    I configured a vnode-backed md and enabled swapping on it. A few
    hours later after moderate swap use the console showed:

    swap_pager: indefinite wait buffer: bufobj: 0, blkno: 889347, size: 8192
    [...repeated...]

    The backing store was a sparse file, but there was ample space:

    # ls -l /data2/swapfile
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 17179869184 Sep 11 16:50 /data2/swapfile
    # df /data2

    # swapinfo
