After simple bash fork bombing (about 200 forks) on my UP Celeron/96MB I get quite a lot %u-allocations failed, but only when swap is turned off. When it's turned on, processes are still forking for

This is perfectly normal behaviour: 1) on your system, you have no process limit configured for yourself so you can start processes until all resources (memory, file descriptors, ...) are used 2) whe

Fair enough. So it needs a handbrake in case of a emergency? The box at work deadlocks or crashes. I can hardly call that normal operational behaviour. I have a Dell PE 2500 (Serverworks LE) with 2GB

Ohh duh, IIRC there are a bunch of highmem bugs in -linus which are fixed in -ac. Can you reproduce the bug with an -ac kernel ? regards, Rik -- DMCA, SSSCA, W3C? Who cares? http://thefreeworld.net/

Fitting XFS onto a -ac kernel should be fun :-( I will try this over the weekend or get a redhat kernel going which is also -ac based. That would come in handy for other people using XFS since a lot

Its not that that simple - I tried before I got dragged kicking and screaming back into some Irix stuff. Just running mongo on ext2 on a HIGHMEM ac kernel should show if things are better there - si

I don't have a HIGHMEM box without XFS filesystems. So i have to merge both -ac and the xfs tree to test it. I can reformat the box ofcourse but that would mean next week. If I can win a day and spar

I was refering to the mundane load of mongo.pl with 5 processes. Something the systems should withstand. If you have more then 10GB of database to access you would want it to work. I am not talking a

No, it's not normal. It is long-standing bug - I think from 2.2 kernels. You know that without swap and with certain memory allocation strategy (when process in a loop allocates one anonymous page,

Please send patches to get rid of the buddy allocator while still making it possible to allocate contiguous chunks of memory. If you have any idea on how to fix things, this would be a good time to l

Make larger vmalloc space :-) Virtual memory costs very little. Besides 64M / 8k = 8192 - so it runs out at 8192 processes. Of course vmalloc space can overflow - but it overflows only when the machi

vmalloc space is also much worse for tlb usage when the main kernel mapping uses large hardware ptes. Ingo and davem pointed this out to me recently when I wanted to allocate the pagecache hash usin

It uses vmalloc only when __GFP_VMALLOC flag is given - and so it is expected to not use __GFP_VMALLOC flag in IRQ. NOTE: no allocations in IRQ are safe. Not only high-order ones. Allocation in IRQ
