I've also seen order-0 failures on 2.6.31.5: Note that this is with a one process hogging and mlocking memory and min_free_kbytes reduced to 100 to reproduce the problem more easily. I tried bisecting the issue, but in the end without memory pressure I can't reproduce it reliably and with the above mentioned pressure I get allocation failures even on 2.6.30.o Initially the issue was that the machine hangs after the allocation failure, but that seems to be a netconsole related issue, since I didn't get a hang on 2.6.31 compiled without netconsole. http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/11/1/66 http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/11/5/100 [ 375.398423] swapper: page allocation failure. order:0, mode:0x20 [ 375.398483] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.31.5-nokmem-tomodachi #3 [ 375.398519] Call Trace: [ 375.398566] [<c10395a8>] ?
