FreeBSD cannot allow a process to use more than 2 GB virtual address because the other 2 GB (On a 32-bit machine, the total virtual address space usable to a process is 4 GB) virtual address must be reversed for the kernel. May I do something to allow the process running on FreeBSD? >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
