I am running a 2.4.19 Kernel and have a problem where a process is using the up to the 0xC0000000 of space. It is no longer possible for this process to get any more memory vi mmap or via shmget. However, when I dump the /procs/#/maps file, I see large chunks of memory deleted. i.e this should be freely available to be used by the next call. I do not see these addresses get re-used. The maps file is attached. <<9369>> Jack Bloch Siemens ICN phone (561) 923-6550 e-mail jack.bloch@icn.siemens.com
