Earlyoom works only with zram ? #307

Open Augusto7743 opened 9 months ago

Augusto7743 commented 9 months ago

Hello. Thanks for reading my topic.

I want understand if is possible configure Earlyoom for works only when zram is 10 % free and not needing any ram percentage settings.

The configuration below not works EARLYOOM_ARGS="-s 10,10 -r 0"

What is the correct configuration ? Have an nice day.

Is zram reported as swap? What does free report?

command report zramctl

NAME ALGORITHM DISKSIZE DATA COMPR TOTAL STREAMS MOUNTPOINT /dev/zram0 lzo-rle 2,8G 813,9M 272,1M 301,6M 6 [SWAP]

DISKSIZE is total maximum data allowed to be compressed not being exactly the total buffer size in ram. DATA is total data swapped in zram buffer. TOTAL is the RAM memory area used for compression buffer. Streams number of cpu core allowed to compress and decompress data.

With ZRAM, earlyoom is unexpectedly killing processes with the setting EARLYOOM_ARGS="-s 5": earlyoom[895]: mem avail: 0 of 3 MiB ( 0.00%), swap free: 500283 of 773101 MiB (64.71%)
