The branch stable/13 has been updated by markj: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/src/commit/?id=dd54e44a279fab567374d2eec9dd9cd6d04b7a43 commit dd54e44a279fab567374d2eec9dd9cd6d04b7a43 Author: Konstantin Belousov <kib@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2022-02-16 15:30:17 +0000 Commit: Mark Johnston <markj@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2022-03-14 14:10:23 +0000 buf_alloc(): Stop using LK_NOWAIT, use LK_NOWITNESS Despite the buffer taken from cache or free list, it still can be locked, due to 'lockless lookup' in getblkx() potentially operating on the freed buffers. The lock is transient, but prevents the use of LK_NOWAIT there for the goal of neutralizing WITNESS. Just use LK_NOWITNESS.
