Subject: 2.6.14-rc5 e1000 and page allocation failures.. still
Date: Sat, 22 Oct 2005 17:29:48 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <435A5AEC.8020807@home.se> (raw)

Im seeing a massive amount of page allocation failures with 2.6.14-rc5, 
and also earlier kernels, see "E1000 - page allocation failure - saga 
continues :(". Machine is a 1Ghz Athlon with 256MB RAM. Attached is 
example dmesg output. The stack traces come in many variants. Killing 
processes using RAM only seems to help temporarily. Ive also tried 
setting vm.min_free_kbytes=16384, which used to work pretty well, but 
this does not help (atleast not in the state the machine is currently 
in, without rebooting).

free currently gives:

              total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:        256520     239128      17392          0       5372      67500
-/+ buffers/cache:     166256      90264
Swap:       506036      21248     484788


I havent yet tried rebooting and using the vm.min_free_kbytes=16384 from 
scratch, but I think something with the default for this is wrong if it 
results in this many page allocation errors. The machine is serving 
files from an encrypted partition with reiserfs on it, and I obivously 
use the e1000 driver.
