Hello Simon, or anyone else affected, Accepted systemd into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/237-3ubuntu10.41 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- 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: systemd (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-bionic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1877159 Title: netlink: 'systemd-network': attribute type 5 has an invalid length. Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in systemd source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Status in systemd source package in Eoan: Fix Released Status in systemd source package in Focal: Fix Released Bug description: [impact] systemd-networkd uses incorrect netlink attribute length for wireguard's persistent keepalive interval, which logs error messages from the kernel, and may incorrectly set the parameter.

[regression potential] this adjusts the length of the specific netlink parameter, so any regression would likely relate to incorrectly setting the persistent keepalive interval parameter, or failure to set the parameter. [scope] this is needed only for Bionic. this was fixed upstream in commit 7d0b26a027118ca063780421cb31c74e9d2664ee which was first included in v240, so this is fixed in Eoan and later. Xenial does not include support for wireguard, so this does not apply there. [original description] This morning, our 2 Bionic machine configured with the wireguard's PPA and using systemd-networkd to configure the wireguard tunnel started misbehaving. Why this started just now is unclear ATM but their dmesg was filled with this: validate_nla: 100 callbacks suppressed netlink: 'systemd-network': attribute type 5 has an invalid length. netlink: 'systemd-network': attribute type 5 has an invalid length. netlink: 'systemd-network': attribute type 5 has an invalid length. netlink: 'systemd-network': attribute type 5 has an invalid length. netlink: 'systemd-network': attribute type 5 has an invalid length. netlink: 'systemd-network': attribute type 5 has an invalid length. netlink: 'systemd-network': attribute type 5 has an invalid length. netlink: 'systemd-network': attribute type 5 has an invalid length. netlink: 'systemd-network': attribute type 5 has an invalid length. netlink: 'systemd-network': attribute type 5 has an invalid length. Folks in #systemd mentioned https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/11575 which points to 2 commits missing from Bionic's systemd version: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/7d0b26a027118ca063780421cb31c74e9d2664ee https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/624a47694cad4c87b2e807c32db656f3e9d679c5 Focal's systemd have the above commits. Would it be possible to backport those 2 commits to Bionic?
