I barely remember there was a fix in the kernel related to this. I might be wrong, but it's worth checking on a latest rhel6 stable or testing kernel.


Indeed, I did a search on wiki.opevnz.org for vmstat and found this:

http://wiki.openvz.org/Download/kernel/rhel6/042stab057.1

[fairsched] vmstat floating point operation fixed: idle scaling has been enhanced once again (PCLIN-30773)

I guess that's what you are reporting. Please update your kernel.

    Since upgrading to a 2.6.32 kernel one of our users noticed that they
    are occasionally getting a Floating Point Exception when running
    vmstat:

    It doesn't happen every time as you can see here:

    I have been able to replicate this issue in other OS templates (theirs
    is Ubuntu 11.10, but I have replicated in Ubuntu, Fedora, Centos,
    etc...) running the same kernel and vzctl version.

    I can not replicate this issue on the node.

    Wondering if anyone else has run across this issue and/or knows what
    might be causing it.
