The output for the failing allocations when you disabling debugging. For that I would think that you need remove(!) the slub_debug statement on the kernel command line. You can verify that debug is off by inspecting the values in /sys/kernel/slab/<yourcache>/<debug option> > But it was still order 4 when booted with slub_debug=O, which surprised me. > And that surprises you too? If so, then we ought to dig into it further. No it does no longer. I dont think slub_debug=O does disable debugging (frankly I am not sure what it does). Please do not specify any debug options.
