limits in the code which is deep in the call stack, and owns several critical system resources, like vnode locks. Attempt to wait while the per-mount softupdate thread cleans up the backlog may deadlock, because the thread might need to lock the same vnode which is owned by the waiting thread. Instead of synchronously waiting for the worker, perform the worker' tickle and pause until the backlog is cleaned, at the safe point during return from kernel to usermode. A new ast request to call softdep_ast_cleanup() is created, the SU code now only checks the size of queue and schedules ast. There is no ast delivery for the kernel threads, so they are exempted from the mechanism, except NFS daemon threads. NFS server loop explicitely checks for the request, and informs the schedule_cleanup() that it is capable of handling the requests by the process P2_AST_SU flag. This is needed because nfsd may be the sole cause of the SU workqueue overflow. But, to not cause nsfd to spawn additional threads just because we slow down existing workers, only tickle su threads, without waiting for the backlog cleanup.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7) and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds. NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used.
