[PATCH 1/2] vircgroupv2: Fix VM startup when legacy cgroups are defined

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On Fedora 31, starting a 'mock' build alters /proc/$pid/cgroup,
probably due to usage of systemd-nspawn.

Before:
$ cat /proc/self/cgroup
0::/user.slice/user-1000.slice/...

After:
$ cat /proc/self/cgroup
1:name=systemd:/
0::/user.slice/user-1000.slice/...

The cgroupv2 code mishandles that first line in the second case, which
causes VM startup to fail with: Unable to read from
'/sys/fs/cgroup/machine/cgroup.controllers': No such file or directory

The kernel docs[1] say that the cgroupv2 path will always start with
'0::', which in the code here controllers="". Only set the v2 placement
path when we see that cgroup file entry.
