Jun 05 21:03:37 everybody is actually playing with their arm-based devices today Jun 05 21:04:17 cwillu, saw your irc message, did you have any luck finding that oom defrag config option? Jun 05 21:05:17 sec Jun 05 21:05:24 not specifically for oom Jun 05 21:05:49 no rush. ;) Jun 05 21:05:53 it's a case of "Carey saw a random thing added in the latest kernel, and must have it" :p Jun 05 21:07:22 memory compaction Jun 05 21:07:29 well... if linus does do a rc2 today, it could be avaiable in the next rc2 build.. ;) Jun 05 21:08:51 CONFIG_COMPACTION Jun 05 21:09:21 relies on CONFIG_MIGRATION I believe, although I guess that'd get set automatically Jun 05 21:09:41 also, did you see my note about 2.6.34-l0? Jun 05 21:10:13 I respun my image against 2.6.34-l1 before I left work yesterday, logging in right now to see if it's suffering the same fate Jun 05 21:10:34 and it appears that it might Jun 05 21:11:31 the oom-killer thing? http://paste.pocoo.org/show/221947/ Jun 05 21:11:50 yep Jun 05 21:12:30 I'm seeing a very slow response over ssh, about a minute to get a login prompt, and 15 seconds or so to verify a password Jun 05 21:12:45 I've got a serial terminal hooked to it, which seems a bit more responsive Jun 05 21:12:47 very strange, i haven't hit that yet... how much are you loading your systems? Jun 05 21:13:23 sec, pulling up top over the serial link Jun 05 21:13:38 it's just firefox with a backend server, streaming data to the page Jun 05 21:13:55 what I see is basically a swapstorm (noting that I don't have any swap configured on the system) Jun 05 21:13:57 so then it shouldn't be too much.. Jun 05 21:14:17 there shouldn't be any io load to speak of Jun 05 21:14:31 okay, it's definitely an issue under l1 as well Jun 05 21:14:36 okay, that's the one difference i do have swap setup on my test ones.. Jun 05 21:14:40 top just came up finally, I'm seeing the same sort of symptoms Jun 05 21:14:53 also, it doesn't show up for the first hour or so Jun 05 21:15:30 I've got high wait% showing in top, with btrfs-endio-0 and kswapd0 showing Jun 05 21:15:31 and looking at irc, it shows there is memory left, but it's going nutz.. Jun 05 21:16:29 sorry, looking at irc? Jun 05 21:16:36 looking at yours you mean? Jun 05 21:16:45 sorry irc log from yesterday.. ;) i'll setup a quick btrfs and no swap rig, and let it run for an hour to see what happens.. Jun 05 21:17:14 6.85 load average :) Jun 05 21:17:20 oh, here's something Jun 05 21:17:24 Cpu(s): 10.1%us, 22.3%sy, 0.0%ni, 0.0%id, 67.3%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.3%si, 0.0%st Jun 05 21:17:26 that's way more.. Jun 05 21:17:29 top - 15:17:25 up 21:08, 2 users, load average: 6.95, 6.19, 5.06 Jun 05 21:17:36 Mem: 237068k total, 168120k used, 68948k free, 28k buffers Jun 05 21:17:37 Swap: 0k total, 0k used, 0k free, 22116k cached Jun 05 21:17:45 _lots_ of free memory Jun 05 21:18:03 yet it's stuck waiting for something.. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Jun 06 02:59:56 2010
