Crash when switching interface off and on again in cohesion with multicast
0%
Description
Hello,
There are still crashes when switching off and on (vlan)interfaces. One of those crashes seems to be triggered by PIMD/Multicast. So I opened a FeeBSD Bug. This one is FreeBSD bug 248243.
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=248243
Note that in general the number of crashes related to switching off and on (vlan)interfaces, is much better now than it was in the past months. So some one has allready fixed one or more issues :)
For info, monitoring and follow up.
Louis
Copied from FreeBSD
I try to get PIMD running on latest pfSense release. One of the two problems I am facing is that FreeBsd as crashing as soon as I switch off and on again one of the interfaces, especially the interface being used as PIMD register_vif.
Hereby the relevant lines from "the core dump"

IMHO the problem is like this:
- pim is asking som info from underlying core
- that is translated into a trap
- the trap is not handled correctly and/or parameters are not correct
- the trap is handeld by thread 12 "swi1: netisr 2"
- which lead to a fatal crash

I did retest interface stability. The situation is much better now. I can not reproduce crashes any more.

Awesome! Thanks for reporting

This happened after renaming the description of a VLAN on an LACP LAGG consisting of ix0 and ix1 on a Netgate 7100 running 22.05. The PIMD package is installed and configured with the interfaces on the referenced lagg.

Hello,
Just for info:
Related to PIMD
- I am still a happy PIMD user however the very old >>released version<< of PIMD does not work under FreeBSD !!
- So to make it work I did / you have to compile the actual PIMD sources using FreeBSD 12 (https://github.com/troglobit/pimd)
- And combine that with the previously available NetGate PIMD gui package.
- I multiple times tried to convince the PIMD maintainer to formally release the actual PIMD sources, which in opposite to the old version do work without any problem (as far as I can see).
Related to pfSense interface issues
- at the time I wrote the issue, IMHO lots of issues, at this moment not as far as I know / not in my setup (running2.7.0 CE)
I can again try to persuade Joachim (the pimd maintainer) to formally release the code, he will not formally do that because he has no time for further support. But again the actual pimd code works without issues and at least in my setup there are no pfSense issues in this area

I changed my pfSense disk (SSD) for which reason I had to reinstall pfSense. After installing CE 2.7.0 version Fri Aug 12 00:02:48 UTC 2022 and copying and installing my pimd builds:
- pkg install pimd-3.0.b1.txz
- pkg install pfSense-pkg-pimd-3.0.1.txz
- cp pimd.conf /var/etc/pimd/pimd.conf
I noticed that under services PIMD was available as expected, but not properly working. The config is shown the status not and pimd is not starting via the GUI. I do not know why, but it is of course not supported at this moment.
However I can still start PIMD from the command line (pimd) and see the actual status using the pimctl command. After starting PIMD, it still works as expected.

I probably made a mistake. Every thing is still working including the GUI. Note that there seems to be two versions of the pimd.conf
one in /var/etc/pimd/pimd.conf and one in /usr/local/etc/pimd.conf (I do not know why)
I did copy my initial config to both locations
