2017-12-12 10:53:46 Dimitri John Ledkov description Hey everyone, Current systemd versions all fail when the unified cgroup hierarchy is not-writable. This is especially problematic in containers where the systemd administrator might decide to not delegate the unified hierarchy or when running with a liblxc driver that doesn't yet know how to handle the unified cgroup hierarchy. I've pushed patches to systemd upstream that let systemd ingnore the non-delegated unified hierarchy. The relevant commits are: e07aefbd675b651f8d45b5fb458f2747b04d6e04 2d56b80a1855836abf1d7458394c345ad9d55382 1ff654e28b7b8e7d0a0be33522a84069ac6b07c0 These patches will be in 235 but should be backported from xenial upwards.

Christian [Impact] * When a container is presented with a unified cgroup hierarchy, which is not properly delegated, systemd should not attempt (and fail) to use. This improves compatibility of xenial containers running on unified cgroup hierarchy hosts. [Test Case] * Xenial containers should boot, with non-writable unified cgroup hierarchy hosts. [Regression Potential] * unified cgroup hierarchy is not in use by default on xenial hosts, thus this is forward compatibility improvment with e.g. bionic hosts running xenial containers.
