    Exit 137: who killed the container?

    · updated on

    Exit code 137 says SIGKILL, not who sent it. Cgroup v2 OOM, docker stop and its timeout, kill -9, and the traces each suspect leaves (memory.events, dmesg, oom_score_adj), measured on Docker 29.4.2.

    Spotted an error, something to add?

    Tell me: I read every message and correct the article when needed.
