Hello,
recently i have been testing two servers via crosslink. Both have
Freebsd installed >
twin1$ uname -a
FreeBSD twin1 8.0-BETA2 FreeBSD 8.0-BETA2 #0: Sun Aug 16
22:57:29 CEST 2009
viktor at twin1:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GEN_NO_DBG amd64
twin2$ uname -a
FreeBSD kitt.twin2 8.0-BETA2 FreeBSD 8.0-BETA2 #0: Wed Jul 22 15:05:19
CEST 2009 viktor at kitt.twin2:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GEN_NO_DBG amd64
GEN_NO_DBG is GENERIC kernel without debugging options
Twin2 is virtual machine on the same hardware as twin1, vmware used.
I have this set installed on both machines >

Both machines are connected via crosslink >

I have set up twin2 as a server for netio >
kitt.twin2# netio -s -p 1122
And then tested from twin1 tcp test >
twin1# netio -p 1122 -t 10.10.10.20
It was allright, i've got some results.
But when I tried UDP, it failed.
The server is still the same >
kitt.twin2# netio -s -p 1122
Client
twin1# netio -p 1122 -u 10.10.10.20
After around 1 minute, twin1 server stopped responding on public
interface, i've been disconnected. Via remote console i could access
the machine, it was acting normally. I could ping both interfaces. I
could even ping from other side of crosslink, from twin2 the privat
interface, but no reply on public interface.
The interface was shown UP in ifconfig, no messages in /var/log/messages.
Then i executed ifconfig igb1 down && ifconfig igb1 up and it worked
again.
I have then executed netio udp test again with 2k udp packets
The server is still the same >
kitt.twin2# netio -s -p 1122
twin1# netio -p 1122 -u -b 2k 10.10.10.20
The same problem on twin1, but now it has crashed the computer >
via remote console i could see this >
twin1# GET BUF: dmamap load failure - 12
GET BUF: dmamap load failure - 12
GET BUF: dmamap load failure - 12
GET BUF: dmamap load failure - 12
GET BUF: dmamap load failure - 12
GET BUF: dmamap load failure - 12
GET BUF: dmamap load failure - 12
GET BUF: dmamap load failure - 12
GET BUF: dmamap load failure - 12
GET BUF: dmamap load failure - 12
then it executed core dump and restarted.
I am lost, thanks for any advise.
