Package: systemd Version: 243-6 Severity: normal When Xorg is closed forcibly on my machine (I noticed when it probably crashed, but for reproduction `sudo pkill -KILL`ed it), all the logged in user's processes get killed, as observed in a running `tmux` session.
For comparison (and in accordance with the default KillUserProcesses=no), if the X window manager (i3wm in my case) exits cleanly, the tmux session is kept alive. (When reproducing, make sure using `loginctl` / `loginctl session-status $OLDER_SESSION_ID` that your current tmux session is not part of an older logind session; that'd keep it from being terminated). journalctl shows the following around an Xorg termination: Nov 26 14:43:36 hephaistos sudo[1757962]: pam_unix(sudo:session): session opened for user root by chrysn(uid=0) Nov 26 14:43:36 hephaistos sudo[1757962]: pam_unix(sudo:session): session closed for user root Nov 26 14:43:36 hephaistos at-spi-bus-launcher[1998]: X connection to :0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).

Nov 26 14:43:36 hephaistos systemd-logind[1291]: Removed session 2017. Setting a user to linger using `loginctl enable-linger` had no observable effect on that behavior -- and anyway, `loginctl show-session` displays `KillUserProcesses=no`. The behavior was different on a fresh Buster installation with only tmux installed additionally (both `sudo pkill -KILL wayland` and logging out killed tmux, even though KillUserProcesses=no, but enable-linger prevented killing in both cases). With linger disabled agani and "Gnome on Xorg" as login session, the tmux session survived even a KILL Xorg, as it did with the later installed and tried i3wm. That behavior did not change after an upgrade to sid either (tested with i3 and KILL), so it stands to assume that there is some property my system has gotten in the upgrade path from an original sid installation in August 2018 that led there. (I did no conscious change to the KillUserProcesses settings, and etckeeper shows no change either since the original setup). There's a lot of packages involved, so please let me know if you need any data if only to assign it right, but the log lines of systemd killing processes hopefully justify this initial assignment. -- Package-specific info: (Just in case it's relevant:) $ systemd-delta [MASKED] /etc/systemd/system/iodined.service → /lib/systemd/system/iodined.service [EXTENDED] /lib/systemd/system/rc-local.service → /lib/systemd/system/rc-local.service.d/debian.conf [EXTENDED] /lib/systemd/system/systemd-resolved.service → /lib/systemd/system/systemd-resolved.service.d/resolvconf.conf [EXTENDED] /lib/systemd/system/systemd-timesyncd.service → /lib/systemd/system/systemd-timesyncd.service.d/disable-with-time-daemon.conf 4 overridden configuration files found. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.3.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_WARN, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages systemd depends on: ii adduser 3.118 ii libacl1 2.2.53-5 ii libapparmor1 2.13.3-6 ii libaudit1 1:2.8.5-2 ii libblkid1 2.34-0.1 ii libc6 2.29-3 ii libcap2 1:2.27-1 ii libcryptsetup12 2:2.2.2-1 ii libgcrypt20 1.8.5-3 ii libgnutls30 3.6.10-4 ii libgpg-error0 1.36-7 ii libidn2-0 2.2.0-2 ii libip4tc2 1.8.3-2 ii libkmod2 26-3 ii liblz4-1 1.9.2-2 ii liblzma5 5.2.4-1+b1 ii libmount1 2.34-0.1 ii libpam0g 1.3.1-5 ii libpcre2-8-0 10.32-5+b1 ii libseccomp2 2.4.2-1 ii libselinux1 2.9-3 ii libsystemd0 243-6 ii mount 2.34-0.1 ii util-linux 2.34-0.1 Versions of packages systemd recommends: ii dbus 1.12.16-2 ii libpam-systemd 243-6 Versions of packages systemd suggests: ii policykit-1 0.105-26 pn systemd-container <none> Versions of packages systemd is related to: pn dracut <none> ii initramfs-tools 0.135 ii udev 243-6 -- no debconf information -- To use raw power is to make yourself infinitely vulnerable to greater powers. -- Bene Gesserit axiom
