Package: procps Version: 1:3.2.1-2 Severity: normal hi,
here's what happens, and what I had to do to catch the errro msg: ~# slabtop -o 2>&1|less unrecognizable data in your slabinfo version 1.1 ^MFound an error in cache name at line dm io 0 0 36 0 0 1 : 0 0 0 0 0 ^Merror reading slabinfo! ESC(BESC)0ESC7ESC[?47hESC[1;24rESC[m^OESC[4lESC[24;1HESC[2JESC[?47lESC8^MESC> now, don't know wether the slabinfo here is really broken: ~# cat /proc/slabinfo slabinfo - version: 1.1 (statistics) kmem_cache 65 87 132 3 3 1 : 65 65 3 0 0 nfs_write_data 0 0 348 0 0 1 : 0 0 0 0 0 nfs_read_data 0 0 332 0 0 1 : 15 108 5 5 0 nfs_page 0 0 92 0 0 1 : 31 201 3 3 0 dm io 0 0 36 0 0 1 : 0 0 0 0 0 tcp_tw_bucket 0 0 128 0 0 1 : 2 5 4 4 0 tcp_bind_bucket 51 145 24 1 1 1 : 57 99 1 0 0 ... but I guess slabtop hiccups on the unexpected space in 'dm io' (dm-mod.o, devicemapper) - I'm running 2.4.26. But that may be another story, the problem is that slabtop clears the screen on exit, clearing also the error msg it's just printed. Perhaps the fix is a trivial exchange, first clear the screen, then print the error?... thanks -- paolo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
