This appears to break boot on my systems. IDK how exactly, looks like systemd gets stuck waiting for nondescript services to start in initramfs. I have lots of debug enabled and didn't spot anything of note in kernel logs. I'll try to poke at this more, but LMK if you have any ideas. The commit looks "obviously correct" :S

We (LKFT) are still seeing this problem only on arm architecture on next-20210416 tag onwards. our bisect script points to this commit. Steps to reproduce: - build linux next latest next-20210423 tag with below config - kernel-config: https://builds.tuxbuild.com/1reqrnNLnHEX9uEZFngRfaoJa9E/config - boot qemu-arm with below command - /usr/bin/qemu-system-aarch64 -cpu host,aarch64=off -machine virt-2.10,accel=kvm -nographic -net nic,model=virtio,macaddr=BA:DD:AD:CC:09:04 -net tap -m 2048 -monitor none -kernel zImage --append "console=ttyAMA0 root=/dev/vda rw" -hda rpb-console-image-lkft-am57xx-evm-20201022181203-3085.rootfs.ext4 -m 4096 -smp 2 -nographic - After the mount rootfs - the systemd gets stuck > > I'll try to poke at this more, but LMK if you have any ideas.

Fixed later by "scm: fix a typo in put_cmsg()" Can you trace put_cmsg() and check that systemd passes an aligned control buffer ? Kernel was indeed able to handle arbitrary alignment, but why the application would force slow copyout() (alignment mismatch between source/destination buffers) is quite strange. > > on the latest linux next tags i have to revert two commits. > "scm: fix a typo in put_cmsg()" > "scm: optimize put_cmsg()" > > Reported-by: Naresh Kamboju <naresh.kamboju@linaro.org> > > -- > Linaro LKFT > https://lkft.linaro.org
