FYI, we noticed the following commit: commit: 75dddef32514f7aa58930bde6a1263253bc3d4ba ("mm: ratelimit PFNs busy info message") https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master in testcase: vm-scalability with following parameters: runtime: 300s test: mmap-xread-seq-mt cpufreq_governor: performance test-description: The motivation behind this suite is to exercise functions and regions of the mm/ of the Linux kernel which are of interest to us. test-url: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/wfg/vm-scalability.git/ on test machine: 56 threads Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2695 v3 @ 2.30GHz with 256G memory caused below changes (please refer to attached dmesg/kmsg for entire log/backtrace): +----------------+------------+------------+ | | d507e2ebd2 | 75dddef325 | +----------------+------------+------------+ | boot_successes | 4 | 4 | +----------------+------------+------------+ kern :info : [ 16.830219] Freeing unused kernel memory: 48K kern :info : [ 16.835093] rodata_test: all tests were successful daemon:info : [ 16.844956] systemd[1]: RTC configured in localtime, applying delta of 480 minutes to system time. kern :info : [ 16.856164] ip_tables: (C) 2000-2006 Netfilter Core Team kern :info : [ 17.074275] ipmi message handler version 39.2 kern :err : [ 17.074553] ACPI Error: No handler for Region [SYSI] (ffff883fe28042d0) [IPMI] (20170531/evregion-166) kern :err : [ 17.074558] ACPI Error: Region IPMI (ID=7) has no handler (20170531/exfldio-299) kern :err : [ 17.074570] ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed \_SB.PMI0._GHL, AE_NOT_EXIST (20170531/psparse-550) kern :err : [ 17.074605] ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed \_SB.PMI0._PMC, AE_NOT_EXIST (20170531/psparse-550) kern :err : [ 17.074637] ACPI Exception: AE_NOT_EXIST, Evaluating _PMC (20170531/power_meter-755) kern :info : [ 17.128658] input: PC Speaker as /devices/platform/pcspkr/input/input2 kern :info : [ 17.137094] shpchp: Standard Hot Plug PCI Controller Driver version: 0.4 kern :info : [ 17.144771] ipmi device interface kern :info : [ 17.150805] ipmi_si: probing via SMBIOS To reproduce: git clone https://github.com/01org/lkp-tests.git cd lkp-tests bin/lkp install job.yaml # job file is attached in this email bin/lkp run job.yaml Thanks, Kernel Test Robot
