Package: release-notes Dear maintainers,
Systemd, in buster, will ship the file /lib/modprobe.d/systemd.conf,
which contains the following:
options bonding max_bonds=0
# Do the same for dummy0.
options dummy numdummies=0
This breaks any configuration that an administrator could have added to
/etc/modprobe.d regarding the dummy and bonding modules.
For instance, a file in /etc/modprobe.d/dummy.conf containing:
options dummy numdummies=1
Will result in the following being executed by modprobe:
insmod /lib/modules/4.19.0-5-amd64/kernel/drivers/net/dummy.ko
numdummies=1 numdummies=0
And the original configuration will be overridden.
The only way to force modprobe to use local configuration is to rename
the /etc/modprobe.d/dummy.conf file to /etc/modprobe.d/systemd.conf.
I thinks this should be documented in the release notes as admins would
need to be aware of that.
Best,
--
