--- Comment #15 from Kristof Provost <kp@freebsd.org> ---
(In reply to fehmi noyan isi from comment #14)
> So, does this come down to supplying a default value and re-attempting ma=
lloc() again?

I was thinking in that direction as well, yes. It's either that, or not
activating pf at all. Running it with a smaller state table might not be id=
eal,
but it's bound to be a lot better than running without firewall at all.

> Yes, that might help to avoid this bug, but I do not think FreeBSD has ma=
llocarray()?

It does now. It was added very recently (in head). man 9 mallocarray. It mi=
ght
be worth doing that change in a separate commit.
