Date: Sat, 27 Sep 2014 16:44:22 -0700 (PDT) From: Eric Wheeler <nevdev@...ts.ewheeler.net> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org cc: rmody@...cade.com Subject: bna alloc_pages() order 2 failure in bnad.c bnad_rxq_refill_page() Hello all, We're using the 10gbe bna card and sometimes we get pages and pages of alloc_pages() failure backtraces like below. (The maintainer rmody@...cade.com does not appear to have an active email at brocade, but cc'ing again just in case.) It looks like bnad_rxq_refill_page() in bnad.c is allocating for the receive queue but fails. We've already tried bumping vm.min_free_kbytes and vm.zone_reclaim_mode but it doesn't appear to help. Suggestions? Would it be appropriate to convert alloc_pages() to a mempool implementation? -Eric [135367.300669] swapper/5: page allocation failure: order:2, mode:0x4020 [135367.300903] CPU: 5 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/5 Tainted: GF O 3.14.18 #1 [135367.301137] Hardware name: Supermicro X9SCL/X9SCM/X9SCL/X9SCM, BIOS 2.0c 10/17/2013 [135367.301557] 0000000000000002 ffff88082fd43a78 ffffffff8159e704 0000000000000010 [135367.301986] 0000000000004020 ffff88082fd43b08 ffffffff8113b17b 0000000200000000 [135367.302417] 0000000000000000 00000000fffffffc 0000000000000004 0000003000000000 [135367.302858] Call Trace: [135367.303077] <IRQ> [<ffffffff8159e704>] dump_stack+0x49/0x5d [135367.303310] [<ffffffff8113b17b>] warn_alloc_failed+0xeb/0x150 [135367.303536] [<ffffffff8113e2f0>] __alloc_pages_slowpath+0x4a0/0x7e0 [135367.303769] [<ffffffff8113e8e2>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x2b2/0x2c0 [135367.303996] [<ffffffff81181232>] alloc_pages_current+0xb2/0x170 [135367.304226] [<ffffffffa0239cb4>] bnad_rxq_refill_page+0x154/0x1e0 [bna] <--- [135367.304459] [<ffffffffa023c282>] bnad_cq_process+0x462/0x840 [bna] [135367.304921] [<ffffffffa023c6af>] bnad_napi_poll_rx+0x4f/0xc0 [bna] [135367.305144] [<ffffffff814dcf4c>] net_rx_action+0xfc/0x280 [135367.305364] [<ffffffff8105ba83>] __do_softirq+0xf3/0x2c0 [135367.305589] [<ffffffff8105bd5d>] irq_exit+0xbd/0xd0 [135367.305811] [<ffffffff815ae697>] do_IRQ+0x67/0x110 [135367.306036] [<ffffffff815a39ad>] common_interrupt+0x6d/0x6d [135367.306261] <EOI> [<ffffffff81486275>] ? cpuidle_enter_state+0x55/0xd0 [135367.306501] [<ffffffff8148626b>] ? cpuidle_enter_state+0x4b/0xd0 [135367.306719] [<ffffffff814863b7>] cpuidle_idle_call+0xc7/0x160 [135367.306938] [<ffffffff8100d73e>] arch_cpu_idle+0xe/0x30 [135367.307156] [<ffffffff810b187e>] cpu_idle_loop+0x9e/0x250 [135367.307376] [<ffffffff810b1aa0>] cpu_startup_entry+0x70/0x80 [135367.307598] [<ffffffff810350d2>] start_secondary+0xd2/0xe0 -- Eric Wheeler, President eWheeler, Inc. dba Global Linux Security 888-LINUX26 (888-546-8926) Fax: 503-716-3878 PO Box 25107 www.GlobalLinuxSecurity.pro Linux since 1996!
