2.6.39-rc4+: oom-killer busy killing tasks

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

after the block layer regression[0] seemed to be fixed, the machine 
appeared to be running fine. But after putting some disk I/O to the system 
(PowerBook G4) it became unresponsive, I/O wait went up high and I could 
see that the OOM killer was killing processes. Logging in via SSH was 
sometimes possible, but the each session was killed shortly after, so I 
could not do much.

The box finally rebooted itself, the logfile recorded something xfs 
related in the first backtrace, hence I'm cc'ing the xfs list too:
