Subject:   Page Fault problem with my KLD
Message-ID:  <001301c0b940$3d48ca80$cafba8c0@sitaranetworks.com>

I am developing a KLD and I am having problems getting a page fault.  I am
using a set "library" (basically a set of third party object files I build
and then link in).  This libarary requires its own chunk of memory that it
manages and needs to be passed a pointer to that memory (and the size) when
it is initialized.  So during my load phase I malloc the memory (14M), at
this point I can traverse the memory just fine using a for loop writing and
reading from it as a test.  However once I pass this memory into the
"library" to use, I get a page fault error.  Is there something I am missing
here?  What would be the possible causes of the page fault?

Any and all help would be appreciated and if you could CC this account I
would appreciate it (my FreeBSD mailing list subscriptions are from another
account).
