In FreeBSD 9, examining the VM map of a process (with e.g. 'procstat -v') with a tmpfs file mapped showed a VNODE type and displayed the file path. In 10.0 up to CURRENT (I believe this started at r250030), instead SWAP is shown without a filepath. This has some unfortunate consequences; I discovered this problem when trying to use dtrace's pid provider, which fails to find symbols for executables running from tmpfs. I've attached a patch which will repair procstat/dtrace. There are a few other places such a patch would be needed. I'm willing to put together such a patch, but would like to first hear some feedback that this seems like a reasonable approach, or if there's anything I've missed. Thoughts? Eric
