[Bug 1840347] Re: Ceph 12.2.12 restarts services during upgrade

[Łukasz Zemczak]

Hello Kellen, or anyone else affected,

Accepted ceph into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ceph/12.2.12-0ubuntu0.18.04.3 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 and change the tag from
verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-bionic. 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: ceph (Ubuntu Bionic)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Upgrading from ceph on Ubuntu 18.04 causes the ceph-osd services to be
  restarted without prompting.

  This appears to be in the configure section on the ceph-common,postinst:
  # Automatically added by dh_systemd_start/11.1.6ubuntu2
  if [ "$1" = "configure" ] || [ "$1" = "abort-upgrade" ] || [ "$1" = "abort-deconfigure" ] || [ "$1" = "abort-remove" ] ; then
          if [ -d /run/systemd/system ]; then
                  systemctl --system daemon-reload >/dev/null || true
                  if [ -n "$2" ]; then
                          _dh_action=restart
                  else
                          _dh_action=start
                  fi
                  deb-systemd-invoke $_dh_action 'ceph.target' >/dev/null || true
          fi
  fi
  # End automatically added section

  This is a change of behaviour compare to debhelper 9.
  --restart-after-upgrade is the default in compat 10.

  The expected behavior during a package upgrade is to leave all the
  ceph service states unmodified. They should not be enabled/disabled or
  stopped/started.

  [Test Case]
  * Check pid of ceph-osd (before upgrade)
  * sudo apt-get update
  * sudo apt-get upgrade
  * Check pid of ceph-osd (after upgrade)

  If the pid changes, it means ceph-osd has been restarted, and the
  restart or stop/start has been exercised.

  [Potential Regression]

  Low, the desire is to control the precise timing of the restart.

  The larger context is that there may multiple updates (in this case
  kernel) and one want a single stop/start when the reboot occurred, not
  2 (1 due to ceph postinst and 1 for the reboot (to load new kernel)
  for instance).

  The goal is for the admin to choose when (and which) ceph services
  move to the new code level, after upgrading the package.

  [Other Information]

  Ubuntu ceph package uses a more modern version of dh (10) as oppose to
  ceph upstream which uses dh 9[0]. Ceph package also doesn't exclude
  any ceph services like Ubuntu does[1]

  Upstream ceph doesn't have the restart behaviour because they are not
  there yet (dh 10),but they are likely to take the same road as we do
  as they upgrade debhelper.
