I expect to have a machine (with a crazy number of CPUs/devices) available
in a couple of days (1-2), so no need to rush.

The original machine I was able to reproduce with is blocked for a little
bit longer; so I hope the alternative I looked up will similarly trigger the
issue easily.

OK give this a spin:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux.git/log/?h=20230316-module-alloc-opts

Today I am up to here:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux.git/log/?h=20230317-module-alloc-opts

The last patch really would have no justification yet at all unless it
does help your case.

Still waiting on the system (the replacement system I was able to grab
broke ...).

I'll let you know once I succeeded in reproducing + testing your fixes.

Okay, I have a system where I can reproduce.

Should I give

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux.git/log/?h=20230319-module-alloc-opts

from yesterday a churn?

Yes please give that a run.

Reproduced with v6.3.0-rc1 (on 1st try)

By reproduced, you mean it fails to boot?

It boots but we get vmap allocation warnings, because the ~440 CPUs manage
to completely exhaust the module vmap area due to KASAN.

Thanks, can you post a trace?

See

https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20221013180518.217405-1-david@xxxxxxxxxx

where I also describe the issue in more detail.


Not able to reproduce with 20230319-module-alloc-opts so far (2 tries).

Oh wow, so to clarify, it boots OK?

It boots and I don't get the vmap allocation warnings.

Wonderful!

I'm still compiling/testing the debug kernels (20230319-module-alloc-opts-adjust + single revert of the rcu patch). I should have some systemd-analyze results for !debug kernels later.
