Hi,
Happily I think the Netra X1 is stable again running the latest binary
snapshot of the kernel; if one of the earlier bug reporters would like
to try that.
For me, a cvs checkout or cvs diff, would crash OpenBSD 5.7 or 5.8
within seconds. Sometimes just an SSH login would trigger it. Or
just IPv4 forwarding with no users logged in. I was never able to
reproduce the crash anyhow with the network cable unplugged.
I wish I knew what fixed it, so that I could backport the fix to
5.8-stable. If someone could point me to an archive of older binary
snapshots of the kernel between 5.8-release and now, I could try to
bisect that way. (Or if that doesn't exist yet, why not? I'd happily
set up and host such an archive.)

I've been trying to confirm that, but now think it was unlikely to be
the cause. The other likely candidate would be net/route or ARP
broadcast changes on 2014-09-03, having been reworked from 5.8->current.
Regards,
I updated yesterday to:
OpenBSD 5.8-current (GENERIC) #798: Tue Nov 17 14:25:51 MST 2015
dera...@sparc64.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/sparc64/compile/GENERIC
but was still hitting the panic - I'm currently 18 Nov snapshot will see
if that resolves the issue for me - thanks for the heads up.
