That does help. It tells us that the lock being held is a vnode interlock that was last acquired in vinactive(). I don't see how though, unless the lock was recursively acquired elsewhere. You could try adding a different WITNESS check (using WITNESS_WARN) to see which NFS proc returns with a lock held so you can catch this when it first occurs rather than much later after the fact. Do you have the start of the log messages? -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
