Hmm, that corresponds to the ZONE_DMA32 size pretty nicely but that zone is hardly touched: Nov 30 02:53:56 server01 kernel: [ 818.241291] DMA32 free:2523636kB min:2672kB low:3340kB high:4008kB active_anon:0kB inactive_anon:0kB active_file:0kB inactive_file:0kB unevictable:0kB isolated(anon):0kB isolated(file):0kB present:2542248kB mlocked:0kB dirty:0kB writeback:0kB mapped:4kB shmem:0kB slab_reclaimable:0kB slab_unreclaimable:0kB kernel_stack:0kB pagetables:0kB unstable:0kB bounce:0kB writeback_tmp:0kB pages_scanned:0 all_unreclaimable? no DMA32 zone is usually fills up first 4G unless your HW remaps the rest of the memory above 4G or you have a numa machine and the rest of the memory is at other node. Could you post your memory map printed during the boot? (e820: BIOS-provided physical RAM map: and following lines) There is also ZONE_NORMAL which is also not used much Nov 30 02:53:56 server01 kernel: [ 818.242163] Normal free:6924716kB min:12512kB low:15640kB high:18768kB active_anon:1463128kB inactive_anon:2072kB active_file:1803964kB inactive_file:1072628kB unevictable:3924kB isolated(anon):0kB isolated(file):0kB present:11893760kB mlocked:3924kB dirty:1000kB writeback:776kB mapped:35656kB shmem:3828kB slab_reclaimable:202560kB slab_unreclaimable:50696kB kernel_stack:2944kB pagetables:158616kB unstable:0kB bounce:0kB writeback_tmp:0kB pages_scanned:0 all_unreclaimable? no You have mentioned that you are comounting with cpuset. If this happens to be a NUMA machine have you made the access to all nodes available? Also what does /proc/sys/vm/zone_reclaim_mode says? -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
