Following the format from REPORTING-BUGS please see the below information.
I unfortunately cannot subscribe to the list, but will follow the thread. I
have searched high and low, read a number of threads somewhat tangential to
this problem, and asked a few times in #kernelnewbies before I got to my
wits end and now will try here. I really appreciate any insight anyone has,
and will be happy to provide more information or additional tests
1. When doing moderate I/O on a 2.6.6 system the machine becomes unusable.
2. I found that with HIGHMEM support compiled into the kernel, when I did a
cp -vr /var /usr/tmp it would work fine until it got about halfway through the
large ldap.log file (approximately 500 megs) when the system would no longer
be able to fork new processes. Your existing shell would function, but
if you tried to run top, free, etc. it would hang. vmstat 1 would print
the first line, but never continue. I ran a million different kernel configs
to try and isolate things, and I thought I had it nailed down with passing
apic=off to the kernel at boot because the large logfile copy test would
pass, but when rsyncing maildirs tonight the same problem appeared. Early
in my tests I thought the problem was dm-crypt, but the problem existed
even when no encrypted filesystems were involved, and existed when I
removed dm-crypt support from the kernel. Disabling HIGHMEM support seems
to make the problem go away.
Machine requires a powercycle to get it back. Memory was memtested for over
24 hours. Machine is a HP netserver lh1000r with megaraid controller, no IDE.

Thanks for the bugreport. I'm going to file this in the Debian BTS
after I get the FPU fixes out. Could you send along a dmesg
(/var/log/dmesg on Debian) and /proc/meminfo and /proc/cpuinfo at some
point when you can log into the box? I'll also try to reproduce this.
Thanks.

I am not sure why this would be filed in the Debian BTS, yes the
underlying OS is Debian, but this is not a Debian Kernel, it is a
vanilla 2.6.6 kernel that I compiled by hand.
Please find attached the dmesg and the /proc/meminfo, the
/proc/cpuinfo was already included in the original email.

The debian kernel team is migrating Debian's 2.6 as close to mainline
as is possible within policy guidelines, so it'll be applicable to it
hopefully in the next 24 hours.

Okay, thanks. I'll do some testing of copying large files shortly.

Hello Micah,
Could you give more information on the Megaraid part of your setup ?
Are the i/o made on a disk/partition controlled by the megaraid ?
If no, does the same behavior occur on a plain scsi disk ?
If yes, what kind of RAID level do you use ? how many disks ?
Could you give megaraid firmware information as well as logical volume settings regarding
read,write and cache policy.
Also, is it a regression over previous kernels, like 2.6.5 or even earlier kernels ?
I've been using 2.6.3-mm3 for weeks now with DELL hardware and a megaraid controller
doing intensive i/o around the clock without any problems. The box has been just rock solid.
Thanks,
Philippe
