Randall: Shooting again: Thread 1 is executing in "softclock_call_cc()" in the "new_cc = callout_cpu_switch(c, cc, new_cpu)" it has set "c->c_cpu = CPUBLOCK;" Thread 2 is now executing callout_reset(). As you can see in the implementation detail, it is reading "c_cpu" without CC_LOCK() locked and without checking if it was reading the c_cpu while it was equal to CPUBLOCK ! #define callout_reset(c, on_tick, fn, arg) \ callout_reset_on((c), (on_tick), (fn), (arg), (c)->c_cpu) This results in migrating the callout to CPUBLOCK, and subsequent calls will hang in callout_lock() like in hirens panic. --HPS REVISION DETAIL https://reviews.freebsd.org/D1711 To: rrs, gnn, rwatson, lstewart, jhb, kostikbel, sbruno, imp, adrian, hselasky Cc: julian, hiren, jhb, kostikbel, emaste, delphij, neel, erj, freebsd-net
