Description Ben Cotton 2019-07-22 17:54:29 UTC
This is a tracking bug for Change: Modify Fedora 31 to use CgroupsV2 by default
For more details, see: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/CGroupsV2

The kernel has had some support for CgroupsV2 for some time, and yet no one has used it because it is not on by default.  There are lots of new features and fixes over CgroupsV1 that it is time to reveal to the user community.

Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2019-08-01 23:53:11 UTC
Isn't the only thing that needs to be changed here is systemd to set the default?

Comment 2 Ben Cotton 2019-08-13 18:36:47 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 31 development cycle.
Changing version to 31.

Comment 3 Ben Cotton 2019-08-14 17:56:09 UTC
We have reached the 'Code Complete (testable)' milestone in the Fedora 31 release cycle. If your Change is in a testable state, please set the status to MODIFIED. If this Change will not be ready for Fedora 31, please set the version to rawhide.

The 100% code complete deadline is Tue 2019-08-27.

Comment 5 Ben Cotton 2019-08-27 17:17:52 UTC
We have reached the '100% Code Complete' milestone in the Fedora 31 release cycle. If your Change is complete, please set the status to ON_QA. The Beta Freeze is underway. If you need a freeze exception, see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_freeze_exception_bug_process

If this Change will not be ready for Fedora 31, please set the version to rawhide.

Comment 6 Martin Nowak 2019-09-27 13:56:25 UTC
I think this change is responsible for the unprivileged podman build breakage (bug 1756257).

Comment 7 Daniel Walsh 2019-09-27 14:05:35 UTC
You are currect, it is.  Should be fixed in podman 1.6 release.

Comment 8 Ben Cotton 2019-10-29 17:13:35 UTC
Closing Change tracking bugs for the Fedora 31 release.

Comment 9 customercare 2020-05-30 10:52:58 UTC
cgroups v2 disabled docker containers, which OCI runtime did not update.. a few examples:

ERROR: for docker-jitsi-meet_web_1  Cannot start service web: OCI runtime create failed: this version of runc doesn't work on cgroups v2: unknown

ERROR: for prosody  Cannot start service prosody: OCI runtime create failed: this version of runc doesn't work on cgroups v2: unknown

ERROR: for web  Cannot start service web: OCI runtime create failed: this version of runc doesn't work on cgroups v2: unknown

Comment 10 Daniel Walsh 2020-05-30 11:22:59 UTC
Can you use Podman to run these?

Comment 11 customercare 2020-05-30 11:34:13 UTC
no idea. I never heard of podman before today.It a github based installation:

dnf install docker
git clone https://github.com/jitsi/docker-jitsi-meet && cd docker-jitsi-meet
vi .env
./gen-passwords.sh
mkdir -p ~/.jitsi-meet-cfg/{web/letsencrypt,transcripts,prosody,jicofo,jvb,jigasi,jibri}
docker-compose up -d


The solution was to downgrade F31 to cgroups1.

Comment 12 Daniel Walsh 2020-05-30 11:43:20 UTC
fedora 31 also defaults to cgroups v2. You can modify fedora 32 to run with cgroups V1 using
