jhb 2004-08-04 20:31:19 UTC FreeBSD src repository Modified files: sys/i386/i386 pmap.c sys/kern subr_witness.c Log: Remove a potential deadlock on i386 SMP by changing the lazypmap ipi and spin-wait code to use the same spin mutex (smp_tlb_mtx) as the TLB ipi and spin-wait code snippets so that you can't get into the situation of one CPU doing a TLB shootdown to another CPU that is doing a lazy pmap shootdown each of which are waiting on each other. With this change, only one of the CPUs would do an IPI and spin-wait at a time. Revision Changes Path 1.493 +2 -8 src/sys/i386/i386/pmap.c 1.178 +0 -1 src/sys/kern/subr_witness.c
