Link count locking also has the virtue of working over nfs, as opposed
to flock().

I found a strange behavior of cvs (see sample session below).
Checking out the source codes seems OK, but when I update the codes with
-r and -D options, source codes are disappeared. cvs update with -r
option only is OK for me.
Is it a bug, or just my misunderstandings of cvs behavior?

I just know you have just committed a bugfix for BCM5701 on freebsd-hacker
list. I will try it out and let you know the result.

By the way..
IJ-II's in .de were leased from IBM via Deutche Telecom so theoretically
it's stolen property..
IBM is recalling them and destroying them however..

Well, it should be noted that there are two things going on with swap.
What I adjusted was the size of the swap_zone, which holds swblocks.
These structures hold the VM->SWAP block mappings for things that are
swapped out. The swap zone eats a lot more KVA then the radix tree

Terry,
I made an initial change to the kernel of reducing maxusers from 512 to
256 - you said that 3gig is right on the border of needing extra KVA or
not, so I thought maybe this unnecessarily high maxusers might be puching
me "over the top". However, as long as I was changing the kernel, I al

Hello,
there already is some code for smbalert# handling on intpm
(ENABLE_ALART), but there is no support for handling it in a driver. O2
AudioDJ (OZ162) chips use this signal to indicate that a button was

occurs.
