Sorry for the cross-post, but I expect that this will have multiple

Based on a lot of messages traveling in the -stable mailing list, we're
once again looking at putting together some volunteers to do QA on the

Anyone have any suggestions (or feel like writing) code to exercise the
following subsystems?
- Virtual Memory
- The threads library
- mmap() and friends
We want to try to bang on them a little more for 3.4 than we have in the past.

I was just playing with mmap() really for the first time, and I noticed
something a bit odd. When you mmap() a file for writing, it also appears
to require that you give it read permissions, else it dies on a signal 10.
Any reason for this? (I'm using 3.3-STABLE (11/30/99) with the following

Hey, guys. I went a slightly different route than playing with the numlock key
to get FreeBSD running. The problem seems to really be the -P (probe the
keyboard) boot option, and it setting -D and -h when it doesn't find it. My
"workaround" was to make boot floppies, and edit boot.conf to remove
Personally, I'm keen with the fact that the problem is known, its understood
there isn't an easy fix, and I have a work around.

When compiling kernels, either by cd'ing to /usr/src/sys/i386/conf,

If this is true, then the first 4.1 RC snapshot has a bad source tree.

All,
I've done some hacking on bootparamd to support multiple subnets
(along with applying some patches to allow some Sun-specific behavior) that
I'm using for jumpstarting Solaris/Sparc boxes across a boatload of small
subnets.
The most obvious change is adding a -R parameter, th
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
