Exploring cgroups v2 and MemoryQoS With EKS and Bottlerocket

• bottlerocket

  41 8,587 9.8 Rust

  An operating system designed for hosting containers

  

  According to this discussion - starting with Bottlerocket 1.13.0 (Mar 2023) new distributions will default to using Cgroups v2 interface for process organization and enforcing resource limits.

  To easily spin up a cluster - use the cluster.yaml in the attached github repository:

• bottlerocket-admin-container

  1 57 5.6 Shell

  A container for admin access to Bottlerocket

  

  This will create a cluster with one Bottlerocket node. It also configures ssh access to the nodes by running the Bottlerocket admin container.

• busyhttp

  1 0 - Python

  A trivial HTTP server that eats CPU cycles or memory at each request.

  Ok, now let's deploy a pod to our node. We'll do that by creating a deployment based on the following yaml spec. This deploys antweiss/busyhttp, that I forked from jpetazzo/busyhttp and added memory load and release endpoints to. You'll notice that the pod runs a container with Guaranteed QoS - i.e memory and CPU limits are equal to requests:

  Back inside the sheltie prompt let's explore the containers running on Bottlerocket. Bottlerocket OS is using containerd container runtime. In order to interact with it we'll need to use ctr.

  0 is not the request we've defined. And that makes sense. Memory QoS has been in alpha since Kubernetes 1.22 (August 2021) and according to the KEP data was still in alpha as of 1.27.
