[Bug 1073568] Re: Reiserfs not terminating properly, results in 'trans replayed' at next boot.

[Steve Langasek]

If the 'killing all remaining processes' step has failed, then you have
some processes on your system, not managed by upstart, that are either
deadlocked or are respawning and preventing themselves from being
killed.  In either case, upstart does the best it can to shut down
anyway, but when processes are misbehaving and trying to avoid shutting
down, this sometimes means an unclean filesystem.

Title:
  Reiserfs not terminating properly, results in 'trans replayed' at next
  boot.

Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

  An up to date systemd as of 2012. 10. 31.

  Upon shutdown I see that 'waiting for all processes to terminate [fails]', upon booting I can see that lots of trans replayed items delay booting which comes from abnormal reiserfs shutdown. This is a fresh ubuntu install, with lvm on luks configuration.
  /var is on reiserfs, all the others are on ex4.
  Apart from this slow boot everything is OK, however this is not too good in the long run.

  Are there any logs I can help you with? (I just don't know where they
  are)
