There are some unusual cases where a process may cause an mlock()ed range of memory to be unmapped. If the application subsequently faults on that region, the handler may attempt to create a superpage mapping backed by the resident, wired pages. However, the pmap code responsible for creating such a mapping (pmap_enter_pde() on i386 and amd64) does not ensure that a leaf page table page is available if the superpage is later demoted; the demotion operation must therefore perform a non-blocking page allocation and must unmap the entire superpage if the allocation fails. The pmap layer ensures that this can never happen for wired mappings, and so the case described above breaks that invariant. For now, simply ensure that the MI fault handler never attempts to create a wired superpage except via promotion.

FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
