Description

Starting dhclient 3 times causes the system to hang:

Warning, objcache(mbuf pkt hdr + cluster): Exhausted!

To reproduce, set the following in /etc/rc.conf:

ifconfig_em0="DHCP"
ifconfig_em1="DHCP"
ifconfig_em2="DHCP"

You can temporarily work around this by increasing the number of mbuf clusters at system boot with:

kern.ipc.nmbclusters=32768

The default of 16384 clusters (or less) is not enough for the EM driver which I think can allocate as many as 2048 or even 4096 clusters for each EM device ring.

I'll assign this to Sephe for now and he and I will figure out a more permanent fix.
