Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have been wondering this for some time. There are many kernel submaps: exec_map, clean_map, etc. But if you look the code in vm_map_find(), we have to call splvm() for kmem_map and its submap mb_map, but not for other kernel submaps. So is there anything special with these two kernel submaps? Thanks for any help. -Zhihui To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
