Public bug reported: SRU Justification
Impact: shiftfs is built into the kernel, but there's no need for it to be built-in. It seems this was by mistake. Fix: Make it a module instead. Also add it to the generic inclusion list so that it is usable with linux-virtual. Regression Potential: Minimal, see testing results below. Test Case: Boot with shitfs built as a module and confirm that lxd still works with shiftfs. I have done this and confirmed that lxd still works as expected. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Assignee: Seth Forshee (sforshee) Status: In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1824354 Title: Make shiftfs a module rather than built-in Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: SRU Justification Impact: shiftfs is built into the kernel, but there's no need for it to be built-in.
