This problem was fixed by security advisory FreeBSD-SA-14:12.ktrace. |
Tracing page faults with ktrace seems to produce disproportionate amount of data in ktrace.out. How-To-Repeat: $ echo "int main() { return 0; }" | clang -x c -o test - $ ktrace -t f ./test -- WARNING: this will take a few minutes and generate ~76GB ktrace.out file $ kdump -- outputs a few lines, most of ktrace.out ignored?
