我现在尝试了解 qemu-kvm 内存开销。从主机操作系统中,我们可以找到-m 8192,这意味着我已经为客户分配了8GB内存。

另外,我在 ; 下找到了这部分内存/proc/pid/smaps
;由此我们可以知道它等于8192MB。

但是,当我使用“free”检查 guest OS 下的内存大小时,guestOS 上只剩下 7872MB 了。
[root@host-10-3-0-221 ~]# free -m

我想知道为什么guest中的总大小小于8192MB。
答案1
我在 KVM 和 VMWare 中都看到了这一点,原因是虚拟机管理程序用于处理虚拟机的内存开销,例如让内存过度使用、动态分配和共享内存工作。
我还没有找到任何 kvm 特定的论文,但 vmware 论坛上有一个关于这个问题的很好的帖子:https://communities.vmware.com/message/1994605
