Created attachment 149586 [details] core.txt file from the panic I had a fairly solid system running 9.x and decided to upgrade to 10.1. The rebuild went smoothly, the same kernel-config was built cleanly. I rebuilt all of the X11-ports and tried starting xdm as usual. The machine rebooted after a panic (see attachment for more details): panic: make_dev_credv: bad si_name (error=17, si_name=dri/card0) Apparently, this is problem has been known to the x11@ folks for a while -- when the new X11-drivers try to load DRM2, the kernels with the "old" DRM in them will panic: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2014-September/079868.html While the recommended work-around -- remove "device drm" and "device radeondrm" from kernel config -- helped me get going, it should not be necessary: 1. There must be no panic 2. If DRM2 can not coexist with DRM, it must check for the condition and report an error. 3. If DRM2 is a replacement for DRM, why not remove the old "device" altogether? No doubt, the x11@ group is aware of the problem. This ticket is intended to help them track it.
Mikhail, good day. I had just patched DRM w.r.t. off-by-one access that will be provoked by the userland that is KMS-enabled on the kernel that doesn't support KMS. The patch is now only in -CURRENT, but you can try to apply http://codelabs.ru/fbsd/patches/drm2/fix-drm_drv-off-by-one.diff to your 10.x sources and rebuild kernel: it may eliminate the panic. Could you, please, test?
Also, a backtrace from the panic (kgdb /boot/$DRM-ENABLED-KERNEL/kernel.debug /var/crash/vmcore.1 and "bt" from inside kgdb) will be great here.
Thanks, Eugene, for the prompt response, but I've already figured, that I am much happier with the xf86-video-ati-ums driver for my card -- it has no GL hardware and the newest drivers were outrageously slow on it, even though DRM worked. I've rebuilt my kernel here a number of times since encountering that panic and can no longer obtain the backtrace...
Is this still an issue with the updated DRM drivers and a more recent version of FreeBSD?
Looking at your comments, it seems this is no longer an issue, so I'm closing this. If it's an issue, please re-open this bug or create a new one. Regards Niclas
