Check out bug #206744, see if that might apply to your situation. You using e1000 NIC driver? Was the previous kernel stable for you? I have checked bug #206744 and I don't think it applies to me. I can't see any link to samba (I am not running it!!), it seemed like a disk problem, and the log before freezing pointed to the aacraid module. I tried all the kernels available for Fedora Core 5 and all of them had problems. I have now installed Scientific Linux 4.3 (based on Redhat Enterprise 4) and everything works great. My kernel version is 2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp and it uses the module aacraid 1.1-5[2412] (newer version than the Fedora Core 5 module). No problems anymore. The kernels in FC6-test seem to still use older aacraid versions, so I will have to stay like this for a while. There is something really buggy (at least for my Adaptec 2610SA RAID card) in the aacraid modules before version 1.1-5[2412]. I am also experiencing these problems using aacraid after upgrade to FC5. In FC4 all worked OK. Created attachment 138601 [details]
2.6.17-1.2187 aacraid Oops
Seeing this on 2.6.17-1.2187_FC5 on x86_64 dual AMD Opteron 254's.
The raid card is an adaptec ASR-2130S. Had it on 2.6.17-1.2157_FC5 also.
Has anyone flashed to the 9194b firmware for this card? I saw one guy that
claimed he had flashed and running under FC6T3 it was still doing the same
thing.
My uptimes average 2 days, but I think its random luck :p and I had the XFS
broken driver trashing parts of my FS every time it crashed. I'm more than
willing to assist any developer that needs access to this hardware if it'll
help get this bug fixed.
A new kernel update has been released (Version: 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5) based upon a new upstream kernel release. Please retest against this new kernel, as a large number of patches go into each upstream release, possibly including changes that may address this problem. This bug has been placed in NEEDINFO state. Due to the large volume of inactive bugs in bugzilla, if this bug is still in this state in two weeks time, it will be closed. Should this bug still be relevant after this period, the reporter can reopen the bug at any time. Any other users on the Cc: list of this bug can request that the bug be reopened by adding a comment to the bug. In the last few updates, some users upgrading from FC4->FC5 have reported that installing a kernel update has left their systems unbootable. If you have been affected by this problem please check you only have one version of device-mapper & lvm2 installed. See bug 207474 for further details. If this bug is a problem preventing you from installing the release this version is filed against, please see bug 169613. If this bug has been fixed, but you are now experiencing a different problem, please file a separate bug for the new problem. Thank you. The 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5 kernel still hangs on heavy I/O. I cannot see any panic. Only black screen. So I am not sure it is related to aacraid driver. I do not see any panic when I am running the X server. If I boot the system in init 3 and log in from there, I can see the error messages from the kernel just before the system freezes. Nothing is written to any log file (as the system completely freezes). In my original message, you can see what I was able to hand copy by reading from the console. Has anyone proved the FC6 aacraid driver? The version number is older in FC6 (1.1-5[2409]-mh2) than the one that I have in my SL4.3 based on RHLE4 (1.1-5[2412]). I tried to compile the aacraid module version 1.1-5[2412] from SL4.3 (based on RHLE4) with the FC5 2.6.18-1.2200 SMP kernel, but there were multiple errors in the compilation. The RHLE4 module seems to be pretty different from the FC5/6 one. I have now installed FC6 and the aacraid module version 1.1-5[2409]-mh2 seems to be working perfectly. My system has now been up running FC6 kernel 2.6.18-1.2849.fc6PAE for 10 days with heavy CPU/RAM/disk load. |
