Bug Description
LXCFS upstream released LXCFS 2.0.5 as a bugfix release with following changelog:
- Add Documentation key to systemd unit
- bindings: allow getattr on O_WRONLY files
- bindings: remove noop check
- fix Active/Inactive /proc/meminfo
- macro: add header for shared macros
- pam_cgfs: reimplement and add cgroupfs v2 support
- pam_cgfs: re-use cgroups that already belong to us
- pam_cgfs: handle cgroupfs v1 cpuset controller
- pam_cgfs: improve logging
- cgroups: handle non-existent isolcpus file
Just like Ubuntu itself, upstream releases long term support releases, as is 2.0 and then periodic point releases including all the accumulated bugfixes.
Only the latest upstream release gets full support from the upstream developers, everyone else is expected to first update to it before receiving any kind of support.
This bugfix release has already been uploaded to Zesty and automatically backported in the upstream PPAs for all Ubuntu releases. So far without any reported regression.
This should qualify under the minor upstream bugfix release allowance of the SRU policy, letting us SRU this without paperwork for every single change included in this upstream release.
Once the SRU hits -updates, we will be backporting this to trusty-backports as well, making sure we have the same version everywhere.
