Description Peter Eriksson 2019-09-12 11:23:50 UTC
I just noticed that our production servers seems to be accumulating FIN_WAIT_2 state entries in PF (atleast IPv6 ones).

# pfctl -ss | egrep FIN_WAIT_2 | egrep -v 2001 | wc -l
     386
# pfctl -ss | egrep FIN_WAIT_2 | egrep  2001 | wc -l
   23141

Using workaround from bug 222126 seems to wake up the "pf purge" kernel thread again 
(atleast for a while):

# echo "set timeout interval 5" | pfctl -mf -

FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p10
