Do you have a backtrace?

It looks that you are running out of KVA. Is that right? Perhaps
decreasing the following in uvm_emap.c would help:

#ifdef _LP64
#define UVM_EMAP_SIZE           (128 * 1024 * 1024)     /* 128 MB */
#else

But if so, why is it too high? How much of KVA space IA64 allocates?

Why do you want to make it global?

P.S. Please send such emails to tech-kern, it's more kernel focused. :)
