FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE-p13 fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode

[Rainer Duffner]

After upgrading to 11.2-RELEASE-p2, the server constantly reboots instead of hanging at the crash-dump.


Still, I don’t get a crash dump in /var/crash

The server is zfs-only, all the drives hang on said SemiMicro smartpqi controller.


I actually have two of these and both randomly reboot every couple of hours. Or more like every hour.
