They are "map->size" and "pmap_wired_count(map->pmap)". Instead of maintaining duplicate counters, could the resource accounting framework be extended to support callbacks to obtain a value when it's actually needed? That would be rather hard. The way this works is that raccts are hierarchical, and every time resource allocation is done, its respective counter needs to be propagated all the way up. If it hits a limit somewhere, the racct function returns error meaning the resource allocation was denied. In other words, racct wants to know when the counter changes.Received on Sun Aug 11 2013 - 14:59:41 UTC
