 UTC
I faced a kernel panic while transferring large files in parallel through the network in a PowerPC BE virtual machine.

My network was configured with virtio legacy.

Command executed: scp <user>@<source machine ip>:<file> ./ & scp <user>@<source machine ip>:<file> ./copy2/


Error output:
Kernel page fault with the following non-sleepable locks held:
exclusive sleep mutex vtnet0-tx0 (vtnet0-tx0) r = 0 (0x44d0100) locked @ /usr/src/sys/dev/virtio/network/if_vtnet.c:2760
