This implementation detail is specific to NFS, no other FS do anything like that. So I'm questioning whether calling kthread_create(9) inside a kqueue(2) handler, which is called from kevent(2) and could be called from poll(2) is the wanted behavior. > This is about behaviour.

NFS tries to be clever for kqueue(2)-only, I'm questioning the added value of that cleverness. > Should NFS not try to act the same? That's exactly what my diff is doing: bring it in sync with other FS.
