It may not be a problem for an individual or small scale deployment but when "sweep before tear down" is the part of the workflow for thousands of machines cycling through hundreds of thousands of cgroups then we can potentially flood the logs with not useful dumps and may hide (or overflow) any useful information in the logs.I'm proposing a patch which allows configuring which OOM-related messages should be sent to consoles at https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200424024239.63607-1-penguin-kernel-JPay3/Yim36HaxMnTkn67Xf5DAMn2ifp@public.gmane.org . Will that approach help you?quoted
From what I understand, that patch is specifically for controllingmessages to consoles. The messages will still be in logs, right?
Right. If you want to control which OOM-related messages should be sent to syslog, we could use similar approach.
