Hello, I've found that when lxc-autostart is executed via systemd, the cgroups assigned to the container are wrong for some control groups.
See the following two examples: 1. Container started via systemd (/lib/systemd/system/lxc.service unit that calls lxc-autostart). # cat /proc/${pidofsomeprocessinsidethecontainer}/cgroup 9:perf_event:/lxc/clopeztest3 8:blkio:/ 7:net_cls,net_prio:/lxc/clopeztest3 6:freezer:/lxc/clopeztest3 5:devices:/ 4:memory:/ 3:cpu,cpuacct:/ 2:cpuset:/lxc/clopeztest3 1:name=systemd:/system.slice/lxc.service 2. Container started manually by first stopping it and then executing lxc-autostart from a ssh session. # cat /proc/${pidofsomeprocessinsidethecontainer}/cgroup 9:perf_event:/lxc/clopeztest3 8:blkio:/lxc/clopeztest3 7:net_cls,net_prio:/lxc/clopeztest3 6:freezer:/lxc/clopeztest3 5:devices:/lxc/clopeztest3 4:memory:/lxc/clopeztest3 3:cpu,cpuacct:/lxc/clopeztest3 2:cpuset:/lxc/clopeztest3 1:name=systemd:/user.slice/user-0.slice/session-1.scope As you can see, when systemd calls lxc-autostart, the cgroups for memory, devices, cpu, cpuacct and blkio are not correctly set. The effect of this is that any limitation configured on such container (for example: amount of memory available for the container) is not respected. Are any of you aware of this behavior? Is there any workaround to fix this? Regards! -------- Some notes about the environment: - This is a Debian 8 (jessie) system running the default LXC version (lxc=1:1.0.6-6+deb8u2). - The memory cgroup was enabled (is disabled by default on Debian) by setting on /etc/default/grub GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet cgroup_enable=memory swapaccount=1" and running update-grub && reboot
