Hi,

I just upgraded my PWS to NetBSD 1.5.1 and the kernel paniced almost
right away.  Here's what happened.  I transferred a large (>500M byte)
file from a W2K system to the PWS using Samba.  The transfer was
proceeding at a nice pace of about 5 megabytes/second until about
90 meg had finished transferring.  Then, the transfer rate dropped
to a crawl.  This continued for a minute or so and then NetBSD 1.5.1
paniced.  Once again, I have reproduced the information from the panic
below:

/netbsd: panic: lockmgr: no context
/netbsd: syncing disks...
/netbsd: fatal kernel trap:
/netbsd:
/netbsd:     trap entry = 0x2 (memory management fault)
/netbsd:     a0         = 0x7f7f7c8085fb0c6c
/netbsd:     a1         = 0x1
/netbsd:     a2         = 0x0
/netbsd:     pc         = 0xfffffc00003bf100
/netbsd:     ra         = 0xfffffc00003bf0c4
/netbsd:     curproc    = 0x0
/netbsd:
/netbsd: panic: trap

Here's the kadb trace:

Oh, and one person has asked me about the 533MHz clock speed.  The
machine was originally a PWS 433a.  I bought a 533MHz CPU for it
and changed the CPU clock via the dip switches to the frequency
the CPU is rated for (533MHz).  Note that it ran for many months
under NetBSD 1.4.2 without problems with the CPU running at this
speed.

If there's any other information I can provide, please let me
know.

By the way, I am able to reproduce the network performance problem
at will.  All I need to do is try to copy a large file from my
W2K box to NetBSD.  I just tried it with FTP and after about 100
megabytes, it slowed to a crawl.  At least it didn't panic the
machine this time.  Any thoughts on what could be causing this?
