https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D224479 --- Comment #13 from Mark Millard <markmi@dsl-only.net> --- (In reply to Wolfram Schneider from comment #12) Does the problem happen for: shutdown -r now instead of reboot? I ask because the man page for reboot says that reboot does not cleanly shut down all processes, recommending the use of shutdown instead: Normally, the shutdown(8) utility is used when the system needs to be halted or restarted, giving users advance warning of their impending d= oom and cleanly terminating specific programs. So, reboot is documented to be more likely to have race conditions. Side note: Going the other direction, given what is known about file-system swapspaces (i.e., vnode-backed), I'm not sure why they are allowed by default instead of needing support to be explicitly enabled. (The enabling indicating that one is supposed to understand the issues involved in their use.) --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
