:Anyway, I have a simple program that mmap()s a 1Gig file into memory, :madvise()s it that it will be doing random access. If I quit and restart :this program a couple of times (yes, it close()s and munmap()s the segment), :my system will hard lock. By dropping into DDB once I found that it was :stuck in 'vm_somethingorother_choosepage'. Does this ring any bells? Should :I try to stop my system again? : :-- :David Cross | email: cro...@cs.rpi.edu
David, can you email this program to me please? Also, which FreeBSD release does this occur on? I've got about 6 mmap-related bugs on my plate at the moment. 3 of them have been identified ( that is, I know why they deadlock the machine ), but none have been fixed yet. -Matt Matthew Dillon <dil...@backplane.com> :Systems Administrator/Research Programmer | Web: http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~crossd :Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, | Ph: 518.276.2860 :Department of Computer Science | Fax: 518.276.4033 :I speak only for myself. | WinNT:Linux::Linux:FreeBSD : : :To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org :with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message : To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
