Attached debdiff for hirsute. ** Description changed:
[IMPACT] Regression found while doing the verification testing of (LP: #1913284) As described by my colleague Ponnuvel: " The problem is that IndependentPlugin is not working in Focal's sosreport. The bcache plugin uses IndependentPlugin (as in, it's not tied to any specific Distro). IndependentPlugin was broken at some point since Bionic and has been fixed upstream. (It's working on Bionic in 3.X series). sosreport | 3.9.1-1ubuntu0.18.04.3 | bionic-updates sosreport | 4.0-1~ubuntu0.20.04.4 | focal-proposed sosreport | 4.0-1ubuntu2.2 | groovy-proposed sosreport | 4.0-1ubuntu9 | hirsute However, the sos report package on Focal, Groovy, and Hirsute all have the broken code. " It currently impacts plugins relying on "IndependentPlugin" to run such as the bcache plugin. "IndependentPlugin" is a class for plugins that can run on any platform. [TEST PLAN] + The patch includes a fix for the IndependentPlugin. Currently, bcache plugin uses the IndependentPlugin. So sosreport collection has to be tested on a machine with bcache deployment. The cherry-picked commit includes a number of other changes, so --all-logs and -a options would need to be used to ensure there's no other breakages. - <TO_BE_FILLED> [WHERE PROBLEM COULD OCCUR] - <TO_BE_FILLED> + The IndependentPlugin may still not work - in that case, it'd only + affect bcache plugin. Worse, the changes could affect other Plugin types + and cause more regressions - affecting data collection for multiple + plugins. + [OTHER INFORMATION] Upstream bug: https://github.com/sosreport/sos/pull/2018 Upstream commit: https://github.com/sosreport/sos/commit/a36e1b83040f3f2c63912d4601f4b33821cd4afb ** Attachment added: "hirsute-debdiff.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sosreport/+bug/1917651/+attachment/5473096/+files/hirsute-debdiff.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1917651 Title: IndependentPlugin is not working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sosreport/+bug/1917651/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
