There's currently a deadlock between PID 1 and dbus-daemon: in some cases dbus-daemon will do NSS lookups (which are blocking) at the same time PID 1 synchronously blocks on some call to dbus-daemon. Let's break that by setting SYSTEMD_NSS_DYNAMIC_BYPASS=1 env var for dbus-daemon, which will disable synchronously blocking varlink calls from nss-systemd to PID 1. In the long run we should fix this differently: remove all synchronous calls to dbus-daemon from PID 1. This is not trivial however: so far we had the rule that synchronous calls from PID 1 to the dbus broker are OK as long as they only go to interfaces implemented by the broke itself rather than services reachable through it. Given that the relationship between PID 1 and dbus is kinda special anyway, this was considered acceptable for the sake of simplicity, since we quite often need metadata about bus peers from the broker, and the asynchronous logic would substantially complicate even the simplest method handlers. This mostly reworks the existing code that sets SYSTEMD_NSS_BYPASS_BUS= (which is a similar hack to deal with deadlocks between nss-systemd and dbus-daemon itself) to set SYSTEMD_NSS_DYNAMIC_BYPASS=1 instead. No code was checking SYSTEMD_NSS_BYPASS_BUS= anymore anyway, and it used to solve a similar problem, hence it's an obvious piece of code to rework like this. Issue originally tracked down by Lukas Märdian. This patch is inspired and closely based on his patch: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/22038 Fixes: #15316 Co-authored-by: Lukas Märdian <slyon@ubuntu.com> |
