[Bug 1839290] Re: systemd doesn't restart a service after crashes

[Łukasz Zemczak]

Hello Eugene, or anyone else affected,

Accepted systemd into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/229-4ubuntu21.28 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
xenial to verification-done-xenial. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-xenial. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu Xenial)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Committed

** Tags added: verification-needed-xenial

  systemd doesn't restart a service after crashes

Status in systemd source package in Bionic:

Status in systemd source package in Disco:

Bug description:
  [impact]

  when a service configured to restart crashes, under certain
  configurations, that service is not correctly restarted.

  [test case]

  see comment 8

  [regression potential]

  this changes the job mode of manager-triggered restarts to 'replace'
  any existing queued job(s), instead of failing if there are queued
  job(s).  thus any regressions would occur when a service fails, that
  is configured to restart on failure.

  [scope]

  This is needed only for Xenial and Bionic.

  this is fixed with commit 03ff2dc71ecb09272d728d458498b44f7f132f51
  which is included already in Eoan.

  Fixed in Disco with the backported v240 patch from
  https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/677b4cc753f183731fc54fcb68ad46f806c394bc
