[Bug 1689753] [NEW] ram_filter fail when computer-node has hugepages

 

Public bug reported:

environment info:
OS:centos7.1
nova:15.0.2

problem description:
There are 220G memory in compute-node.The 200G of them are hugepages.The page_size is 1G.
Other 20G of them are normal memorys.

When I boot a normal instance with the flavor of 30G mem and no hugepages.
The instance is created successfully.But the OS become unstable even OOM because memory exhausted

I think the instance should boot failed with ram_filter return 0 hosts.Rather than think that the memory is sufficient
and spawn the instance in that compute_node
