[Bug 1814373] Re: storage / luks / dmsetup regressed (or got better) on ppc64le

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package systemd - 229-4ubuntu21.22

---------------
systemd (229-4ubuntu21.22) xenial; urgency=medium

  [ Dan Streetman ]
  * d/t/systemd-fsckd, d/t/cmdline-upstart-boot:
    - skip on s390x; requires grub (LP: #1830477)
  * d/p/ask-password-prevent-buffer-overrow-when-reading-fro.patch:
    - prevent buffer overflow when reading keyring (LP: #1814373)

  [ Dimitri John Ledkov ]
  * Specify Ubuntu's Vcs-Git

  [ Balint Reczey ]
  * Append /snap/bin to default PATH.
    Snapd ships snapd-env-generator, but systemd does not not support
    environment generators. Hard-coding /snap/bin is less risky than
    backporting environment generator support and since snaps are considered
    to be first class packages on Ubuntu /snap/bin can safely added to
    the default PATH. (LP: #1771858)

  [ Ioanna Alifieraki ]
  * d/p/systemctl-Replace-check_one_unit-by-get_state_one_un.patch
    - Backport upstream PR#2768 needed for next patch
  * d/p/systemctl-load-unit-if-needed-in-systemctl-is-active.patch
    - Backport upstream PR#7997 to fix alias service reports inactive while
      aliased is active (LP: #1828892)

Bug description:
  in disco proposed with new systemd and v4.19 kernel it appears that
  dmsetup / cryptsetup storage either got better or worse.

  Devices take very long to activate, and sometimes remain in use during
  test clean up.

  This leads to udisks autopkgtest failing on ppc64le and systemd's
  "storage" autopkgtest is also failing.

  I've tried to make ppc64le test more resilient, but it's still odd
  that it became unstable in disco, and used to be rock solid on
  ppc64le.

  sru template for systemd upload:

  [impact]
  buffer overflow can cause memory corruption; this is seen in failed autopkgtests

  [test case]
  see comment 6

  [regression potential]
  the patch is minimal and clearly correct; however the regression potential is around invalid/corrupted keys read from the keyring.
