page allocation failure - am I running out of memory?
- by mfriedman
Lately I've noticing entries like this one in the kern.log of one of my servers:
Feb 16 00:24:05 aramis kernel: swapper: page allocation failure. order:0, mode:0x20
This is what I'd like to know:
What exactly does that message mean?
Is my server running out of memory?
The swap usage is quite low (less than 10%), and so far I haven't noticed…
