James Peach commented on MESOS-4828:
------------------------------------
Traditional disk quotas are applied to users or groups. XFS project quotas can
be used to implement per-directory quotas which is a much better fit for
constraining sandbox disk usage.

> Key: MESOS-4828
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-4828
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: isolation
> Reporter: James Peach
> Assignee: James Peach
>
> Implement a disk resource isolator using XFS project quotas. Compared to the
> {{posix/disk}} isolator, this doesn't need to scan the filesystem
> periodically, and applications receive a {{ENOSPC}} error instead of being
> summarily killed.
> This initial implementation only isolates sandbox directory resources, since
> isolation doesn't have any visibility into the the lifecycle of volumes,
> which is needed to assign and track project IDs.
> The build dependencies for this are XFS header (from xfsprogs-devel) and
> libblkid. We need libblkid or the equivalent to map filesystem paths to block
> devices in order to apply quota.
