jhb 2008-09-24 17:49:54 UTC FreeBSD src repository Modified files: (Branch: RELENG_6) sys/vm vm_object.c Log: SVN rev 183327 on 2008-09-24 17:49:54Z by jhb MFC: 176526,176596 - Correct a long-standing error in vm_object_deallocate(). Specifically, only anonymous default (OBJT_DEFAULT) and swap (OBJT_SWAP) objects should ever have OBJ_ONEMAPPING set. However, vm_object_deallocate() was setting it on device (OBJT_DEVICE) objects. As a result, vm_object_page_remove() could be called on a device object and if that occurred pmap_remove_all() would be called on the device object's pages. However, a device object's pages are fictitious, and fictitious pages do not have an initialized pv list (struct md_page). - Correct a long-standing error in vm_object_page_remove(). Specifically, pmap_remove_all() must not be called on fictitious pages. To date, fictitious pages have been allocated from zeroed memory, effectively hiding this problem because the fictitious pages appear to have an empty pv list. - Rewrite the comments describing vm_object_page_remove() to better describe what it does. Add an assertion. Approved by: re (kib), alc Revision Changes Path 1.349.2.9 +25 -6 src/sys/vm/vm_object.c
