[Bug 1317077] Re: systemd-modules-load.service fails: /etc/modules contains nonexisting module "rtc"

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package kmod - 16-2ubuntu4

---------------
kmod (16-2ubuntu4) utopic; urgency=medium

  * On upgrade to this version, remove rtc module from /etc/modules. rtc
    is obsolete and doesn't exist anymore.  This is a clean up after,
    older versions of installers that unconditionally added it to modules.

Bug description:
  Since day one, when I have switched on systemd as PID 1 , the service
  [systemd-modules-load.service] always exited with a FAILURE status=1.

  :~$ systemctl list-units --failed
  UNIT                                                 LOAD     ACTIVE    SUB       DESCRIPTION
  systemd-modules-load.service   loaded   failed       failed     Load Kernel Modules

  :~# systemctl status systemd-modules-load.service
  systemd-modules-load.service - Load Kernel Modules
     Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/systemd-modules-load.service; static)
     Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Τετ 2014-05-07 14:39:26 EEST; 38min ago
       Docs: man:systemd-modules-load.service(8)
             man:modules-load.d(5)
    Process: 337 ExecStart=/lib/systemd/systemd-modules-load (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)

  I have ran the service directly via:

  :~# /lib/systemd/systemd-modules-load

  and the errors was

  Module 'fuse' is builtin
  Failed to find module 'rtc'
  could not find module by name='off'
  Failed to insert 'off': Function not implemented
  could not find module by name='off'
  Failed to insert 'off': Function not implemented

  I have searched/found and removed the affected modules from

  /etc/modules (which is a symlink on /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf)

  and

  /lib/modules-load.d/fuse.conf (this I have renamed to fuse.conf.bad)

  Also I saw that [fuse.service] is masked, but I guess this is on
  purpose due to active developing.

  Now [systemd-modules-load.service] is exiting with a SUCCESS status=0.

  Certainly I didn't add these modules manually at the related
  directories and I am thinking if this is a bug on how the affected
  modules should be loaded and how the related configuration files
  should be written.
