Re: panic: Memory modified after free

Thanks for looking at this.  I'm still scratching my head on it.

these are fibre 1000 base sx connections.  They don't attach correctly in 
the 5.0-release kernel as well (with the exact same error), but it does
continue to boot correctly.  These are hardwired into the bus, and I'm
unable to disable them. :(

I'm not positive, so I'm going to say no, but I'm also fairly sure that 
the memory is good.  I ran make buildworld on 5.0 successfully w/o any
problems.  Slow bios memcheck at startup is good.

this seems similar to:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/53566

except the last user is of memory is different.

Speaking of memory

5.0 - release:

  real memory  = 536870912 (512 MB)
  Physical memory chunk(s):
! 0x00001000 - 0x0009efff, 647168 bytes (158 pages)
! 0x0064f000 - 0x1fff7fff, 530223104 bytes (129449 pages)
! avail memory = 515031040 (491 MB)

-current:
  real memory  = 536870912 (512 MB)
  Physical memory chunk(s):
! 0x0000000000001000 - 0x000000000009efff, 647168 bytes (158 pages)
! 0x0000000000100000 - 0x00000000003fffff, 3145728 bytes (768 pages)
! 0x0000000000c26000 - 0x000000001f6d9fff, 514539520 bytes (125620 pages)
! avail memory = 511942656 (488 MB)

I think the next step is to move up to a 5.1-release kernel and see if
it boots as well as the 5.0-release does, or provides a more interesting
panic.
