Subject: Allocation failure of ring buffer for trace
Date: Mon, 13 Nov 2017 12:48:36 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <9631b871-99cc-82bb-363f-9d429b56f5b9@gmail.com> (raw)
When using trace_buf_size= boot option, memory allocation of ring buffer
for trace fails as follows:

[ ] failed to allocate ring buffer on CPU 155
In my server, there are 384 CPUs, 512 GB memory and 8 nodes. And
"trace_buf_size=100M" is set.
When using trace_buf_size=100M, kernel allocates 100 MB memory
per CPU before calling free_are_init_core(). Kernel tries to
allocates 38.4GB (100 MB * 384 CPU) memory. But available memory
at this time is about 16GB (2 GB * 8 nodes) due to the following commit:
3a80a7fa7989 ("mm: meminit: initialise a subset of struct pages
if CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is set")
So allocation failure occurs.
Thanks,
Yasuaki Ishimatsu
