Hi,

Thanks for your replying.

According to the OOM message, OOM killer is invoked by the function seq_read, I found two patches in the latest kernel which can be avoid or fixed this problem.

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/commit/fs/seq_file.c?id=058504edd02667eef8fac9be27ab3ea74332e9b4
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/commit/fs/seq_file.c?id=5cec38ac866bfb8775638e71a86e4d8cac30caae

As the patches said, it changed the seq_file code fallback to vmalloc allocations if kmalloc failed, instead of OOM kill processes.

The problem is most of your memory for ZONE_DMA32 is available only in sizes of order-0 and order-1 and the slab allocator is trying to allocate
order-2 memory with no possibility of fallback to a smaller order.

You're running on a 3.0.58 kernel, but the watermark calculation should be the same in recent kernels.  

If you follow the logic of __zone_watermark_ok(), which uses the same watermarks as printed above, the min watermark for this zone is 1751 pages and the total zone free pages is 247588.  Discounting order-0 memory, there are only 59075 pages free with a min watermark of 875 pages.  
Discounting order-1 memory, there are 157 pages free with a min watermark of 437 pages.  This is where your allocation fails.  Even though the zone has 672KB of memory available, the per-order watermark fails.

The only option you have to avoid this other than changing your workload is to alter lowmem_reserve_ratio, see Documentation/sysctl/vm.txt.  You have 916KB of memory in ZONE_DMA that could be used for this allocation if it wasn't reserved for DMA allocations.
