Date: Tue, 19 Feb 2008 12:00:58 +0100 From: "Bart Van Assche" <bart.vanassche@...il.com> To: "Linux Kernel Mailing List" <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Subject: SMP-related kernel memory leak Hello, I noticed that the amount of memory used by the Linux kernel steadily increases over time on SMP systems (x86 architecture, 32-bit kernel). This problem disappears when I add maxcpus=1 to the kernel command line. I have observed this behavior both on the 2.6.22.18 and 2.6.24.2 kernels. Did anyone notice anything similar ?
