Hi there, Hopefully I'm sending this to the right place, this is the first time I've reported a kernel bug. I'm roughly following this format here https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/lkml/reporting-bugs.html. 1. The OOM killer kicks in to kill processes inside a cgroup that has hit its memory limit but sometimes kills a process outside of the cgroup 2. We've encountered an error on Ubuntu 12.04 running on vsphere with kernel linux-image-3.13.0-32-generic as well as linux-image-3.13.0-35-generic which causes the machine to hard lock up. It is completely unresponsive until hard reset. The issue appears to be that the OOM killer kicks in and kills a process outside of the cgroup that has hit its memory limit. Once this has happened the kernel log shows soft lock ups and eventually completely hangs. We can fairly consistently reproduce this by starting some processes inside an LXC container (via docker) that push the container very close to its memory limit. We then have a cron task that starts up inside the container and causes it to OOM. The OOM killer then kicks in and sometimes will trigger this hang. Every time it happens we see this message: [ 2635.212105] Task in / killed as a result of limit of /lxc/e177098cd5f95ff8dbfa1ea14667b0bdc525dfa2e1c1b3bf763acd0a7ef217a4 Notice how it kills a task in "/"? Immediately following that we start seeing this repeated: [ 3164.153296] BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 22s! [php5:15940] And then the machine hangs. It looks very similar to http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.mm/108113 and http://irc.13thfloor.at/LOG/2014-02/LOG_2014-02-28.txt + http://217.196.41.9/~ard/bertl-is-the-nicest-guy-in-the-world/jimmy.txt (search for "in / killed").
