The verification of the Stable Release Update for systemd has completed successfully and the package is now being released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regressions.

And this leads to unresponsive devices in the system. Specifically, the crash looks like: Dec 16 12:51:21 TREND-24-AF-7A systemd[1]: Started Time & Date Service. Dec 16 12:51:24 TREND-24-AF-7A systemd[1]: systemd-resolved.service: Main process exited, code=killed, status=11/SEGV [...] Dec 16 12:53:47 TREND-24-AF-7A systemd-resolved[2591]: Assertion 'DNS_TRANSACTION_IS_LIVE(q->state)' failed at src/resolve/resolved-dns-query.c:520, function dns_query_complete(). Aborting. Dec 16 12:53:47 TREND-24-AF-7A systemd[1]: systemd-resolved.service: Main process exited, code=killed, status=6/ABRT [ Test Plan ] The exact steps to reproduce this issue are still not known. But we see this crash only in Static IP Addressing mode enabled, where systemd-resolved is enabled for LLMNR service. But we were not able to see this crash in DHCP mode. Steps to reproduce: 1) Powercycle the device. 2) Soft-reboot. It was also pointed out by Brian Murray that this error in the Ubuntu error tracker is likely the same bug: https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/3cb08ae5efaa4d8c6ce992f7cebd2751ae3f168f. Therefore, we would expect to stop seeing this error in the tracker as a result of this patch. [ Where problems could occur ] The patch[1] simply disables the timer event source for a DNS query when the struct representing that query is free'd. I cannot see any realistic regression potential, because if the timer event fired on the DNS query after it has been free'd, then that would be this bug. I.e. no working code should be relying on the timer event source still being around after the query is free'd.
