I assume your're using the BSD xfs.

I see what you are trying to say, but since all (t)sleepings are done
by each separate process and the sleepings are independent from each other.
(see xfs_message.c:xfs_message_rpc()).

When I tried it on my fbsd2.2.x host I hade to press C-c twice for some odd
reson I don't have time to figure out now. But it worked independely in
what order I killed them.

Would help if you could give us a testcase that (didn't) worked.

We do ignore SIGIO during the rpc, but that is only because emacs
tab-completion breaks if we don't.

Love
