** Description changed: + [Impact] + + * On some image types, systemd-detect-virt might be missing + + [Test Case] + + * $ sudo systemd-detect-virt + + Should print a word. + + If it prints "no such file or directory" it is buggy. + + Best reproduced on initrdless boot, public cloud, where kernel flavour + is switched, such as GCP groovy or AWS EC2 groovy. However other image + types might be affected too. + + Backporting the change to all series, in case there are other places + which invoke undivert_grub multiple times in a row. + + [Where problems could occur] + + * Hopefully, systemd-detect-virt undivert is now correct. Issues might + happen in case systemd is not meant to be installed and yet the file + remains on disk; or if the diversion is not removed still. Resulting in + incorrect runtime behaviour. + + * For the images where this is fixed, systemd-detect-virt will now + start working correctly. Thus may trigger automation to run that relied + on missing systemd-detect-virt and thus previously did not execute. + + [Other Info] + + * Original bug report + + ubuntu/images/hvm-ssd/ubuntu-groovy-20.10-arm64-server-20201022.1 ubuntu@ip-172-31-30-199:~$ dpkg -S systemd-detect-virt systemd: /usr/bin/systemd-detect-virt systemd: /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/systemd-detect-virt systemd: /usr/share/man/man1/systemd-detect-virt.1.gz ubuntu@ip-172-31-30-199:~$ ls /usr/bin/systemd-detect-virt ls: cannot access '/usr/bin/systemd-detect-virt': No such file or directory - - Since livecd-rootfs plays with diversions of this file it looks suspicious, but I have not fully triaged the problem. + Since livecd-rootfs plays with diversions of this file it looks + suspicious, but I have not fully triaged the problem. LXD image for amd64 seems to be ok: ubuntu 20.10 amd64 (release) (20201022.1)
