Vinod Kone commented on MESOS-5894: ----------------------------------- Currently, an executor and any of its tasks share the same cgroup limits. The cgroup limits are increased/decreased as tasks come and go from the executor. So yes, there is no isolation between tasks of an executor and executor itself. This will change in the future when we allow tasks to have their own resource limits. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3333 > cpu share should be considered distinctly from cpu allocation > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MESOS-5894 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-5894 > Project: Mesos > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: allocation > Affects Versions: 0.28.2 > Environment: Linux, cgroups, docker > Reporter: Christopher Hunt > Labels: cgroups, cpu-usage, docker > > As a framework developer I wish to explicitly declare the cpu.share for a > task and its associated executor so that I may have a direct means of > controlling their respective cpu usage at runtime. > With current behaviour, I've noticed that the cgroup cpu.share for a task > includes both the executor's cpu.share and also the cpu value specified as a > task's resources. The cpu.share value appears to be calculated as a multiple > of 1024, therefore 1 cpu == 1024, 0.1 cpu = 102 and so forth. I find this > behaviour to be unexpected, and also an overloading of the meaning of the > resource cpu type. My understanding of the resource cpu type is that it is > used primarily for decrementing from the total number of cpus available to a > node, and thereby influences the resource offers made to a given framework in > consideration of other frameworks. On the other hand, cpu shares limit the > amount of cpu used at runtime. > By way of a solution, perhaps a new Resource type could be introduced named > "cpu-share" and optionally provided by a scheduler when constructing a > TaskInfo. The cpu share resource could also be optionally specified for the > associated executor. By not specifying the cpu share, the existing behaviour > is preserved thereby providing backward compatibility. > Related issue: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-1718 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
