Subject: mb_map full error
Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org
Precedence: bulk

My FreeBSD server recently went down with a mb_map full error. It is working
fine again after a reboot.

Can anyone shed some light on what that error means? Looking at the source,
it appears to come from /sys/kern/uipc_mbuf.c. My (probably ignorant) guess
is that the message indicates I was unable to allocate any more pages if
virtual memory.

Thanks in advance.
