Package: openssh-server Version: 1:5.1p1-4 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch
See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=487325 (I guess the resolution of that bug report was for sshd to treat empty $SSHD_OOM_ADJUST the same as unset SSHD_OOM_ADJUST) This patch to /etc/init.d/ssh turns off SSHD_OOM_ADJUST if attempting to write to oom_adj would just create useless log noise. I got the detection method from http://osdir.com/ml/linux.openvz.user/2008-07/msg00045.html but there might be something better. (I don't know why the openvz guest kernel doesn't just make oom_adj 0444 instead of 0644.) diff --git a/init.d/ssh b/init.d/ssh index a1cc677..6fa37ad 100755 --- a/init.d/ssh +++ b/init.d/ssh @@ -21,6 +21,12 @@ if test -f /etc/default/ssh; then . /etc/default/ssh fi +# are we in virtual environment that doesn't support modifying +# /proc/self/oom_adj? +if grep -q "envID:.*[1-9]" /proc/self/status; then + SSHD_OOM_ADJUST= +fi + . /lib/lsb/init-functions if [ -n "$2" ]; then -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
