Once Seth's work enabling mounting inside containers is complete, we'll most likely want some way of enabling quotas, so leaving this open as a wishlist (feature request/enhancement) item. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to lxc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1515615 Title: Disk quotas don't work in LXC containers Status in lxc package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I'm trying to enable disk quotas in LXC container by adding option to its config: lxc.rootfs.options = usrquota After booting the container I'm trying to initialize quotas but getting the following error: r...@test.lxc:~# quotacheck -gum / quotacheck: Cannot stat() mounted device /dev/lxc/test: No such file or directory quotacheck: Mountpoint (or device) / not found or has no quota enabled. quotacheck: Cannot find filesystem to check or filesystem not mounted with quota option.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1515615] Re: Disk quotas don't work in LXC containers
What do you mean by "not using real device"? The real lvm device is mounted into the container. However actually offering the device node into the container would not be a safe default. In particular, it allows the container admin to write nonsense onto the device node, feeding garbage into the in-kernel filesystem driver, and most likely either DOS or gain privilege on the host. If root in the container is trusted, then it should be possible to work this out, but frankly noone seems to have wanted this yet. There is probably an easier way to achieve what you want. For instance, setting up quotas on the host for the container users/filesystems. ** Changed in: lxc (Ubuntu) Importance: Low => Wishlist ** Changed in: lxc (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to lxc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1515615 Title: Disk quotas don't work in LXC containers Status in lxc package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I'm trying to enable disk quotas in LXC container by adding option to its config: lxc.rootfs.options = usrquota After booting the container I'm trying to initialize quotas but getting the following error: r...@test.lxc:~# quotacheck -gum / quotacheck: Cannot stat() mounted device /dev/lxc/test: No such file or directory quotacheck: Mountpoint (or device) / not found or has no quota enabled. quotacheck: Cannot find filesystem to check or filesystem not mounted with quota option.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1515615] Re: Disk quotas don't work in LXC containers
You are right, I have got other problems after adding the device to the container. I see it is possible to get quota working, but it's too tricky and unpredictrable for production use. I'm wondering why LXC is not using real device by default for LVM (XFS etc.)? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to lxc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1515615 Title: Disk quotas don't work in LXC containers Status in lxc package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I'm trying to enable disk quotas in LXC container by adding option to its config: lxc.rootfs.options = usrquota After booting the container I'm trying to initialize quotas but getting the following error: r...@test.lxc:~# quotacheck -gum / quotacheck: Cannot stat() mounted device /dev/lxc/test: No such file or directory quotacheck: Mountpoint (or device) / not found or has no quota enabled. quotacheck: Cannot find filesystem to check or filesystem not mounted with quota option.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1515615] Re: Disk quotas don't work in LXC containers
Ok, I asked because according to mount(2) that option appears to be ignored except for xfs filesystems. If you look at /proc/self/mountinfo you'll see that usrquota is in fact in the list of mount options, so lxc is respecting that. At the moment your problem is that the device backing your rootfs, /dev/lxc/test, does not exist in the container. Once you add that (for instance using a lxc.mount.entry to bind it in or using a lxc.hook.autodev), I suspect you'll run into other problems. I can't get quota to be happy here using a loop-backed rootfs, but a real device should get you further. ** Changed in: lxc (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: lxc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to lxc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1515615 Title: Disk quotas don't work in LXC containers Status in lxc package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I'm trying to enable disk quotas in LXC container by adding option to its config: lxc.rootfs.options = usrquota After booting the container I'm trying to initialize quotas but getting the following error: r...@test.lxc:~# quotacheck -gum / quotacheck: Cannot stat() mounted device /dev/lxc/test: No such file or directory quotacheck: Mountpoint (or device) / not found or has no quota enabled. quotacheck: Cannot find filesystem to check or filesystem not mounted with quota option.

As LXC manpage states the 'lxc.rootfs.optionst' option is "extra mount options to use when mounting the rootfs".
