Exec2 reports real RSS, fixes mountinfo permissions

By RepoJournal · Filed · About HashiCorp

The exec2 driver now reports actual RSS memory usage and fixes a sandboxing bug that silently blocked reads of /proc/self/mountinfo for approved workloads.

Nomad exec2 tasks finally report RSS in memory stats [1]. The driver read cgroup v2 `memory.stat` but only extracted the file field (page cache) and never the anon field, the cgroups v2 equivalent of RSS, so RSS was always zero and the Nomad UI/API showed no Memory Stats section for exec2 tasks. It now extracts the anon value and reports real RSS.

The same contributor fixed a permission bug where workloads under exec2 received `Permission denied` reading `/proc/self/mountinfo` even when the path was listed in the task's unveil config [2]. No Landlock violations appeared in the audit log; the access was blocked from within the sandboxing layer itself. The fix merges that path into the allowed set, unblocking applications like Cassandra and DSE on RHEL 9 and Ubuntu.

The TFE provider adds the Site Auditor SCIM group mapping and migrates `tfe_scim_settings` to go-tfe/v2 [3]. The resource and data source now run on the v2 client, and new `site_auditor_group_scim_id` and `site_auditor_group_display_name` attributes mirror the existing `site_admin_group_*` pattern, so operators can link a SCIM group to the Site Auditor role released in Terraform Enterprise 2.1.0.

Helios Design System is adding two MCP tools to expose its documentation to AI assistants [4]. `search_docs` provides full-text search (BM25 ranked) across the bundled docs, and a second read tool retrieves content, letting AI clients answer questions against the HDS website directly.
