5.3-RELEASE has a lot of problems with >4GB due to busdma issues. Those should no longer be an issue in RELENG_5, including 5.4-PRE.

They appear to be.

I don't understand what you mean here.


As I said above (and trimmed for convenience), this problem occurs on
5.4-PRERELEASE as of yesterday morning.  The dmesg shows that too.


And you're certain that it's due to the same busdma issues that I was describing? I must have missed the evidence that you use to support this.


As I described, it doesn't appear to be the drivers.

I don't see how you proved or disproved this.


Shall I resend the original message?  It seems independent of any
particular driver.  That's not proof, of course, but I didn't claim it
was.

Again, I must have missed the part where you investigated the drivers that apply to your particular system. I highly doubt that they apply to every 8GB Opteron system available on the market.
