Thanks for looking into it. Are there any downsides to disabling udev in the container (by removing /etc/init/udev.conf for example) if we don't need the container to be notified of new devices?

Using FUSE then causes almost all processes in the container to be killed. The following steps reproduce the problem using sshfs: # create a wily container and attach to it sudo lxc-create -t download -n wily -- -d ubuntu -r wily -a amd64 sudo lxc-start -n wily sudo lxc-attach -n wily # inside the container, install upstart-sysv and reboot apt-get update && apt-get -y install upstart-sysv reboot # on the host, reattach to the container sudo lxc-attach -n wily # back in the container, install ssh and sshfs apt-get -y install openssh-server sshfs # create an ssh key pair in /root/.ssh ssh-keygen # set up passwordless ssh mkdir ~ubuntu/.ssh cat /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub >> ~ubuntu/.ssh/authorized_keys eval $(ssh-agent) ssh-add /root/.ssh/id_rsa # take a note of the running processes and their PIDs ps axjf # run sshfs mkdir /fuse sshfs ubuntu@localhost:/ /fuse # we are kicked out of the container # run ps again in the container sudo lxc-attach -n wily -- ps axjf # a whole bunch of processes are now gone. the getty processes now have new PIDs, indicating they have been restarted. Other debugging performed: - On a 14.10 host with lxc version 1.1.0~alpha2-0ubuntu3.3, the problem does not occur. FUSE works fine. - On the same 14.10 host with lxc upgraded to 1.1.5-0ubuntu3~ubuntu14.04.1, the problem occurs. - On a 15.10 host, when running a wily container without upstart, the problem does not occur. - On a 15.10 host, when running a trusty container, the problem does not occur. - The problem can't be reproduced outside a container (15.10 host, install upstart-sysv, then use FUSE) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1530617/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
