--------------- cloud-init (0.7.8-49-g9e904bb-0ubuntu1~16.04.2) xenial-proposed; urgency=medium * cherry-pick 18203bf: disk_setup: Use sectors as unit when formatting MBR disks with sfdisk. (LP: #1460715) * cherry-pick 6e92c5f: net/cmdline: Consider ip= or ip6= on command line not only ip= (LP: #1639930) * cherry-pick 8c6878a: tests: fix assumptions that expected no eth0 in system. (LP: #1644043) * cherry-pick 2d2ec70: OpenStack: extend physical types to include hyperv, hw_veb, vhost_user.

Engineering Team, which is subscribed to cloud-init. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1639930 Title: initramfs network configuration ignored if only ip6= on kernel command line Status in cloud-init: Fix Committed Status in MAAS: New Status in cloud-init package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in cloud-init source package in Xenial: Fix Released Status in cloud-init source package in Yakkety: In Progress Bug description: === Begin SRU Template === [Impact] On a system booted with both ip6= and ip= on the kernel command line cloud-init will raise an exception and fail to process user-data and have its normal affect on boot. That is because cloud-init previously raised an exception when more than one file in /run/net*.conf declared the same DEVICE. Changes to isc-dhcp and initramfs-tools have changed their behavior and cloud-init has to adjust to allow DEVICE6= and DEVICE= in separate files. [Test Case] Boot a system on a network with both ipv4 and ipv6 dhcp servers, and pass kernel command line with: ip=dhcp ip6=dhcp [Regression Potential] Regression seems unlikely as this is relaxing a check. Where previously an exception would have been raised, cloud-init will now go on. So it seems most likely, something that didn't work before (due to raised exception) would now still not work, but with failures. That is not expected, but that would likely be where regressions were found. === End SRU Template === In changes made under bug 1621615 (specifically a1cdebdea), we now expect that there may be a 'ip6=' argument on the kernel command line. The changes made did not test the case where there is 'ip6=' and no 'ip='. The code currently will return with no network configuration found if there is only ip6=...
