[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#793081: More info

[Raphael Hertzog]

Weirdly this does not happen with all chroots. The problematic one
is based on Debian Wheezy. One based on jessie is fine.

I tried to track down the differences between both and
the output of /proc/mounts and /proc/self/mountinfo differs
between both for a reason that I don't understand (in particular since
those files provide kernel data and that the kernel is shared...).

Problematic chroot:
(moto-amd64-sbuild)root at aphrodite:~# cat /proc/self/mountinfo |grep shm
(moto-amd64-sbuild)root at aphrodite:~# cat /proc/mounts |grep shm
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs rw,relatime 0 0
tmpfs /var/lib/schroot/mount/sana-amd64-sbuild-04f2ac4e-879e-4dd6-818e-3a5074f40007/dev/shm tmpfs rw,relatime 0 0

Working chroot:
(sana-amd64-sbuild)root at aphrodite:~# cat /proc/self/mountinfo |grep shm
51 47 0:37 / /dev/shm rw,relatime shared:29 - tmpfs tmpfs rw
(sana-amd64-sbuild)root at aphrodite:~# cat /proc/mounts |grep shm
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs rw,relatime 0 0
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs rw,relatime 0 0

There is no significant difference in the way schroot is configured
for both chroots:
# diff -u /etc/schroot/chroot.d/{moto,sana}-amd64-sbuild

So both are using the same "sbuild" profile.
