How difficult would it be to track down such a big (again, ~10MB/hour) kernel memory leak?
|
Well, a sequential dump of /proc/slabinfo file might help with it.
Upd: What is needed first of all is the number of object for each slab name (these names are in the /proc/slabinfo file's header), preferably sorted 
This file contains statistics about what kind of internal kernel objects and how much of them are allocated. If we see some outrageous growth of some kind we'll be almost 100% sure that a leak takes place. Hopefully, we'll also know the origins of this leak
Thanks
