It looks like this is because it wants to allocate 2**5 contiguous pages, which is 128kB of contiguous kernel memory. > <4>[53906.578855] NetworkManager: page allocation failure. order:5, mode:0x1024 > <4>[53906.578855] Pid: 2645, comm: NetworkManager Tainted: G W > 2.6.26-rc5 #33 > <4>[53906.578855] > <4>[53906.578855] Call Trace: > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff81092c70>] __alloc_pages_internal+0x460/0x590 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffffa01a87f8>] ? > :iwl3945:iwl3945_hw_tx_queue_init+0x38/0x1a0 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff81092dbb>] __alloc_pages+0xb/0x10 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff81011c26>] dma_alloc_pages+0x26/0x30 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff81011cf3>] dma_alloc_coherent+0xc3/0x2a0 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffffa01a73c3>] > :iwl3945:iwl3945_tx_queue_init+0x63/0x1e0 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffffa01aa06e>] :iwl3945:iwl3945_hw_nic_init+0x8de/0x940 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffffa019de01>] :iwl3945:__iwl3945_up+0x91/0x640 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffffa019e968>] :iwl3945:iwl3945_mac_start+0x568/0x790 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff8128a67d>] ? __nla_put+0x2d/0x40 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff8128a633>] ? __nla_reserve+0x53/0x70 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff8128a67d>] ? __nla_put+0x2d/0x40 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffffa0166def>] :mac80211:ieee80211_open+0x13f/0x590 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff81273b48>] ? dev_set_rx_mode+0x48/0x60 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff81275b99>] dev_open+0x89/0xf0 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff812753c1>] dev_change_flags+0xa1/0x1e0 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff812730b9>] ? dev_get_by_index+0x19/0x80 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff8127e59c>] do_setlink+0x20c/0x3a0 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff812f5cc0>] ? _read_unlock+0x30/0x60 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff8127e83d>] rtnl_setlink+0x10d/0x150 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff8127fa2d>] rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x18d/0x240 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff8127f8a0>] ? rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x0/0x240 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff8128a3e9>] netlink_rcv_skb+0x89/0xb0 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff8127f889>] rtnetlink_rcv+0x29/0x40 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff81289e05>] netlink_unicast+0x2d5/0x2f0 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff8126e38e>] ? __alloc_skb+0x6e/0x150 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff8128a024>] netlink_sendmsg+0x204/0x300 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff812f5cc0>] ? _read_unlock+0x30/0x60 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff81265ca7>] sock_sendmsg+0x127/0x140 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff81265b09>] ? sock_recvmsg+0x139/0x150 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff810529d0>] ? autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x40 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff812f5e70>] ? _spin_unlock+0x30/0x60 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff8117bb4a>] ? __up_read+0x2a/0xb0 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff81266a47>] ? move_addr_to_kernel+0x57/0x60 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff8126f39c>] ? verify_iovec+0x3c/0xd0 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff81265e49>] sys_sendmsg+0x189/0x320 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff81266b4d>] ? sys_sendto+0xfd/0x120 > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff812f5759>] ? trace_hardirqs_on_thunk+0x35/0x3a > <4>[53906.578855] [<ffffffff8100c50b>] system_call_after_swapgs+0x7b/0x80 > <4>[53906.578855] > <6>[53906.578855] Mem-info: > <4>[53906.578855] DMA per-cpu: > <4>[53906.578855] CPU 0: hi: 0, btch: 1 usd: 0 > <4>[53906.578855] CPU 1: hi: 0, btch: 1 usd: 0 > <4>[53906.578855] DMA32 per-cpu: > <4>[53906.578855] CPU 0: hi: 186, btch: 31 usd: 0 > <4>[53906.578855] CPU 1: hi: 186, btch: 31 usd: 0 > <4>[53906.578855] Active:231839 inactive:178871 dirty:65 writeback:0 unstable:0 > <4>[53906.578855] free:5997 slab:45072 mapped:27835 pagetables:7405 bounce:0 > <4>[53906.578855] DMA free:7896kB min:40kB low:48kB high:60kB > active:308kB inactive:0kB present:15176kB pages_scanned:0 > all_unreclaimable? no > <4>[53906.578855] lowmem_reserve[]: 0 1959 1959 1959 > <4>[53906.578855] DMA32 free:16092kB min:5640kB low:7048kB high:8460kB > active:927048kB inactive:715484kB present:2006684kB pages_scanned:0 > all_unreclaimable? no > <4>[53906.578855] lowmem_reserve[]: 0 0 0 0 > <4>[53906.578855] DMA: 86*4kB 112*8kB 148*16kB 38*32kB 0*64kB 0*128kB > 0*256kB 0*512kB 1*1024kB 1*2048kB 0*4096kB = 7896kB > <4>[53906.578855] DMA32: 2690*4kB 369*8kB 56*16kB 30*32kB 6*64kB > 1*128kB 0*256kB 0*512kB 0*1024kB 0*2048kB 0*4096kB = 16080kB As you can see, the 128kB free areas have been pretty much exhausted and there is still a good amount of free memory. I am not sure why this last 128kB area was not allocated, but lets face it - it would have blown up the next allocation anyway. Doing such a large allocation from a driver is probably not the best idea. -- All rights reversed. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
