Hello hackers,
I am constantly getting the following message when I run my KLD:

panic: lockmgr: locking against myself
Debugger("panic")
Stopped at=09=09Debugger+0x54:=09=09xchgl=09=09%ebx,in_Debugger.0
db>

What could possibly cause this?
It seem to say that I'm locking an already locked variable.

Thank you,
Jerry
