We actually do have that in the new m_getm(). If you do a m_getm() it allows you to specify 'size' and it will allocate a packet header mbuf for you with external storage and may even allocate more than one and chain them together for you in one shot and without dropping the per-CPU cache lock, if it can get away with it. It does a 'best' fit allocation so you effectively have your 'small,' 'big,' and 'real big' scenario. -- Bosko Milekic * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
