bash error on entering terminal.

[headkase]

Hi, today I applied the usual updates, some X updates and a new Liquorix kernel being the ones that stuck out.

Now, whenever I open a terminal I get the following message:

bash: /dev/cgroup/cpu/user/3282/tasks: No such file or directory
bash: /dev/cgroup/cpu/user/3282/notify_on_release: No such file or directory

Each time I open a terminal the number (3282) is different. It is a non-fatal error, I can continue to use the terminal without issues.

However, anyone know of a fix I can apply to get rid of these messages?

Thank you in advance,
Bill.

Apparently it is to do with the "200 lines" patch to the kernel which improves latency.

The liquorix kernel update is likely the cause of this situation.

Any advice?

i got same problem here, after i update my kernel to 2.6.38-2.dmz.2-liquorix-686.
This error appears when i started shell / terminal

Code: Select all

bash: /dev/cgroup/cpu/user/17599/tasks: No such file or directory
bash: /dev/cgroup/cpu/user/17599/notify_on_release: No such file or directory

The number was automatically generated. Anyone know how to remove this error message?

Same here!
(newest liquorix kernel)

This error appears when i started shell / terminal

Code: Select all

bash: /dev/cgroup/cpu/user/17599/tasks: No such file or directory
bash: /dev/cgroup/cpu/user/17599/notify_on_release: No such file or directory

NOTE:
"headcase" and I also have a similar problem in that "Mark all Upgrades" is missing now in Synaptic.
These issues must be related.

If you select the first, scroll down and shift+select the last , then right click you can mark all of them.

The problem is with the so-called "200-line patch" to the kernel, which enables process groups called "cgroups". The Liquorix kernel includes this patch, and it also includes these lines in your /etc/bash.bashrc:

Code: Select all

if [ "$PS1" ] ; then  
   mkdir -p -m 0700 /dev/cgroup/cpu/user/$$ > /dev/null 2>&1
   echo $$ > /dev/cgroup/cpu/user/$$/tasks
   echo "1" > /dev/cgroup/cpu/user/$$/notify_on_release
fi

This is not really appropriate for the shared /etc/bash.bashrc file, which is shared by all users, because only root has access to write to /dev/cgroup.

Just comment those lines out, and you won't see the cgroup error.

Actually, the Liquorix kernel cannot use cgroups because it does not use the mainline process scheduler, CFS.

However, I need to make a decision soon to temporarily use CFS in the next kernel package because 2.6.39.4 came out recently and Greg Kroah marked this branch as end-of-life. I'll see what Con does over the next week and move forward if he does not port BFS to 3.0.
