Bug#709217: initscripts: checkfs.sh abend on BTRFS filesystem

Dear Maintainer,

I get a message at system startup as "fsck" is incorrect for btrfs file-systems
:

update-rc.d: Removal of start and stop actions

Hi,

With the release of wheezy, all systems should be using dependency-
based booting.  This makes the provision of static sequence ordering
pointless, but the update-rc.d interface still allows sequence
numbers to be passed for its start, stop and defaults actions.  They
just get ignored when using insserv, but they still need providing
unless you are using defaults with no options (which is recommended).

I'm planning on merging these two patches:
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=users/rleigh/sysvinit.git;a=commitdiff;h=3ed24526866d93e28ae3a501b131d5efe002f11a
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=users/rleigh/sysvinit.git;a=commitdiff;h=48daa9d5c8e28f8669e5b85cd369605c8254232c

These do the following:
- remove all support for non-dependency-based boot; in practice, this
  code hasn't been used for a couple of stable releases, since we always
  used the insserv code.
- remove support for start and stop; the options still exist, but they
  just invoke the "defaults" action.  This was already the case with
  insserv, but it's now explicit.
- the update-rc.d(8) manpage is updated to remove all the legacy
  documentation and examples.  This should make it clear what's
  currently supported, and it greatly simplifies the interface.

None of this should affect anyone since in practice there will be no
noticable difference other than the addition of a warning if the start
or stop actions are used.  I'm just bringing it up in case this will
cause anyone problems--in which case shout now before it's changed!

Following this change, I'd like to have debhelper and lintian warn

Bug#708934: how to avoid all mounts for LXC systems?

Package: initscripts
Version: 2.88dsf-41
Severity: wishlist

For LXC systems all mounts are supposed to happen _before_
init is run. Every mount tried by one of the run level scripts
creates a "permission denied" error message.

Below is a sample boot session showing startup and shutdown
of a LXC system (CONCURRENCY=none).

The problem is that I cannot disable the "unwanted" scripts
performing the mount, because I would loose other initialization
steps as well.

It would be very nice if the run level scripts doing mount/\
umount could be streamlined to support LXC systems.

Many thanx
Harri

Stable update for sysvinit

Hi,

It was pointed out that #694252 was preventing some upgrades from lenny
due to preventing the enabling of dependency-based boot.  The following
one line change corrects this:

Bug#686531: not only NFS

Control: retitle -1 checkroot-bootclean.sh fails on read-only root
Control: found -1 2.88dsf-41

The same happens when root is on local storage but still mounted
read-only.  And this happens with wheezy version too.

In /lib/init/bootclean.sh, clean_tmp, there's a check whenever
/tmp is world-writable - maybe it's a good idea to chmod it in
the real root (since it's read-only anyway!), and so whole thing
will just work.  Or maybe creatig /tmp/.tmpfs will do the trick.
For now I think I'll go for chmod 0755 /tmp.

After upgrading to wheezy I left with /lib/init/rw directory, and
that one too causes several ugly error messages and script failures
during bootup (this can be fixed simple by deleting the dir).

Thanks,

/mjt

There is already support for this in the core
/usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion script.  And it works for me.

That's a good point; the current bash_completion only handles sysvinit
scripts.  Maybe it should be extended?  (But I'm not sure if that's on topic
for this bug report, or if a separate one should be filed.)

Bug#678260: startpar has a timeout value that lets boot messages get mixed

Package: sysvinit-utils
Version: 2.88dsf-41
Followup-For: Bug #678260
Tags: patch

Hi,

I also see mixed boot messages with startpar, especially on slow
embedded computers or on virtual machines. It seems that startpar
tries to print the messages of the last active process immediately. On
slow system, there is sometimes only one active process, which
startpar incorrectly considers as the last process overall. The
attached patch adds a better condition for this.

The patch solves the issue on my computer. Startpar is a fairly complex
program, hopefully the patch doesn't break other parts of it.

Cheers,
Em

Bug#707007: wishlist: bash_completion for /bin/service

Package: sysvinit-utils
Version: 2.88dsf-41
Severity: wishlist

Hello

It would be nice if "service <tab><tab><tab>" would show all acceptable names 
so that one doesn't have to remember if it was e.g. "mysql" or "mysql-server".
I guess it's pretty easily done with bash_completion but I have no clue how
such scripts are made.

bye,

Bug#706676: sysvinit: /sbin/init doesn't support LXC gracefull shutdown via lxc-shutdown

Package: sysvinit
Version: 2.88dsf-41
Severity: important

It seems that init doesn't handle properly SIGPWR inside LXC container,
even after applying a workarround found at :
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=695568#15

'lxc-shutdown -n <container>' halts gracefully a container but
container's /sbin/init process is left running after, so container
isn't stopped.

You have to do 'lxc-stop -n <container>' or a
'lxc-attach -n <container> -- /bin/kill -9 <init_pid>' to kill remaining
/sbin/init and stop container.

Regards.
