Please look defect SW363655 for more details and the suggestion given earlier by Linux team. errors are still seen. So, would ask Linux team to take a look and see if anything else is causing these errors. == Comment: #3 - Kevin W. Rudd <ru...@us.ibm.com> - 2016-12-19 17:34:27 == It appears that the version of logind on this system does not support the value of "infinity", and is reverting to the default of 12288: # cat /sys/fs/cgroup/pids/user.slice/user-0.slice/pids.max 12288 As a workaround until this can be resolved, specify an exact value. You can try using the current system thread-max value: # cat /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max 3974272 /etc/systemd/logind.conf.d/htxlogindcustom.conf: [Login] UserTasksMax=3974272 == Comment: #4 - Kevin W. Rudd - 2016-12-20 10:25:09 == Canonical, This issue appears to map to the following systemd bug and patch: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/3833 https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/f50582649f8eee73f59aff95fadd9a963ed4ffea This patch appears to be included in debian/232-7, but is missing in the xenial and yakkety versions. ** Affects: systemd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: architecture-ppc64le bot-comment bugnameltc-150030 severity-high targetmilestone-inin16042 -- systemd/logind parsing problem: HTX exercisers stopped on error: rc 11, errno 11 from main(): pthread_create https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1651518 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
