Bug#1137216: Subject: Re: Bug#1137216: systemd-ssh-generator does not create sshd-vsock.socket during boot

[JP]

since I’ve just hit this myself on ec2 earlier today, here’s a workaround incase anyone needs it until a fixed build is uploaded

systemd-ssh-generator(8)[0] documents parameters that can be set to steer this. I’ve tested this to work on ec2

example:

```
echo ‘GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="$GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX systemd.ssh_listen=22”’ >> /etc/default/grub
update-grub
```

a subsequent reboot results in working ssh:

> Aug 19 23:28:27 sshdebug systemd[1]: Listening on sshd-extra.socket - OpenSSH Server  Socket (systemd-ssh-generator, [::]:22).

`systemd-ssh-generator` still fails on the vsock check as before, but ssh does appear to reliably persist working through both `systemctl daemon-reload` and a reboot
