thank you very much. i solved that problem other way, finally ending in
NFS root.
but i still need raw block device as swap device, which will (rarely) be
in active use.
What do you recommend - iscsi or geom_gate.
the latter is 100 times more simple, and i like simple solutions.
but geom_gate use userland process for I/O. Does it make a risk of
deadlock?
is iscsi deadlock free too? i mean iscsi in kernel needs to allocate
memory to perform swapout, but it have to wait for free memory, but memory
will not be freed until swapout is done.
