Subject: __alloc_pages: 4-order allocation failed
Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2001 21:09:57 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.30.0104252059430.5253-100000@tiger> (raw)
Hi,
I am running linux-2.4.3 on a Dell dual PIII machine with 128M memory.
After the machine runs a while, dmesg shows,
__alloc_pages: 4-order allocation failed.
__alloc_pages: 3-order allocation failed.
__alloc_pages: 4-order allocation failed.
__alloc_pages: 4-order allocation failed.
__alloc_pages: 4-order allocation failed.
__alloc_pages: 4-order allocation failed.
and sometime the system will crash. I looked into the memory info,
there still has some free physical memory (20M) left and swap space is
almost not in use. (250M swap)
I didn't have this problem when I ran 2.4.0 (I even didn't see it on
2.4.2) could anybody tell me what's wrong or where should I look into this
problem?
Thanks,
Alex
