From: Mike Marciniszyn <mike.marciniszyn@xxxxxxxxx> commit 3230f4a8d44e4a0bb7afea814b280b5129521f52 upstream. The following warning can happen when a memory shortage occurs during txreq allocation: [10220.939246] SLUB: Unable to allocate memory on node -1, gfp=0xa20(GFP_ATOMIC) [10220.939246] Hardware name: Intel Corporation S2600WT2R/S2600WT2R, BIOS SE5C610.86B.01.01.0018.C4.072020161249 07/20/2016 [10220.939247] cache: mnt_cache, object size: 384, buffer size: 384, default order: 2, min order: 0 [10220.939260] Workqueue: hfi0_0 _hfi1_do_send [hfi1] [10220.939261] node 0: slabs: 1026568, objs: 43115856, free: 0 [10220.939262] Call Trace: [10220.939262] node 1: slabs: 820872, objs: 34476624, free: 0 [10220.939263] dump_stack+0x5a/0x73 [10220.939265] warn_alloc+0x103/0x190 [10220.939267] ? wake_all_kswapds+0x54/0x8b [10220.939268] __alloc_pages_slowpath+0x86c/0xa2e [10220.939270] ? __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x2fe/0x320 [10220.939271] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x2fe/0x320 [10220.939273] new_slab+0x475/0x550 [10220.939275] ___slab_alloc+0x36c/0x520 [10220.939287] ? hfi1_make_rc_req+0x90/0x18b0 [hfi1] [10220.939299] ? __get_txreq+0x54/0x160 [hfi1] [10220.939310] ? hfi1_make_rc_req+0x90/0x18b0 [hfi1] [10220.939312] __slab_alloc+0x40/0x61 [10220.939323] ? hfi1_make_rc_req+0x90/0x18b0 [hfi1] [10220.939325] kmem_cache_alloc+0x181/0x1b0 [10220.939336] hfi1_make_rc_req+0x90/0x18b0 [hfi1] [10220.939348] ? hfi1_verbs_send_dma+0x386/0xa10 [hfi1] [10220.939359] ? find_prev_entry+0xb0/0xb0 [hfi1] [10220.939371] hfi1_do_send+0x1d9/0x3f0 [hfi1] [10220.939372] process_one_work+0x171/0x380 [10220.939374] worker_thread+0x49/0x3f0 [10220.939375] kthread+0xf8/0x130 [10220.939377] ? max_active_store+0x80/0x80 [10220.939378] ? kthread_bind+0x10/0x10 [10220.939379] ret_from_fork+0x35/0x40 [10220.939381] SLUB: Unable to allocate memory on node -1, gfp=0xa20(GFP_ATOMIC) The shortage is handled properly so the message isn't needed. Silence by adding the no warn option to the slab allocation.
