Description

It appears on i386 there may be a regression after

commit 79fd1696254e1413ba2bd0b0c029e2acd9ba416a
Date: Fri Feb 22 21:57:45 2013 -0800

kernel - Implement shared namecache locks

and possibly including

commit 1327cb0bd0b371b2d8c86c95cf0f6c84880b215b
Date: Sat Feb 23 11:49:31 2013 -0800

debug - vmpageinfo changes

that results in booting hanging at

mounting devfs

Attached is a dmesg of one of the machines. So far this has been tested on an Intel and an AMD64 machine that could run x86_64 but for which I also have a partition running i386.

I am compiling world and kernel using

  1. make -j7 buildworld && make CCVER=gcc44 buildkernel

i am not sure "&& make CCVER=gcc44" is doing anything.
for buildkernel, it should be "&& make WORLD_CCVER=gcc44"
(see man 5 make.conf)

I suspect the kernel has been building with gcc47 this whole time.

Thanks to the recommendation to mv / delete /include on

http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/2505

I have been able to switch all of my machines to use the default gcc 4.7 for everything.

However I have also been able to reproduce the hang after

Mounting devfs

on multiple machines running i386.

My own bisect tests on i386 point to 1b3342693b737646f3cab0715e31ec6ab5216b38 as the first problematic commit.
That is: <malloc.h>: Restrict support for <malloc.h> to !defined(STDC).

... and this was the last good commit.

The devfs mount issue appears with the next one, ce94514e6b38abad5c78107e3d1ac401117df5c4
"kernel - Implementat much deeper use of shared VM object locks"

Sorry for the confusion.

kernel - Fix vm.shared_fault for vkernels and 32-bit

has been successfully tested on two machines running i386, one an Asrock Z77M Intel I3 and the other an Asus M5A87 AMD64, with successful booting and operation. Thanks!
