Installed 13.4-BETA1 under VirtualBox, FreeBSD 14.0 host fully up-to-date as of Aug 4. Ran desktop-installer and was waiting for the many pkg installs to run, when suddenly the VM rebooted. Got the following from /var/crash: Dump header from device: /dev/ada0p3 Architecture: amd64 Architecture Version: 2 Dump Length: 225968128 Blocksize: 512 Compression: none Dumptime: 2024-08-05 18:52:10 -0500 Hostname: freebsd13.local Magic: FreeBSD Kernel Dump Version String: FreeBSD 13.4-BETA1 releng/13.4-n258208-e192230d0de8 GENERIC Panic String: sleeping thread Dump Parity: 3764632698 Bounds: 0 Dump Status: good After removing the corrupted pkg database (local.sqlite) and starting over, desktop-installer completed without incident. I will continue to run the VM and follow up if any more problems occur.
Please provide at least the core.txt from this crash so that we can see the backtrace.
(In reply to Mark Johnston from comment #1) core.txt simply states that no gdb was found. As I'm unable to attach a tarball of /var/crash, I placed a copy at https://acadix.biz/Debug/crash.txz.
Created attachment 252655 [details] Manually generated core.txt.0 Following the developer's handbook, I manually ran crashinfo after installing gdb to regenerate the core.txt.0 file attached here.
This looks to be a bug in the virtualbox kernel module. After a bit of time looking, I can't really tell which lock it's referring to. I pushed commit aea9dba46b81abc5c0fd4c42d3ac762d3bc1de37 to help address that, but that doesn't help here of course.
(In reply to Mark Johnston from comment #4) I repeated the installation from scratch with the exact same VM config, and did not reproduce the problem. Since it's intermittent, and probably VirtualBox-specific, I wouldn't give it a high priority.
