Title:
3.13: libvirtd: page allocation failure: order:4, mode:0x1040d0
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
[Impact]
* libvirtd is no longer able to open the vhost_net device. This causes the
guest VM to hang. This happens if memory becomes fragmented to the point where
vhost_net_open is not able to successfully kmalloc.
* Gratuitous stack trace.

* justification: cloud.
* The patches fix this issue by allowing vhost_net_open to use
vmalloc when kmalloc fails to find a sufficient page.
[Test Case]
* Fragment Kernel memory. Write to Nic from within a kvm guest that
uses a virtio nic.
[Regression Potential]
* Fix was implemented upstream in 3.15, and still exists.
* Testing TBD
