[Bug 1398458] Re: kernel fails to load iwlwifi firmware - disable CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER

 

This bug was fixed in the package systemd - 217-3ubuntu1

---------------
systemd (217-3ubuntu1) vivid; urgency=medium

  * Merge with Debian unstable. Remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - Create disk/by-partlabel links for mmcblk partitions.
    - Hack to support system-image read-only /etc, and modify files in
      /etc/writable/ instead.
    - debian/rules: Drop doc dir symlinking. It creates havoc with dpkg
      upgrades, and we already have the automatic per-file symlinking.
    - debian/rules: Add an epoch to libgudev.
    - Don't install 80-networking.rules and the Debian *.agent scripts, we
      never supported them in Ubuntu. Instead, extend systemd's "net" device
      udev rule to trigger ifup@.service on network devices.
    - Keep our much simpler udev maintainer scripts (all platforms must
      support udev, no debconf).
    - Add udev Apport package hook.
    - debian/extra/initramfs.top: Drop $ROOTDELAY, we do that in a more
      sensible way with wait-for-root. Will get applicable to Debian once
      Debian gets wait-for-root in initramfs-tools.
    - debian/extra/initramfs.bottom: If LVM is installed, settle udev,
      otherwise we get missing LV symlinks. Workaround for LP #1185394.
    - Add 40-hyperv-hotadd.rules: Workaround for LP #1233466.
    - Mark graphics devices as PRIMARY_DEVICE_FOR_DISPLAY so that we can wait
      for those in plymouth.
    - Add debian/udev.lvm2.init: Dummy SysV init script to satisfy insserv
      dependencies to "lvm2" which is handled with udev rules in Ubuntu.
    - Lower Breaks: to lvm2 again. Our lvm2 package has always used udev for
      device setup, and thus is be compatible with systemd, too.
    - Lower Breaks: to plymouth version which has the udev inotify fix in
      Ubuntu.
    - Add HP ProLiant Server Cartridge power control support.
    - Provide shutdown fallback for upstart. (LP: #1370329)
    - debian/ifup@.service: Additionally run for "auto" class. We don't really
      support "allow-hotplug" in Ubuntu at the moment, so we need to deal with
      "auto" devices appearing after "/etc/init.d/networking start" already
      ran.  (LP: #1374521)
    - Add Get-RTC-is-in-local-time-setting-from-etc-default-rc.patch: In
      Ubuntu we currently keep the setting whether the RTC is in local or UTC
      time in /etc/default/rcS "UTC=yes|no", instead of /etc/adjtime.
      (LP: #1377258)
    - Add systemd Apport hook for adding systemd-delta and information about
      failed units.
    - Put session scopes into all cgroup controllers. This makes unprivileged
      user LXC containers work under systemd. (LP: #1346734)
    - Do not realize and migrate cgroups multiple times, in particular
      "-.slice". This fixes PIDs in non-systemd cgroup controllers to be
      randomly migrated back to /.
    - Build-depend on libapparmor-dev to enable AppArmor support
      (LP: #1396270)

    Upgrade fixes, keep until 16.04 LTS release:
    - systemd Conflicts/Replaces/Provides systemd-services.
    - Remove obsolete systemd-logind upstart job.
    - Clean up obsolete /etc/udev/rules.d/README on upgrades. (LP: #1381655)

systemd (217-4) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium

  * Reinstate a debian/extra/rules/50-firmware.rules which immediately tells
    the kernel that userspace firmware loading failed. Otherwise it tries for a
    minute to call the userspace helper (if CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER is
    enabled) in vain, which causes long delays with devices which have a range
    of possible firmware versions. (LP: #1398458)

systemd (217-3) experimental; urgency=medium

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * systemd.bug-script: Really capture stderr of systemd-delta.
    (Closes: #771498)
  * boot-and-services autopkgtest: Give test apparmor job some time to
    actually finish.

  [ Didier Roche ]
  * updated debian/patches/insserv.conf-generator.patch:
    - if /etc/X11/default-display-manager doesn't match a systemd unit
      (or doesn't exist), be less agressive about what to mask: we let
      all sysvinit-only display-manager units enabled to fallback to previous
      behavior and let them starting. (Closes: #771739)

Bug description:
  Using current vivid, when using udev 217 wlan0 is missing, it's there
  and working fine when downgrading to 215
