hello everybody,

i am recently troubled by kernel panics that occur as
soon as 
i run my modified kernel. the only modification i have
done
is i have added compression/decompression function in
the
bridge.c file. I am running 5.4 RELEASE. 

i am just a new beginner in programming the kernel and
may 
have insufficient knowledge regarding it.

things i have done in the function that could affect
the kernel operation are:
1. i frequently allocate memory using malloc() in
M_DEVBUF and 
    M_TEMP with M_WAITOK flag
2. i allocate memory with malloc and construct tree.
the node count
    can go up 350 so that i may call malloc about 600
times in the 
    routine. i know that may sound pretty dumb but
right now i have 
    no other choice now as i know so little.
3. the functions are pretty longer and contain loops
so they may consume time
	since the bridge code may be called for all the
packets flowing 
	through the network. 
4. i have used data structures like linked lists and
trees.

now the problem is as soon as i run my modified kernel
it panics with
fatal trap 12. the name of the process that crashed is
sometimes the cron,
sometimes ps, sometimes top, sometimes g_up, and
sometimes sendmail.

i don't know what to do because the i have tested the
function 
separately and it works fine. i used the dmalloc to
see whether 
the memory leak was present but i didnot find any. it
may be
posible that my tests with dmalloc were insufficient. 

So i have put the crash dumps here that may help 
some of you suggest me whether there is anything i 
can possibly do in order to solve this panic.

Is the problem related to memory leaks or sleeping 
on mutexes or some other causes. 

i have added my function just before the
IFQ_HANDOFF().

thanks,

kamal kc
