#11273 closed defect (fixed)
dtrace + VBox kexts = kernel panic => Fixed in SVN

Description
Loading dtrace (or anything depending on it) causes an immediate kernel panic if the VBox kexts are loaded. It does NOT require any running guests, or even the VBox interface loaded.

Post includes a backtrace of the crash. I can trivially reproduce the panic. I can do additional testing and/or supply additional info, if needed.

Thanks for the report! This will be fixed in the next maintenance release.

Right, the fix was done after 4.2.6 was released. Could you install this test build to confirm that the bug is fixed? Thank you!

See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
I've now tested on Mac OS X 10.7 and 10.8 and the panic does not occur. The kernel panic only occurs on 10.6 systems.
