'vmap allocation for size %lu failed: use vmalloc=<size> to increase size' The above warning is seen in the kernel functionality for allocation of the restricted virtual memory range till exhaustion. This message is misleading because 'vmalloc=' is supported on arm32, x86 platforms and is not a valid kernel parameter on a number of other platforms (in particular its not supported on arm64, alpha, loongarch, arc, csky, hexagon, microblaze, mips, nios2, openrisc, parisc, m64k, powerpc, riscv, sh, um, xtensa, s390, sparc). With the update, the output gets modified to include the function parameters along with the start and end of the virtual memory range allowed. The warning message after fix on kernel version 6.10.0-rc1+: vmalloc_node_range for size 33619968 failed: Address range restricted between 0xffff800082640000 - 0xffff800084650000 Backtrace with the misleading error message: vmap allocation for size 33619968 failed: use vmalloc=<size> to increase size insmod: vmalloc error: size 33554432, vm_struct allocation failed, mode:0xcc0(GFP_KERNEL), nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0 CPU: 46 PID: 1977 Comm: insmod Tainted: G E 6.10.0-rc1+ #79 Hardware name: INGRASYS Yushan Server iSystem TEMP-S000141176+10/Yushan Motherboard, BIOS 2.10.20230517 (SCP: xxx) yyyy/mm/dd Call trace: dump_backtrace+0xa0/0x128 show_stack+0x20/0x38 dump_stack_lvl+0x78/0x90 dump_stack+0x18/0x28 warn_alloc+0x12c/0x1b8 __vmalloc_node_range_noprof+0x28c/0x7e0 custom_init+0xb4/0xfff8 [test_driver] do_one_initcall+0x60/0x290 do_init_module+0x68/0x250 load_module+0x236c/0x2428 init_module_from_file+0x8c/0xd8 __arm64_sys_finit_module+0x1b4/0x388 invoke_syscall+0x78/0x108 el0_svc_common.constprop.0+0x48/0xf0 do_el0_svc+0x24/0x38 el0_svc+0x3c/0x130 el0t_64_sync_handler+0x100/0x130 el0t_64_sync+0x190/0x198 [Shubhang@os.amperecomputing.com: v5] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/CH2PR01MB5894B0182EA0B28DF2EFB916F5C72@CH2PR01MB5894.prod.exchangelabs.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/MN2PR01MB59025CC02D1D29516527A693F5C62@MN2PR01MB5902.prod.exchangelabs.com Signed-off-by: Shubhang Kaushik <shubhang@os.amperecomputing.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Lameter (Ampere) <cl@linux.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Guo Ren <guoren@kernel.org> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) <urezki@gmail.com> Cc: Xiongwei Song <xiongwei.song@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
