-----------------------------------------

Hi [~geynard],
Sorry to hear you too faced the same problem, 
what we did is we have a configuration to optionally opt for cpuset based 
approach if we face issues like this. And suppose its 16 core machine and we 
configured 75% of cpu can be used for YARN, then we try to configure 12 (we try 
to round it off to lower value if the configurations doesnt match) cores for 
YARN in the CPU  cgroup subsystem. So yarn's containers will be ensured to run 
only on the first 12 cores of the system and remaining 4 will be at the 
system's disposal for other processes. *This approach ensures CPU is isolated 
with other processes but not among the yarn's containers.*

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: nodemanager
>    Affects Versions: 2.7.1

> With YARN-2440 and YARN-2531, we have seen some kernel panics happening under 
> heavy pressure. Even with YARN-2809, it still panics.
> We are using CentOS 6.5, hadoop 2.5.0-cdh5.2.0 with the above patches. I 
> guess the latest version also has the same issue.
