cadvisor has memory leak: cadvisor watch all cgroup director. when file or directory delete, inotify will recevie INDELETE event, when cadvisor recevie INDELETE, cadvisor will call inotify RemoveWatch to remove watch descriptor. When watch descriptor delete before function called, function will return EINVAL, may lead this path remain in watches and paths map, and also not delete path in containersWatched, finally lead to memory leak before kubernetes 1.19, kubelet use ref manager to manage the reference, this reference used for reporting events such as creation,failure, etc. In job completed scenes, container exit with exit code 0, kubelet not to remove reference in ref manager, so lead to memory leak i submit to ignore EINVAL error when calling RemoveWatch, fixed cadvisor memory leak.

google/cadvisor has merged. It will be included in next cAdvisor release and next k8s version (1.24). If this problem is more widespread we can consider to backport it... is it common to get into case of inotify handles being leaked?
We have a number of issues that might be the symptom of this issue. Namely, a few customers are reporting memory is full on the node, but all the RSS doesn't add up to the in-use space. With the anonymous mmapped data being retained, this issue seems like the culprit. Can we get a backport to 1.23 and 1.22?
I think we can expect quite a big performance boost from this issue. I'll backport to 1.23 and 1.22.
Agree, sounds like we should backport it. I don't think we need to bump cAdvisor, we just need to bump k/utils to pick up the fix PRs from to bump k/utils should be sufficient to backport the fix. Thanks for creating them
I created a 1.21 backport linked to this issue:
The 1.20 backport Closed the 1.20 backport since that release is not supported.
I think we can close this, as all relevant prs have been merged. /close
