numatop segfaults on the 4.14 kernel
by Jirka Hladky
Hello,
we experience numatop segfaults on 4.14 kernel. On older kernels, numatop
runs just fine.
HW: DELL server with 4x E5-4627 v2 @ 3.30GHz CPU
We run NAS Parallel Benchmarks (OMP variant)
https://www.nas.nasa.gov/publications/npb.html
OMP_NUM_THREADS=4 NPB_sources/bin/ft.C.x
and in another terminal, we start numatop monitoring with
ulimit -c unlimited (to allow coredump)
echo "N" | numatop -d /tmp/numatop.txt >/dev/null 2>&1 &
In about every 5th run we are getting the segfault:
[37530.811419] numatop[46404]: segfault at 100000038 ip 0000000000405c54 sp

Please let me know how to proceed. I would really really appreciate if
somebody could look into it.
Thanks a lot!
