Well, minidumps are not always very small. And there's still that issue of other CPUs still running during panic->dumping and thus (mini-)dump maps getting changed (larger) after dump size calculations which results in an aborted dump. -- Andriy Gapon _______________________________________________ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
