A Pi2B v1.1 (armv7) has paniced while running a -j3 buildworld. I've put details at http://www.zefox.net/~fbsd/rpi2/panic_on_swap_exhaustion/ This particular machine has been patched for the "panic on shutdown" problem, and that patch seemed to work: shutdown panics were reproducible and the patch made them go away completely. The panic reported in this message has never been seen before; whether it touches on the same issue or is completely unrelated I've no idea. There are no behaviors suggesting a faulty hard disk but some of the console messages might suggest otherwise. The disk is far from new and has been well-used. At the time top stopped updating swap usage was modest (69 MB). Thanks for reading, bob prohaska
