Based on our parallel conversation I feel a need to clarify my position. The commit in question has multiple changes in it: 1. removal of KVA check, which was later correctly restored for i386 2. addition of DTrace probes 3. zfs_arc_free_target check and all the support code for it So, #1 plus later fixes is obviously correct. #2 is useful and I like it. #3 is what I have great doubts about. All of what I said in the previous emails applies to #3 exclusively. -- 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"
