[Łukasz Zemczak]

Hello Dan, or anyone else affected,

Accepted systemd into eoan-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/242-7ubuntu3.8
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
eoan to verification-done-eoan. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-eoan. In either case, without details of your testing we will not
be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Title:
  systemd autopkgtest 'logind' fails when running with linux-kvm

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in systemd source package in Xenial:
  In Progress
Status in systemd source package in Bionic:
  In Progress
Status in systemd source package in Eoan:
  Fix Committed
Status in systemd source package in Focal:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [impact]

  the logind autopkgtest tries to access /sys/power/state, but because
  linux-kvm has CONFIG_PM unset, there is no /sys/power/state file

  [test case]

  check autopkgtest, e.g.:
  https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-eoan/eoan/amd64/s/systemd/20200210_144351_da247@/log.gz

  autopkgtest [13:48:53]: test logind: -----------------------]
  autopkgtest [13:48:53]: test logind:  - - - - - - - - - - results - - - - - - - - - -
  logind               FAIL stderr: grep: /sys/power/state: No such file or directory
  autopkgtest [13:48:53]: test logind:  - - - - - - - - - - stderr - - - - - - - - - -
  grep: /sys/power/state: No such file or directory

  [regression potential]

  regressions would likely involve incorrectly skipped logind test.

  [scope]

  this fails for all releases; Xenial, Bionic, Eoan, and Focal.

  [other info]

  it's unclear if linux-kvm should have CONFIG_PM (and other config)
  enabled or not.

  However, it's not the intention of systemd's autopkgtests to look for
  missing config in the kernel; the test already skips if 'mem' isn't in
  /sys/power/state, so it should also skip if /sys/power/state isn't
  present at all.
