procps (2:4.0.4-8ubuntu1) questing; urgency=medium

  * Merge from Debian unstable (LP: #2112060). Remaining changes:
    - d/p/0010-testsuite-ps-etime-ELAPSED-doesn-t-match-full-format.patch:
      Fix test failure (FTBFS) in testsuite/ps.test/ps_output.exp due to
      invalid regex match inside LXD containers.
    - debian/sysctl.d (Ubuntu-specific):
      + 10-console-messages.conf: stop low-level kernel messages on console.
      + 10-kernel-hardening.conf: add the kptr_restrict setting
      + 10-ipv6-privacy.conf: add a file to sysctl.d to apply the defaults
        for IPv6 privacy extensions for interfaces. (LP#176125, LP#841353)
      + 10-magic-sysrq.conf: Disable most magic sysrq by default, allowing
      critical sync, remount, reboot functions. (LP#194676, LP#1025467)
      + 10-network-security.conf: enable rp_filter.
      + 10-ptrace.conf: describe new PTRACE setting.
      + 10-zeropage.conf: safe mmap_min_addr value for graceful fall-back.
        for armhf, and arm64.
      + 10-qemu.conf.s390x for qemu.
      + 10-bufferbloat.conf: set default qdisc to fq_codel
      + 10-map-count.conf: Increase vm.max_map_count to 1048576
    - ignore_erofs.patch: Same as ignore_eaccess but for the case
      where part of /proc is read/only.
      - Adjust logic due to rc no longer being propagated (LP#1903351)
    - ignore_eaccess.patch: If we get eaccess when opening a sysctl
      file for writing, don't error out. Otherwise package upgrades
      can fail, especially in containers.
      - Adjust logic due to rc no longer being propagated (LP#1903351)
    - Add basic autopkgtest to validate sysctl-defaults (LP#1962038)
    - d/t/stack-limit: add basic autopkgtest to validate limits
  * Dropped, included in Debian:
    - d/p/ps-Don-t-crash-when-using-short-option.patch:
      Fix ps crash issue when using short option
  * New changes:
    - debian/sysctl.d: ship configs in /usr, with higher priority
      This ensures that Ubuntu's defaults take precedence over
      50-default.conf from linux-sysctl-defaults. (LP: #2108979)
    - d/t/stack-limit: call 'pgrep systemd' instead of 'pgrep bash'
      The autopkgtest currently fails because there is no bash session, and
      pgrep returns non-zero. Use systemd because that will match for pid1.
    - d/tests: make sysctl-defaults test comprehensive
