Title: slapd process failure is not detected by systemd Status in openldap package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in openldap source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Status in openldap source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Status in openldap source package in Cosmic: Fix Committed Status in openldap package in Debian: New Bug description: [Impact] Systemd service reports slapd as active, even though it may have failed [Description] The slapd package for OpenLDAP is shipped with a SysV-style init script (/etc/init.d/slapd). Systemd automatically converts this to a systemd service by generating the unit file using the systemd-sysv-generator(8) utility. The generated unit file contains Type=forking and RemainAfterExit=yes directives. If the slapd daemon process exits due to some failure (e.g., it receives a SIGTERM or SIGKILL), the failure is not detected properly by systemd. The service is still reported as active even though the child (daemon) process has exited with a signal. We can easily fix this by including a proper systemd service file for slapd in the openldap package. Since the init.d script already does most of the necessary work (parsing configs, setting up PID files, etc.), we don't need anything complicated for the systemd unit file. Just making sure that RemainAfterExit is set to "no" makes the systemd service behave in the expected way. [Test Case] 1) Deploy a disco container $ lxc launch images:ubuntu/disco disco 2) Install slapd ubuntu@disco:~$ sudo apt update && sudo apt install slapd -y 3) Verify that slapd is running with the auto-generated service ubuntu@disco:~$ systemctl status slapd ● slapd.service - LSB: OpenLDAP standalone server (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/slapd; generated) Active: active (running) since Fri 2019-03-22 11:51:22 UTC; 40min ago Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8) Process: 1103 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/slapd start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Tasks: 3 (limit: 4915) Memory: 712.6M CGroup: /system.slice/slapd.service └─1109 /usr/sbin/slapd -h ldap:/// ldapi:/// -g openldap -u openldap -F /etc/ldap/slapd.d 4) SIGKILL the slapd process (PID is displayed in systemctl status output) ubuntu@disco:~$ sudo kill -9 1109 5) Check if systemd service lists slapd as still active, even though it was terminated ubuntu@disco:~$ systemctl status slapd ● slapd.service - LSB: OpenLDAP standalone server (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/slapd; generated) Active: active (exited) since Fri 2019-03-22 11:51:22 UTC; 42min ago Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8) Process: 1103 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/slapd start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) 6) Check if systemd has loaded both /run/systemd/generator.late/slapd.service & /usr/lib/systemd/system/slapd.service.d/slapd-remain-after-exit.conf $ systemctl cat slapd [Regression Potential] The regression potential for this fix should be very low, if we keep the new systemd unit file close to the one generated by systemd-sysv-generator(8). The only significant change would be the RemainAfterExit directive, and this should make the slapd service behave like a "normal" forking service. Nonetheless, we'll perform scripted test runs to make sure no regressions arise.
