Hello Gauthier, or anyone else affected, Accepted systemd into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/237-3ubuntu10.53 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: New => 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/1952599 Title: virt: Support detection for ARM64 Hyper-V guests (fixed upstream) 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 Hirsute: New Status in systemd source package in Impish: Fix Committed Status in systemd source package in Jammy: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] * The detection of Microsoft Hyper-V VMs is done by cpuid currently, however there is no cpuid on ARM64. And since ARM64 is now a supported architecture for Microsoft Hyper-V guests[0], then introduce a more generic way to detect whether a guest is running as a Hyper-V guest: check if /sys/class/dmi/id/product_version starts with "Hyper-V". * This bug has already been fixed upstream[1][2] [Test Plan] * While changes have been made in the kernel for ARM64 on Hyper-V, there is no way to start an ARM64 VM on Hyper-V at the moment. Thus we just want to make sure no regression is introduced. * start an Hyper-V amd64 VM and make sure "systemd-detect-virt" still return MSFT (should still rely on cpuid here) [Where problems could occur] * The main risk is for the system to detect Hyper-V virt erroneously. An issue was reported upstream after the first commit was merged[3]. For this reason, systemd is now looking for "Hyper-V" (in /sys/class/dmi/id/product_version) and not "Microsoft" (in /sys/class/dmi/id/bios_vendor) * This change might also break virt detection on hyper-v AMD64. That's why we need testing. However, AMD64 virt detection should still rely on cpuid instead of DMI as cpuid takes priority over DMI.
