memory_checker
This script is part of the feature which will restart the container if memory
usage of it is larger than the threshold value.
This script is used to check the memory usage of specified cotnainer and
is intended to be run by Monit. It will write an alerting message into
syslog if memory usage of the container is larger than the threshold value for X
times within Y cycles/minutes. Note that if print(...) statement in this script
was executed, the string in it will be appended to Monit syslog messages.
The following is an example in Monit configuration file to show how Monit will run
this script:
check program container_memory_<container_name> with path "/usr/bin/memory_checker <container_name> <threshold_value>"
if status == 3 for X times within Y cycles exec "/usr/bin/restart_service <container_name>"

[Monit] Fix the issue which shows Monit can not reset its counter. (#10288) Signed-off-by: Yong Zhao <yozhao@microsoft.com> Why I did it This PR aims to fix the Monit issue which shows Monit can't reset its counter when monitoring memory usage of telemetry container. Specifically the Monit configuration file related to monitoring memory usage of telemetry container is as following: check program container_memory_telemetry with path "/usr/bin/memory_checker telemetry 419430400" if status == 3 for 10 times within 20 cycles then exec "/usr/bin/restart_service telemetry" If memory usage of telemetry container is larger than 400MB for 10 times within 20 cycles (minutes), then it will be restarted. Recently we observed, after telemetry container was restarted, its memory usage continuously increased from 400MB to 11GB within 1 hour, but it was not restarted anymore during this 1 hour sliding window. The reason is Monit can't reset its counter to count again and Monit can reset its counter if and only if the status of monitored service was changed from Status failed to Status ok. However, during this 1 hour sliding window, the status of monitored service was not changed from Status failed to Status ok. Currently for each service monitored by Monit, there will be an entry showing the monitoring status, monitoring mode etc. For example, the following output from command sudo monit status shows the status of monitored service to monitor memory usage of telemetry: Program 'container_memory_telemetry' status Status ok monitoring status Monitored monitoring mode active on reboot start last exit value 0 last output - data collected Sat, 19 Mar 2022 19:56:26 Every 1 minute, Monit will run the script to check the memory usage of telemetry and update the counter if memory usage is larger than 400MB. If Monit checked the counter and found memory usage of telemetry is larger than 400MB for 10 times within 20 minutes, then telemetry container was restarted. Following is an example status of monitored service: Program 'container_memory_telemetry' status Status failed monitoring status Monitored monitoring mode active on reboot start last exit value 0 last output - data collected Tue, 01 Feb 2022 22:52:55 After telemetry container was restarted. we found memory usage of telemetry increased rapidly from around 100MB to more than 400MB during 1 minute and status of monitored service did not have a chance to be changed from Status failed to Status ok. How I did it In order to provide a workaround for this issue, Monit recently introduced another syntax format repeat every <n> cycles related to exec. This new syntax format will enable Monit repeat executing the background script if the error persists for a given number of cycles. How to verify it I verified this change on lab device str-s6000-acs-12. Another pytest PR (Azure/sonic-mgmt#5492) is submitted in sonic-mgmt repo for review.
