  dhclient does not remain running on boot

Bug description:
  Not sure whether this is a systemd or ifupdown issue. I just happened to 
notice today for a Wily VM (set up from server iso) that I failed to get a DNS 
resolution for a VM I started earlier the day. DNS updates in my case are 
related to DHCP updates. And on the DHCP/DNS server I noticed that the IP 
address had been removed at some point. Looking at the VM, I find no dhclient 
being started. When I manually run ifdown and ifup on the interface this does 
happen. But not whenever I boot.
  Curious about this I also checked a Vivid VM (also server install) and this 
looks the same. However for Vivid this seems fixed in the latest versions.

  Network config in /etc/network/interfaces:
  auto eth0
  iface eth0 inet dhcp

  Expected result:
  dhclient running for eth0

  Actual result after boot:
  No dhclient process is running.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1466790] Re: dhclient does not remain running on boot

2015-07-16 Thread Launchpad Bug Tracker
This bug was fixed in the package systemd - 222-2ubuntu1

---
systemd (222-2ubuntu1) wily; urgency=medium

  * Merge with Debian unstable. Remaining Ubuntu changes:
- Hack to support system-image read-only /etc, and modify files in
  /etc/writable/ instead.
- Keep our much simpler udev maintainer scripts (all platforms must
  support udev, no debconf).
- initramfs init-bottom: If LVM is installed, settle udev,
  otherwise we get missing LV symlinks. Workaround for LP #1185394.
- Add debian/udev.lvm2.init: Dummy SysV init script to satisfy insserv
  dependencies to lvm2 which is handled with udev rules in Ubuntu.
- Add debian/udev.lvm2.service to avoid running the dummy lvm2 init
  script.
- Provide shutdown fallback for upstart. (LP: #1370329)
- debian/extra/ifup@.service: Additionally run for auto class. We don't
  really support allow-hotplug in Ubuntu at the moment, so we need to
  deal with auto devices appearing after /etc/init.d/networking start
  already ran. (LP: #1374521) Also run ifup in the background during boot,
  to avoid blocking network.target. (LP: #1425376)
- ifup@.service: Drop dependency on networking.service (i. e.
  /etc/init.d/networking), and merely ensure that /run/network exists.
  This avoids unnecessary dependencies/waiting during boot and dependency
  cycles if hooks wait for other interfaces to come up (like ifenslave
  with bonding interfaces). (LP: #1414544)
- Add Get-RTC-is-in-local-time-setting-from-etc-default-rc.patch: In
  Ubuntu we currently keep the setting whether the RTC is in local or UTC
  time in /etc/default/rcS UTC=yes|no, instead of /etc/adjtime.
  (LP: #1377258)
- Put session scopes into all cgroup controllers. This makes unprivileged
  user LXC containers work under systemd. (LP: #1346734)
- systemctl: Don't forward telinit u to upstart. This works around
  upstart's Restart() always reexec'ing /sbin/init on Restart(), even if
  that changes to point to systemd during the upgrade. This avoids running
  systemd during a dist-upgrade. (LP: #1430479)
- Drop hwdb-update dependency from udev-trigger.service, which got
  introduced in v219-stable. This causes udev and plymouth to start too
  late and isn't really needed in Ubuntu yet as we don't support stateless
  systems yet and handle hwdb.bin updates through dpkg triggers. This can
  be dropped again with initramfs-tools 0.117.
- Lower Breaks: to plymouth version which has the udev inotify fix in
  Ubuntu.
- Lower apparmor Breaks: to the Ubuntu version that dropped $remote_fs.
- Change systemd-sysv's conflicts to upstart-sysv. (LP: #1422681)

Upgrade fixes, keep until 16.04 LTS release:
- systemd Conflicts/Replaces/Provides systemd-services.
- Remove obsolete systemd-logind upstart job.
- Clean up obsolete /etc/udev/rules.d/README.
- systemd.postinst: Migrate mountall specific fstab options to standard
  util-linux nofail option.

  * ifup@.service: Run ifup for auto class in ExecStart instead of
ExecStartPost, as it spawns a long-running dhclient daemon which we can
only do in ExecStart. (LP: #1466790)

systemd (222-3) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium

  * systemd/udev postinst: Avoid The group [...] already exists as a system
group. Exiting. warnings. (LP: #1475094)

systemd (222-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Adam Conrad ]
  * debian/udev-udeb.install: Install new bits for net.ifnames (LP: #1473542)
  * debian/extra/initramfs-tools/hooks/udev: Do the same for initramfs-tools.

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * emergency.service: Wait for plymouth to shut down. Fixes invisible
emergency shell with plymouth running endlessly. (LP: #1471258)
  * Add networkd autopkgtest. Covers basic DHCP on IPv4 and IPv4+6 on a veth
device.

