I think I've "figured it out" to the extent I can.
The mmap is done like this:
linux_mmap_common(0, 1785856, 3, 0x00000801, 3, 0x0)
The failure happens due to this check in vm_map_findspace():
if (start > map->max_offset)
When I print things out here, I see:
start = 0xc0001000, map->min_offset = 0x0, map->max_offset = 0xbfc00000
This "start" is the addr that was chosen in mmap() for non-MAP_FIXED
mappings:
if (addr == 0 ||
(addr >= round_page((vm_offset_t)vms->vm_taddr) &&
addr < round_page((vm_offset_t)vms->vm_daddr +
lim_max(td->td_proc, RLIMIT_DATA))))
addr = round_page((vm_offset_t)vms->vm_daddr +
lim_max(td->td_proc, RLIMIT_DATA));
I can work around this with a hack in linux_mmap_common() to set the
address to 4K so that this code never runs, but I'd really like to
understand what's happening...
Hmm.. Another work around is to break into ddb and *reduce* maxdsize
from the default 512MB to 256MB:
db> e maxdsiz
maxdsiz: 20000000
db> w maxdsiz 10000000
Thanks,
Drew
