Some IRC context: <soren> I'm just trying to understand if (and if so, how) we know that the loopback device is available once we start going through rc2.d/S* scripts. <soren> ..since that used to be the case (given that networking ran at rcS.d/S40) <ttx> ..and some server software kinda expects at least loopback to be up when started. <ttx> for example, rc2.d/S15dnsmasq <slangasek> soren: we don't; it's racy; file a bug on upstart <soren> slangasek: You agree that having lo available in runlevel 2 is a reasonable expectation? <slangasek> soren: yes, everything that rcS did for us before should still be guaranteed <slangasek> unfortunately, switching /half/ of our init system has introduced a few race conditions
