* Fix null-pointer dereference crash when the system is intentionallyMatthew Dillon2000-02-161-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | run out of KVM through a mmap()/fork() bomb that allocates hundreds of thousands of vm_map_entry structures. Add panic to make null-pointer dereference crash a little more verbose. Add a new sysctl, vm.max_proc_mmap, which specifies the maximum number of mmap()'d spaces (discrete vm_map_entry's in the process). The value defaults to around 9000 for a 128MB machine. The test is scaled for the number of processes sharing a vmspace (aka linux threads). Setting the value to 0 disables the feature.

* Add MAP_NOSYNC feature to mmap(), and MADV_NOSYNC and MADV_AUTOSYNC toMatthew Dillon1999-12-122-0/+56
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | madvise(). This feature prevents the update daemon from gratuitously flushing dirty pages associated with a mapped file-backed region of memory. The system pager will still page the memory as necessary and the VM system will still be fully coherent with the filesystem. Modifications made by other means to the same area of memory, for example by write(), are unaffected. The feature works on a page-granularity basis. MAP_NOSYNC allows one to use mmap() to share memory between processes without incuring any significant filesystem overhead, putting it in the same performance category as SysV Shared memory and anonymous memory.
