2013-06-07 23:54:48 ojab description Oh hai! I've found that 0.37.1-1ubuntu10 in precise/LTS cannot process symlinked executables correctly, the testcase is >$ /usr/bin/env python -c "import time; time.sleep(2)" & cgclassify $! >Error in determining process name of pid 9738 The issue was fixed upstream in v0.38, see https://sourceforge.net/p/libcg/libcg/ci/acbed86127d5d81d082fa5b90cac13a4f84f877e It will be awesome if the patch will be applied to v0.37 in precise/LTS, because right now cgrulesengd/cgclassify are basically unusable.

Impact: symlinked executables cannot be classified 2. Development fix: in the case of a symlink, read the real file path from /proc/self/exe 3. Stable fix: cherrypick small patch from development fix. 4. Test case: see comment #5. 5. Regression potential: there should be none, as this fix is taken straight from upstream and only affects the path when a symbolic link is being run (which is already broken). ==============================
