libxl requires the memory sizes to be rounded to 1MiB increments. Attempting to start a domain that violates this requirement will fail with the marginally helpful error 2018-02-22 01:55:32.921+0000: xc: panic: xc_dom_boot.c:141: xc_dom_boot_mem_init: can't allocate low memory for domain: Out of memory 2018-02-22 01:55:32.921+0000: libxl: libxl_dom.c:671:libxl__build_dom: xc_dom_boot_mem_init failed: No such file or directory Round the maximum and current memory values to the next 1MiB increment when generating the libxl_domain_config object.
