Hi, All I got a issue that kmalloc() fails to allocate 32-K page while there are still pretty much total memory available (60+MB). Any suggestions? Any thing I can tune to reduced the failure cases? It happens with 2.6.35 kernel <4>[ 6232.631622] getevent invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0xd0, order=3, oom_adj=0 <4>[ 6232.639312] [<c0053230>] (unwind_backtrace+0x0/0xf0) from [<c0109a88>] (dump_header.clone.1+0x50/0x84) <4>[ 6232.649597] [<c0109a88>] (dump_header.clone.1+0x50/0x84) from [<c0109af0>] (oom_kill_process.clone.0+0x34/0xec) <4>[ 6232.660705] [<c0109af0>] (oom_kill_process.clone.0+0x34/0xec) from [<c0109d04>] (__out_of_memory+0x15c/0x184) <4>[ 6232.671630] [<c0109d04>] (__out_of_memory+0x15c/0x184) from [<c0109dc0>] (out_of_memory+0x94/0xd4) <4>[ 6232.681488] [<c0109dc0>] (out_of_memory+0x94/0xd4) from [<c010d474>] (__alloc_pages_nodemask+0x4c4/0x6e8) <4>[ 6232.692016] [<c010d474>] (__alloc_pages_nodemask+0x4c4/0x6e8) from [<c0131fec>] (cache_grow.clone.0+0xac/0x3e4) <4>[ 6232.703125] [<c0131fec>] (cache_grow.clone.0+0xac/0x3e4) from [<c013334c>] (__kmalloc+0x3ec/0x6c4) <4>[ 6232.712982] [<c013334c>] (__kmalloc+0x3ec/0x6c4) from [<c0393f9c>] (evdev_open+0x94/0x1ec) <4>[ 6232.722137] [<c0393f9c>] (evdev_open+0x94/0x1ec) from [<c0390cac>] (input_open_file+0x184/0x2d8) <4>[ 6232.731781] [<c0390cac>] (input_open_file+0x184/0x2d8) from [<c013b668>] (chrdev_open+0x20c/0x234) <4>[ 6232.741638] [<c013b668>] (chrdev_open+0x20c/0x234) from [<c0136b80>] (__dentry_open+0x200/0x324) <4>[ 6232.751281] [<c0136b80>] (__dentry_open+0x200/0x324) from [<c0136d60>] (nameidata_to_filp+0x3c/0x50) <4>[ 6232.761322] [<c0136d60>] (nameidata_to_filp+0x3c/0x50) from [<c0142878>] (do_last+0x4c8/0x5ec) <4>[ 6232.770782] [<c0142878>] (do_last+0x4c8/0x5ec) from [<c0144450>] (do_filp_open+0x184/0x514) <4>[ 6232.779937] [<c0144450>] (do_filp_open+0x184/0x514) from [<c0136824>] (do_sys_open+0x58/0x18c) <4>[ 6232.789428] [<c0136824>] (do_sys_open+0x58/0x18c) from [<c004db20>] (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x30) <4>[ 6232.798980] Mem-info: <4>[ 6232.801483] Normal per-cpu: <4>[ 6232.804565] CPU 0: hi: 186, btch: 31 usd: 15 <4>[ 6232.809844] active_anon:34424 inactive_anon:36745 isolated_anon:3 <4>[ 6232.809875] active_file:2 inactive_file:0 isolated_file:65 <4>[ 6232.809875] unevictable:95 dirty:0 writeback:0 unstable:0 <4>[ 6232.809906] free:16133 slab_reclaimable:1274 slab_unreclaimable:3892 <4>[ 6232.809906] mapped:8809 shmem:263 pagetables:4657 bounce:0 <4>[ 6232.841766] Normal free:64532kB min:2884kB low:3604kB high:4324kB active_anon:137696kB inactive_anon:146980kB active_file:8kB inactive_file:0kB unevictable:380kB isolated(anon):12kB isolated(file):260kB present:520192kB mlocked:0kB dirty:0kB writeback:0kB mapped:35236kB shmem:1052kB slab_reclaimable:5096kB slab_unreclaimable:15568kB kernel_stack:6544kB pagetables:18628kB unstable:0kB bounce:0kB writeback_tmp:0kB pages_scanned:34 all_unreclaimable? no <4>[ 6232.885314] lowmem_reserve[]: 0 0 0 <4>[ 6232.889190] Normal: 10659*4kB 2735*8kB 1*16kB 0*32kB 0*64kB 0*128kB 0*256kB 0*512kB 0*1024kB 0*2048kB 0*4096kB = 64532kB <4>[ 6232.901367] 397 total pagecache pages <4>[ 6232.905395] 0 pages in swap cache <4>[ 6232.909027] Swap cache stats: add 0, delete 0, find 0/0 <4>[ 6232.914764] Free swap = 0kB <4>[ 6232.917968] Total swap = 0kB <4>[ 6232.945617] 131072 pages of RAM <4>[ 6232.949127] 17229 free pages <4>[ 6232.952270] 22953 reserved pages <4>[ 6232.955810] 5166 slab pages <4>[ 6232.958892] 123153 pages shared <4>[ 6232.962341] 0 pages swap cached -- Best Regards Hu Tao -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
