* hooks/resume: don't generate RESUME config pointing to randomly-crypted swap devices. LP: #1771962. -- Steve Langasek <steve.langa...@ubuntu.com> Fri, 08 Jun 2018 21:29:19 -0700 ** Changed in: initramfs-tools (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to initramfs-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1771962 Title: hanging at boot for about 30 seconds since upgrade to bionic Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in initramfs-tools source package in Bionic: Fix Released Bug description: [SRU Justification] A regression in initramfs-tools causes it to autogenerate config in the initramfs saying to resume from any available swap devices, even if the swap device is ephemeral (i.e. swap encrypted with a random key). This adds an inappropriate 30-second boot delay to any system with randomly-crypted swap, which includes any system that was installed with encrypted home directories in earlier releases. [Test case] 1. Install the ecryptfs-utils package. 2. Enable encrypted swap by running 'sudo ecryptfs-setup-swap'. 3. Run 'update-initramfs -u' to regenerate the initramfs. 4. Reboot. 5. Verify that dmesg shows a 30-second delay before mounting the root filesystem. 6. Install initramfs-tools from bionic-proposed. 7. Reboot. 8. Verify that dmesg no longer shows a 30-second delay before mounting the root filesystem. [Regression potential] This makes changes to shell scripts, and shell is a perilous language. An unnoticed bug could cause all initramfs generation, and thus all kernel installation, to fail for some users. A regression could also cause a user to lose hiberation support that they currently have. [Original description] Since upgrade to Bionic ubuntu is hanging at boot for about 30s. A `dmesg` shows ``` [ 3.407230] clocksource: Switched to clocksource tsc [ 34.632583] EXT4-fs (sda2): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null) ``` This is 100% reproducable and is always 30s minimum. I do not know in which package to report this properly – please excuse me.
