I am still seeing this issue with libvirt 1.1.1-0ubuntu8, although it
has only (just) happened once after several months of no problems.
VM (called london) has:
<domain type="kvm">
...
<memory unit='KiB'>1024000</memory>
<currentMemory unit='KiB'>1024000</currentMemory>
...
</domain>
and "virsh memtune london" gives:
hard_limit : 1992192
soft_limit : unlimited
swap_hard_limit: unlimited
There is no swap on the host and plenty of RAM available - from top:
KiB Mem: 32896936 total, 23104716 used, 9792220 free, 10520 buffers
KiB Swap: 0 total, 0 used, 0 free, 4305340 cached

yet I get this:

Furthermore I am unable to use the workaround suggested up the equivalent
Redhat bug report (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=891653) of
increasing the cgroup limit with memtune:
# virsh memtune london
hard_limit : 1992192
soft_limit : unlimited
swap_hard_limit: unlimited
# virsh memtune london --hard-limit=4096000
error: Unable to change memory parameters
error: invalid argument: memory hard_limit tunable value must be lower than
swap_hard_limit
# virsh memtune london --hard-limit=4096000 --swap-hard-limit 4096000
error: Unable to change memory parameters
error: unable to set memory swap_hard_limit tunable: Operation not permitted
