can't this be fixed by making it dynamic?
It's not easy because the return value of softint_establish() is
made from this area's address. As you know, the value is keep by each driver.
I'm sorry. I misread kern_softint.c. The return value is not directly point to
the area, but it's

We could make the "void *cookie" returned by softint_establish(9) an
index (internally) instead (w/o changing ABI or
softint_establish() already fails if there is no space, and prints a
WARNING in this case. The caller however needs to check for the failure,
which ixgbe(4) mostly doesn't. Not sure if that is really the root cause,
the panic seems to be actually in different area, and I didn't actually see

No. ixgbe() checks the return value of if_initialize() and return
correctly.
