CRASH(8) FreeBSD System Manager's Manual CRASH(8)
NAME
crash -- FreeBSD system failures
DESCRIPTION
This section explains a bit about system crashes and (very briefly) how
to analyze crash dumps.
When the system crashes voluntarily it prints a message of the form
panic: why i gave up the ghost
on the console, and if dumps have been enabled (see dumpon(8)), takes a
dump on a mass storage peripheral, and then invokes an automatic reboot
procedure as described in reboot(8). Unless some unexpected inconsis-
tency is encountered in the state of the file systems due to hardware or
software failure, the system will then resume multi-user operations.
The system has a large number of internal consistency checks; if one of
these fails, then it will panic with a very short message indicating
which one failed. In many instances, this will be the name of the rou-
tine which detected the error, or a two-word description of the inconsis-
tency. A full understanding of most panic messages requires perusal of
the source code for the system.
The most common cause of system failures is hardware failure, which can
reflect itself in different ways. Here are the messages which are most
likely, with some hints as to causes. Left unstated in all cases is the
possibility that hardware or software error produced the message in some
unexpected way.
cannot mount root
This panic message results from a failure to mount the root
filesystem during the bootstrap process. Either the root
filesystem has been corrupted, or the system is attempting to use
the wrong device as root filesystem. Usually, an alternate copy
of the system binary or an alternate root filesystem can be used
to bring up the system to investigate. Most often this is done
by the use of the boot floppy you used to install the system, and
then using the "fixit" floppy.
init: not found
This is not a panic message, as reboots are likely to be futile.
Late in the bootstrap procedure, the system was unable to locate
and execute the initialization process, init(8). The root
filesystem is incorrect or has been corrupted, or the mode or
type of /sbin/init forbids execution or is totally missing.
ffs_realloccg: bad optim
ffs_valloc: dup alloc
ffs_alloccgblk: cyl groups corrupted
ffs_alloccg: map corrupted
blkfree: freeing free block
blkfree: freeing free frag
ifree: freeing free inode
These panic messages are among those that may be produced when
filesystem inconsistencies are detected. The problem generally
results from a failure to repair damaged filesystems after a
crash, hardware failures, or other condition that should not nor-
mally occur. A filesystem check will normally correct the prob-
lem.
timeout table full
This really shouldn't be a panic, but until the data structure
involved is made to be extensible, running out of entries causes
a crash. If this happens, make the timeout table bigger.
init died (signal #, exit #)
The system initialization process has exited with the specified
signal number and exit code. This is bad news, as no new users
will then be able to log in. Rebooting is the only fix, so the
system just does it right away.
That completes the list of panic types you are likely to see.
If the system has been configured to take crash dumps (see dumpon(8)),
then when it crashes it will write (or at least attempt to write) an
image of memory into the back end of the dump device, usually the same as
the primary swap area. After the system is rebooted, the program
savecore(8) runs and preserves a copy of this core image and the current
system in a specified directory for later perusal. See savecore(8) for
details.
To analyze a dump you should begin by running gdb(1) with the -k flag on
the system load image and core dump. If the core image is the result of
a panic, the panic message is printed. For more details consult the
chapter on kernel debugging in the FreeBSD Developers' Handbook
(http://www.FreeBSD.org/).
