AWS builds appears to rerun "everyboot" inithooks over and over?! Not just at boot... #2000

Open JedMeister opened 2 weeks ago

JedMeister commented 2 weeks ago

As per subject, AWS (i.e. EC2 AMI) & ISO builds rerun the "everyboot" inithooks (/usr/lib/inithooks/everyboot.d/) every minute!

As inithooks should be idempotent, it shouldn't have any negative impact.

[update] seen in v18.x VM (ISO install) recently. Hasn't been seen it in LXC to date - assume issue is intermittent and/or requires specific circumstance.

Issue is:

  1. Our login wrapper runs: a. inithooks b. confconsole c. prints motd d. login
  2. Confconsole is not run on AWS
  3. Login will exit after 1 minute IDLE
  4. Getty will restart the process for a given TTY when it exits.
