I've attached an updated version of the patch for 'vnode_pager.c'. On my test system it resolved the issue. Please let us know whether it works for you as well.
Sorry for the late response: I was ill and have no access to the test machine. I applied the patch to the clean 4.10. The result is the same: the process could not be killed, the file system access is very limited and the system became unresponsible.
Sorry, I applied the patch, but forget to rebuild kernel :).
It seems that patch resolves the problem - the program exits and the system is working. I run it several times. I would also run buildworld on this system to ensure that the program did not affect VM.
make -j 32 buildworld ran without problems.
Good to hear that it works for you, too. So, one long-standing bug less.
However, the real challenge could turn out to be finding a committer for RELENG_4, now that everybody is working on RELENG_5 and above. I have a number of PRs in GNATS already that are slowly rotting away since apparently nobody is willing to deal with them, even though they all have patches attached. So I stopped submitting PRs for now. Wasted time, unfortunately.
