I made a mballoc kernel thread that fills up mbufs and mbuf clusters when number of mbufs/clusters of its general list is under low watermark along with suggestions that Mr. Milekic has made around late November. http://redjade.org/doc/patches/mballoc_kproc.diff It seems useful until and even after kmem_malloc() is out from under Giant. Would someone please comment upon the diff and questions below? - Appropriate watermark check rate - How to use mballoc [via wakeup] in mb_alloc() efficiently when it needs to allocate a new page [Hardest for me to decide because of lack of experience...] - M_WAIT or M_NOWAIT in memory allocation of mballoc kproc - Strategy for high watermark wash out Thanks. -- Kyunghwan Kim redjade@ada.snu.ac.kr To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
