The kva is not pre-allocated. The more allocations you have for that pcb type, the more memory and kva space will be reserved for them. As I said, the kva used for the pcbs will come out of kmem_map. If you're allocating the pcbs, then you're not wasting the kva. When you free them, the kva and memory stayed reserved, but this is required for type stable storage, which the pcbs appear to be. -- Bosko Milekic * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * [EMAIL PROTECTED] TECHNOkRATIS Consulting Services * http://www.technokratis.com/ _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
