Hi hackers! I need to hunt kernel memory allocations done by a kld. Unfortunately the kld in question is a blob, no access to source code, so I need to check for kmem_alloc() + kmem_malloc() + kmem_free() and print information from there to the console screen. >From within these functions, I need to get the name (or an ID) of the module trying to allocate memory (and display that or - better - filter some allocations out). Thx, Volker
