[PATCH] Fix starting domains when kernel has no cgroups support

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

 



Found that I was unable to start existing domains after updating
to a kernel with no cgroups support

  # zgrep CGROUP /proc/config.gz
  # CONFIG_CGROUPS is not set
  # virsh start test
  error: Failed to start domain test
  error: Unable to initialize /machine cgroup: Cannot allocate memory

virCgroupPartitionNeedsEscaping() correctly returns errno (ENOENT) when
attempting to open /proc/cgroups on such a system, but it was being
dropped in virCgroupSetPartitionSuffix().

Change virCgroupSetPartitionSuffix() to propogate errors returned by
its callees.  Also check for ENOENT in qemuInitCgroup() when determining
if cgroups support is available.
