--- Comment #3 from Michal Hocko
The module was loaded but not in use. For this reason it is not installed the last driver.
root@dmbsrv-12:45-~# lsmod | grep nvidia nvidia 10988100 0 root@dmbsrv-12:46-~# rmmod nvidia
But I have add in /etc/modprobe.d/99-local.conf "blacklist nvidia".
OK, Let's see if the problem triggers with nvidia out of the game. It is quite possible that it will as you say it wasn't in use but better be sure about that.
Should is usefull to make a
echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag
to avoid this problem?
This would effectively put whole THP out of game, including the crashing kernel thread. So it would be preferable at always to find out what is going on. Btw. could you install kdump package and enable it to get a crash dump when this happens. It would be much easier to debug the issue then. My suspicion is that we are just missing a bug fix. I will try to search for anything interesting in the meantime. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
