[Bug 554737] Re: Graphical bootstrap hangs on fsck

2010-04-13 Thread Scott James Remnant
I agree with your diagnosis. It looks like ply_boot_client_flush() is blocking on a write() to plymouthd, which is blocking on a write() back to the process calling that, because the former function only flushes pending writes (in a blocking way) without reading responses I'd say then that the bu

Aha - looks like a pretty classic deadlock then, both ends in a blocking write and nobody reading. Thanks for helping to pin this down. Scott, you know the plymouth protocol code better than I do; can you confirm that this is what's happening here? Is this a plymouth bug, or a mountall bug for m

I can reproduce this by simply touching the file '/forcefsck' and rebooting. Killing either 'plymouth quit' or 'plymouth --mode=boot --attach-to- session' shows gdm again, all though kill 'plymouth --mode=boot --attach-to-session' spams the terminal with the following message: 'mountall: Plymouth
