From 5c9cc7b7f8920944a413644e1c2ea23bfe655bcb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Felix Fietkau Date: Mon, 1 Aug 2016 14:52:13 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] base-files: increase vm.min_free_kbytes Network drivers typically allocate memory in atomic context. For that to be reliable, there needs to be enough free memory. Set the value heuristically based on the total amount of system RAM.
