Package: systemd
Version: 241-5
Severity: minor
Dear Maintainer,
on one of my systems, debian runs from a filesystem image loop-mounted
from an ntfs volume using ntfs-3g, and thus, the ntfs-3g process must be
running at all times, before mounting the root fs and during shutdown.
To accomplish this I have an initramfs-tools script that runs it something
like this:
exec -a @ntfs-3g-root ntfs-3g ...
The @ prevents systemd-shutdown from killing it, which works. However, it
outputs the following warning (lifted from the code, can't copy&paste from
the real system):
log_notice("Process " PID_FMT " (%s) has been marked to be
excluded from killing. It is "
"running from the root file system, and thus likely
to block re-mounting of the "
"root file system to read-only. Please consider
moving it into an initrd file "
"system instead.", pid, strna(comm));
Since it is running from the initramfs, this warning is bogus (and indeed,
the root fs can be mounted ro with no problem), suggesting that the check
systemd-shutdown uses to detect this case is broken.
For additional reference, /proc/<ntfs-3g-pid>/root has a target of "/",
which probably causes this. /proc/<ntfs-3g-pid>/exe has a target of
'/usr/bin/ntfs-3g (deleted)', which makes sense as it was deleted when
cleaning up the initramfs before handing over to the actual root fs.
