I had some trouble collecting debug o/p with this patch. Because of the number of printk's the machine was crawling during boot. It was difficult to read/collect the o/p. So i inserted a hack as follows such that slab_alloc_page prints only during the failure.(modprobe scsi-driver) + if (strcmp(current->comm, "modprobe")) + printk(KERN_INFO "%s: cpu=%d, cache_cpu=%p, cache_list=%p\n", __func__, cpu, c, l); Attached here is the boot log. Let me know if i can provide any other information.
