Hello, We are using FreeBSD + VIMAGE at work, and we have seen an annoying problem : there seems to be a memory leak in the kernel, which eventually causes a panic. (yes, we have seen the following message : "WARNING: VIMAGE (virtualized network stack) is a highly experimental feature.") Configuring a network interface in a jail with vnet enabled, then removing that jail causes these messages. In dmesg: [...] Freed UMA keg was not empty (203 items). Lost 1 pages of memory. Freed UMA keg was not empty (36 items). Lost 2 pages of memory. The issue happens in a GENERIC FreeBSD 8.1 kernel, with VIMAGE enabled (with attached VIMAGE kernel config file). The following commands reproduce the bug: jail -l -u root -c path=/ name=foo persist vnet && jexec foo ifconfig lo0 127.0.0.1/8 && jail -r foo Running it too many times exhausts kernel memory and crashes the machine. The probleme is seen on 8.1-release kernel, 8-stable from SVN and SVN -head. Attachments: dmesg log and kernel config. cheers Thierry HerbelotReceived on Wed Nov 17 2010 - 04:46:30 UTC
