Who, mee? Nah :-) Rus reported this WARN while testing -rc1. > Looks like SLUB is buggy here.. does this fix it? @Rus: can you apply the patch below ontop of -rc1 and retest with the same BIOS settings and kernel .config you used to trigger the above? Don't hesitate to ask questions if you don't know how to apply patches, build kernels, etc. > --- > mm/slub.c | 14 +++++++------- > 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/mm/slub.c b/mm/slub.c > index fb2ef09..6b9e3f6 100644 > --- a/mm/slub.c > +++ b/mm/slub.c > @@ -1314,13 +1314,7 @@ static struct page *allocate_slab(struct kmem_cache *s, gfp_t flags, int node) > stat(s, ORDER_FALLBACK); > } > > - if (flags & __GFP_WAIT) > - local_irq_disable(); > - > - if (!page) > - return NULL; > - > - if (kmemcheck_enabled > + if (page && kmemcheck_enabled > && !(s->flags & (SLAB_NOTRACK | DEBUG_DEFAULT_FLAGS))) { > int pages = 1 << oo_order(oo); > > @@ -1336,6 +1330,12 @@ static struct page *allocate_slab(struct kmem_cache *s, gfp_t flags, int node) > kmemcheck_mark_unallocated_pages(page, pages); > } > > + if (flags & __GFP_WAIT) > + local_irq_disable(); > + > + if (!page) > + return NULL; > + > page->objects = oo_objects(oo); > mod_zone_page_state(page_zone(page), > (s->flags & SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT) ? > > Thanks. -- Regards/Gruss, Boris.
