I would doubt Saucy by now since it is almost EOL due to the reduced support of non-LTS releases. Trusty should get it through the normal upstream-stable path. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu.

It turns out we (you) were not the first ones running into it. The IBM mainframe guys (obviously) have the same need to potentially allow many CPUs. The upstream discussion is here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/21/251 So, while the change I made does work in this case, it can cause issues.

Alright the test kernel clearly fixed the issue. My gut tells me that there might be some memory leak also at play with the non patched version, but I don't know kernel code well enough to analyze that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is

It looks like two things at play: 1. Something in the way the system is set up seems to the DMA/DMA32 pool under higher pressure 2. Reading /proc/stat ends up requesting a 64kB memory area (order-4) in the DMA32 pool on node0 While there are still two elements in the 64kB slot, they both are

This would be the proposed way of fixing the issue. I took a current 3.11 kernel version with the patch applied and prepared packages which can be found at http://people.canonical.com/~smb/lp1319244/ Please could you try how this works on your system and report back here with the results?
