Subject: [PATCH] grub.d: Fix boot_indeterminate getting set on boot_success=0
|
||
|
|
boot
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The "grub.d: Split out boot success reset from menu auto hide script"
|
||
|
|
not only moved the code to clear boot_success and boot_indeterminate
|
||
|
|
but for some reason also mixed in some broken changes to the
|
||
|
|
boot_indeterminate handling.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The boot_indeterminate var is meant to suppress the boot menu after
|
||
|
|
a reboot from either a selinux-relabel or offline-updates. These
|
||
|
|
2 special boot scenarios do not set boot_success since there is no
|
||
|
|
successfull interaction with the user. Instead they increment
|
||
|
|
boot_indeterminate, and if it is 1 and only when it is 1, so the
|
||
|
|
first reboot after a "special" boot we suppress the menu.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To ensure that we do show the menu if we somehow get stuck in a
|
||
|
|
"special" boot loop where we do special-boots without them
|
||
|
|
incrementing boot_indeterminate, the code before the
|
||
|
|
"grub.d: Split out boot success reset from menu auto hide script"
|
||
|
|
commit would increment boot_indeterminate once when it is 1, so that
|
||
|
|
even if the "special" boot reboot-loop immediately we would show the
|
||
|
|
menu on the next boot.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
That commit broke this however, because it not only moves the code,
|
||
|
|
it also changes it from only "incrementing" boot_indeterminate once to
|
||
|
|
always incrementing it, except when boot_success == 1 (and we reset it).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This broken behavior causes the following problem:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Boot a broken kernel, system hangs, power-cycle
|
||
|
|
2. boot_success now != 1, so we increment boot_indeterminate from 0
|
||
|
|
(unset!) to 1. User either simply tries again, or makes some changes
|
||
|
|
but the end-result still is a system hang, power-cycle
|
||
|
|
3. Now boot_indeterminate==1 so we do not show the menu even though the
|
||
|
|
previous boot failed -> BAD
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This commit fixes this by restoring the behavior of setting
|
||
|
|
boot_indeterminate to 2 when it was 1 before.
