Public bug reported:
Issue description: Memory demand increases very fast up to the maximum
available memory, call traces show up in /var/log/syslog, the VM becomes
unresponsive during the memory consumption, but it becomes responsive
right after stress-ng ends its execution, therefore we can say the issue
might be in the Dynamic Memory feature.
Platform: host independent
Distribution name and release:
- Bionic (4.15.0-10-generic)
- Linux Azure kernel (4.13.0-1012-azure)
Repro rate: 100%
VM configuration:
Kernel: 4.13.0-1012-azure
CPU: 8 cores
RAM: 2048 MB
Enable Dynamic Memory: Yes
Minimum RAM: 512 MB
Maximum RAM: 8192 MB
Memory buffer: 20%
Memory weight: 100%
Repro steps:
1. Start the VM with the above configuration.
2. Run stress-ng with the following parameters:
stress-ng -m 16 -vm-bytes 256M -t 200 --backoff 10000000
3. In less than 60 seconds the entire memory is consumed.
Additional info:
1. We also tested this on Xenial with default kernel and the issue does
not occur.
2. The call trace message from syslog can be seen below.
