Hello,
We've recently upgraded from gluster 3.6.6 to 3.7.6 and have started encountering dmesg page allocation errors (stack trace is appended). It appears that glusterfsd now sometimes fills up the cache completely and crashes with a page allocation failure. I *believe* it mainly happens when copying lots of new data to the system, running a 'find', or similar. Hosts are all Scientific Linux 6.6 and these errors occur consistently on two separate gluster pools.
Has anyone else seen this issue and are there any known fixes for it via sysctl kernel parameters or other means?
Please let me know of any other diagnostic information that would help.
Thanks,
Patrick
