Hi Umesh,
my IOKit driver wants to allocate really a lot of buffers with
IOMalloc(). At about 4 MB of alloc'd memory, further calls to
IOMalloc() fail. Is there some kind of limit defined? How can I
circumvent this problem?
Hope you realize that's 4MB of kernel *wired* memory....
Of course. For my testing purposes, I can afford wasting some wired memory. Could you tell me why it fails, and how I can get more of that precious wired memory? Thank you- Heiko Panther _______________________________________________ darwin-kernel mailing list | darwin-kernel@lists.apple.com Help/Unsubscribe/Archives: http://www.lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/darwin-kernel Do not post admin requests to the list.
