All autopkgtests for the newly accepted haproxy (1.8.8-1ubuntu0.8) for bionic have finished running. The following regressions have been reported in tests triggered by the package:
haproxy/1.8.8-1ubuntu0.8 (armhf) Please visit the excuses page listed below and investigate the failures, proceeding afterwards as per the StableReleaseUpdates policy regarding autopkgtest regressions [1]. https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed- migration/bionic/update_excuses.html#haproxy [1] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Autopkgtest_Regressions Thank you! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu High Availability Team, which is subscribed to haproxy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848902 Title: haproxy in bionic can get stuck Status in haproxy package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in haproxy source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] * The master process will exit with the status of the last worker. When the worker is killed with SIGTERM, it is expected to get 143 as an exit status. Therefore, we consider this exit status as normal from a systemd point of view. If it happens when not stopping, the systemd unit is configured to always restart, so it has no adverse effect. * Backport upstream fix - adding another accepted RC to the systemd service [Test Case] * You want to install haproxy and have it running. Then sigterm it a lot. With the fix it would restart the service all the time, well except restart limit. But in the bad case it will just stay down and didn't even try to restart it. $ apt install haproxy $ for x in {1..100}; do pkill -TERM -x haproxy ; sleep 0.1 ; done $ systemctl status haproxy The above is a hacky way to trigger some A/B behavior on the fix. It isn't perfect as systemd restart counters will kick in and you essentially check a secondary symptom. I'd recommend to in addition run the following: $ apt install haproxy $ for x in {1..1000}; do pkill -TERM -x haproxy ; sleep 0.001 systemctl reset-failed haproxy.service; done $ systemctl status haproxy You can do so with even smaller sleeps, that should keep the service up and running (this isn't changing with the fix, but should work with the new code). [Regression Potential] * This eventually is a conffile modification, so if there are other modifications done by the user they will get a prompt. But that isn't a regression. I checked the code and I can't think of another RC=143 that would due to that "no more" detected as error. I really think other than the update itself triggering a restart (as usual for services) there is no further regression potential to this. [Other Info] * Fix already active in IS hosted cloud without issues since a while * Also reports (comment #5) show that others use this in production as well --- On a Bionic/Stein cloud, after a network partition, we saw several units (glance, swift-proxy and cinder) fail to start haproxy, like so: root@juju-df624b-6-lxd-4:~# systemctl status haproxy.service ● haproxy.service - HAProxy Load Balancer Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/haproxy.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Sun 2019-10-20 00:23:18 UTC; 1h 35min ago Docs: man:haproxy(1) file:/usr/share/doc/haproxy/configuration.txt.gz Process: 2002655 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/haproxy -Ws -f $CONFIG -p $PIDFILE $EXTRAOPTS (code=exited, status=143) Process: 2002649 ExecStartPre=/usr/sbin/haproxy -f $CONFIG -c -q $EXTRAOPTS (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 2002655 (code=exited, status=143) Oct 20 00:16:52 juju-df624b-6-lxd-4 systemd[1]: Starting HAProxy Load Balancer...

Unfortunately Bionic is on 1.8.8-1ubuntu0.4 and doesn't have this patch. Please consider pulling this patch into an SRU for Bionic.
