Hi,

I'm seeing complete freezes on a 5.3-STABLE SMP (with HTT) kernel from
Fri Nov 12.  The machine is acting as a newsserver, thus it has heavy
network and disk load.

With the help of MP_WATCHDOG I was able to get a backtrace:

Watchdog timer: 2
Watchdog timer: 1
Watchdog timer: 0
Watchdog firing!
NMI ... going to debugger

The kgdb debug log can be found at
<http://people.freebsd.org/~le/debug.log>.  The coredump and the
kernel is still available if I should send more info.

Thanks,
