our environment also seeing the leak in xcp-ng 8.1 hosts. At first I doubled the amount of memory allocated to the control domain from 4G to 8G and now 30 something days later it ran out of ram again... this is the 3rd time the hosts (4) run of memory. This is really causing us issues.

@MrMike do you have a ticket open on our side?
We are continuing to gather clues while also releasing 8.2 LTS. It should be more straightforward as soon we got this release done (more time to work on this). Obviously, support ticket are worked with the highest priority we can.
-
@olivierlambert I don't have a ticket because we don't have paid support for xcp-ng
-
Understood. We'll keep everyone posted here on our investigation.

Today another customer called:
He had a host (pool master) with 16GB Dom0 mem and uptime of 119 days.
Currently all my affected Systems were using megaraid_sas and iscsi and 10g intel nics.
megaraid_sas is found in @MrMike and @inaki-martinez mods too.

@dave can you open a ticket please? So we can also take a look remotely via a support tunnel.
-
We also have 10GbE Intel interfaces on the affected servers, not using iscsi yet on these servers.
So I think the comon factors right now would be the sas megaraid and 10GbE Intel nics?
-
We also have the same setup, running on affected hosts with iSCSI pool devices connected

We have a pro-support user who also is affected.
ixgbeis present but nomegaraid_sas.If (and only if) the leak cause is common to everyone, then
ixgbewould then be the main suspect. -
-
@olivierlambert The servers (2) I am seeing the memory leaks are used exclusively for network intensive applications. they route and tunnel many (100+) tunnels.
Other systems I have with similar host configuration are not seeing any increased domain memory usage.
-
So, I checked the other hosts in my environment that run the same types of VMs and also have the same version of xcp-ng.
Hosts that are not seeing this memory leak have BCM5720 1GbE interfaces. They are not as heavily used so I'm not sure if the leak only occurs if usage is very high or using a specific feature/ function in that driver.
-
So, @r1 has prepared a
kernelRPM for XCP-ng 8.1 that enables kmemleak. If anyone wants to give it a try (on XCP-ng 8.1 only), you can install it with:yum install http://koji.xcp-ng.org/kojifiles/work/tasks/7624/17624/kernel-4.19.19-6.0.12.1.1.kmemleak.xcpng8.1.x86_64.rpm rebootYou can revert to the main kernel with:
# yum downgrade won't work for the kernel because it's a protected package, so let's use rpm yumdownloader rpm -Uv --oldpackage name-of-file.rpm rebootThere will be some performance impact that I'm not able to quantify and I'm not yet able to tell you how to use it to debug memory leaks, but there's plenty of documentation on the internet about kmemleak.

-
FYI : On one host that has the problem I only have 1 Debian VM that does only one thing : netdata. It is a netdata that get flows from other netdata and that is polled by a prometheus server (which is on another host).
-
As soon as I stopped the last VM on the host, there is no more memleak.
