commit 068a17a5805dfbca4bbf03e664ca6b19709cc7a8 Author: Mark Rutland [off-list ref] Date: Mon Jan 25 11:45:12 2016 +0000 arm64: mm: create new fine-grained mappings at boot Setup: ARMv8, Cavium ThunderX, 48Cores 64G ram. linux config: defconfig + 16k page size. Observations: a) During linux boot I see some oom messages http://pastebin.com/8jSMFhqf b) cat /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 66613760 kB MemFree: 307328 kB MemAvailable: 22416 kB Available memory is very less compared to total. c) With 64K pagesize MemTotal: 66831552 kB MemFree: 3541184 kB MemAvailable: 3298752 kB So it seems there is some issue with 16k only. Need some inputs how to fix this Regards, Manish Jaggi
