2018-03-09 08:09:20 Joseph Salisbury description We are seeing this on multiple servers after upgrading from previous 4.10 series HWE kernels to the new 4.13 HWE series. With the new kernel, free memory is continously decreasing at a high rate and the servers start swapping and finally OOMing services within days. With the 4.10 kernel, decrease of free memory is slower and stabilizes after a while. Latest kernel tested is linux-image-4.13.0-32-generic but the issue also affects older kernels from that series, tested back to linux-image-4.13.0-19-generic. No issue with linux-image-4.10.0-42-generic. The servers are running as OpenStack controller nodes using either Ocata or Pike UCA plus ceph. See attached graph for the memory behaviour. ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: linux-image-4.13.0-32-generic 4.13.0-32.35~16.04.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.13.0-32.35~16.04.1-generic 4.13.13 Uname: Linux 4.13.0-32-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.15 Architecture: amd64 Date: Fri Feb 9 09:45:50 2018 ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_US: TERM=screen PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.utf8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: linux-hwe UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) == SRU Justification == We are seeing this on multiple servers after upgrading from previous 4.10 series HWE kernels to the new 4.13 HWE series. With the new kernel, free memory is continously decreasing at a high rate and the servers start swapping and finally OOMing services within days.

Latest kernel tested is linux-image-4.13.0-32-generic but the issue also affects older kernels from that series, tested back to linux-image-4.13.0-19-generic. No issue with linux-image-4.10.0-42-generic. The servers are running as OpenStack controller nodes using either Ocata or Pike UCA plus ceph. See attached graph for the memory behaviour. == Fix == 2b9478ffc550("i40e: Fix memory leak related filter programming status") 62b4c6694dfd("i40e: Add programming descriptors to cleaned_count") == Regression Potential == Low. Limited to i40e and fix existing regression. == Test Case == A test kernel was built with these patches and tested by the original bug reporter. The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug.
