Observable memory usage in kvm/qemu to predict OOM #3865

Open eriknordmark opened 2 months ago

eriknordmark commented 2 months ago

The memory usage of kvm/qemu is not always predictable. Various adjustments have been made to take into account the various memory allocations done in qemu. But it would be good to find a way to be able to more easily observe where and what memory it allocates so that we can improve these estimates.

In the scope of this task, I'm going to integrate a Memory Monitor into the EVE rootfs. Also we had some work done with the QEMU observations. So, before starting on the task, please contact me or @rouming.
