Description Dusty Mabe 2019-11-20 21:10:22 UTC

Description of problem:

On RHCOS (based on RHEL 8.1) I'm doing a container build on startup
and I see a ton of messages in the logs that are mostly not useful:

```
[  OK  ] Created slice libcontainer_29015_systemd_test_default.slice.                                                                                                      
[  OK  ] Removed slice libcontainer_29015_systemd_test_default.slice.
```

This is how many times I see it for one container build:

```
# journalctl | grep 'slice libcontainer_' | wc -l 
3494
```


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

# rpm -q podman systemd
podman-1.6.2-0.3.gita8993ba.el8.x86_64
systemd-239-18.el8.x86_64


How reproducible:

Seems pretty reliable.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot RHCOS/RHEL
2. Do a container build
3. Watch journalctl

If it helps I'm doing container builds of https://github.com/dustymabe/kvc-simple-kmod.git

Comment 1 Colin Walters 2019-11-20 21:52:23 UTC

Should be fixed by https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/pull/2117

Comment 5 Daniel Walsh 2019-11-21 15:02:45 UTC

We should ship the runc that is being shipped in Fedora 30,31

Comment 6 Jindrich Novy 2019-11-21 16:28:34 UTC

runc-1.0.0-61.rc9.el8 is now part of container-tools-rhel8-8.2.0.

Comment 8 Tom Sweeney 2019-11-21 17:52:06 UTC

Dusty any chance you could try runc-1.0.0-61.rc9.el8 and see if it cures your ills?
