- Around line 150-152: Replace the hardcoded /proc/1/maps checks with the
offending CUDA workload/application PID in both the detailed diagnostic and
checklist steps: docs/troubleshooting/cuda-memory-enforcement.md lines 150-152
and 185-185, and
i18n/zh/docusaurus-plugin-content-docs/current/troubleshooting/cuda-memory-enforcement.md
lines 159-161 and 194-194. Keep the expected libvgpu.so mapping guidance
unchanged while ensuring every English and Chinese command targets the workload
PID.
- Line 181: Update the checklist expected results at
docs/troubleshooting/cuda-memory-enforcement.md:181 and
i18n/zh/docusaurus-plugin-content-docs/current/troubleshooting/cuda-memory-enforcement.md:190
to accept CUDA_DISABLE_CONTROL being unset or set to false, matching the
documented enforcement behavior in both English and Chinese.
- Line 189: Update the CUDA troubleshooting guidance at
docs/troubleshooting/cuda-memory-enforcement.md:189-189 and mirror the same
wording at
i18n/zh/docusaurus-plugin-content-docs/current/troubleshooting/cuda-memory-enforcement.md:198-198.
Do not treat missing [HAMi-core] logs as proof that libvgpu.so is not
intercepting calls because LIBCUDA_LOG_LEVEL may suppress them; describe absence
as suggestive only and require a positive process-level check, such as
confirming libvgpu.so is mapped in the offending process.
- Line 29: Update the paragraph around the dlsym interception description in
docs/troubleshooting/cuda-memory-enforcement.md:29-29 and its Chinese mirror
i18n/zh/docusaurus-plugin-content-docs/current/troubleshooting/cuda-memory-enforcement.md:38-38
to state that libvgpu.so intercepts only CUDA/NVML symbols registered in its
explicit hook tables, rather than every cu* or nvml* function. Also update the
matching core-concepts paragraph with the same scope correction; no other
behavior or documentation claims need changing.
- Around line 145-155: Update the CUDA linkage diagnostics in
docs/troubleshooting/cuda-memory-enforcement.md: clarify that ldd only reports
declared dependencies and may miss libraries loaded with dlopen, add inspection
for runtime-loaded CUDA libraries and RTLD_DEEPBIND bypasses, narrow the
“statically linked” conclusion accordingly, and remove the unqualified framework
claim. Mirror the same corrected diagnostic and resolution guidance in
i18n/zh/docusaurus-plugin-content-docs/current/troubleshooting/cuda-memory-enforcement.md
(lines 149-164); both sites require direct changes.

strong page, i checked every cross link and both faq anchors, they all resolve. three gaps below. also: the pr body skips the template (no kind, no checklist) and has no ai note per the contributor guide. and only the en build was run, please run the full build, the zh locale is affected by the sidebar change.

this placeholder duplicates 200 english lines that will drift. docusaurus falls back to english automatically when the zh file is absent, so you can drop this file.

the zh version of this page did not get the tip. add it there too.
…placeholder translation Addresses review feedback from mesutoezdil: - Add missing sidebar.docs.category.Troubleshooting zh translation entries, the new category was showing in English in the zh sidebar. - Add the zh Deep dive tip block to troubleshooting.md, it was missing from the Chinese page even though the English page links to the enforcement guide. - Remove the zh cuda-memory-enforcement.md placeholder. It manually duplicated ~200 lines of English content behind a not-yet-translated note; Docusaurus already falls back to English automatically when a translated doc is absent, so the duplicate only added drift risk.

man7 ld.so /etc/ld.so.preload statically linked executable dynamic linker
💡 Result:
Statically linked executables do not use the dynamic linker (ld.so/ld-linux.so) at runtime, and consequently, they ignore the /etc/ld.so.preload file and the LD_PRELOAD environment variable [1][2]. The /etc/ld.so.preload file is a configuration mechanism for the dynamic linker [3][4]. When a dynamically linked program starts, the kernel loads the dynamic linker into the process's memory space, which then reads /etc/ld.so.preload and maps the specified shared libraries into the process before executing the program's main code [2]. Because a fully static executable is "self-contained"—incorporating all necessary dependencies directly into the binary—it does not have a dynamic segment or a program interpreter requirement, so it never invokes the dynamic linker during startup [1][2][5]. As a result, attempts to use /etc/ld.so.preload to interpose functions or inject libraries into statically linked binaries are ineffective [1][2]. While it is technically possible to manually invoke the dynamic linker on a static binary (e.g., /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --preload lib.so./static_binary), this is not the standard execution path and does not resolve symbols or facilitate the typical interposition behavior that occurs with dynamically linked programs [6].

