Bug #3392

Fails to shutdown and boot properly
0%
Description
Tested with HEAD as of Tue Jan 20, 2026 (868971441c9e703282089412240c0361dd9687fd)
Since commit 41fb76421dce (vkernel: Restore MAP_VPAGETABLE), shutdown hangs, reporting:
"malloc_uninit: 120 bytes of 'HAMMER2-msg' still allocated on cpu 8".
It also takes unusually long between running "halt -p" and the start of the shutdown procedure.
The next boot then hangs within "Mounting tmpfs at /var/run/shm".
Chrome also once seemed to fail starting (or it took unusual long for me to think it failed).
One other person has also reported some strange timeouts happening with commit "41fb76421dce" (reported on IRC).
Screenshots attached, starting the "hang" on shutdown and boot.

I tracked the problem down to commit 8ec33efba7563efab10f0d90b5684480d94daf0a
(vkernel: Restore MAP_VPAGETABLE support with COW/VPTE fix (2))
- chrome freezes (firefox works)
- shutdown blocks
- after a hard-reset, it hangs in "Mounting tmpfs at /var/run/shm"

Ok, it's not related to i915 at all or chrome. I get timeouts even without starting X11.
Everything works normally again when I revert commit "8ec33efba7563efab10f0d90b5684480d94daf0a" (vkernel: Restore MAP_VPAGETABLE support with COW/VPTE fix (2)), so something in this commit must break my system.
