If anyone whom responds could cc me, I'd appreciate it.
I seem to be having a problem making the logic jump in bus resource allocation
with FreeBSD 5.x. Its been awhile since I've done driver development (around
early 3.x), where you would call pci_map_mem() to get the virtual and
physical memory
Hi guys,
as the subject says, i'm a newbie in kernel and
i'm facing the task to port a userland program
in kernel land (actually inside a netgraph node)
and i was wondering how to threat the memory inside
the kernel:
are there any important things i should be aware of?
like memory/stack limit,

The only known problem is nearly all PCI network drivers don't use
busdma (disk controllers already use busdma). If you're willing to
use a crappy ISA nic which either uses busdma or just does PIO, you
should be fine.

Rumor has it that adding such support will be relatively easy once actual
