In Vinum, I sometimes need to lock a vnode in one process and unlock it in another. Since 3.0, I've been getting panics when I do this: panicstr: lockmgr: pid 429, not exclusive lock holder 428 unlocking Can I assume that the other parameters (flag, p) to VOP_UNLOCK will enable me to do this anyway? Also, since I don't perform the lock directly (it happens as a side-effect of opening the vnode), is there a kosher way to find out what process locked the vnode?
