page allocation failure, nvidia/dunst related

I have been experiencing nvidia related Xorg freezes that require a hard reboot. The computer is accessible through ssh after the freeze. This has happened for several months now across different versions of the nvidia driver and kernels. I thought it would go away with the latest updates to the nvidia drivers to support kernels 5.9. Is there anything that can be done about this? others have reported that this happens more often with high disk I/O usage. This may be what is really annoying me cause I run a geth node. This issue is forcing me to reboot several times a week. However, it seems that every single time this error is raised when activating dunst. Will try removing the notification service to see if this is actually the issue.

Here are some logs

$ pacman -Q nvidia linux dunst
nvidia 455.45.01-2
linux 5.9.10.arch1-1
dunst 1.5.0-1

Re: page allocation failure, nvidia/dunst related

Known issue with 455 series of drivers. https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/4 … /155250/55

There's a experimental patch for the current driver version that's supposed to help mitigate this, see https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 3#p1938113 for pointers on how to apply to the current nvidia-dkms package.

Thanks that looks like it!
