The following reply was made to PR kern/130059; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Jason DiCioccio" <jd@ods.org> To: bug-followup@freebsd.org Cc: Subject: Re: kern/130059: [panic] Leaking 50k mbufs/hour Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2009 16:51:47 -0800 I narrowed this bug down to the following patch to djb's ucspi-tcp (adds ipv6 functionality): http://www.fefe.de/ucspi/ I don't think that userland processes should be able to wreak that much havoc on the network stack. Another thing of note is that even if I kill the processes causing the problem, the mbufs are never reclaimed. Seems like a permanent leak. When I got rid of the ipv6 patch, the mbufs stopped building up and everything has been fine.. Note that the ipv6 traffic for this process was fairly minimal.
