[Bug 1880250] Re: Ctrl-C message displayed without any actual disk check
Installed focal Ubuntu desktop .2 media with LUKS full disk encryption. On boot the fsck messages briefly flicker, and then are cleared, then there is smooth transition to gdm. It's a lot better than before, where fsck message would linger forever. It would be ideal to make it flickerfree. Aka delay displaying fsck message if it takes more than 1second and/or there is an update. ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu Focal) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu Groovy) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1880250 Title: Ctrl-C message displayed without any actual disk check To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1880250/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

installed focal daily with LUKS and plymouth 0.9.4git20200323-0ubuntu6.1 ; i could see that on boot the ctrl+c message is there after unlock, briefly, and then cleared. Then i downgraded to 0.9.4git20200323-0ubuntu6 and instead of brief ctrc+c message, it lingers for a lot longer until gdm3 starts. Thus the plymouth portion of the bug is verified. ** Tags removed: verification-needed verification-needed-focal ** Tags added: verification-done verification-done-focal -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1880250 Title: Ctrl-C message displayed without any actual disk check To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1880250/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1880250] Re: Ctrl-C message displayed without any actual disk check
>From my personal POV, I consider the progress bar more important then the >ability to interrupt fsck with CTRL+C. Nowadays, SSDs are much more common and enable_periodic_fsck = 0 has been the default for many years now. So this is much less of an issue today then it was back in 2015, I think. I think text-only boot (without plymouth and without quiet) has a reasonable enough progress report from fsck. Without fsckd, we'd have no progress report in plymouth and quiet text-only boots. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1880250 Title: Ctrl-C message displayed without any actual disk check To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1880250/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1880250] Re: Ctrl-C message displayed without any actual disk check
As for text-only boot: Maybe we could convince upstream to enable verbose mode once an fsck takes longer then say 30s (similar to how the eye-of-cyclon animation kicks in when services take a long time to start). With something like that implemented, dropping fsckd might be an option, I think. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1880250 Title: Ctrl-C message displayed without any actual disk check To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1880250/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1880250] Re: Ctrl-C message displayed without any actual disk check
This patch was worked with upstream and even merged in systemd master. Howwever, after a month, Lennart decided to revert it because he strongly thinks that no feedback on fsck is needed because "everyone have fast SSD disks". (frustrating experience after working for a good 3 months getting upstream agreeing on the design and doing review first). Martin Pitt tried to push it again but there was no way to discuss apparently. We decided that it wasn’t acceptable 5 years ago, especially for desktop and server users, to sit in front on a black screen for minutes in case of spinning disks because a fsck is happening without any feedback that things are progressing (with the risk of the user forcibly shutting down his machine, thinking the boot is stuck).

@rbalint, @didrocks, @mbiebl, we've been carrying the systemd-fsckd custom patch for 5 years now (via Debian)...can we either get it upstreamed, or drop it?

Are you sure about that? Is the footer functionality explicitly bound to fsck or is it more general? I thought (from memory) that it was more general and therefore it's the client's job to clear it.

Plymouth does not clear the footer at the end of fsck.
