Jason Lowe commented on YARN-8648:
----------------------------------
bq. Is it worth breaking cgroups parameters temporarily for docker to fix the
leak?
No, I was under the impression we would modify the docker runtime to port the
settings over for the container launch as we did internally for CPU shares.
However you're correct that anything calling ResourceHandler#updateContainer
won't have an effect until this is rightfully fixed, so we should probably
address this all at once to avoid regressions elsewhere when fixing the leak.
> Container cgroups are leaked when using docker

> Key: YARN-8648
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-8648
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Jim Brennan
> Assignee: Jim Brennan
> Priority: Major
> Labels: Docker
>
> When you run with docker and enable cgroups for cpu, docker creates cgroups
> for all resources on the system, not just for cpu. For instance, if the
> {{yarn.nodemanager.linux-container-executor.cgroups.hierarchy=/hadoop-yarn}},
> the nodemanager will create a cgroup for each container under
> {{/sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/hadoop-yarn}}. In the docker case, we pass this path
> via the {{--cgroup-parent}} command line argument. Docker then creates a
> cgroup for the docker container under that, for instance:
> {{/sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/hadoop-yarn/container_id/docker_container_id}}.
> When the container exits, docker cleans up the {{docker_container_id}}
> cgroup, and the nodemanager cleans up the {{container_id}} cgroup, All is
> good under {{/sys/fs/cgroup/hadoop-yarn}}.
> The problem is that docker also creates that same hierarchy under every
> resource under {{/sys/fs/cgroup}}. On the rhel7 system I am using, these
> are: blkio, cpuset, devices, freezer, hugetlb, memory, net_cls, net_prio,
> perf_event, and systemd. So for instance, docker creates
> {{/sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset/hadoop-yarn/container_id/docker_container_id}}, but
> it only cleans up the leaf cgroup {{docker_container_id}}. Nobody cleans up
> the {{container_id}} cgroups for these other resources. On one of our busy
> clusters, we found > 100,000 of these leaked cgroups.
> I found this in our 2.8-based version of hadoop, but I have been able to
> repro with current hadoop.
