I'm not sure which one it was but I am on my phone at the moment so I'm not well equipped to figure it out :P it's ok I guess I'll just try both! | 04:05:06 |

47de6ecabb0609bc8b4212842fb01533b3616874 systemd: 252.3 -> 252.4
ed9e8cd687b08a4e8f3d673f25c12e345afd65cb systemd: 252.1 -> 252.3
and yes, that 252.4 update was in fact the bad one! | 04:50:31 |
 @gdamjan:spodeli.org | shouldn't that be 'auto' ? | 10:04:30 |
 @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | gdamjan: hm? | 10:56:47 |
| @gdamjan:spodeli.org | actually, I'm confused what 'device' is there? | 11:20:13 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | gdamjan: As I understand it, there's a bunch of different ${tpm2-tss}/lib/libtss2-tcti-*.so drivers for various TPMs. The issue was that systemd got a patch that made it so it doesn't check the correct locations to find these on NixOS. So if you had tpm2-device=auto, it would find your TPM device in /dev and determine which driver to load, but fail to properly find that driver | 11:29:43 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | one of them just happens to have a weird name device | 11:30:05 |
| @gdamjan:spodeli.org | 👍️ | 11:31:52 |
 @lily:lily.flowers | Does anyone have any thoughts on whether changing the ACTION="add" to ACTION="add|change" is a good idea here? https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/f2592ef0e113aef0e8e7141cab2b17521760b064/rules.d/90-vconsole.rules.in#L12
It fixes my issue with the vconsole settings racing in initrd and sometimes causing the vconsole settings to get reverted when vtcon initializes (and udev rule fires) before drm/modesetting/i915/something else does (idk where exactly it's getting reset but it only happens after the udev rule like 1 in 10 boots) | 17:54:18 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | Lily Foster: I just realized we don't actually add systemd-vconsole-setup.service to initrd... Do you add that in your config yourself? | 18:14:47 |
| @lily:lily.flowers | I do not. It didn't seem to help anything when I tried to add it so I removed it again | 18:15:19 |
| @lily:lily.flowers | The systemd-vconsole-setup seems to get run only from the udev rule, not from the .service | 18:15:40 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | Ah I see | 18:15:47 |
| @lily:lily.flowers | * The systemd-vconsole-setup binary seems to get run only from the udev rule, not from the .service | 18:15:48 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | Lily Foster: Weird, systemctl list-dependencies --reverse systemd-vconsole-setup.service only lists plymout-start.service. Not even any transitive reverse deps | 18:18:24 |
| @lily:lily.flowers | Oh yeah I don't use plymouth, so that may be why adding it did nothing for me | 18:18:54 |
| @lily:lily.flowers | (And also why vconsole settings matter a little more for my ability to type luks password) | 18:19:19 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | I guess plymouth-start isn't wanted by anything in stage 2 | 18:19:20 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | but yea, maybe add the unit to the upstream units list and make it wanted by initrd.target or something? | 18:19:45 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | not that it would necessarily matter; the udev stuff should probably do the trick | 18:20:06 |
| @lily:lily.flowers | In reply to @elvishjerricco:matrix.org
but yea, maybe add the unit to the upstream units list and make it wanted by initrd.target or something? I'll try that and see if it helps then. I'm not sure if it'll just continue racing like that or not (does modesetting reset vtcon settings or something?) | 18:21:11 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | I know absolutely nothing about the vconsole stuff | 18:21:51 |
| @lily:lily.flowers | Hey same | 18:22:34 |
| @lily:lily.flowers | Which is why debugging this for me has mostly been trying random seemingly-related changed | 18:22:53 |

So it does look like dracut actually manually adds Wants for the service to stuff: https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut/blob/3c16c76fb51683cd70c3643b122685b7cdb4178c/modules.d/00systemd/module-setup.sh#L249-L256 | 23:29:27 |
| @lily:lily.flowers | Maybe we need to do that too? | 23:29:37 |
| @lily:lily.flowers | (I have made the change you suggested locally and I've just been waiting to see in the next week if it happens again during boot or if your suggestion fixed it) | 23:30:43 |
