We noticed khugepaged taking up a good bit of CPU when the machine is in a bad state and found similar bugs reported recently e.g., <a href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=">879801</a>. Running "sync && /sbin/sysctl vm.drop_caches=3" cures the bad state(!), temporarily though... it locks up again after a while. I grepped some potentially relevant lines from /proc/vmstat while in a bad state. These are 10 seconds apart: compact_blocks_moved 558689782497 compact_pages_moved 249367966 compact_pagemigrate_failed 45361973 compact_stall 1006717 compact_fail 922930 compact_success 82339 thp_fault_alloc 1592298 thp_fault_fallback 1157130 thp_collapse_alloc 25907 thp_collapse_alloc_failed 3520 thp_split 4797 compact_blocks_moved 558713450361 compact_pages_moved 249368093 compact_pagemigrate_failed 45361995 compact_stall 1006719 compact_fail 922932 compact_success 82339 thp_fault_alloc 1592298 thp_fault_fallback 1157132 thp_collapse_alloc 25907 thp_collapse_alloc_failed 3520 thp_split 4797 Closing this bug as a dup for now. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 879801 *** |
