FWIW, any testing at all would have caught this. It paniced on unmount in a kernel with INVARIANTS. The awkward thing about testing it is that it requires a server. We'd have caught it sooner if we hadn't had a major stall in merging FreeBSD head to CheriBSD. We're hoping to stop using it because it's slow, server support will eventually go away, etc. We don't really have an opinion about it staying or going. -- Brooks --IS0zKkzwUGydFO0o Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJhewzKAAoJEKzQXbSebgfARbEH/iI3XIthG+cIYUq6XtOd25r0 XvJQ6fjnbXZElLI/BDLTXe4gND04RCla/YtmJPPip0ykjTr7rsGzouLdLzXy2Gvz ojyUTH2ubq8bHniD9vefGpqWheYwBmewTedoN1vpleXIcGQyGsjouMB7M04ZEKsB FgHlKgCbo+zlUiKFUYqVImmh22zKHV7UzVkeZOg7BTvFY3WBQVYtDJArxwwgubJZ z9MasqxngVQ69Jk+4lIKmNESEr+0ixaOs2LhHFJqRrDxWZcRnf0ZZzYBLiYOvyZm Aoia3PZK0ZdUSJTbxygEIZT+lFxONS95A3omB+JyyLJT8g88lDKgoOTxitOdTts= =NXlm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --IS0zKkzwUGydFO0o--
