Hello All!

I've finally got around to upgrade to the latest version 19.1.3, on my homelab servers, and on a AMD Phenom i am getting an endless panic/reboot cycle.

The OPNsense runs on a Linux/KVM system, and the interaction is trowing an KVM: Guest triggered AMD Erratum 383.
I've done all i knew, on the kvm side (cpu passsthrough) and nothing. Sometimes it boots. Sometimes it reboots endlessy.

What am i missing? To the best of my knowlege this was not happening on 19.1.

EDIT: Tested upgrading it to the Dev version and the issue is not felt here. The only thing i can think of is that freebsd is having a tantrum.
In 19.1 the version is FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p9-HBSD, on 19.7 the version is FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p8-HBSD.
Form p9 to p8. Why the downgrade?

EDIT2: Nope... just crashed again with the same error  KVM: Guest triggered AMD Erratum 383. It appears that is felt also on 19.7.

Can you plesae help me?

Thanks!



It appears that that did the trick, both on dev and production ranges.

Thanks very much for your help!
