Hello,
I'm having out of memory situations with my "low memory" VMs in KVM
under Fedora (Kernel 4.7, 4.8 and also before). They started to get
more and more sensitive to OOM. I recently found the following info:
https://marius.bloggt-in-braunschweig.de/2016/11/17/linuxkernel-4-74-8-und-der-oom-killer/
https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg113661.html
Therefore I tried the latest Fedora kernels:
4.9.0-0.rc6.git2.1.fc26.x86_64
But OOM situation is still very easy to reproduce:
1.) VM with 128-384MB under Fedora 25
2.) Having some processes run without any load (e.g. Apache)
3.) run an update with: dnf clean all; dnf update
4.) dnf python process get's killed
Please make the VM system working again in Kernel 4.9 and to use swap
again correctly.
Thnx.
Ciao,
Gerhard
