Will it help if I repeat my original questions: Is that bad if a geom's access method drops and re-acquires g_topology_lock while doing some internal stuff? Is that allowed at all? To clarify, if that's needed, by "geom's access method" I meant the 'access' member with g_access_t type in struct g_geom. -- Andriy Gapon _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-geom To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
