I checked all failing autopkgtests on mantic and the most recent ones on lunar. I only saw the `net` autopkgtest fail (which use 512 MB). So only 512 MB was too small, but 1 GB was enough recently.
0.142ubuntu3 ported the net autopkgtest to the common test framework and uses 1 GB now. I am marking it as fixed released due to the 0.142ubuntu3 upload. Please reopen this bug in case this version starts to have failing autopkgtest or in case you disagree that 1 GB is enough. ** Changed in: initramfs-tools (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to initramfs-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1990824 Title: initramfs-tools: out-of-memory failures during autopkgtest Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] Some autopkgtest tests are failing due to out-of-memory conditions, especially amd64-ata-only and net. It seems that we are creating a VM with 1GB only to run the amd64-ata- only test and even just 512MB for the net test. It probably makes sense to create larger VMs (at least 2GB) to run these tests with a more recent kernels (that will likely require a little more RAM). [Test case] sudo autopkgtest . -- null [Fix] Increase memory size of instances used to run the autopkgtests to 2GB. [Regression potential] We may experience regressions in small cloud instances, or systems with less than 2GB or RAM that are using a recent kernel (but this is more a generic potential regression, not strictly related to initramfs-tools).
