Subject: Out of memory error
Date: Sat, 31 Jan 2009 21:17:01 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49844F4D.3010006@ii.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <m2ocxpzhs2.fsf@ssh.synack.fr>

Hello,

I get the following error messages from code I am working on. It works 
fine in userspace.

I suspect it may be due to the kernel's limited stack size as it uses a 
recursive algorithm. If this is the cause, how can I provide the (lsm) 
module with more memory? This is for a research project so it is ok if 
the solution is not quite kosher.

Thank you, any help will be appreciated. Please CC me in on any replies.

Cliffe.

The following is only an harmless informational message.
Unless you get a _continuous_flood_ of these messages it means
everything is working fine. Allocations from irqs cannot be
perfectly reliable and the kernel is designed to handle that.
