Out of curiosity, is anything regarding the exhaustion of mb_map being logged to /var/log/messages ? If not, chances are that this is not directly related to an mbuf exhaustion -- the panic, that is, because if mb_map hasn't even been exhausted, then you still potentially have space to allocate from (this is the way it presently works) and the panic is unlikely to be related to an mbuf pointer being NULL and mis-treated. -- Bosko Milekic <bmilekic@technokratis.com> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
