Hello Ioanna, or anyone else affected, Accepted systemd into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/237-3ubuntu10.45 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-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/1911187 Title: scheduled reboot reboots immediately if dbus or logind is not available Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in systemd source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Status in systemd source package in Focal: Fix Committed Status in systemd source package in Groovy: Fix Committed Bug description: [IMPACT] When, for whatever reason, logind or dbus is not available scheduled reboot reboots the machine immediately. From the sources it seems that this is intended : https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/master/src/systemctl/systemctl-logind.c#L318 However, I report this as a bug since this is against the logic of a scheduled reboot; if someone schedules a reboot they want the system to reboot at the specified time not immediately. There has been a discussion upstream ( https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/17575 ) and a PR ( https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/18010 ). Upstream community is not willing to accept the patch but debian is. I open this bug to to pull the patch into Ubuntu once it lands in debian. [TEST PLAN] The simpler reproducer is to disable dbus to imitate the real world case. # systemctl stop dbus.service # systemctl stop dbus.socket # shutdown +1140 -r "REBOOT!" Failed to set wall message, ignoring: Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.login1': timed out (service_start_timeout=25000ms) Failed to call ScheduleShutdown in logind, proceeding with immediate shutdown: Connection timed out Connection to groovy closed by remote host. Connection to groovy closed. [WHERE PROBLEM COULD OCCUR] This patch changes the behaviour of scheduled reboot in case logind or dbus has failed. Originally, if logind is not available (call to logind bus fails https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/master/src/systemctl/systemctl-logind.c#L319) it proceeds with immediate shutdown. This patch changes this behaviour and instead of shutting down it does nothing. The actual regression potential is a user asking for a reboot and not getting it, so the largest regression potential is any existing users (human or programmatic) that are requesting a scheduled shutdown but not checking the return value for error. Any other regression would likely result in the system incorrectly not rebooted, or incorrectly scheduled for reboot. [OTHER] This is now fixed in H, currently affects B,G,F.
