Title:
systemd-fsckd functionality should be in plymouth directly
Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
When systemd-fsckd was removed from upstream systemd, a small
helper/compatibility feature was left behind. When systemd-fsck is
running, it will connect to /run/systemd/fsck.progress, if it exists,
and point fsck to that fd for progress updates. The systemd-fsckd patch
in Ubuntu currently utilizes that, and then sends updates to plymouth.
This means that we currently have a situation like this:
systemd-fsck@dev1.service -
... |-> systemd-fsckd.service -> plymouthd
systemd-fsck@devN.service -
In other words, systemd-fsckd.service is a middleware. But, plymouthd
could simply listen on /run/systemd/fsck.progress itself.
There is already very similar logic for this in Ubuntu's plymouth via
debian/patches/ubuntu-spinner-fsck.patch. Instead of carrying the
large systemd-fsckd patch in systemd, we should consolidate the
functionality into the existing plymouth patches.
