It seems to be the kmem_cache_cache which has a problem, but there have already been lots of caches created and even this samw cache_node already used right beforehand with no problem. Unless a CPU or node comes up or something right at this point or the caller is scheduled onto a different CPU... oopses seem to all have CPU#1, wheras boot CPU is probably #0 (these CPUs are node 0 and memory is only on node 1 and 2 where there are no CPUs if I read correctly). I still can't see the reason for the failure, but can you try this patch please and show dmesg? --- mm/slqb.c | 34 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 31 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) Index: linux-2.6/mm/slqb.c =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/mm/slqb.c +++ linux-2.6/mm/slqb.c @@ -963,6 +963,7 @@ static struct slqb_page *allocate_slab(s flags |= s->allocflags; + flags &= ~0x2000; page = (struct slqb_page *)alloc_pages_node(node, flags, s->order); if (!page) return NULL; @@ -1357,6 +1358,8 @@ static noinline void *__slab_alloc_page( unsigned int colour; void *object; + if (gfpflags & 0x2000) + printk("SLQB: __slab_alloc_page cpu=%d request node=%d\n", smp_processor_id(), node); c = get_cpu_slab(s, smp_processor_id()); colour = c->colour_next; c->colour_next += s->colour_off; @@ -1374,6 +1377,8 @@ static noinline void *__slab_alloc_page( if (unlikely(!page)) return page; + if (gfpflags & 0x2000) + printk("SLQB: __slab_alloc_page cpu=%d,nid=%d request node=%d page node=%d\n", smp_processor_id(), numa_node_id(), node, slqb_page_to_nid(page)); if (!NUMA_BUILD || likely(slqb_page_to_nid(page) == numa_node_id())) { struct kmem_cache_cpu *c; int cpu = smp_processor_id(); @@ -1382,6 +1387,7 @@ static noinline void *__slab_alloc_page( l = &c->list; page->list = l; + printk("SLQB: __slab_alloc_page spin_lock(%p)\n", &l->page_lock); spin_lock(&l->page_lock); l->nr_slabs++; l->nr_partial++; @@ -1398,6 +1404,8 @@ static noinline void *__slab_alloc_page( l = &n->list; page->list = l; + printk("SLQB: __slab_alloc_page spin_lock(%p)\n", &n->list_lock); + printk("SLQB: __slab_alloc_page spin_lock(%p)\n", &l->page_lock); spin_lock(&n->list_lock); spin_lock(&l->page_lock); l->nr_slabs++; @@ -1411,6 +1419,7 @@ static noinline void *__slab_alloc_page( #endif } VM_BUG_ON(!object); + printk("SLQB: __slab_alloc_page OK\n"); return object; } @@ -1440,6 +1449,8 @@ static void *__remote_slab_alloc_node(st struct kmem_cache_list *l; void *object; + if (gfpflags & 0x2000) + printk("SLQB: __remote_slab_alloc_node cpu=%d request node=%d\n", smp_processor_id(), node); n = s->node_slab[node]; if (unlikely(!n)) /* node has no memory */ return NULL; @@ -1541,7 +1552,11 @@ static __always_inline void *slab_alloc( again: local_irq_save(flags); + if (gfpflags & 0x2000) + printk("SLQB: slab_alloc cpu=%d,nid=%d request node=%d\n", smp_processor_id(), numa_node_id(), node); object = __slab_alloc(s, gfpflags, node); + if (gfpflags & 0x2000) + printk("SLQB: slab_alloc cpu=%d return=%p\n", smp_processor_id(), object); local_irq_restore(flags); if (unlikely(slab_debug(s)) && likely(object)) { @@ -2869,9 +2884,12 @@ void __init kmem_cache_init(void) #endif #ifdef CONFIG_SMP + printk("SLQB: kmem_cache_init possible CPUs: "); for_each_possible_cpu(i) { struct kmem_cache_cpu *c; + printk("%d ", i); + c = &per_cpu(kmem_cache_cpus, i); init_kmem_cache_cpu(&kmem_cache_cache, c); kmem_cache_cache.cpu_slab[i] = c; @@ -2886,14 +2904,18 @@ void __init kmem_cache_init(void) kmem_node_cache.cpu_slab[i] = c; #endif } + printk("\n"); #else init_kmem_cache_cpu(&kmem_cache_cache, &kmem_cache_cache.cpu_slab); #endif #ifdef CONFIG_NUMA - for_each_node_state(i, N_NORMAL_MEMORY) { + printk("SLQB: kmem_cache_init possible nodes: "); + for_each_node_state(i, N_POSSIBLE) { struct kmem_cache_node *n; + printk("%d ", i); + n = &per_cpu(kmem_cache_nodes, i); init_kmem_cache_node(&kmem_cache_cache, n); kmem_cache_cache.node_slab[i] = n; @@ -2906,6 +2928,7 @@ void __init kmem_cache_init(void) init_kmem_cache_node(&kmem_node_cache, n); kmem_node_cache.node_slab[i] = n; } + printk("\n"); #endif /* Caches that are not of the two-to-the-power-of size */ @@ -3040,12 +3063,17 @@ struct kmem_cache *kmem_cache_create(con if (!kmem_cache_create_ok(name, size, align, flags)) goto err; - s = kmem_cache_alloc(&kmem_cache_cache, GFP_KERNEL); + printk("SLQB: kmem_cache_create %s size=%d align=%d flags=%lx\n", name, (int)size, (int)align, flags); + + s = kmem_cache_alloc(&kmem_cache_cache, GFP_KERNEL|0x2000); if (!s) goto err; - if (kmem_cache_open(s, name, size, align, flags, ctor, 1)) + printk("SLQB: kmem_cache_create %s kmem_cache allocated\n", name); + if (kmem_cache_open(s, name, size, align, flags, ctor, 1)) { + printk("SLQB: kmem_cache_create %s kmem_cache opened\n", name); return s; + } kmem_cache_free(&kmem_cache_cache, s); -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
