* rsync: page allocation stalls in kernel 4.9.10 to a VessRAID NAS @ 2017-02-27 21:36 Robert Kudyba 2017-02-28 14:15 ` Michal Hocko 0 siblings, 1 reply; 11+ messages in thread From: Robert Kudyba @ 2017-02-27 21:36 UTC (permalink / raw) To: linux-kernel This sounds very similar to David Arendt’s problem from December 2016 on 12/13 post numbered 529 in the URL with the title page allocation stall in kernel 4.9 when copying files from one btrfs hdd to another This happens about 2 hours after our daily rsnapshot/rsync cron job starts pretty much every time.

Only the page cache which might be pinned and not reclaimable from this context because this is GFP_NOFS request. It is not all that surprising the reclaim context fights to get some memory. There is a huge amount of the reclaimable slab which probably just makes a slow progress. That is not something completely surprsing on 32b system I am afraid. Btw. is the stall repeating with the increased time or it gets resolved eventually? -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

None that I am aware of. You might want to talk to FS guys, maybe they can figure out who is pinning file pages so that they cannot be reclaimed. They do not seem to be dirty or under writeback. It would be also interesting to see whether that is a regression. The warning is relatively new so you might have had this problem before just haven't noticed it. -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

There was a bug which could result in this fixed by b4536f0c829c ("mm, memcg: fix the active list aging for lowmem requests when memcg is enabled") which made it into the stable tree 4.9.5 but you have said that you are using 4.9.12 so you should already have it. So it seems that this pagecache is indeed activate based on the usage pattern. The rest of the report is rather messed up but I assume that you simply do not have contiguous memory in the lowmem.

This sounds very similar to David Arendt’s problem from December 2016 on 12/13 post numbered 529 in the URL with the title page allocation stall in kernel 4.9 when copying files from one btrfs hdd to another
This happens about 2 hours after our daily rsnapshot/rsync cron job starts pretty much every time. And I set these parameters in /etc/sysctl.conf on a Fedora 25 server:
net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling=0
net.ipv4.tcp_timestamps=0
net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle=0
vm.zone_reclaim_mode=1
vm.min_free_kbytes=131072
# write-cache, foreground/background flushing
vm.dirty_ratio = 3
# vm.dirty_background_ratio = 5 (% of RAM)
vm.dirty_background_ratio = 1
# make it 10 sec
vm.dirty_writeback_centisecs = 1000
