:How about DragonFly PF & SMP?
Most of our kernel is still under the BGL, and its going to stay that
way at least until after the 1:1 threading work is finished, and
probably a good chunk of the syslink work too.
There has been progress around the edges. e.g. the file descriptor
and file pointer subsystems are MP safe now, NETIF devices are
protected by their own serializer, the route table is per-cpu, and
a few other things.
