Scott, thanks a lot for your investigations, this makes a lot of sense. To be honest I would be rather cautious with backporting the media detection patch. A lot of other layers (gvfs, blkid, udev, etc.) have changed since then, and it is not immediately obvious that this patch would not cause regressions with some media types or situations. My gut feeling is that it is much safer to kill the daemon in the prerm, as you already pointed out. The postinst already does this for upgrades, so we can just copy the script and replace configure with remove. Do you want to prepare an SRU/debdiff yourself, or want me to do it?

[Bug 554718] Re: [MASTER] package policykit-1 0.96-1 failed to install/upgrade: start-stop-daemon: nothing in /proc - not mounted? when system is run from external card
OK, I think I finally have a reasonably good idea of what's going on with this now. I had been focused on udev and udisks, but it turns out that the bug appears to actually be in devicekit-disks. Here's a rough timeline of what happens: 1. During the Karmic-Lucid upgrade, devicekit-disks package is removed, which includes its udev rules (/lib/udev/rules.d/95-devkit-disks.rules). The daemon (devkit-disks-daemon) is still hanging around, however. 2. Later on, during the upgrade, the command 'udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=block --action=change' is issued (it happens to be in udisks). When this happens, devicekit-disks' data items (e.g. DKD_*) are removed from the udev database. 3. The devkit-disks-daemon gets notified that 'sda' has changed. During the change processing, it discovers that 'sda' is a 'removable' device and because the DKD_* udev entries are no longer present, it determines that 'sda' has no media present and then proceeds to perform a force unmount on /dev/sda1. This unsurprisingly results in a broken system. Since devicekit-disks is deprecated, I am thinking that perhaps the simplest fix would be to add a devicekit-disks.prerm that simply stops the daemon before removing the package. I've run the upgrade with the attached devicekit-disks.prerm file and the upgrade completed successfully. Note that udisks does not appear to exhibit this same issue because the media_available logic has been changed. See this change: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/udisks/commit/?id=c8d02e0cc26a7559063b98de05f8a4ee07f1de2b. Perhaps a safer fix would be to backport this change to devicekit-disks (and not rely on the daemon not being running). ** Attachment added: Potential prerm script for devicekit-disks http://launchpadlibrarian.net/52490376/devicekit-disks.prerm ** Changed in: udisks (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed ** Package changed: udisks (Ubuntu) = devicekit-disks (Ubuntu) -- [MASTER] package policykit-1 0.96-1 failed to install/upgrade: start-stop-daemon: nothing in /proc - not mounted? when system is run from external card https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554718 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I don't see anything in udev or udisks which would issue events on bdi devices, and usually they originate from the kernel. Does this also appear in udevadm monitor --kernel? First, shouldn't udev only be issuing 'change' events and not 'remove' events? In general it should mirror whatever the kernel sends, including removal ones. However, in this trigger case if should only synthesize change events, of course. I don't believe that this bdi remove event is originating from udev itself. Second what exactly is 'bdi'? I can't seem to find a lot of information on it. Me neither, http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-bdi was the closest thing I found.

Yes, the bdi event does appear as a kernel event as well. One thing I noticed tonight is that, when things go wrong, /dev/sda also no longer exists. (/dev/sda1, /dev/sda2, and /dev/sda5 do still exist, though.) I'll attach a log of udevd in debug mode when this occurs.

One possibly interesting thing that I've noticed about this is when I look at the output of 'udevadm monitor' while running the 'udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=block --action=change' command which causes /proc to go away, it shows this line (which it doesn't show if I run the 'udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=block --action=change' command any other time): UDEV [1277516625.070541] remove /devices/virtual/bdi/0:21 (bdi) First, shouldn't udev only be issuing 'change' events and not 'remove' events?

I tried that on lucid (install devicekit-disks, devkit-disks --dump, purge, and trigger), and /proc and /sys are still fine. How exactly did you reproduce this? On karmic, before the upgrade? Any other steps than I did? On Karmic I did: dpkg -r devicekit-disks --ignore-depends=devicekit-disks udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=block --action=change ls -l /proc == empty Note that the other key factor seems to be that Ubuntu needs to be installed on disk that is seen as 'removable', e.g. a flash drive.

Further troubleshooting on this...the empty /proc /sys occurs during the karmic-lucid upgrade when udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=block --action=change is called AFTER the devicekit-disks package has been removed.

So this bug could potentially live in either udisks itself (jjust in case it does something really strange with /proc, but usually it doesn't touch those virtual FSes at all), or in mountall (which I believe mounts /proc and /sys in the first place). Can someone who is able to reproduce this please do udisks --monitor-detail 21 | tee /tmp/udisks.log then reproduce the situation with the udevadm trigger --subsystem- match=block --action=change command or upgrading packages, ensuring that /proc is not mounted any more afterwards, and then attach /tmp/udisks.log here?

I experienced what I believe to be this same problem on my desktop machine. My desktop machine is not running on an external card, but it is running on a RAID controller which Ubuntu seems to think is 'removable.' In any event, I have been able to replicate this problem by installing 9.10 on a USB flash drive and then upgrading it to 10.04. After a significant amount of troubleshooting, I have found that things appear to go wrong during the postinstall of the 'udisks' package. Running this line ('udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=block --action=change') in udisks.postinst results in empty /proc and /sys filesystems. Thus, the failure of policykit-1 to install is just a symptom of /proc being empty. I'm still not sure whether this is a bug in udisks or possibly udev, but I guess I'll reassign it to udisks for now. ** Package changed: policykit-1 (Ubuntu) = udisks (Ubuntu) -- [MASTER] package policykit-1 0.96-1 failed to install/upgrade: start-stop-daemon: nothing in /proc - not mounted? when system is run from external card https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554718 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
