As predicted, it was stupid, a get_page left over from a previous incarnation. Now it's behaving pretty nicely. I haven't seen an oops for a while and leaks seem to be down to a dull roar if not entirely gone. I think swapoff isn't entirely comfortable with the new situation, and tends to hang, I'll look into that in due course. Since I don't actually have a user base for this, I just overwrote the previously posted leaky version, it's still: nl.linux.org/~phillips/ptab-2.4.17-3 This is getting to the point of needing heavier testing. -- Daniel - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
