there's an extra check that we inherited from FreeBSD that tries to detect KVA exhaustion on platforms with limited KVA, but the condition that decided whether to use the extra check was using a FreeBSDism that doesn't exist on NetBSD, resulting in this check being used on all platforms. on amd64 systems with lots of memory, this extra check would result in the ARC thinking that it constantly needed to reclaim memory, resulting in all the xcall threads running all the time but not doing anything useful. change this condition so that this extra check for KVA exhaustion is only used on 32-bit platforms. fixes PR 55707. |

NetBSD
NetBSD is a free, fast, secure, and highly portable Unix-like Open Source operating system. It is available for a wide range of platforms, from large-scale servers and powerful desktop systems to handheld and embedded devices.
Building
You can cross-build NetBSD from most UNIX-like operating systems. To build for amd64 (x86_64), in the src directory:
./build.sh -U -u -j4 -m amd64 -O ~/obj release
Additional build information available in the BUILDING file.
Binaries
Testing
On a running NetBSD system:
cd /usr/tests; atf-run | atf-report
Troubleshooting
- Send bugs and patches via web form.
- Subscribe to the mailing lists. The netbsd-users list is a good choice for many problems; watch current-users if you follow the bleeding edge of NetBSD-current.
- Join the community IRC channel #netbsd @ libera.chat.
