This isn't in the tree yet, but will begin to migrate in in a month or so, and I am asserting to myself that it will be locked when it arrives :-). - Assign a variety of VFS locking-related tasks to Jeff Roberson. He volunteered to work on these at BSDCon, so as a personal favor to him, I'm making sure he can't forget. While I'm at it, add an entity for him. The tasks he described include: - Cleaning up locking within the vnode, including documenting the various implicit and explicit locks there. - Moving to explicit counting of soft references. - Move towards using sx locks instead of lockmgr once this cleanup is done. - Moving towards being able to perform VOP_GETATTR() shared, to reduce lock contention. - Generally review vnode and VFS locking for SMP-safety.
