We're experiencing a deadlock on certains systems when our software is installed, which is causing side effects in our process (and likely others) such as blocked queues and increased memory usage. According to the spindump, revisiond appears to be holding an exclusive lock within the kernel. Can you file a bug on this and upload the full spindump there? That's the easiest way to transfer large data files and I may eventually want a sysdiagnose. Having said that... Our agent uses Endpoint Security Framework to monitor events, and provide anti-tamper functionality for installed components and processes. While several EndpointSecurity calls appear in the spindump stack traces, we don't have any evidence that any calls from revisiond were blocked. ...this is almost CERTAINLY caused by your ES client. What we'd really like to to understand what that lock is (appears to be decompressing an object on an APFS volume), what revisiond and APFS are doing with it, and what might cause it to deadlock. Y
