** Description changed: Binary package hint: autofs5 I have an automount setup containing a large number of NIS-provided maps, all derived from an NIS-provided master map (yp:auto.master). When I stop automount using "stop autofs", I noticed that some mounts have been unmounted while a non-deterministic number of mounts have been orphaned and need to be cleaned up using "umount": adar@adar-lx:~$ sudo start autofs && sudo stop autofs && grep autofs /proc/mounts autofs start/running, process 13152 autofs stop/waiting auto.home /exit14 autofs rw,relatime,fd=19,pgrp=13152,timeout=60,minproto=5,maxproto=5,indirect 0 0 /etc/auto.build /build autofs rw,relatime,fd=6,pgrp=13152,timeout=300,minproto=5,maxproto=5,indirect 0 0 auto.exit15 /exit15 autofs rw,relatime,fd=31,pgrp=13152,timeout=60,minproto=5,maxproto=5,indirect 0 0 auto.scripts /scripts autofs rw,relatime,fd=73,pgrp=13152,timeout=60,minproto=5,maxproto=5,indirect 0 0 adar@adar-lx:~$ sudo start autofs && sudo stop autofs && grep autofs /proc/mounts autofs start/running, process 13198 autofs stop/waiting /etc/auto.build /build autofs rw,relatime,fd=6,pgrp=13198,timeout=300,minproto=5,maxproto=5,indirect 0 0 auto.scripts /scripts autofs rw,relatime,fd=73,pgrp=13198,timeout=60,minproto=5,maxproto=5,indirect 0 0 auto.mts-tlv /mts-tlv autofs rw,relatime,fd=67,pgrp=13198,timeout=60,minproto=5,maxproto=5,indirect 0 0 auto.mts-sof /mts-sof autofs rw,relatime,fd=79,pgrp=13198,timeout=60,minproto=5,maxproto=5,indirect 0 0 auto.mts-cm /mts-cm autofs rw,relatime,fd=85,pgrp=13198,timeout=60,minproto=5,maxproto=5,indirect 0 0 adar@adar-lx:~$ sudo start autofs && sudo stop autofs && grep autofs /proc/mounts autofs start/running, process 13244 autofs stop/waiting auto.mts-sof /mts-sof autofs rw,relatime,fd=79,pgrp=13244,timeout=60,minproto=5,maxproto=5,indirect 0 0 auto.buildmap /bldmnt autofs rw,relatime,fd=49,pgrp=13244,timeout=60,minproto=5,maxproto=5,indirect 0 0 auto.exit26home /exit26 autofs rw,relatime,fd=55,pgrp=13244,timeout=60,minproto=5,maxproto=5,indirect 0 0 I suspect this is due to the transition to upstart but I'm not 100% sure. + + ## SRU JUSTIFICATION ## + IMPACT: Running reload autofs on a release with this issue creates automount maps and can cause the automounter to hang. This will prevent logins via ssh for users (due to NFS mounted home directories). + + FIX: Patch cherry picked from upstream, + https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/autofs5/+bug/578536/comments/6 + + PATCH: see diff in unapproved queue. + + REPRODUCE: See this bug description + + DISCUSSION: Issue was known and resolved upstream, and has been carried + in later releases of Ubuntu. The patch coming untouched from upstream + indicates that the regression potential is low.
