I've been trying to use a Soekris Net5501 with a ral PCI card for a wireless access point. I'm running the most recent snapshot but I'm still getting the weird hangs that people were reporting on misc@ back in 4.4.
Doing heavy traffic through the Soekris (e.g. ftp a large file) will consistently and predictably cause the system to hang; whether the traffic is through ral0 or not doesn't matter. If ral0 is up and in hostAP mode, a large ftp transfer or similar traffic load will hang the system. When the hang happens, even the console becomes unresponsive (and thus I can't give you ddb output.) I've tried everything I can to narrow down the problem, but I'm not getting anywhere. I would REALLY like to get this problem fixed; any help would be greatly appreciated. If the devs need something on my end (testing, equipment, beer money), I'll be happy to accommodate, just let me know. Below is a dmesg and what I've tried so far. *Using or not using wpa doesn't change anything *The power supply is not an issue; I've tried half a dozen different ones and the get the same hang. *I couldn't make the hang happen in BSS mode or when ral0 was down. *Making ral be part of a bridge doesn't change anything. *I couldn't get the console to give me ddb access after the hang, so I tried sending it a break before and then "c". I get that far, but when the system hangs ddb is unresponsive.
