Motivation

In parallel test execution, multiple processes may concurrently utilize shared memory (/dev/shm), which can lead to instability under the current 64GB limit. Specifically:

  • DataLoader relies on shared memory for multiprocessing data transfer
  • CUDA may use shared memory for IPC mechanisms
  • Multiple test processes can access /dev/shm simultaneously

This may result in intermittent failures (e.g., Killed) due to insufficient shared memory.

Modifications

  • Increase Docker shared memory size from 64GB to 128GB in _unit_test_coverage.yml to improve stability under parallel workloads
  • Add --ulimit nofile=65536:65536 to increase maximum open file descriptors
  • Add --ulimit nproc=8192:8192 to increase maximum user processes

📋 Review 摘要

PR 概述:增加 CI 测试容器的共享内存和 ulimit 限制

变更范围.github/workflows/_unit_test_coverage.yml

影响面 Tag[CI]

📝 PR 规范检查

PR 标题包含有效 Tag [CI],描述包含 Motivation 和 Modifications 部分,符合规范。

Modifications 部分描述不完整:仅提到了 shm-size 的增加,未提及新增的两个 --ulimit 配置。

建议更新

## Modifications

- Increase Docker shared memory size from `64GB` to `128GB` in `_unit_test_coverage.yml` to improve stability under parallel workloads
- Add `--ulimit nofile=65536:65536` to increase maximum open file descriptors
- Add `--ulimit nproc=8192:8192` to increase maximum user processes

问题

级别 文件 概述
🟡 建议 PR 描述 Modifications 未涵盖所有变更

总体评价

CI 配置变更合理,有助于提升并行测试稳定性。建议补充 PR 描述以完整记录所有修改内容。

另外注意到项目中还有多个其他 CI 文件使用 shm-size=64G(如 _base_test.yml_gpu_4cards_case_test.yml 等),如果共享内存不足问题在其他测试中也存在,可能需要同步调整。但若仅 _unit_test_coverage.yml 存在此问题,当前变更范围合理。
