Bug 2176768

Probably the reason is https://github.com/SSSD/sssd/blob/712377ea5c5b70a71e4fdb1b1c40ad059157778c/src/util/util.c#L669 :
```
const char * const * get_known_services(void)
{
    static const char *svc[] = {"nss", "pam", "sudo", "autofs",
                                "ssh", "pac", "ifp", NULL };

    return svc;
}
```
  --  `get_known_services()` doesn't list `kcm` so `monitor` refuses to register it:
https://github.com/SSSD/sssd/blob/712377ea5c5b70a71e4fdb1b1c40ad059157778c/src/monitor/monitor.c#L211


 Christian, is there "Invalid service ..." line in sssd.log?

Might be worth a test built, to verify if sssd then starts
as parent of sssd_kcm.

Not seeing that on customers logs, and also not in a KVM-guest
with rhel8.6GA and sssd_kcm running.
  DEBUG(SSSDBG_FATAL_FAILURE, "Invalid service %s\n", svc_name);
should log it without increased debug level, I think.

Tried to use rpmbuild to rebuild sssd packages on both rhel8/rhel9.
On both package cifs-utils-devel is build dependency, which only exists on
rhel7.  Adding the rhel7 cifs-utils-devel, both rebuilds fail in the
"testing" phase of the build.

Not sure what you mean with "sssd then starts as parent of sssd_kcm."

If you use sssd_kcm as socket activated service (a default) then changing this list is source code won't affect this.
But idea is that 'monitor' (main 'sssd' process) should register socket activated services (and thus be able to communicate with) as well.

Then it's more complicated. Probably sssd_kcm doesn't register with monitor, I need to check.

Indeed:
```
$ grep -rn sss_monitor_service_init *
providers/data_provider_be.c:704:    ret = sss_monitor_service_init(be_ctx, be_ctx->ev, be_ctx->sbus_name,
responder/pam/pamsrv.c:410:    ret = sss_monitor_service_init(rctx, rctx->ev, SSS_BUS_PAM,
responder/autofs/autofssrv.c:154:    ret = sss_monitor_service_init(rctx, rctx->ev, SSS_BUS_AUTOFS,
responder/ssh/sshsrv.c:136:    ret = sss_monitor_service_init(rctx, rctx->ev, SSS_BUS_SSH,
responder/sudo/sudosrv.c:112:    ret = sss_monitor_service_init(rctx, rctx->ev, SSS_BUS_SUDO,
responder/pac/pacsrv.c:146:    ret = sss_monitor_service_init(rctx, rctx->ev, SSS_BUS_PAC,
responder/ifp/ifpsrv.c:280:    ret = sss_monitor_service_init(rctx, rctx->ev, SSS_BUS_IFP,
responder/nss/nsssrv.c:631:    ret = sss_monitor_service_init(rctx, rctx->ev, SSS_BUS_NSS,
```

But there might be a reason why it doesn't.

Right, this is on purpose: 'monitor' (main `sssd` process) and KCM service (`sssd_kcm`) are totally independent.
On a default RHEL9 (and RHEL8 starting 8.8) install `sssd_kcm` runs (as socket activated serivce) and `sssd` doesn't (if no domains configured explicitly).
So I guess we need to add it's own `/etc/logrotate.d/sssd_kcm` (or list in `/etc/logrotate.d/sssd`?) and make it handle HUP on its own (if it doesn't yet).

[root@rhel8u6a sa]# ps axf|grep [s]ssd
    752 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/sbin/sssd -i --logger=files

sssd_kcm is separate, that I meant.
It is not receiving a 'kill -HUP' at the moment.

Ok.
