Allow clickhouse-local to run without procfs, home directory, and glibc name resolution plugins
Allow running clickhouse-local without procfs, without home directory existing, and without name resolution plugins from glibc. #51518 (Alexey Milovidov).Why it matters
This feature addresses limitations for runningclickhouse-local in minimal or containerized environments where procfs (the process filesystem) may be unavailable, where no home directory exists, or where the glibc name resolution plugins are not present. It increases the portability and usability of clickhouse-local in such constrained setups.How to use it
Users can runclickhouse-local as usual without needing procfs mounted, a home directory, or glibc name resolution plugins. No additional configuration is required to benefit from this improvement.
