    future resize operations. (LP: #1611074)
  * New upstream snapshot.
    - Add activate_datasource, for datasource specific code paths.

  * New upstream snapshot.
    - systemd/cloud-init-local.service:
      + replace 'Wants' and 'After' on local-fs.target with more granular
        After=systemd-remount-fs.service and RequiresMountsFor=/var/lib
        and Before=sysinit.target.
        This is done run sufficiently early enough to update /etc/fstab.

      + drop Requires=networking.service to work where networking.service is
        not needed.

    - Decode unicode types in decode_binary [Robert Schweikert]
    - Allow ephemeral drive to be unpartitioned [Paul Meyer]
    - subp: add 'update_env' argument which allows for more easily adding
      environment variables to a subprocess call.
    - Adjust mounts and disk configuration for systemd. (LP: #1611074)
    - DataSources:
      + Ec2: protect against non-dictionary in block-device-mapping.
      + AliYun: Add new datasource for Ali-Cloud ECS, that is
        available but not enabled by default [kaihuan.pkh]
      + DigitalOcean: use meta-data for network configuration and
        enable data source by default. [Ben Howard]

Bug description:
  === Begin SRU Template ===
  [Impact]
  There is a race condition that occurs when cloud-init tries to partition a
  block device (/dev/sdb) and then put a filesystem on a partition on it.  It is
  possible that cloud-init tries to run mkfs on /dev/sdb1 after partitioning the
  device /dev/sdb but before the partition device node '/dev/sdb1' exists.

  When this race condition occurs, cloud-init will fail to make the "ephemeral"
  device available to the user on Azure.

  [Test Case]
  A reliable reproduce test case is hard to come by here.  The failure case
  is believed to be well understood.

  [Regression Potential]
  There should be very little chance for regression, as essentially all the change
  does is change:

  1.   sgdisk -n 1:0:0 /dev/sdb
  2.   mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1

  to

  1.   sgdisk -n 1:0:0 /dev/sdb
  1a   udevadm settle
  1b   blockdev --rereadpt
  1c   udevadm settle
  2.   mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1

  The steps '1b' and '1c' above are not necessary, but were present already in
  the method.  They serve here as additional wait.

  [Other Info]
  The change that fixes this is viewable at [1].  For context, viewin all of
  cc_disk_setup.py [2].  Basically we just add a call to read_parttbl [3] to
  exec_mkpart_gpt after invoking a sgdisk command that partitions a disk.
  read_partbl basically does a udevadm settle which fixes the race condition that
  was seen.

  === End SRU Template ===

  The symptom is similar to bug 1611074 but the cause is different. In
  this case it seems there is an error accessing /dev/sdb1 when lsblk is
  run, possibly because sgdisk isn't done creating the partition. The
  specific error message is "/dev/sdb1: not a block device." A simple
  wait and retry here may resolve the issue.
