Bug #2296
open
panic: assertion "m->wire_count > 0" failed
0%
Description
With recent (29/1-12) master and rel3_0 I get this panic
during parallel make release and buildworld, e.g.:
'make MAKE_JOBS=10 release' (i.e. make -j10)
i386 STANDARD
(custom kernel, includes INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE)
on 8 core host (opteron).
Got this panic twice; succeeds w/o MAKE_JOBS
Core dump at leaf: ~thomas:crash/octopus.i386.3
Updated by thomas.nikolajsen almost 13 years ago
Some additional observations:
I have only seens this issue on i386, not on x86_64,
so it seems to be specific for i386.
I have only seen issue while doing buildworld
(e.g. as part of make release), not while doing quickworld.
(this & kernel build is the parallel workloads I do most on this host)
As originally noted: issue seen with -j10 on 8 core system using SMP kernel;
not seen w/o -jN; haven't tried lower N.
On UP system running SMP kernel I haven't observed issue;
this was using -j3.

My crash dump 11 on leaf seems to be an instance of this bug.
Updated by thomas.nikolajsen almost 13 years ago
- Priority changed from Normal to High
Problem still present in rel3_0;
just did test again, as per original description,
panic on 1st try, again :(
x86_64 code in failing area is changed more recently than i386,
maybe this is related.

Did some more tests, reducing number of used CPUs and/or parallel jobs,
didn't get any crash from 3-4 runs of each: i386:
- on 8 cpu system: 'make MAKE_JOBS=5 release'
- using 4 cpu: (hw.ap_max=3): 'make MAKE_JOBS=10 release'
Looking at build logs: panic reported earlier happened during
build of git (scmgit), or some dependency.
My setup uses NFS for /usr/src and /usr/pkgsrc,
and HAMMER for the rest (e.g. /usr/release).
(don't know if NFS use is important for triggering panic)
Updated by vsrinivas almost 13 years ago
Aha, NFS might be at fault. I'll switch to trying to reproduce it there. I've done five days of kernel building at -j10 on a 2-cpu i386/GENERIC system, haven't managed to reproduce it, but all my filesystems are UFS there.
In the core uploaded, there is a page table page marked as not only not wired, but also on the free queue and PG_ZEROed. That's a pretty unexpected, bad state.
The x86-64 pmap is constructed fairly differently wrt synchronization than the i386 version; the i386 pmap uses the vm_token still, whereas the x86-64 one uses a fine-grained approach at the page level. The vm_token is rather easy to lose in blocking conditions, which might be the issue at fault here (we're losing a token and stuff is getting changed under us).

Got panic while testing w/o NFS use.
This time 1st round (of make release) succeded;
got panic early in 2nd round (during buildworld 4a).
A wild guess: I usually run shell script doing some sysctl's, to see system load, like cpu freq (running powerd); didn't do that on 1st round, maybe sysctl can be part of trigger (saw other sysctl related bug on bugs@).
Anyway: doing test on x86_64 now to see if it's clean; didn't do much testing for this bug there yet.
Updated by thomas.nikolajsen almost 13 years ago
x86_64 seems clean: 7 rounds succeeded.
This is using setup as in initial description:
'make MAKE_JOBS=10 release' on 8 cpu host
w/ NFS for /usr/src & /usr/pkgsrc.
Seems like we should port our current x86_64
pmap implementation to i386.
Updated by thomas.nikolajsen over 12 years ago
Note: on v3.0.1 i386 system building dfly v3.0.1
(which I understand we are going to release)
once (to install on UP stable system here)
caused this panic during buildworld.
This was on 8 core system using my usual params,
-j10, did new build using -j4, which succeded.
This is somewhat ironic, but just what should be expected from earlier observations on this bug.
If we release v3.0.1 we might consider not supporting
i386 w/ more than 4 cores, until this bug is resolved.
Updated by phma over 12 years ago
I have only 2 cpus and I've seen this bug.
I also found that my ktimetracker file was zeroed on the same day this happened. But I had another crash the same day, and my other zeroed file was zeroed on other days, so I can't be sure that this bug zeroes files.

There is something wrong with the new patch.
A new incremental bulk build did not get very far before panicking:

This panic is still seen with current master,
but less often than before recent commits which hoped to address it.
Should I upload recent core dump?
Updated by dillon about 12 years ago
I believe there is a race in vm_page_protect() --> pmap_page_protect(). I
have not been able to find it. However, all the crashes came from the
same path from vm_fault in a situation where we don't actually have to
call vm_page_protect().
You can try this patch:fetch http://apollo.backplane.com/DFlyMisc/wire01.patchThis removes the unnecessary call for the code path in question. It
is NOT a fix, but if the crashes go away then I'll know for sure
that it's an issue w/vm_page_protect().-Matt
Updated by thomas.nikolajsen about 12 years ago
Did tests w/ wire01.patch applied, and it didn't panic.
Did 17 'make -j10 buildworld buildkernel' test runs.
Test was a bit different than prev. run:
used MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX on tmpfs this time, vs nfs or hammer in prev. tests
(for faster tests & less hammer fill-up).
Will do same tests on master (i.e. w/o patch) to see if I get panic on this setup.
Updated by marino about 12 years ago
I almost completed a multi-day bulk build, but it panicked with less than 400 packages to go.
This was a very recent stock kernel WITH the wire01.patch applied.
http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/~marino/core/core.page_not_busy.4.txt
I will upload the core later to ~marino/crash
Updated by thomas.nikolajsen about 12 years ago
Did tests on master (w/o patch), got panic, as expected.
Did 4 'make -j10 buildworld buildkernel' test runs,
had one panic during first run.
Test was same setup as prev. run:
used MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX on tmpfs this time (and /usr/src on NFS, as usual),
on 8 core system w/ 8GB running i386 (i.e. using ~3GB (4GB minus PCI mem. space)).
