Re: [HTCondor-users] cgroups issue (cgroup invalid operation)

Ah, I donât know if it can help, but :

- I see memory page allocation failures in the syslogs since I activated the cgroups this week, for instance

attr: page allocation failure. order:4, mode:0xd0

Pid: 3124060, comm: attr Not tainted 2.6.32-xxxx #1

Salut Brian :]

Ah, yes, forgot to give that part of the config : itâs like what I could read in various guides :

[root@wn296 htcondor]# condor_config_val -startd -dump|grep -i cgroup

BASE_CGROUP = htcondor

CGROUP_MEMORY_LIMIT_POLICY = soft

Hi Frederic,

Whatâs the value of âBASE_CGROUPâ configuration variable? I ask because I would have thought the ProcLog would show something like âUnable to read cgroup /htcondor/ââ instead of âUnable to read cgroup htcondor/ââ. Maybe thereâs a base â/â that is getting automatically added in some places but not others?

Hi,

So, I deployed cgroups for htcondorâ. And Iâm having issues.

First : looks like I have to restart condor, not just condor_reconfig it. (right ?)

Without a service restart, I get logs about âcgroups not initializedâ.

But problem is that even after restarting condor, the ProcsLog shows these errors :

03/18/16 20:59:53 : Unable to read cgroup htcondor/condor_home_condor_slot1_2@wn296 cpuacct stats (ProcFamily 3278233): Cgroup invalid operation.

03/18/16 20:59:53 : Internal cgroup error when retrieving CPU statistics: Cgroup invalid operation

03/18/16 20:59:53 : Unable to read cgroup htcondor/condor_home_condor_slot1_2@wn296 memory stats (ProcFamily 3278233): 50016 No such file or directory.

I am deploying cgroups so that memory accounting (RSS) doesnât double-tripple count stuff, which in the end is causing the jobs to be killed after they are reported as consuming more memory than requested.

Iâm wondering how to fix this ?

To answer coming questions :

-          Yes, cgconfig is running, and cgroups are mounted (but not visible with the mount command â sl6x/sl6.7 here) :

[root@wn296 htcondor]# service cgconfig status

Running

[root@wn296 htcondor]# grep cgroup /proc/mounts

cgroup /cgroup/cpu cgroup rw,relatime,cpu 0 0

cgroup /cgroup/cpuset cgroup rw,relatime,cpuset 0 0

cgroup /cgroup/cpuacct cgroup rw,relatime,cpuacct 0 0

cgroup /cgroup/devices cgroup rw,relatime,devices 0 0

cgroup /cgroup/memory cgroup rw,relatime,memory 0 0

cgroup /cgroup/freezer cgroup rw,relatime,freezer 0 0

cgroup /cgroup/net_cls cgroup rw,relatime,net_cls 0 0

cgroup /cgroup/blkio cgroup rw,relatime,blkio 0 0

-          Yes, I see htcondor subdirectories, and I even see PIDs in the subdirectories tasks files :

[root@wn296 htcondor]# wc -l /cgroup/memory/htcondor/condor_home_condor_slot1_*/tasks|sed -r -e 's%(wn...).*/%\1/%'

0 /cgroup/memory/htcondor/condor_home_condor_slot1_10@wn296/tasks

0 /cgroup/memory/htcondor/condor_home_condor_slot1_9@wn296/tasks

72 total

-          Cgroups config :

[root@wn296 htcondor]# cat /etc/cgconfig.{conf,d/htcondor.conf}

# This file is being maintained by Puppet.

# DO NOT EDIT

mount {

      cpu     = /cgroup/cpu;

      cpuset = /cgroup/cpuset;

      cpuacct = /cgroup/cpuacct;

      devices = /cgroup/devices;

      memory = /cgroup/memory;

      freezer = /cgroup/freezer;

      net_cls = /cgroup/net_cls;

      blkio   = /cgroup/blkio;

}

group htcondor {

      cpu {}

      cpuacct {}

      memory {}

      freezer {}

      blkio {}

}

-          And condor version : 8.4.3-2

The problem I have is that I have jobs submitted (not by me) with Memory requirements and that these jobs are still killed because of the RSS approximative accounting without cgroups â and for now, the killing is still going on :â(

Any ideas about whatâs wrong, and better, how to fix ? I admin Iâm very new to cgroups, so it might be that Iâm mistaken somewhereâ

Thanks

Frederic