  [ Michael Biebl ]
  * Bump package priorities of systemd and systemd-sysv to important to match
what has been used in the Debian archive since Jessie.
  * Drop scsi_wait_scan hack from the udev initramfs-tools script. This Linux
kernel module has been broken since 2.6.30 and as a result was removed in
3.5. The Debian Jessie kernel no longer ships this module.
(Closes: #752775)
  * Drop libsystemd-journald-dev and libsystemd-id128-dev. There are no
reverse dependencies left and we want to avoid new packages picking up
a build dependency on those obsolete transitional packages.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1466790] Re: dhclient does not remain running on boot

2015-07-09 Thread Stefan Bader
I think I may have a clue now what the problem is. Incidentally on my
bare-metal servers the network interface seems to be brought up by
something else than the ifup@.service. The status there reports it
already up when the service runs. The same seems to be happening to MAAS
instances after initial deployment. On first login dhclient is not
running but after reboot it is, though then again the ifup@.service was
not starting the interface.

The problem looks to be that systemd acts differently on ExecStart and 
ExecStart[Pre|Post] elements. In Vivid we still had only a ExecStart element 
which was a shell  command running two ifup and some conditional ifquery 
command. In Wily this changed into a ExecStart which is ifup for hotplug and 
two ExecStartPost which are a second ifup (but this time for auto class) and an 
ifquery. The interface is brought up by the second ifup (as it is set to auto), 
but it seems systemd does not check/handle any processes started up in the 
background of a ExecStartPost.
So one way that fixed the dhclient issue was to exchange the hotplug and auto 
ifup calls, so auto was done in the ExecStart call. But that would only lead to 
problems if there was ever an interface in the hotplug class.

What seems to work for me (not sure this is all valid) is to make the
service oneshot and have multiple ExecStart elements, like this:

[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/sbin/ifup --allow=hotplug %I
ExecStart=/sbin/ifup --allow=auto %I
ExecStart=/sbin/ifquery --state %I
ExecStop=/sbin/ifdown %I
RemainAfterExit=true

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1466790] Re: dhclient does not remain running on boot

2015-06-30 Thread Stefan Bader
Seems on bare-metal servers I have, I do not see this. The VM as well as
well as bare-metal server of the team mate I asked are booting rather
quickly. That as side note. I upgraded the VM today and now run on
systemd/udev 221-1ubuntu2.

Still the same. One observation that looks odd: There is a pid file in
/run: /run/dhclient.eth0.pid which contains PID 684. However in the
journal as well as in systemctl status ifup@eth0 there is a different
PID for dhclient. The pid file is re-created each boot (/run is tmpfs
and I also deliberately deleted it before reboot). From the number it
seems the file is from a later start of dhclient. But that seems to have
left no tracks in the log at all.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1466790] Re: dhclient does not remain running on boot

2015-06-30 Thread Stefan Bader
Changed the disk from virtio to IDE without change. Added debug to the
kernel options and got a bit more info in journal but it looks odd.
There is a dhclient with PID 496 early on. Which does not seem to exit.
But then later on there is a 699 getting killed which matches the pid
file but never seems to be started.

Could be a gap from pivoting root but I cannot really say how to tell
for sure.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1466790] Re: dhclient does not remain running on boot

2015-06-29 Thread Martin Pitt
 Could it be that something about keeping daemons started during ifup
running be accidentally dropped?

Not that I know of, and in my wily VMs dhclient runs happily.

I don't know whether ifupdown has some useful debugging facilities. I
tried adding /usr/bin/strace -fvvs1024 -o /run/ifup.trace to
/etc/init.d/networking, but it doesn't give much information (in
particular, it doesn't end up calling dhclient). Do you get anything
useful if you set VERBOSE=yes in /etc/default/networking and reboot?

Title:
  dhclient does not remain running on boot

Status in ifupdown package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Not sure whether this is a systemd or ifupdown issue. I just happened to 
notice today for a Wily VM (set up from server iso) that I failed to get a DNS 
resolution for a VM I started earlier the day. DNS updates in my case are 
related to DHCP updates. And on the DHCP/DNS server I noticed that the IP 
address had been removed at some point. Looking at the VM, I find no dhclient 
being started. When I manually run ifdown and ifup on the interface this does 
happen. But not whenever I boot.
  Curious about this I also checked a Vivid VM (also server install) and this 
looks the same. However for Vivid this seems fixed in the latest versions.

  Network config in /etc/network/interfaces:
  auto eth0
  iface eth0 inet dhcp

  Expected result:
  dhclient running for eth0

  Actual result after boot:
  No dhclient process is running.
