Package: udev Version: 166-1 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system
udev 164 worked fine on my system with both 2.6.32 Debian package and custom 2.6.38-rc-something. Upgrading Debian unstable to udev 166 and linux 2.6.37-2-parisc64-smp breaks the boot with both Debian 2.6.37 and custom kernels that worked before. strace shows the problem to be socket(PF_NETLINK, SOCK_DGRAM|SOCK_CLOEXEC, 15) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) This looks a fine socket call and SOCK_CLOEXEC should not be a problem with current kernels but for some reason udev still fails with it. Not being able to start udev makes the whole boot fail because different services depend on /dev nodes, fsck among them. Trying to start udev from command line after failed boot still fails but I got a strace from it. cat /proc/net/netlink shows several users of netlink but lsof shows no userspace users. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: hppa (parisc64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.37-2-parisc64-smp (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages udev depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.38 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libselinux1 2.0.96-1 SELinux runtime shared libraries ii libudev0 166-1 libudev shared library ii libusb-0.1-4 2:0.1.12-17 userspace USB programming library ii lsb-base 3.2-27 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii util-linux 2.17.2-9.1 Miscellaneous system utilities Versions of packages udev recommends: ii pciutils 1:3.1.7-7 Linux PCI Utilities pn usbutils <none> (no description available) udev suggests no packages. -- debconf information: udev/title/upgrade: udev/reboot_needed: udev/new_kernel_needed: false udev/sysfs_deprecated_incompatibility: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
