[Bug 1246216] Re: perf samples too long (2519 > 2500), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 50000

 

Since todays kernel update (3.13.0-46.76 -> 3.13.0-46.77) I also see
this message in my kern.log  It has not been there before and I'm just
wondering what will happen if this continues as the "too long" value
seems to be continiously rising and the sample rate is being lowered

Mar  3 07:14:57 sigma kernel: [    9.748740] NFSD: starting 90-second grace period (net ffffffff81cdaa00)

Mar  3 07:23:11 sigma kernel: [  507.343615] perf samples too long (5025 > 5000), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 25000
Mar  3 08:07:24 sigma kernel: [ 3159.511565] perf samples too long (10036 > 10000), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 12500

Happens on a KVM based Ubuntu 14.04 with 12GB RAM and 4 Cores. Also
another problem is that IPv6 is not working any more during bootup after
todays kernel update thus nginx can not bind to the IPv6 address given
in the configuration and refuses to start up. Kernels should be tested
more before releasing these updates...
