Synopsis: panic: getnewbuf:
State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: dillon
State-Changed-When: Wed Sep 29 10:00:27 PDT 1999
State-Changed-Why:
Just prior to the 3.3 release getnewbuf() was patched to avoid this particular
panic. The patch is about as good as we can get short of rewriting
getnewbuf() in the 3.x releases. getnewbuf() *has* been completely rewritten
in the 4.x development kernels (i.e. -current) and does not have this problem
at all.
