>Description:
A console bell on my NetBSD/acorn32 A7000 triggers KASSERT at

    http://nxr.netbsd.org/source/xref/src/sys/kern/kern_synch.c#682

as the tty_lock is held in ttwrite

    http://nxr.netbsd.org/source/xref/src/sys/kern/tty.c#2125

when calling ttstart at line 2176. The stack trace is

    ttwrite -> wsdisplayopen -> wsemul_vt100_output -> wsdisplay_emulbell -> wsdiaply_internal_ioctl -> wsmouse_add_mux -> wskbd_cnbell -> pckbd_ioctl -> audiobell -> audioclose -> audio_close -> audiodrain -> audio_waitio -> vw_wait_sig -> sleepq_block -> mi_switch




>How-To-Repeat:
Make an acorn32 machine beep.
>Fix:
tweak tty_locking
