Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 25/73] cgroup1: don't call release_agent when it is ""
Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2020 16:52:49 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200318205337.16279-25-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200318205337.16279-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Tycho Andersen <tycho@tycho.ws>

[ Upstream commit 2e5383d7904e60529136727e49629a82058a5607 ]

Older (and maybe current) versions of systemd set release_agent to "" when
shutting down, but do not set notify_on_release to 0.

Since 64e90a8acb85 ("Introduce STATIC_USERMODEHELPER to mediate
call_usermodehelper()"), we filter out such calls when the user mode helper
path is "". However, when used in conjunction with an actual (i.e. non "")
STATIC_USERMODEHELPER, the path is never "", so the real usermode helper
will be called with argv[0] == "".

Let's avoid this by not invoking the release_agent when it is "".
