deadlock on flt_noram5
Hi
I experience kernel hangs, which seems to be related to memory getting scarce.
getty on console is unresponsive, but I least I can drop into ddb.
db> ps
PID LID S CPU FLAGS STRUCT LWP * NAME WAIT
27030 1 3 0 4 cbc6fa80 cron flt_noram5
24850 1 3 0 4 cbc8d840 sh flt_noram5
24643 1 3 0 4 cbc6f300 ld flt_noram5

516 1 3 0 4 cb0470c0 cron flt_noram5
(...)
229 1 3 0 4 cac4f580 perfused flt_noram5
Reading the sources, it seems that we sleep on flt_noram5 when we are out of
memory, but that nothing in the kernel is there to awake us from flt_noram5,
both on -current and netbsd-5
Is that a known problem?
