I'm seeing the message in $subject on my Xen DOM0 on next-20150204 on

discussion

similar topics here recently. I can trigger this pretty reliably by
watching Netflix. At some point (minutes to hours) into it, the
netflix
video goes black (audio keeps going, so it still thinks it's working)
and
the error appears in dmesg. Refreshing the page gets the video going
again,
and it will continue playing for some indeterminate amount of time.
Kirill, I've CC'd you as looking in the logs, you've patched a false
positive trigger of this very recently(patch in kernel I'm running).
Am
I
actually hitting a problem, or is this another false positive case?
Any
additional details that might help?

Checking my logs: On next-20150203 and next-20150204.
I am here not in a VM environment and cannot say what causes these
messages.
I checked a bit the logs and commits in mm.git and linux-next.git.
[1] lists:
Kirill A. Shutemov (1): mm: do not use mm->nr_pmds on !MMU
configurations
NOTE: next-20150204 has this commit, but next-20150203 not (seen the
BUG: line in both releases).
Looking at Kirill's commit...
At my 1st quick look I thought Kirill mixed mm_nr_pmds_init() in the
case of defined(__PAGETABLE_PMD_FOLDED), but I was wrong.
@@ -1440,13 +1440,15 @@ static inline int __pud_alloc(struct mm_struct

So, I drop my idea of reverting Kirill's commit.
Pat, not sure how often you build linux-next.
When doing a daily linux-next testing... Before bisecting I normally
checked which version of linux-next was the last good and which one
was the first bad.
I cannot say which strategy is better.
But you seem to have a reliable test with watching Netflix.

Yeah, I only recently found a patch that lets me boot xen on a recent
-next
kernel:

that I found on it's way to upstream. The last 'known good' Xen setup
for
me was a 3.18.0 rc6 kernel. I only use Xen to experiment with, so I
don't
boot every kernel with Xen enabled, only when I'm working on learning
it.
So as far as a bisect window goes, that's a pretty large one. I'll wait
to
see if anyone else chimes in before attempting the bisect(mostly because
it's 3am here, and they'll all likely have a chance to see this chain of
e-mails before I can get going on the bisect tomorrow). I'll also check
to
see if I can trigger it on this kernel without booting in xen.
I have run ltp (20150119) in special the mm testsuite.
It produces call-traces here when running OOM tests (oom03, oom04 and
oom05).

Do you have "memcg swap accounting is disabled" (see above)?
Can you try with CONFIG_MEMCG_SWAP_ENABLED=y to see if this has an effect?
Here I have it disabled and the following memcg kernel-options set...
$ grep -i memcg /boot/config-3.19.0-rc7-next-20150204.14-iniza-small
CONFIG_MEMCG=y
CONFIG_MEMCG_SWAP=y
# CONFIG_MEMCG_SWAP_ENABLED is not set
# CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is not set
Hope the mm folk can explain if this option is relevant for the issue or
not.
linux-next $ grep -i memcg /boot/config-3.19.0-rc7
# CONFIG_MEMCG is not set
I have MEMCG completely disabled, so it doesn't appear to be required for
this issue. I'm slowly searching back for a 'good' build to start the
bisection. Unfortunately, it can take a while to reproduce the issue, so
I'm only 2 tries into finding a recent good kernel.
Please, run LTP with mm testsuite, too.
root# LC_ALL=C ./runltp -f mm
It helped to trigger the bug here.
See build-instructions in [1].
Thanks.

With a long day of compiling and rebooting behind me, all I was able to
do was determine that my Netflix video issue is a separate issue from
this error message. I just reproduced the Video freeze in Xen on a
kernel that I can't make show the error message. The other possibility
is that the change that's causing the message to appear is, in fact,
reporting an issue that was uncaught by the error before.
What is the error message meant to mean/represent? I feel like it's
missing some detail to make it useful(it may not be, I just know that,
to me, seeing it as is doesn't tell me anything about how to figure out
what's going on/going wrong).
