[15:51] <xnox> cyphermox, hi
[15:51] <xnox> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+bug/1551952
[15:52] <xnox> this multipath tools merge from rharper fixes a critical bug for s390x =/
[15:52] <xnox> have you per chance managed to take a look at it?
[15:52] <xnox> and/or does it conflict with any other work that you have been doing for multipath tools?
[15:53] <cyphermox> xnox: feel free, I haven't got to it yet (but the FFE is also not approved yet)
[15:54] <xnox> right.
[15:54] <cyphermox> should be fine to land, worst case I'll do upload on top, but in any case I'm all for that update, it probably fixes a bunch of crasp
[15:54] <cyphermox> *crap
[15:55] <cyphermox> trying to debug upgrades still
[15:55] <cyphermox> I've taken a roundabout way to do the upgrade manually and things don't crash so far, so I'm not sure what the problem is anymore
[15:56]  * cyphermox goes back to cheering compiz on to finally crash
[16:01] <xnox> =/
[16:01] <xnox> ack
[18:15] <xnox> cyphermox, is it normal for something to write out /etc/network/interfaces.d/<ifname> during a d-i install?
[18:16] <xnox> and then cause problems, e.g. static ip in /etc/network/interfaces, yet dhcp snippet in interface.d hogging all shutdowns.
[18:16] <cyphermox> I think so, yeah
[18:16] <cyphermox> did you set up the system with static or dhcp?
[18:16] <xnox> cyphermox, static.
[18:17] <cyphermox> and what's in /etc/network/interfaces.d/<ifname> exactly?
[18:17] <xnox> cyphermox, it certainly did not used to do that at all.
[18:17] <xnox> one sec.
[18:17] <cyphermox> slaac for ipv6?
[18:17] <xnox> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1556241
[18:18] <xnox> allow-hotplug encf5f0
[18:18] <xnox> iface encf5f0 inet dhcp
[18:18] <xnox> ..
[18:18] <xnox> file name is "encf5f0"
[18:18] <xnox> hm.... do any udev rules do that, i wonder.
[18:19] <cyphermox> they certainly should not
[18:20] <xnox> allow-hotplug -> i wonder who adds that.
[18:22] <xnox> but netcfg never writes anything into interfaces.d
[18:22] <cyphermox> right
[18:23] <xnox> busybox ip a does it?
[18:23] <xnox> or e.g. dhcp client?
[18:23] <xnox> if one tries to do dhcp in the shell, whilst installing the system, and then that gets copied?
[18:26] <cyphermox> neither should go writing things in /etc/network
[18:29] <cyphermox> lemme run a new install, should be easy to find out what's touching this
[18:30] <xnox> Mar 15 04:49:26 net/hw-detect.hotplug: Detected hotpluggable network interface encc000
[18:30] <xnox> Mar 15 04:49:26 net/hw-detect.hotplug: Detected hotpluggable network interface encc000.2586
[18:30] <xnox> Mar 15 04:49:26 net/hw-detect.hotplug: Detected hotpluggable network interface lo
[18:30] <xnox> hmmmm.
[18:31] <cyphermox> sure but all that does is write to /etc/network/devhotplug, not /etc/network/interfaces.d
[18:34] <superm1> cyphermox: i added ubiquity r6393 to handle keeping fwupdate signed efi in target, not sure if you had anything else you wanted to do before next ubiquity upload
[18:35] <cyphermox> nothing I can think of right now
[18:36] <xnox> cyphermox, this is all on s390x by the way, with interfaces which one must manually enable.
[18:36] <xnox> thus they do appear as if they got hotplugged half way through the installation.
[18:37] <cyphermox> well, yeah, I believe you that's what seems to happen on that system. I'm grepping through all my workspace to try and figure out what might do this
[18:37] <cyphermox> I have no idea
[18:37] <cyphermox> or you can run an install again and somewhere near the end, before reboot, get to a console and grep through /
[18:38] <cyphermox> it could just as easily be some s390x specific magic for the interfaces
[18:38] <xnox> horum, let's do that.
[18:38] <cyphermox> at least it does not look to be hw-detect or netcfg, but I may have not grepped for the right thing
[18:39] <cyphermox> also, are you installing 16.04 or 14.04?
[18:39] <cyphermox> netcfg could be different between the two
[18:41] <xnox> 16.04 only
[18:41] <xnox> s390x is only on 16.04
[22:16] <infinity> xnox: Do you have cloud-init in that install?  I think it writes interface snippets.
[22:42] <xnox> infinity, oh.
