The kmem enabled memory cgroup cannot be fully released unless all associated kmem_cache are "destroyed"
Issue
-
The kernel memory-limited memory-controlled cgroup cannot be released unless the root
kmem_cache
is explicitly destroyed. -
While attempting to create a cgroup under the memory resource controller the error
cannot allocate memory
is returned. For example:# mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/kubepods/burstable/podff4b0b02-34fd-49bb-8cfa-98a81316ab3c: cannot allocate memory
