Best way to lock malloc'd memory in kernel

I'm writing a device driver for plex86 (the FreeMWare virtual machine software), and have a buffer that needs to be non-pageable. It was malloc'd with the malloc(size, type, flags) kernel malloc function. What's the best way to make this memory unpageable? Thanks in advance, Isaac Waldron waldr

some "md" (memory disk) questions

1) Might I want to replace my MFS /tmp with an md-based one? 2) I looked at LINT and GENERIC, I read section 10.6.2 of the Handbook, and I looked for an md man page in vain. Where could I find additional documentation for md? I'm particularly interested in finding out what it's good fo

vinum striping quiestion

Hello, I've got a question about vinum. There are two scsi disks with vinum stripe. Here is a vinum config: drive a device /dev/da2s1e drive b device /dev/da3s1e volume vinum0 plex name vinum0.p0 org striped 1024s vol vinum0 sd name vinum0.p0.s0 drive a plex vinum0.p0 len 34791424s d

core dumps when mmap'd to large sparse files

I have a program where I mmap a huge sparse file. If I fault and generate a core dump it proceeds to do something until the disk is full, but the disk is then left not full and a perfectly good core dump of a reasonable size is left. Can anyone explain? This is with 4.0. Peter -- Peter Dufaul

Documentation for pcm/voxware sound drivers?

Is there complete documentation for pcm / voxware sound drivers anywhere? I'd like to play around with sound on my 4-STABLE box (soundcard is a SB Live), but there documentation in the man pages, and on Luigi Rizzo's page, doesn't completely cover the ioctls and uses of the various sound devices.
