After setting try_inotify to false, I see that the message that an inotify was set up does not show up anymore, but no message that polling is used instead is shown in the logs. If I understand the code correctly, that's just right - a message will only be shown if try_inotify is true and it actually fails.
The polling, though, appears to be pretty useless when checking the code. It checks whether "mtime" was changed, on "/etc/resolv.conf". That seems to rarely change for the symlink, but only for the symlink target, so actual resolv-file changes are not noticed... I think your observation concerning inotify is expected, since inotify works with on inode numbers, IIUC. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1723350 Title: sssd offline on boot, stays offline forever To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sssd/+bug/1723350/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
