Yes; I forgot to write the clause about it only being equivalent to a panic if certain options (mainly INVARIANTS) are configured. > do see that falloc does lock the file descriptor table too, though --- > I wonder how it ever worked. INVARIANTS causes a check of an assertion that non-recursive locks like fd_mtx aren't actually misused recursively. The check causes more panics than the misuse since the misuse is rarely fatal. I may be missing something since I rarely use INVARIANTS and haven't checked that it causes the panic deterministically.
