As a result the snappy specific code paths are not taken. [Test Case] There are fairly extensive unit tests added to cover the code path that has been added to detect when system is snappy. See the upstream commit link below for that. Those tests run on package build, so the fact that this is in the archive means those have run. In addition to that we will: a.) boot an instance of Ubuntu in lxd with cloud-init from proposed to verify it is not regressed. b.) craft an lxd instance with /etc/os-release that appears to be snappy. and then verify via log inspection that it thinks it is. The test is admittedly superficial, the real end test is having cloud-init inside a ubuntu core image and it recognizing that it is snappy there. That test is much more involved. ## launch an instance $ release=xenial $ ref=$release-proposed $ lxc-proposed-snapshot --proposed --publish $release $ref $ lxc launch $ref $name $ lxc exec $name ## let it boot $ sleep 10 ## check log for warnings $ lxc exec $name -- cat /run/cloud-init/result.json { "v1": { "datasource": "DataSourceNoCloud [seed=/var/lib/cloud/seed/nocloud-net][dsmode=net]", "errors": [] } } $ lxc exec $name -- grep WARN /var/log/cloud-init.log || echo no warnings no warnings ## write to /etc/os-release so it thinks it is Ubuntu core. $ lxc exec $name -- sh -c 'echo ID=ubuntu-core >> /etc/os-release' $ lxc exec $name -- sh -c 'd=/etc/system-image; mkdir -p $d; cd $d; echo ubuntu-core > channel.ini' ## Now clear the instance state so it thinks it is first boot. $ lxc exec $name -- sh -c 'rm -Rf /var/log/cloud-init*' $ lxc exec $name -- sh -xec 'cd /var/lib/cloud; mv seed .x; rm -Rf *; mv .x seed' + cd /var/lib/cloud + mv seed .x + rm -Rf data handlers instance instances scripts sem + mv .x seed $ lxc restart $name $ sleep 10 $ lxc exec $name -- grep "running on snappy" /var/log/cloud-init.log 2017-06-01 20:53:24,346 - cc_apt_configure.py[DEBUG]: Nothing to do: No apt config and running on snappy [Regression Potential] The regression potential would be a.) cloud-init falsely identifies it is running on snappy when it is not. b.) cloud-init does not recognize it is on snappy when it is. [Other Info] Upstream commit at https://git.launchpad.net/cloud-init/commit/?id=4bcc947301b lxc-proposed-snapshot is https://git.launchpad.net/~smoser/cloud-init/+git/sru-info/tree/bin/lxc-proposed-snapshot It publishes an image to lxd with proposed enabled and cloud-init upgraded. === End SRU Template === Recent core snap images (edge channel revision 1886) do not contain the previously known files used to detect that a system is ubuntu core. In this bug, we should collect as many known paths/files/commands so we're hopefully defensive against further changes.
