Details
Since upgrading from linux-4.2.5-1 to 4.3.3-2, programs
crash regularly when they try to fork or create threads. The
error message is always "Resource temporarily unavailable".
I have made sure that all the ulimits are high enough.
Downgrading back to the old kernel version fixes the issue.
Different people on the internet report similar issues when
upgrading to 4.3, for example here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/11/24/203.
In my particular case I run a docker server and several containers, and both the server and the containers crash regularly. I published more details of my case here: http://unix.stackexchange.com/q/253903/59955 On FreeNode ##linux, people who have had similar problems solved them by changing kernel options. I have myself not yet looked into which particular kernel options are causing this, but I’m opening this bug anyways in the hope that someone might already have an idea. |

@cdauth: Can you tell what kernel options they changed to fix the issue? maybe that will help the maintainers to narrow down the problem.
FS#47303solves the issue for me.
