If the namespaced systemd-journald instance was shut down due to inactivity, we can consider it synchronized, so avoid throwing an error in such case. This should help with the random TEST-44-LOG-NAMESPACE fails where we might try to sync the namespace just after it was shut down: [ 7.682941] H testsuite-44.sh[381]: + systemd-run --wait -p LogNamespace=foobaz echo 'hello world' [ 7.693916] H systemd-journald[389]: Failed to open /dev/kmsg, ignoring: Operation not permitted [ 7.693983] H systemd-journald[389]: Collecting audit messages is disabled.
