The function is:
void
_vm_map_lock(vm_map_t map, const char *file, int line)
{
if (map->system_map)
mtx_lock_flags_(&map->system_mtx, 0, file, line);
else
sx_xlock_(&map->lock, file, line);
map->timestamp++;
}
system_map is at offset 0xd5, thus the faulting address of 0xd6 with map
address of 1 looks like the backtrace is corect. But this suggests the
bug is unrelated to my changes and there is a chance there is no bug in
the first place.
Please make sure that the virtualbox module is recompiled against proper
source tree. If the problem persists, please bisect. The range is not
big.
Off hand I don't see what can cause the failure in question (and chances
are there is no bug if kbi changed and the module was not recompiled).