Restrict the /etc/ld.so.preload claim to dynamically linked processes.
Replace “when any process starts” with “when a dynamically linked process starts.” Statically linked executables do not use the dynamic linker.

Match CUDA_DISABLE_CONTROL exactly in both diagnostics.
The detailed command uses an unanchored search, and the checklist searches for the broader CUDA_DISABLE prefix. Unrelated variables can produce a false match. Anchor the variable name and the = delimiter.

Reverting the removal of the zh cuda-memory-enforcement.md placeholder: this site's docs plugin falls back to English content for missing translated docs, but its markdown link resolver only resolves relative links against files that physically exist in the current locale's tree. Deleting the file broke MDX compilation for two links (verified locally with a full en+zh build): this doc's own ../developers/hami-core-design.md link when reused as the zh fallback, and the zh troubleshooting.md tip added in the previous commit. Restoring the placeholder is the only configuration confirmed to build clean. While restoring it, also fixed two broken FAQ anchor links inside the zh placeholder: they pointed at the English anchor slugs (#how-does-hami-enforce-...), but the zh FAQ page's headings are translated to Chinese, so Docusaurus generates Chinese anchor slugs. Verified the actual generated ids in the build output and corrected both links; this also resolves the 'broken anchors' build warning. Signed-off-by: ipsitapp8 <ipsitapp8@gmail.com>
The previous commit's FAQ link fix never actually got staged, it committed the old English anchor slugs instead of the corrected Chinese ones. This commit stages the actual fix: the two FAQ links in the zh placeholder now point at the real generated anchor ids (#hami-如何强制执行-gpu-显存和算力限制 and #hami-vgpu-与-nvidia-mig-有何区别各适用于什么场景), verified against the build output. Signed-off-by: ipsitapp8 <ipsitapp8@gmail.com>

Fixed all three: added the zh category label to current.json, added the zh deep-dive tip to troubleshooting.md, and kept the zh placeholder after confirming (with a full en+zh build) that dropping it breaks MDX link resolution for two relative links. Ready for another look whenever you get a chance. |

What type of PR is this?
/kind documentation
What this PR does / why we need it:
Adds a comprehensive technical guide and diagnostic runbook explaining how HAMi's soft CUDA-level memory enforcement works, why it can be bypassed, and how to debug each bypass scenario step by step.
Changes:
docs/troubleshooting/cuda-memory-enforcement.md: Explains thelibvgpu.sointerception chain, a soft vs hard enforcement comparison matrix, 5 documented bypass scenarios with diagnostic commands, and a 7-step quick checklist.docs/troubleshooting/troubleshooting.md(en + zh): Adds a cross-reference tip pointing to the deep-dive page.sidebars.js: Converts thetroubleshootingsingle doc into a category with both pages.i18n/zh/.../current.json: Adds the missing zh label for the new "Troubleshooting" sidebar category (previously showed in English).i18n/zh/.../cuda-memory-enforcement.md: Chinese placeholder showing the English content with a "not yet translated" note, plus corrected FAQ anchor links (pointing at the actual Chinese-slugified anchor ids, not the English ones).Note on the zh placeholder: a reviewer suggested dropping it since Docusaurus falls back to English automatically when a translated doc is missing. I tried that, but this site's docs plugin only applies that fallback at the routing/sidebar level, not when resolving relative markdown links from other zh files (or from this doc's own links, when it's reused as the zh fallback) — deleting it broke MDX compilation for two links.
