Subject: kmemleak failure (was Re: backing up ext4 fs, system unresponsive, thrashing like crazy even though swap is unused)
Date: Mon, 26 Nov 2012 00:41:55 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1353883315.22969.31.camel@soupermouf> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1353871800.22969.28.camel@soupermouf>

Hello,

I tried running a kmemleak and DEBUG_SLUB enabled kernel, but almost
within 5 minutes of starting the backup process, I got:

[  486.863124] kmemleak: Cannot allocate a kmemleak_object structure
[  486.887195] kmemleak: Automatic memory scanning thread ended
[  486.906604] kmemleak: Kernel memory leak detector disabled


Any ideas?

Thanks,
Dimitris
