Crashing
« on: August 01, 2020, 05:15:17 am »

I found I was getting kernel panics and reboots when either Sensei was running or Intrusion Detection was enabled on my VMWare ESXi 7 OPNSense VM with vmx drivers for ethernet.

I know the Sensei one seems to be known, but not sure on the known IDS one with vmx on vmware 7.

IDS (IPS) uses Netmap same as Sensei so that should be the same issue.

vmxnet3 seems to be unstable on 12.1 for the time being. I heard there are patches on 12-STABLE now and we will issue a test kernel based on them shortly.

Hello, wondering if a patched kernel for vmxnet3 and netmap was any closer.  I just upgraded to 20.7.3 and can confirm that netmap still causes a kernel panic and reboot.

Also, in the meantime, any issue with using e1000 instead?

Yep.

# opnsense-update -kr 20.7.3-netmap
# opnsense-shell reboot

Hello, I have installed the update 20.7.3 today and as already written the error still exists.

Is there already a forecast for a patch? I'm not really keen on changing my VMs to Intel e1000. I have already tested it in a lab environment. All interfaces have to be reassigned despite the same MAC.
