Title:
libsystemd-login sd_login_monitor_new not working
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in systemd source package in Utopic:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
[Impact]
The systemd login monitoring library (API: sd_login_monitor_new(3)) is not
functional in Utopic. This library is a dependency in NetworkManager, for
tracking user sessions. As a result, my laptop does not reconnect to
the network after a suspend/resume cycle.
There was a patch to fix this in the older, Trusty Tahr version of systemd
(http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/trusty/systemd/trusty/view/head:/debian/patches/login-monitor-no-machine.patch).
The patch isn't in the utopic systemd (208-8ubuntu8).
This was discovered in a Gnome Fallback session, but I think this KDE issue
may be the same thing: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=340568
Note: This behavior is only seen when "All users may connect to this
network" is un-selected in NetworkManager.
NOTE: in order to get a fully working network, I also had to make a
change to the upstart script, see:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1400205
[Test Case]
A short C program to demonstrate sd_login_monitor_new is attached to the
bug, to demonstrate whether sd_login_monitor_new() is working.
To do an end-to-end test, you can stop NetworkManager, re-run it with
"NetworkManager --no-daemon", and look for the "Error getting login
monitor:" error message.
[Regression Potential]
Fixing this simply means applying a patch which shipped along with
Trusty Tahr's systemd. Since it was widely used already, adding it to
Utopic does not appear overly risky.
