No, it did crashed in allocation code (you skipped one trace line): Jun 5 16:53:55 admin kernel: Call Trace: [__kmem_cache_alloc+107/304] [kmem_cache_grow+508/624] [__kmem_cache_alloc+125/304] +[get_mem_for_virtual_node+87/224] [fix_nodes+198/1008] And the EIP is in kmem_cache_alloc_batch, sounds like it tripped on bad pointer or something like this. So something is corrupting slab lists it seems.
