Looking at it a little more closely:

428 v = m->mtx_lock;
429 if (v != MTX_UNOWNED) {
430 owner = (struct thread *)(v & ~MTX_FLAGMASK);
431 if (TD_IS_RUNNING(owner)) {
432 if (LOCK_LOG_TEST(&m->lock_object, 0))
433 CTR3(KTR_LOCK,
434 "%s: spinning on %p held by
%p",
435 __func__, m, owner);
(kgdb)
I'm told that MTX_CONTESTED was set on the unlocked mtx and that MTX_CONTENDED
is spuriously left behind, and to ask how lock prefix is handled in bhyve. Any
of that make sense to anyone?
The mutex has both MTX_CONTESTED and MTX_UNOWNED set on it? That is a
special sentinel value that is set on a mutex when it is destroyed
(see MTX_DESTROYED in sys/mutex.h). If that is the case it looks like
you've stumbled upon some kind of use-after-free in tmpfs. I doubt
that bhyve is responsible (other than perhaps changing the timing
around making the panic more likely to happen).
Given the first thing seen was:
Freed UMA keg (TMPFS node) was not empty (16 items). Lost 1 pages of memory.
this sounds reasonable to me.
What can I do to help find and elliminate the source of the error?
The most worrying fact there is that the mutex which is creating trouble
cannot be anything other but allnode_lock, from the backtrace. For this
mutex to be destroyed, the unmount of the corresponding mount point must
run to completion.
In particular, it must get past the vflush(9) call in tmpfs_unmount().
This call reclaims all vnodes belonging to the unmounted mount point.
New vnodes cannot be instantiated meantime, since insmntque(9) is
blocked by the MNTK_UNMOUNT flag.
That said, the backtrace indicates that we have live vnode, which is
reclaimed, and also we have the mutex which is in the destroyed (?)
state. My basic claim is that the two events cannot co-exist, at least,
this code path was heavily exercised and most issues were fixed during
several years.
I cannot exclude the possibility of tmpfs/VFS screwing things up,
but given the above reasoning, and the fact that this is the first
appearance of the MTX_DESTROED problem for the tmpfs unmounting code,
which was not changed for long time, I would at least ask some things
about bhyve. I.e., I would rather first look at the locked prefix
emulation then at the tmpfs.
What about running the code with INVARIANTS + DEBUG_VFS_LOCKS and see if
anything shakes out?
