I've got a problem that my KLD is "leaking" wired memory. It's not actually growing in size, vmstat -m shows a fairly constant allocation, and certainly "high" isn't increasing. It's just that as I use it more, and more memory gets wired down, and the system becomes unusable. I've tried both using my own MALLOC_DEFINE memory type and a system type (M_TEMP) with no difference. All I'm doing is straight-forward malloc/free, surely I don't have to call vm_page_unwire myself? Would it be a problem if memory malloced by one KLD was being freed in another? I'm (still) using 3.0-RELEASE. Thanks in advance for any help. Andrew.
