Hi everybody,
tonight my dmesg was flooded with mesages like
vmscan: shrink_slab: ext4_es_scan+0x0/0x150 negative objects to delete nr=-2147483624
Is that an integer overflow happening in ext4?
It's the first time I see this message. Any help on how to debug/reprocude this
are appreciated. Please advice if you want me to investigate this.
Bestregards,
Marc Burkhardt

I haven't attempted to debug nor reproduce it, but what I can tell you
is that it does not not have anything to with ext4. I've seen similar
messages with a completely different slab, on 4.9.26:

I don't see any fixes/changes to mm/vmscan.c in newer 4.9-stable kernels
other than these ones which were already merged v4.9.14:
$ git shortlog v4.9..v4.9.30 -- mm/vmscan.c
Michal Hocko (3):
mm, memcg: fix the active list aging for lowmem requests when memcg is enabled
mm, vmscan: cleanup lru size claculations
mm, vmscan: consider eligible zones in get_scan_count
Shaohua Li (1):
mm/vmscan.c: set correct defer count for shrinker
Perhaps one of the above people or someone else in linux-mm recognizes this.
