Runc breaks pods when CPU requests aren’t multiples of 10

runc-breaks-pods-when-cpu-requests-aren’t-multiples-of-10

Description When using the systemd cgroup driver with a CPU limit of 4096m, pod creation fails intermittently because containerd non-deterministically calculates either 409600 or 410000 microseconds for the parent cgroup, while runc consistently calculates 410000 for child cgroups. When they mismatch, the Linux kernel rejects the child cgroup creation with “invalid argument”. Root Cause Investigation […]
