  "message": "slab: NUMA slab allocator migration bugfix\n\nNUMA slab allocator cpu migration bugfix\n\nThe NUMA slab allocator (specifically, cache_alloc_refill)\nis not refreshing its local copies of what cpu and what\nnuma node it is on, when it drops and reacquires the irq\nblock that it inherited from its caller.  As a result\nthose values become invalid if an attempt to migrate the\nprocess to another numa node occured while the irq block\nhad been dropped.\n\nThe solution is to make cache_alloc_refill reload these\nvariables whenever it drops and reacquires the irq block.\n\nThe error is very difficult to hit.  When it does occur,\none gets the following oops + stack traceback bits in\ncheck_spinlock_acquired:\n\n\tkernel BUG at mm/slab.c:2417\n\tcache_alloc_refill+0xe6\n\tkmem_cache_alloc+0xd0\n\t...\n\nThis patch was developed against 2.6.23, ported to and\ncompiled-tested only against 2.6.25-rc4.\n\nSigned-off-by: Joe Korty \u003cjoe.korty@ccur.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@sgi.com\u003e\n",
