Summary

sched_throw() expects the caller to hold a spinlock section; see the
td_md initialization in cpu_fork(). This bug can cause a deadlock when
APs are started: statclock() fires before the thread lock acquired in
sched_throw() is released, and recurses on the thread lock.

Are interrupts enabled here at all? We really depend on them not being enabled on APs until after the first context switch.

Hmm, it was added here: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/335005

We boot in QEMU without the intr_disable(), though. I added code to read and print sstatus here, and SIE is disabled. So it seems safe to remove the intr_disable().

markj marked an inline comment as done.
