I noticed this situation on a Soekris machine I have (geode processor), It
has happened twice, once in installworld ,once in buildworld. I am not
sure how to trigger it more easily, but the symptoms are quite
straightforward.
Both times this happened in objcopy. And objcopy was stuck in the
"vm_wait" wait-channel. The first time I was able to control-C it (after a
few Control-Ts that showed it was not progressing) and everything came
back, I was then able to re-run the installworld (that had been the source
of the objcopy) without incident. That I was able to Control-C it, and
re-run it without a disk-wait process, or blocking in the same spot is
telling to me.
The second time I had wandered away and by the time I got back I was no
longer able to interact with the machine. It still passed traffic, but any
attempt to open a new ssh connection was greeted with an opened TCP socket
and IMMEDIATE reset/termination. I was forced to reset it.
While this was happening, it was successfully routing 6 megabytes/second
through its interfaces.
I am going to try to run this again to see if I can get any more
information, it is apparently fairly easy for me to trip.
