Package: ifupdown Version: 0.7.53.1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
When ifup spawns a new process like wpa_supplicant (e.g. when using the config pasted below), then the spawned wpa_supplicant is created in the current cgroup. This is problematic if ifup/ifdown is executed from another service (e.g. a configuration management tool) as stopping the service then also causes wpa_supplicant to stop (systemctl stop terminates all processes in the same cgroup), possibly disrupting the network connection. Regards Simon auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp wpa-driver wired wpa-key-mgmt IEEE8021X wpa-ap-scan 0 wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
