[Bug 1928200] Re: Prompt error message "Failed to unmount /oldroot" when shutdown or reboot

[Brian Murray]

Hello Bin, or anyone else affected,

Accepted systemd into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/245.4-4ubuntu3.8 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-
focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-focal. 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.

** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu Focal)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Committed

** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-focal

Bug description:
  [impact]

  root fs is not cleanly unmounted on shutdown

  [test case]

  create a file in /etc/binfmt.d/TestFormat.conf with the following
  content:

  :TestFormat:M::XX::/bin/true:F

  reboot the system, and then shutdown or reboot again, and watch the
  serial console for the error message:

  sd-umount[1334]: Failed to unmount /oldroot: Device or resource busy

  [regression potential]

  any regression would likely cause problems on shutdown and/or reboot,
  or may cause problems with unmounted root fs on shutdown/reboot

  [scope]

  this is needed only for f

  this is fixed upstream with PR 15566 which is included in v246, so
  this is fixed already in g and later

  this isn't reproducable on b

  [original description]

  On ubuntu 20.04, with latest kernel and systemd, it will show error on
  ThinkPad X1.

  sd-umount[1334]: Failed to unmount /oldroot: Device or resource busy

  systemd 245.4-4ubuntu3.6
  kernel: 5.8.0-53
