Hi Andriy,

This weekend I built up a system using the 10.0 beta 2 dvd, then
updated /usr/src from head.

I grabbed a fresh copy of your patch this afternoon.

I applied your patch with no problems.  I was unable to build a new
kernel though, you have one reference to m->busy, where m is a
vm_page_t (if I remember correctly).  I dug around a bit and decided
that you meant m->busy_lock, which let me build a usable kernel.

It looks like INVARIANTS and INVARIANT_SUPPORT are included in the
GENERIC conf file.

I ran through my test routine with the original system and was able to
reproduce the problem.

After building and installing a kernel with your patch I was still
able to trigger the problem.  If anything it was worse (sample size =
1, I know...).

I did not see any interesting output in /var/log/messages or to the
console or anywhere else obvious.

I'm not sure what to do next.  It's likely that my m->busy to
m->busy_lock change was not The Right Thing to Do and might have
invalidated what the patch was trying to do.

In any case, I now have a system running HEAD and should be able to
test things more easily.

Thanks for the help,

g.
