New Revision: 339588
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/339588

Log:
  Resolve deadlock between epoch(9) and various network interface
  SX-locks, during if_purgeaddrs(), by not allowing to hold the epoch
  read lock over typical network IOCTL code paths. This is a regression
  issue after r334305.
