This bug is present from kernel 5.14. # free -m total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 15663 5998 8936 155 728 9213 Swap: 0 0 0 Using ps the sum of RSS memory does not adds up: it shows less than 1GiB used: # ps aux | awk '{sum+=$6} END {print sum / 1024}' 944.879 By running modprobe -r irdma nearly 5,5GB of memory is freed. The only workaround to this bug is blacklisting irdma module so i40e is loaded without bringing up irdma.
