I've been using automatic, daily snapshots on this system with no problems for a while on various sized UFS2 filesystems. On the course of taking a snapshot yesterday night, the box crashed with the following dump : Dump header from device /dev/ad0s1b Architecture: i386 Architecture Version: 2 Dump Length: 402247680B (383 MB) Blocksize: 512 Dumptime: Tue Jul 17 00:00:06 2007 Hostname: jerry.priv Magic: FreeBSD Kernel Dump Version String: FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE #1: Tue Mar 13 01:41:29 CET 2007 gael@jerry:/home/cvsup/obj/home/cvsup/src/sys/JERRY Panic String: snapacct_ufs2: bad block Dump Parity: 1868970034 Bounds: 4 Dump Status: good From the logs of the snapshot utility I can tell the filesystem which toggled the panic is /var, which on this system is not really large (2Gb). After reboot, the background fsck tried to create a snapshot on the same filesystem which ended up with the same panic, over and over. Manually fscking the filesystems and removing the snapshots cured the problem. Here's the kgdb output on the dump, but unfortunately my kernel is not a debugging one, and the stack seems trashed, so it might not be very useful : $ kgdb /boot/kernel/kernel /var/crash/vmcore.4 kgdb: kvm_nlist(_stopped_cpus): kgdb: kvm_nlist(_stoppcbs): [GDB will not be able to debug user-mode threads: /usr/lib/libthread_db.so: Undefined symbol "ps_pglobal_lookup"] GNU gdb 6.1.1 [FreeBSD] Copyright 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Looks like file system and/or snapshot corruption.
Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-bugs->freebsd-fs Seems more FS related, reassign.
FreeBSD-7-stable is completely unstable for me due to this panic. I used to have regular snapshots enabled on /var and /home. While there has been random (and not quite reproducible) file corruption happened within snapshotted binary files in the past, after upgrading from FreeBSD 6.x to 7-stable, the system went completely unstable due to this panic. It crashes every couple of days now. I have already disabled the regular snapshots, but it's got a tendency for a complete hard lockup during startup after a crash. The only remedy then is to manually fsck everything in single-user mode. Here's the dump information from the recent crash dumps: Dump header from device /dev/ad4s1b Architecture: i386 Architecture Version: 2 Dump Length: 317976576B (303 MB) Blocksize: 512 Dumptime: Wed Jun 25 04:10:25 2008 Hostname: uriah.heep.sax.de Magic: FreeBSD Kernel Dump Version String: FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE #5: Tue Jun 17 15:06:46 MET DST 2008 r@uriah.heep.sax.de:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/URIAH Panic String: snapacct_ufs2: bad block Dump Parity: 558154102 Bounds: 42 Dump Status: good Dump header from device /dev/ad4s1b Architecture: i386 Architecture Version: 2 Dump Length: 180707328B (172 MB) Blocksize: 512 Dumptime: Mon Jun 30 22:05:09 2008 Hostname: uriah.heep.sax.de Magic: FreeBSD Kernel Dump Version String: FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE #6: Mon Jun 30 21:24:35 MET DST 2008 root@uriah.heep.sax.de:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/URIAH Panic String: snapacct_ufs2: bad block Dump Parity: 859829782 Bounds: 43 Dump Status: good I'm going to avoid /any/ kind of snapshot (even dump -L) now just to get a stable system again (hopefully). -- cheers, J"org .-.-. --... ...-- -.. .

Hello, I encounter the same problem since updating from 6.0 to 7.1-RELEASE. The system is a Pentium4 with a 500 Gb RAID1 (twe). The filesystems are clean, in case of the appended dumps the panics happened just after a complete fsck in single-user mode. The panics are not completely reproducable as they happen quite often but not on every single snapshot. -- Martin
Similar problem on 8-stable, crashed during snapshot creation on a UFS2 filesystem. But for me it seems to be caused by HDD errors: acd0: FAILURE - ATA_IDENTIFY status=51<READY,DSC,ERROR> error=4<ABORTED> LBA=0 Device: /dev/ad4, 12 Currently unreadable (pending) sectors Device: /dev/ad4, 12 Offline uncorrectable sectors
I have this panic after crash caused by failed UPS. The system is 8.0-RELEASE-pX. The worse thing is that it caused endless loop of reboots (crash caused background fsck+snapshot which caused panic which caused reboot+fsck etc.) UFS is placed over gmirror-ed disks (additionally checked with smartctl) so I guess low level disk failure is not the cause. I have few dumps available. *blkp is BLK_SNAP *ibp is $5 = {b_bufobj = 0xc585ea14, b_bcount = 16384, b_caller1 = 0x0, b_data = 0xdd1f3000 "\001", b_error = 0, b_iocmd = 2 '\002', b_ioflags = 2 '\002', b_iooffset = 19662389248, b_resid = 0, b_iodone = 0, b_blkno = 38403104, b_offset = -140257722368, b_bobufs = {tqe_next = 0xd9226e90, tqe_prev = 0xd90e9a08}, b_left = 0xd92c08e0, b_right = 0xd9281790, b_vflags = 0, b_freelist = {tqe_next = 0xd90e99d0, tqe_prev = 0xd9226edc}, b_qindex = 2, b_flags = 2147483808, b_xflags = 1 '\001', b_lock = { lock_object = {lo_name = 0xc0a74500 "bufwait", lo_flags = 91422720, lo_data = 0, lo_witness = 0x0}, lk_lock = 3311290624, lk_timo = 0, lk_pri = 80}, b_bufsize = 16384, b_runningbufspace = 0, b_kvabase = 0xdd1f3000 "\001", b_kvasize = 16384, b_lblkno = -8560652, b_vp = 0xc585e96c, b_dirtyoff = 0, b_dirtyend = 0, b_rcred = 0x0, b_wcred = 0x0, b_saveaddr = 0xdd1f3000, b_pager = {pg_reqpage = 0}, b_cluster = {cluster_head = {tqh_first = 0x0, tqh_last = 0x0}, cluster_entry = {tqe_next = 0x0, tqe_prev = 0x0}}, b_pages = {0xc1a7e050, 0xc1a0a568, 0xc1a16ec8, 0xc16fdfe0, 0x0 <repeats 28 times>}, b_npages = 4, b_dep = {lh_first = 0x0}, b_fsprivate1 = 0x0, b_fsprivate2 = 0x0, b_fsprivate3 = 0x0, b_pin_count = 0} -- Marcin Gryszkalis, PGP 0x9F183FA3 jabber jid:mg@fork.pl, gg:2532994 http://the.fork.pl
