System: NetBSD intrepid.warped.com 1.3C NetBSD 1.3C (INTREPID) #1: Mon Feb 16 17:38:53 PST 1998 scotte@intrepid.warped.com:/home/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/INTREPID i386
>Description:
IPFilter 3.2.3 compiled as an LKM with -DUVM and -DPMAP_NEW in
/etc/mk.conf causes kernel to crash when it's loaded. The module
appears to load, but then causes a dump with a UVM error message.
(unable to copy down the message)
LKM's in general work okay, as the Aperture driver loads and
operates on the same kernel.
>How-To-Repeat:
UVM kernel loading ip-filter LKM.
