>Description:
Under load my Sun Blade 2500 will sooner or later deadlock.
I tracked this down to one specific commit - net/pktqueue.c -r1.7. A -current kernel with just this reversed is stable.
I have not seen any deadlocks on non-SMP hardware or on slower machines, like my Ultra 60.
>How-To-Repeat:
build.sh -j4 distribution with sources over nfs. Usually deadlocks within an hour, may take significantly longer.
>Fix:
downgrade net/pktqueue.c to -r1.6
