systemd (229-4ubuntu21.2) xenial; urgency=medium
[ Dimitri John Ledkov ]
* udev: Mark ndb devices as inactive until connected. (LP: #696435)
* networkd: in dhcp, change UseMTU default to true, to accept DHCP provided
MTU by default.
(LP: #1717471)
* sysctl: apply parameters in-order, instead of randomly. (LP: #1718444)
* networkd: apply promote_secondaries, to make DHCP lease changes work.
(LP: #1721223)
* shutdown: sync filesystems, before going into a killing spree.
(LP: #1722481)
* sysctl: do not fail, when cannot apply sysctl changes due to read-only
sysfs in containers.
(LP: #1734409)
* networkd,wait-online: add RequiredForOnline to mark mandatory/optional
links for boot.

Title:
systemd-sysctl in Xenial is not obeying the order of the sysctls
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in systemd source package in Xenial:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Impact]
* sysctls are applied out of order
[Test Case]
* Monitor that sysctls are applied in-order, instead of out of order
/ random order.
[Regression Potential]
* Cherrypick of an upstream patch which is present in v232+ and in
use in Ubuntu in later releases. The code changes are minimal,
updating s/Hashmap/OrderedHashmap/ which is implemented and available
in xenial's systemd.

[Other Info]
* Original bug report.
systemd-sysctl in Xenial forces itself over procps by shipping a link
for procps.service to systemd-sysctl.service. However, it does not
obey the order both of the files and also of the sysctls within the
files. Instead it uses a simple hashmap. As it turns out that's fixed
upstream and systemd master uses an ordered hashmap because of this,
which at least preserves order within single files. Traditionally
files in sysctl.d have been prefixed with numbers to ensure an order
and that's now completely non-deterministic on Xenial.
Relevant upstream commit:
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/886cf982d3018f7451f0548dadbc05bd2d583bb6
Note that conf_files_list_nulstr in master sorts the configuration
files using strcmp, so even order of configuration files should be
obeyed.
