[Erhard Furtner]

Greetings!

On kernel v6.10-rc1 with CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG enabled I get this
everytime I stress the VMM with "stress-ng --vm 2 --vm-bytes 1500M --mmap 2
--mmap-bytes 1500M --page-in":

This is reproducible on my Thinkpad T60 (Intel Core Solo T1400, 3 GB RAM) and also on qemu (qemu-system-i386 -enable-kvm -cpu pentium3 -smp 2 -m 3G -drive file=Debian-VM_p3.img,if=virtio -append console='ttyS0 root=/dev/vda1' -kernel/boot/vmlinuz-6.10.0-rc1-P3-dirty).

It takes <3min to provoke the issue with stress-ng. Most of the time it happens in <30sec.

Kernel is patched with https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240527183007.1595037-1-cascardo@xxxxxxxxxx/T/ to avoid the CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG issue mentioned there.

Full dmesg and kernel .config attached.

Erhard
