docker swarm容器内存限制不起作用

Question

I'm experimenting with forcing a container to use more memory than it's allowed but I can't get it to work. The container is part of a stack defined with docker compose and it's deployed to docker in swarm mode.

Docker is allowing the container to go way above the 50M limit I've set. I was expecting docker to kill the container, throw an error, etc.

Can anyone help me on why Docker does not enforce the memory limit here?

The container in docker-compose.yml is defined to have a memory limit of 50M, and then I have setup a very simple PHP test which will try to allocate 200M. I've defined PHP mem limit to 128M.

This is my docker-compose.yml

  version: "3"

  services:
    nginx:
      image: nginx:latest
      restart: unless-stopped
      volumes:
        - ./deploy/nginx/nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
        - ./public:/usr/share/nginx/html
      ports:
        - "8180:80"
      links:
        - app

    app:
      image: 127.0.0.1:5000/wpdemo
      build:
        context: .
        dockerfile: Dockerfile-app
      restart: unless-stopped
      volumes:
        - .:/var/www/html
      links:
        - mysql
      deploy:
        resources:
          limits:
            cpus: '0.50'
            memory: 50M
          reservations:
            cpus: '0.25'
            memory: 20M

    mysql:
        image: mysql:5.7
        restart: unless-stopped
        ports:
            - "13306:3306"
        environment:
            MYSQL_ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD: 'yes'
        volumes:
            - ~/docker/volumes/mysql:/var/lib/mysql

Instead of docker killing the container, it allows it to take as much memory as it wants and PHP eventually stops the process throwing the error below:

"PHP message: PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 125829120 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 67108872 bytes) in /var/www/html/public/index.php on line 4"

I'm using Ubuntu 18.04.

WARNING: No swap limit support

Answer 1

As you said in comment, swap is enabled on host but swap limit in cgroups does not supported yet.

According to this enabling swap limit support . Note that reboot of system is essential.

At last, —-memory-swap flag should be set. If you want to prevent your PHP app accessing swap, you should set it with the same value of —-memory . More details about memory swap settings .
