The patch file

There is no need to print the address of ifp
every time when calling netmap_mem_pt_guest_ifp_del.
This will leak the address of ifp to user space.

Hi Fuqian,

Before you spend much more time on this effort, FreeBSD does not use KASLR; kernel pointer disclosures are widespread in FreeBSD and generally not considered a problem.

@Vincenzo Is stable/11 affected by this? If not, set mfc-stable11 to -, otherwise we'll leave this open pending that MFC
Comment 6 Conrad Meyer freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-09-07 20:56:28 UTC
stable/11 will have no more releases and this bug isn't.
