Looks like I can at least reproduce the issue on an arm64 Canonistack machine, utilizing an armhf container:

It looks like a dnsmasq (security-)update was pushed to Bionic++ on 2021-06-02 – about the same time that this test started failing on Bionic++ ... I wonder if this might somehow be related? ... need to further investigate. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1931088 Title: boot-and-services tests fails in impish on armhf (248.3) Status in Auto Package Testing: Incomplete Status in dnsmasq package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in gdm3 package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in glibc package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in isc-dhcp package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in dnsmasq source package in Impish: Incomplete Status in gdm3 source package in Impish: Incomplete Status in glibc source package in Impish: Incomplete Status in isc-dhcp source package in Impish: Incomplete Status in systemd source package in Impish: Confirmed Bug description: Systemd 248.3-1ubuntu1 is rather new, but had 5 successful tests on armhf before now slipping into a bad mode. Now it seems all tests failed in boot-and-services by hanging until killed by VirtSubproc.Timeout of autokgtest. The last [1] test log has a bit more, it shows a python stack overflow ``` VirtSubproc.Timeout Fatal Python error: Cannot recover from stack overflow.

No one replied to my pings yet, but maybe that means someone is already debugging this and had enabled some debugging? By running the same in armhf container on arm64 VM on canonistack I've seen no issues.
