Status in coreutils package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in coreutils source package in Focal: Incomplete Status in zfs-linux source package in Focal: Fix Committed Status in coreutils source package in Groovy: Incomplete Status in zfs-linux source package in Groovy: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] * Users can’t revert to previous snapshots when enabling the hw enablement stack kernel on focal or using any more recent version. * The option is available on grub and will let you with a broken system, partially cloned. [Test Case] * Boot on a system, using ZFS and ZSys. * In grub, select "History" entry * Select one of the "Revert" option: the system should boot after being reverted with an older version. [Where problems could occur] * The code is in the initramfs, where the generated id suffix for all our ZFS datasets was empty due to new coreutils/kernels. * We replace dd with another way (more robust and simple) for generating this ID. --------------------- @coreutils maintainers, any idea why dd is being flagged as having an executable stack? -------------------- When I try to revert to a previous state from the grub menu, the boot fails. The system drops me to a repair modus. zfs-mount-generator fails with the message: couldn't ensure boot: Mounted clone bootFS dataset created by initramfs doesn't have a valid _suffix (at least .*_<onechar>): \"rpool/ROOT/ubuntu_\"". After a reboot I have an extra clone called "rpool/ROOT/ubuntu_", indeed without a suffix. After a little investigation I found the problem in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/zfs at the end in function uid() { dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/stdout bs=1 count=100 2>/dev/null | tr -dc 'a-z0-9' | cut -c-6 }, the dd command fails during boot with the message "process 'dd' started with executable stack. After this an empty uid is returned which explains the dataset without a proper suffix. Replacing the function with: uid() { grep -a -m10 -E "\*" /dev/urandom 2>/dev/null | tr -dc 'a-z0-9' | cut -c-6 } fixes the problem.
