No buffer space available errors

2000-09-18 Thread Ben Smithurst

Does anyone have any clue what could cause errors like this?  I've
been seeing this sort of stuff since the SMPng commit, IIRC.  I'm sure
there's more information I should be giving, so just let me know what to
find. dmesg is at the end.

This looks an awful lot like something I was seeing during early
  testing while adding locking to the mbuf system. Try `netstat -m' to see
  how many mbuf clusters are allocated. I would guess that the system is
  unable to allocate clusters reliably. In my case, at the time, I had
  forgotten to change a pointer dereference to meet the new structure, and
  thus it just worked out that after allocating the initial amount of
  clusters, nothing more was possible to allocate. I haven't seen this
  problem after fixing my mistake, nor before introducing it. None of the
  work I mentionned has been committed at any point in time (yet), so the
  problem can only be similar, at best (in any case, a `netstat -m' should
  offer a clue).

Run 'netstat -m' when you encounter the problem and email me the results.

 On one out of 8 machines, I ran into this problem.  My network is running
 at 100BaseTX.  I noticed that ifconfig showed OACTIVE flag set and I

 it works okay.
 
 My guess is the autosense gets confused sometimes.

Doug, thanks for the tip, I'll give that a try as I haven't been forcing
either card to 10Mbit or TP connections.  I have added to the mystery
however and this is aggravatingly puzzling.

In my previous message I had mentioned that walking away fromt he console
for any length of time would cause the machine to generate the "No buffer
space" errors.  Since then I've turned off my screensaver (Matrix from
KDE) and the system has stabilized completely; well almost completely.  I
can still duplicate the buffer situation and I've still seen it occur when
doing fairly high bandwidth (for cable, not for ethernet) file transfers.
If I can manage to bring the xfer rate up to around 100K/sec total between
inbound and outbound I experience the "Out of buffer" messages within a
couple minutes.  netstat -m doesn't show anything unusual.  I am going to
try removing both NMBCLUSTERS and NBUF from my config and just use a
maxusers of 128 and see how that goes.
