Hi,
I have a volatile pointer declared in my device driver.
I am allocating memory using kernel malloc function.
host_mem_resp_ptr = (volatile unsigned long *)malloc(sizeof(volatile
unsigned long), M_DEVBUF, M_NOWAIT);
When I try to free it, I get following warning while compiling the driver.

I recently applied a patch from current to adjust the
console settings for my laptop. Previously my console
was limited to 1/3 rd of my screen, however due to the
new current-vesa patch I can now view my console using
the entire screen with only one problem.
I have noticed that there is a small

Are there any efforts underway to support the now prevalent 7520/7530
intel chipsets in Freebsd 4.x? They seem to work ok with 5.x, but its
been widely reported that 4.x has serious problems. Given that 5.x is
still a ways off from matching the performance of 4.x, those of us with

All,
I was looking into getting an Adaptec 2410SA SATA (Serial ATA RAID
card). I just wanted to ensure this is supported by FreeBSD.
I looked at the hardware list, and there is a card listed under the aac
driver as a SCSI device, but with the 2410SA des

Master. I'm starting to think that although it claims to be an ATA
adaptor, it will only recognise Kingston-brand disks (it was desig

Is it available with FreeBSD4.10 release?
I am working on 4.10.
I couldnt find this __DEVOLATILE.
OR
Is it defined in any other file for 4.10 release?
