Solved pefs crashes FreeBSD 9.3

[patpro]

Hello,

I'm running FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE amd64, fully updated, full ZFS. I've installed sysutils/pefs-kmod port to create an encrypted directory. I've made a quick test that ended with a complete crash of the whole system.

This went OK:

pkg install pefs-kmod
mkdir testprive
pefs addchain -f -Z testprive
mkdir testprive_montage
pefs mount testprive testprive_montage
pefs addkey -c testprive_montage

This last command crashed the system:

cp /tmp/sudoku testprive_montage

No display on this machine, so I have no trace of the crash... Any idea is welcome.

I'm wondering if the kernel module nature if PEFS is an issue. The log linked at the bottom shows the package as being built on 9.1-RELEASE-p19 while you are on 9.3-RELEASE. Can you try deleting the package and compiling it locally?

Thank you junovitch, I've installed the port instead of the package and it did the trick.
