[Bug 1534311] Re: Excessive warnings regarding stat()ing of cgroup filesystems

[Paul White]

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all
reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago
and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.

Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial) reached end-of-standard-support on April 29, 2021.

Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported when
using a currently supported release of Ubuntu? Please let us know if you
do otherwise this report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days
time.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.

Title:
  Excessive warnings regarding stat()ing of cgroup filesystems

Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
  Incomplete
Status in lsof package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Every invocation of lsof results in 24 lines of warnings being printed
  to stderr. This is excessive and, at least for my use cases, not
  useful information.
