[Bug 1696970] Re: softlockup DoS causes systemd-journald.service to abort with SIGABORT
I see more chatter about journald aborting upstream and on the mailing lists. Imho, just because journald was not scheduled to run kind of means that maybe it has too low of a priority, or the system is overloaded. It does not show that journald is actually at fault here, and/or failing. Imho, one shouldn't be killing journald, when it is otherwise obviously operating fine (aka waiting to be run). I'm concerned as to why there is a watchdog on journald now. It should be rocksolid, and either work or crash, there is no need to crash it on a fixed schedule just because. ** Also affects: systemd (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: High Assignee: Balint Reczey (rbalint) Status: Opinion ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: Opinion => Confirmed ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu Bionic) Assignee: Balint Reczey (rbalint) => (unassigned) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1696970 Title: softlockup DoS causes systemd-journald.service to abort with SIGABORT To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1696970/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

@xnox IMO watchdogs should not care if it is a "soft" or other kind of lockup. I'm closing the bug because the workaround for recovering from a potentially broken journal is working and there is no indication of a journal which is actually broken. ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu Artful) Status: Incomplete => Opinion -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1696970 Title: softlockup DoS causes systemd-journald.service to abort with SIGABORT To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1696970/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

The watchdogs are by design. The unclean journal may not be. OTOH if this only happens with the ephemeral journal in /run, the impact is minor. We should check whether the unclean journal problem is reproducible with /var/log/journal. ** Also affects: systemd (Ubuntu Artful) Importance: High Status: New ** Tags removed: rls-aa-incoming ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu Artful) Assignee: (unassigned) => Canonical Foundations Team (canonical-foundations) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1696970 Title: softlockup DoS causes systemd-journald.service to abort with SIGABORT To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1696970/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
