class="FILENAME">libscrypt</tt> and <tt class=
"FILENAME">libdescrypt</tt>; the new unified library is
called <tt class="FILENAME">libcrypt</tt>.</p>
<p>A problem has been noted with an increasing number of
device drivers that make heavy use of and, in some cases,
can overflow, the kernel stack. This problem has an
easily-identifable signature; processes randomly receive a
<tt class="LITERAL">SIGPROF</tt> signal and may die with
the message ``<tt class="ERRORNAME">Profiling time
alarm</tt>''. For those users experiencing this problem, a
workaround is to edit <tt class=
"FILENAME">/src/sys/i386/include/param.h</tt> and change
the line which reads:</p>
<pre class="PROGRAMLISTING">
#define UPAGES 2
</pre>
to read:
<pre class="PROGRAMLISTING">
#define UPAGES 3
</pre>
It will be necessary to recompile the kernel and reboot for
the change to take effect. This problem has been fixed in
FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE.<br>
