I'm using CX5-LX device and have not seen any issues with it. Would it be possible to retest with kmemleak?Here is the device I used. Network controller: Mellanox Technologies MT27500 Family [ConnectX-3] The issue always can be reproduced with about 1000 time. Another thing is I found one strange phenomenon from the log: before the OOM occurred, most of the log are about "adding queue", and after the OOM occurred, most of the log are about "nvmet_rdma: freeing queue". seems the release work: "schedule_work(&queue->release_work);" not executed timely, not sure whether the OOM is caused by this reason.Sagi, The release function is placed in global workqueue. I'm not familiar with NVMe design and I don't know all the details, but maybe the proper way will be to create special workqueue with MEM_RECLAIM flag to ensure the progress?Hi, I was able to repro it in my lab with ConnectX3. added a dedicated workqueue with high priority but the bug still happens. if I add a "sleep 1" after echo 1quoted
/sys/block/nvme0n1/device/reset_controller the test pass. So there isno leak IMO, but the allocation process is much faster than the destruction of the resources. In the initiator we don't wait for RDMA_CM_EVENT_DISCONNECTED event after we call rdma_disconnect, and we try to connect immediatly again. maybe we need to slow down the storm of connect requests from the initiator somehow to let the target time to settle up. Max.Hi Sagi Let's use this mail loop to track the OOM issue. :) Thanks Yi
Hi Yi, I can't repro the OOM issue with 4.11-rc2 (don't know why actually). which kernel are you using ?
