Description Marius Vollmer 2013-10-31 14:39:07 UTC 
Created attachment 88408 [details]
logind: use correct "who" enum values with KillUnit.

systemd 208-4 in Fedora 20.

loginctl kill-user fails reliably with

    Failed to issue method call: Input/output error

with this in the journal:

    Failed to issue method call: Invalid argument
    Failed to stop unit user-1000.slice: Input/output error

This happens because user_kill in login-user.c passes "process" or "cgroup" to the systemd KillUnit method, while the latter expects "main", "control", or "all".

The attached patch fixes this.  I am not sure whether to use "main" or "control" for KILL_LEADER, though.

Any news?
Comment 2 Lennart Poettering 2013-11-20 21:45:31 UTC 
Fixed in git (during the libsystemd-bus conversion). 

Thanks!
