tags 750734 upstream fixed-upstream
thanks
Hi Frederik,
upstream now contains a workaround which should ignore the broken device
ID field in /proc/<pid>/maps on btrfs filesystems. The patch will be
part of the next needrestart release.
Thanks for your support in finding the root of this bug.
Cheers,
Thomas

I am thinking of another thing the two affected systems have in common:
they use BTRFS and file systems are mounted noatime.
BTRFS seems to be the trigger. I've create two vanilla KVM VMs using
Jessie's netinst alpha CD-ROM image and virtio block devices with ext4
and btrfs as rootfs:
1) ext4: everything is fine

2) btrfs: device IDs seems to be broken?!
root@btrtb:~# grep /usr/sbin/sshd /proc/1928/maps

Hmm, the device id reported by stat seems to be broken, too:
root@btrtb:~# mount |grep ' on / '
/dev/vda1 on / type btrfs (rw,relatime,space_cache)
root@btrtb:~# ls -lha /dev/vda1
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 254, 1 Jun 11 23:32 /dev/vda1
This looks weird to me! After looking around I've found a bug at redhats
bug tracker (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=711881)... it
seems to me that btrfs breaks the bijective device ID/inode concept :-/
Cheers,
Thomas
