Bug description:
[impact]
systemd may leak sessions, leaving empty cgroups around as well as
abandoned session scopes.
[test case]
on a system where the user has a ssh key that allows noninteractive
login to localhost, and also has noninteractive sudo, run:
$ for i in {1..100}; do sudo -b -i -u ubuntu ssh localhost -- sleep 1;
done; for i in {1..20}; do echo 'Reloading...'; sudo systemctl daemon-
reload; done
check the sessions to see there have been leaked sessions:
$ loginctl list-sessions
SESSION UID USER SEAT TTY
1 1000 ubuntu ttyS0
350 1000 ubuntu
351 1000 ubuntu
360 1000 ubuntu
...
to verify the sessions were leaked, clear them out with:
$ echo '' | sudo tee
/sys/fs/cgroup/unified/user.slice/user-1000.slice/session-*.scope/cgroup.events
that should result in all the leaked sessions being cleaned up.
[regression potential]
issues during systemd pid1 reexec/reload, or issues while cleaning up
sessions, including leaking sessions/cgroups
[scope]
this is needed for all releases
upstream bug linked above, and upstream PR:

[original description]
On a system that is monitored via telegraf I found many abandoned
systemd session which I believe are created by a potential race where
systemd is reloading unit files and at the same time a user is
connecting to the system via ssh or is executing the su command.
The simple reproducer
$ for i in {1..100}; do sleep 0.2; ssh localhost sudo systemctl
daemon-reload & ssh localhost sleep 1 & done
Wait > 1 second
$ jobs -p | xargs --verbose --no-run-if-empty kill -KILL
To clean out STOPPED jobs and
$ systemctl status --all 2> /dev/null | grep --before-context 3
abandoned
will produce something similar to
│ ├─ 175 su - ubuntu
│ ├─ 178 -su
│ ├─62375 systemctl status --all
│ └─62376 grep --color=auto --before-context 3 abandoned
