grsecurity forums

Hi,
I'm running a container using systemd-nspawn with a grsec-patched kernel on an up-to-date ArchLinux. On that container, when trying to use postfix, when I `systemctl stop postfix`, the process is correctly stopped, however systemd still waits for the process to exit (which it has).

There are lots of details in the original bug report against systemd (I was directed to you guys).

Let me know if there is anything more you need to diagnose the issue.

Cheers

Can you try disabling CONFIG_GRKERNSEC_CHROOT_FINDTASK? or echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/grsecurity/chroot_findtask

Indeed. `sysctl -w kernel.grsecurity.chroot_findtask=0` solves the issue.

Reading the chroot_findtask option description, it suggests that postfix escapes the container somehow? I'm not sure I fully understand the implications here...

Thanks a lot!

Edited to show my google-fu is not completely useless...
