Status in apparmor package in Ubuntu: New Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in lxd package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Setup: - Xenial host - lxd guests with Trusty, Xenial, ... - add a LXD profile to allow kvm [3] (inspired by stgraber) - spawn KVM guests in the LXD guests using the different distro release versions - guests are based on the uvtool default template which has a serial console [4] Issue: - guest starting with serial device gets blocked by apparmor and killed on creation - This affects at least ppc64el and x86 (s390x has no serial concept that would match) - This appeared in our usual checks on -proposed releases so maybe we can/should stop something? Last good was "Apr 5, 2017 10:40:50 AM" first bad one "Apr 8, 2017 5:11:22 AM" Background: We use this setup for a while and it was working without a change on our end. Also the fact that it still works in the Trusty LXD makes it somewhat suspicious. Therefore I'd assume an SRUed change in LXD/Kernel/Apparmor might be the reason and open this bug to get your opinion on it. You can look into [1] and search for uvt-kvm create in it.

While we surely don't have the "same" issue the debugging on the namespacing might be worth as it could be related.
