As people following HEAD may have seen, around 1 month ago a fix to lockmgr(9) has been committed that should prevent a deadlock for that primitive (the fixup is composed by r200447,201703,201709-201710). As long as the approach choosen in HEAD is optimal, unluckilly it does introduce an ABI breakage. In order to allow a MFC, a similar approach, being a bit sub-optimal, but not breaking ABI, has been prepared for STABLE_8: http://www.freebsd.org/~attilio/lockmgr_fix8.diff
I'm seeking for testers here. Any report would be very much appreciated. Thanks, Attilio -- Peace can only be achieved by understanding - A.
