I was merely pointing out connections to an annoying bug which is open since years and 272319 gave the impression that it was finally fixed upstream.
Kind reminder: this goes way back to 2019 and is happening almost daily for me.

If you get fatal trap 12 during PPPoE reconnects, you are most likely another victim of a kernel bug which was fixed upstream but has not been implemented in OPNsense so far. Take a look at one of these threads.

This is another reminder that the old issue is still not resolved yet.

Will there be widgets for speedtest and NTP be added?
They have been there in the old version of the dashboard.

+1 for the NTP status widget.

Also, the old bar graph widget for CPU/memory/disk/swap/state table size was way more intuitive at one glance and more compact than the new single gauges.

Spamhaus DROP and eDROP to become a single list, effective April 10th, 2024.
The docs should be updated accordingly.

It seems this bug was finally fixed upstream for the v14 kernel. Any chance that this will be included in OPNsense 24.1?

Almost two months later ... any findings on this issue or on the crash logs I've sent @franco?

The past few days had daily crashes and reboots BTW.

Today I had another crash with the same error.  >:(

@franco: any insights on the debug logs yet?

This morning it crashed again (was still on 23.7.7_3) with this well known error:

Code Select Expand

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
cpuid = 1; apic id = 02
fault virtual address = 0x10
fault code = supervisor read data, page not present

I've already submitted the full crash log.

And we have a winner.  ;)
After 6 days it finally crashed again.

@franco: I sent a PM regarding the dump files.

Just to also give a quick update: I had no crash on reconnect for the last three days and I don't want to provoke one so as not to change the conditions leading to the crash.
As said, sometimes the crashes happen for several days in a row and sometimes nothing happens for a week.  :o

Installed and waiting for the next crash. Naturally, today's reconnect did not crash.  ???

@Patrick: your explanation seems to be right on the spot.
BTW: like @craig, I use PPPoE with IPv4 and an additional IPv6 /56 prefix.
The FreeBSD bug tracker says that kernels 12.0 - 13.2 (the current OPNsense kernel version) are affected and the main cause is the MPD5 daemon.
There was a lengthy discussion about the same problem in the past, unfortunately it stopped without any final solution besides @schnipp preventing the crash with a modified script of his own.

@Monviech: You are right. I was merely quoting @franco's statement.  ::)
