Package: openjdk-21-jdk Version: 21.0.8~5ea-1 openjdk is no longer "cgroup-aware" when running in a container with cgroupv2 enabled. Apparently this is a regression triggered by kernel 6.12. AFAIU openjdk relies upon some deprecated features that were dropped for the new kernel. See https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8347811. Sample:
