I'm no longer convinced that we should use simple pv_entries for mapping kernel pages. There are lock recursion issues with the zone allocator - I think that if we ever run out of pv_entries, we will wedge the allocator. I might try to pre-allocate pv_entries in a pseudo-page-table kind of way. I'll have to think about this for a bit. -- Doug Rabson Mail: dfr@nlsystems.com Phone: +44 20 8348 6160 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ia64" in the body of the message
