2013-12-04 17:53:12 Serge Hallyn cgroup-lite (Ubuntu): importance Undecided High
2013-12-04 18:03:11 Serge Hallyn description In a stock apparmor-protected container on precise, apt-get install cgroup-lite fails. This is because it cannot mount cgroups. Discussion on irc suggests the best fix is to make the cgroup-lite upstart job {stop; exit 0;} if /bin/mount-cgroup fails. ==================================== SRU Justification 1. Impact: apt-get install cgroup-lite fails 2. Development fix: /bin/cgroup-mount was changed quite a bit to not fail 3. Stable fix: some of the devel fixes are not appropriate. So instead, just do '/bin/cgroup-mount || { stop; exit 0 } in the upstart job 4. test case: sudo apt-get -y install lxc sudo lxc-create -t ubuntu -n p1 -- -r precise sudo lxc-start -n p1 # log in sudo apt-get -y install cgroup-lite # this will fail 5. Regression potential: users may now think that cgroups are available for use (i.e. by lxc) when in fact they are not. In a stock apparmor-protected container on precise, apt-get install cgroup-lite fails. This is because it cannot mount cgroups. Discussion on irc suggests the best fix is to make the cgroup-lite upstart job {stop; exit 0;} if /bin/mount-cgroup fails. That way package install will succeed, but the upstart job won't be running, which users can detect.
