client: setting empty cpu cgroup is broken #11933
Comments

This PR tweaks the TestCpusetManager_AddAlloc unit test to not break when being run on a machine using cgroupsv2. The behavior of writing an empty cpuset.cpu changes in cgroupv2, where such a group now inherits the value of its parent group, rather than remaining empty. The test in question was written such that a task would consume all available cores shared on an alloc, causing the empty set to be written to the shared group, which works fine on cgroupsv1 but breaks on cgroupsv2. By adjusting the test to consume only 1 core instead of all cores, it no longer triggers that edge case. The actual fix for the new cgroupsv2 behavior will be in #11933
Turns out this is a duplicate of #11289 |

This PR introduces support for using Nomad on systems with cgroups v2 [1] enabled as the cgroups controller mounted on /sys/fs/cgroups. Newer Linux distros like Ubuntu 21.10 are shipping with cgroups v2 only, causing problems for Nomad users. Nomad mostly "just works" with cgroups v2 due to the indirection via libcontainer, but not so for managing cpuset cgroups. Before, Nomad has been making use of a feature in v1 where a PID could be a member of more than one cgroup. In v2 this is no longer possible, and so the logic around computing cpuset values must be modified. When Nomad detects v2, it manages cpuset values in-process, rather than making use of cgroup heirarchy inheritence via shared/reserved parents. Nomad will only activate the v2 logic when it detects cgroups2 is mounted at /sys/fs/cgroups. This means on systems running in hybrid mode with cgroups2 mounted at /sys/fs/cgroups/unified (as is typical) Nomad will continue to use the v1 logic, and should operate as before. Systems that do not support cgroups v2 are also not affected. When v2 is activated, Nomad will create a parent called nomad.slice (unless otherwise configured in Client conifg), and create cgroups for tasks using naming convention <allocID>-<task>.scope. These follow the naming convention set by systemd and also used by Docker when cgroups v2 is detected. Client nodes now export a new fingerprint attribute, unique.cgroups.version which will be set to "v1" or "v2" to indicate the cgroups regime in use by Nomad. The new cpuset management strategy fixes #11705, where docker tasks that spawned processes on startup would "leak". In cgroups v2, the PIDs are started in the cgroup they will always live in, and thus the cause of the leak is eliminated.

I'm going to lock this issue because it has been closed for 120 days ⏳. This helps our maintainers find and focus on the active issues. |
Somewhere between the upgrade to
runc v1.0.3
and testing onubuntu 20.04
, cpuset management got broken.I notice that by manually setting value written to the
shared/cpuset.cpus
to a space character" "
instead of empty string""
, it works.But I don't understand why. The implementation of
fscommon.WriteFile
changed significantly fromrunc v1.0.0-rc92
torunc v1.0.0-rc93
, but AFAICT this feature was introduced with the later version.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
