是什么杀死了我的进程，为什么?

我的应用程序在Linux上作为后台进程运行。它目前在终端窗口的命令行中启动。

最近，一个用户正在执行应用程序一段时间，它神秘地死亡了。文本:

杀了

在终端机上。这样发生了两次。我问是否有人在不同的终端使用kill命令杀死进程?不。

在什么情况下Linux会决定终止我的进程?我相信shell显示“已杀”是因为进程在接收到kill(9)信号后死亡。如果Linux发送了终止信号，系统日志中是否应该有一条消息解释为什么它被终止?

这是Linux内存不足管理器(OOM)。你的进程被选中是因为“不好”——近期性、常驻大小(正在使用的内存，而不仅仅是分配的内存)和其他因素的组合。

sudo journalctl -xb

你会看到这样的消息:

这看起来是一篇关于这个主题的好文章:驯服OOM杀手(1)。

The gist is that Linux overcommits memory. When a process asks for more space, Linux will give it that space, even if it is claimed by another process, under the assumption that nobody actually uses all of the memory they ask for. The process will get exclusive use of the memory it has allocated when it actually uses it, not when it asks for it. This makes allocation quick, and might allow you to "cheat" and allocate more memory than you really have. However, once processes start using this memory, Linux might realize that it has been too generous in allocating memory it doesn't have, and will have to kill off a process to free some up. The process to be killed is based on a score taking into account runtime (long-running processes are safer), memory usage (greedy processes are less safe), and a few other factors, including a value you can adjust to make a process less likely to be killed. It's all described in the article in a lot more detail.

编辑:下面是[另一篇文章](2)，它很好地解释了如何选择进程(带有一些内核代码示例的注释)。它的优点在于，它包含了一些关于各种bad()规则背后原因的注释。

正如dwc和Adam Jaskiewicz所说，罪魁祸首很可能是OOM杀手。然而，接下来的问题是:我如何预防这种情况?

有几种方法:

如果可以的话，给你的系统更多的内存(如果是虚拟机，这很简单) 确保OOM杀手选择不同的进程。禁用OOM杀手选择一个禁用OOM杀手的Linux发行版。

多亏了这篇文章，我发现(2)特别容易实现。

我最近遇到了这个问题。最后，我发现我的进程在自动调用Opensuse zypper更新后被杀死了。禁用zypper更新解决了我的问题。

让我先解释一下什么时候以及为什么调用OOMKiller ?

假设你有512内存+ 1GB交换内存。所以理论上，你的CPU总共可以访问1.5GB的虚拟内存。

现在，在总内存为1.5GB的情况下，一切运行正常。但是突然(或逐渐地)，您的系统开始消耗越来越多的内存，它达到了总内存使用量的95%左右。
