Scanning the full memory may take a lot of time, depending on the amount of RAM and the number of objects allocated. It is not unlikely to take more than 120 seconds on some loaded systems. However, it should call schedule() periodically to let other tasks run. Is your system unresponsive during this? > [ 1704.619898] INFO: task kmemleak:763 blocked for more than 120 seconds. > [ 1704.697951] "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" > disables this message. > [ 1704.791613] kmemleak D 0000000000000001 6008 763 2 [...] > [ 1706.246334] no locks held by kmemleak/763. It looks like the kmemleak thread is in the TASK_UNINTERUPTIBLE state. This happens when it calls schedule_timeout_uninterruptible() to sleep between scans. It probably took more than 120 to scan the memory and hence the report. It doesn't look like a problem, only that the watchdog thread checks for uninterruptible tasks. I can try to make it sleep with TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE to avoid the message.
