Hi All,
I'm using FC3 with 2.6.9 SMP Kernel. The root file system is EXT3 and
the volume is a XFS volume. While doing IO over a NFS v3 share, with
'watch df' running in parallel, kernel panic at SLAB memory is noticed.
When searching Internet, I also noticed that similar KP are reported at
free_block function; but could not find fix for this.
For me, this issue appears intermittently. It happens when doing IO over
60 NFS shares.
>From the KP message it appears to be an issue in Linux SLAB memory
module. Can anyone suggest a solution for this issue? Is this issue
already addressed in later kernel like 2.6.12?
