Hi Kazu,
This seems to be an extrememly rare condition, but in any case, your
patch is the correct thing to do.
However, I do have two dumpfiles where the change causes the warning message
to be displayed unnecessarily, which was only meant to be displayed if the
mem_map cache is *not* virtually-mapped. But the single check for
!(vt->flags & V_MEM_MAP) is not always sufficient, so it should also
check for !(machdep->flags & VMEMMAP) like so:
--- a/memory.c 2019-09-17 14:20:24.586069004 -0400
+++ b/memory.c 2019-09-17 14:36:36.765286602 -0400
@@ -6348,13 +6348,13 @@ fill_mem_map_cache(ulong pp, ulong ppend

cnt = size;

"virtual page struct cache", RETURN_ON_ERROR|QUIET)) {
- BZERO(bufptr, size);
- if (!(vt->flags & V_MEM_MAP) && ((addr+size) < ppend))

error(WARNING,

}
addr += cnt;
You OK with that?
Thanks,
Dave
