Normally kdump kernel(s) run under severe memory constraint with the basic idea being to save the crashdump vmcore reliably when the primary kernel panics/hangs. Currently the qed* ethernet driver ends up consuming a lot of memory in the kdump kernel, leading to kdump kernel panic when one tries to save the vmcore via ssh/nfs (thus utilizing the services of the underlying qed* network interfaces). An example OOM message log seen in the kdump kernel can be seen here [1], with crashkernel size reservation of 512M. Using tools like memstrack (see [2]), we can track the modules taking up the bulk of memory in the kdump kernel and organize the memory usage output as per 'highest allocator first'. An example log for the OOM case indicates that the qed* modules end up allocating approximately 216M memory, which is a large part of the total crashkernel size: dracut-pre-pivot[676]: ======== Report format module_summary: ======== dracut-pre-pivot[676]: Module qed using 149.6MB (2394 pages), peak allocation 149.6MB (2394 pages) dracut-pre-pivot[676]: Module qede using 65.3MB (1045 pages), peak allocation 65.3MB (1045 pages) This patch reduces the default RX and TX ring count from 1024 to 64 when running inside kdump kernel, which leads to a significant memory saving. An example log with the patch applied shows the reduced memory allocation in the kdump kernel: dracut-pre-pivot[674]: ======== Report format module_summary: ======== dracut-pre-pivot[674]: Module qed using 141.8MB (2268 pages), peak allocation 141.8MB (2268 pages) <..snip..> [dracut-pre-pivot[674]: Module qede using 4.8MB (76 pages), peak allocation 4.9MB (78 pages) Tested crashdump vmcore save via ssh/nfs protocol using underlying qed* network interface after applying this patch.
