Steve,
We in Europe are looking for FreeBSD support LMC 150x"P" cards (PCI in
common PC format), for channelized E1 PRI applications.
Do you think your work "for the LMC cards" would apply to that specific
board? The "P" board will be available this month. The mezzanine-format

I've managed to write a program to do what I want, which works fine on
2.2.8 but doesn't work with elf kernels it appears. Is there an
equivalent interface for elf kernels to the kvm interface for a.out
kernels?
If anyone is interested, I've attached the program.

I have attached my final program which works on both FreeBSD 2.x and
FreeBSD 3.x (I don't have a FreeBSD 4.x box to test this on yet).
On FreeBSD 2.x one must be root to run this (to read /dev/kmem), but
on FreeBSD 3.x any user can run this.
I would argue that this is a potential security

These approaches work well, so long as the 32-bit sequence space doesn't
wrap. At 100Mb/s, this wraps in about 6 minutes. Sure, most connections
don't carry more than 4GB of data but you might be interested in the ones
that do.
This also is a problem for the counters in struct if_data that

gethostbyname_r exists, at least in 4.0, but is poorly implemented (it is
in fact not thread safe). However, if you are using 4.0, you should consider
